Y/n POV

Love, such a strange emotion in itself. It can make you feel different emotions at the same time.

For people, it's just outer facade of attraction that they fall in love with. That lust and physical intimacy is all what they see. When the most important thing is, the soul that captures one's heart.

I didn't used to believe in love. For me, it was just a chemical reaction of hormones that made people lose there senses and that's what they call to fall in love.

When the effect of these hormones wore off, people came to there sense and realized that they don't feel that love anymore with that person. That person is not the right one for them.

I was lying in my bed, thinking about what Irene did today. I wasn't going to insult her like that but she crossed the limits.

I thought maybe, maybe she changed. After all, it's been several years but no, she has to bring up my past to them, which they already know, except Jennie. But, I know Jennie is not like her, she I'll understand me and she did and I am grateful for that.

I was a chubby child from the beginning and for my looks.....I would say I was kind of average....I guess. I struggled a lot because of my weight since middle school, but it didn't stopped me from doing anything. I was cheerful, funny had a lot of friends and a fun life.

And as for Irene, she was the most beautiful girl of our school and my bully. She was a transfer student and came in the first year of high school. She was such a bitch.

She made fun of my appearance, falsely framed me of stealing and even tried to turn my friends against me but fortunately that didn't happened. All her tries were in vain. But those words of her did badly bruised my confidence, my self respect.

" Look who came, the ugly hippo"

"Why don't you stop eating and die."

" Get out of my way you pig "

" Go and take your huge self out of here"

"Even the eyeliner won't make your eyes look pretty, fat bitch"

"Go and clean the ground, cause that's what the likes of you do"

All those words made there way back to my memories lane and I was feeling so bad about myself.

While growing up, I didn't ever considered myself to be the main character of the story. I thought I was just a side character that is meant to help others. I never thought that someone out there can like me or even have a crush on me.

I always looked up to other girls but imagining myself to be romantically involved with someone, was out of question for me. Maybe, my weight being my biggest insecurity. Yeah, I think it was.
