" can i have strawberry please? "
the lady smiled at the nine year old and nodded.
" sure! "
sookyung smiled and payed the lady.
" thank you! "
sookyung skipped out of the store and smiled at her ice cream.
strawberry is her favorite flavor, and this was her favorite ice cream shop.
a group of girls walked up to her and she ate her ice cream.
" hey you! "
sookyung looked up at them and smiled.
" hi! "
one of the girls smiled back at her.
" hi, i'm gyurin. "
" i'm sookyung! "
gyurin laughed and got closer to her, before taking her ice cream from out of her hands.
" hey! that's mine! give it back! "
the girl threw it on the ground and stomped on it.
" oops, my bad. "
tears welled up in sookyung's eyes as she stared at the splotch of ice cream on the ground.
" fattie, it's a good thing it happened, it's not like you needed the calories. "
sookyung sniffed as the tears fled her eyes.
" okay, s- sorry. "
sookyung said before walking away slowly.
the girls laughed at her before walking away.
it was the most traumatic moment of her life.
-⭐️-
sookyung breathed in shakily as she flattened down her dress.
it was her and minjae's first date, and he decided to go to that very ice cream shop.
sookyung thought it would be fine, but now that it's " d-day " she's terrified.
ever since that incident, sookyung had become self conscious, and formed an eating disorder that lasted seven years.
she's been eating normally for two years, but still made sure that she was very thin, so she wouldn't get bullied about it again.
sookyung took multiple deep breaths with her hands on her chest.
she looked in the mirror one last time before heading downstairs, where her date was waiting.
