It's Saturday which means I get up when I want yay! But I think because my body is so used to getting up early I woke up 30mins ago at 8:00 in the fucking morning

and I've tried to go back to sleep because I have no reason to be awake right now, but I have given up on trying to go back to sleep because it wasn't working.
Now I'm scrolling through instagram.

I finally left my bed it is now 9:30 and I could smell the breakfast Ila was cooking downstairs and decided I needed that in my body.

I walked into the bathroom to shower and there is a tall body mirror in there I never thought to look in it because I knew what it would lead to but as I walked past to get into the shower I caught a glimpse of my naked body and then turned and fully faced the mirror.

That's when I noticed my stomach was becoming a bit rounder and my thighs were getting wider along with my waist.

As I stare deeper into the mirror the memories start coming back thing I've buried deep in the back of my mind.

(Incoming back story!)

"Aneessa you should really cut down I just bought you this dress and already your too big for it. I can't keep buying you new clothes I'm telling you now lose the weight, do you like the way you look? Because I bet all you friends bully you and talk behind your back, don't you wanna look like them nice and slim. Really think about it who would want you looking like that I mean even I'm embarrassed."

My mom said. She always said things like this I mean it's mostly my fault she just wants what's best for me.

She's not wrong I am bigger than everyone else and I don't have any friends due to people not wanting to be friends with the big girl and all, the only friend I have is my best friend Maria who has been with me since day one.

"Mom I'm sorry please, I promise I'll do better don't be mad."

I replied I didn't like when my mom was mad because that's when she said all the hurtful things. Things I know already due to people at school and myself to be honest.

"Delilah don't say that to her, she is not too big she is just right, and who wouldn't want her my beautiful girl."

My dad came in and replied to my mom pulling me into a tight hug. I loved my dad more that anything he never said any of the things others did and always told me I was just right and beautiful the way I am.

Though I knew he was just saying it because he was my dad, In reality they were all right I was ugly and disgusting that's something I just couldn't change.

(End of flashbacks)

all the memories came flooding back and my chest started getting tight and i was struggling the catch my breath that's when the voices started, telling me they were right and that I was ugly and no one would want me and I should be ashamed to think I was any better.
