Fat Girl Love Problems

Chapter Four

Question of the day: I thought we start next week?       

I woke up early today. Odd right? Well anyway I still can't believe I joined a gym. Gosh I though I was going to have a mini heart attack. What scares me the most are our personal trainers.

What if I got a mean one? Oh my! What if I cry? Because I am indeed emotional. What if she offends me and we get into a fight and she put a restraining order on me and the-

   "Brooke? Come on we have to go to the mall and go shopping! For gym clothes of course." Leah yells and pounds on my door.

   "Ugh Lee can't I get a break? Away from you?" I whisper to myself the last part. I don't want her to know that spending 24/7 is pretty tiring.

   "You do know that the membership starts tomorrow right?"

What? Tomorrow? Sessions? Trainer? Oh my...

   "Okay I'm up! I'm up!" I rush to the bathroom and do my hygiene.

***************

   "So what cha going to buy Brookie? Don't get yoga pants. Get clothes that you know you'll be comfortable in." Leah suggest.

   "Nice to see you stopped by Ms. This Is The First Time I Come To this Store." A voice said behind me. From the look Leah is giving me I'm guessing its that one guy. What's his name? Zeke? Zavier? Zack? Zayden? That's it Zayden!

   "You two know each other?" asked Leah. She looks so confused its funny.

   "Umm no-"

   "Ouch. That hurt." Zayden put a hand over his heart. "We do indeed. Anyway do you need help with anything? You umm..." He trailed of not knowing my name.

   "We do indeed know each other." I mock him. "I'm Brooke and this is Leah. Where are the sweatpants? I forgot."

   "Right corner." I nod and drag Leah to the corner.

   "He's a hottie Brooke!" Leah squealed. "With his-" and then she started describing him like I didn't just see him a few moments ago. "He's so into you." I gave her a glare. "He looked at me once. Just once. He was giving you all his attention." She continues.

   "Yeah. He's so into me. I'm such a beauty I attract the male species." I say sarcastically.

   "Don't be so hard on yourself babe. Oooo look at that shirt," Leah said pointing to a neon shirt.

This is going to be a long day.

***************

   "Will this be all?" asked the cashier. Giving Leah an attitude. Puh-lease! Do your job right woman. At least smile.

   "Yes." Leah replied not noticing her attitude.

   "Here you go. Have a nice day." Does she ever smile? She looks done with life. Not that I'm judging I was done with life once my mother started getting abused.

   "Hey Brooke!" I turned around to find that Zayden was the one who shouted my name.

   "Yesssz..." I trail of not knowing what he wants.

   "Oh umm you dropped something." He picks up a paper I didn't know I had, let alone drop it. I take the paper anyway shove it in my pocket and said good-bye.

***************

   "Oh my God! That was pure genius!" Leah exclaims while I look at the number written down.

Yes, he gave me his numero.

   "It was corny. What if its a fake number?" I respond.

   "Come on don't think that! In fact you should text him now to see if its fake."

 I should. But I didn't.

I take out my phone punch in the number and save it as a contact. I'll find out if its his or not. But not now.
