H O P E
I don't even want Diego to see me a in one piece swimsuit, I'm too fat.
But I have no choice.
Diego goes into a bathroom near the living room to change into a swimsuit, and Lia goes into our room's bathroom to do the same.
I put on a black one piece swimsuit with daisies on it.
I look in the mirror, examining my body with disgust.
I don't like the way this fits me.
Lia comes out of the bathroom, looking like a goddess in her bikini.
It's turquoise, and it shows off her beautiful body.
"You look great." I say.
"So do you!" Lia says.
"No, I look disgusting." I say.
"No you don't." Lia says.
"Yes I do! Look at this!" I say, and pinch at my stomach fat.
"Hope, everyone is insecure about their looks at some point in their life. I mean, I had to be hospitalized because I attempted suicide because of bullying and my anorexia. But now I'm stronger. I love myself, and that's a better way to live." Lia says.
"But you're skinny." I say.
"Come on, Hope. I'm so underweight that I had to be hospitalized because of it. You DON'T want to be underweight, believe me." I say.
"But no one wants to be fat." I say.
Lia sighs.
Diego opens the door.
"Really Diego? Pink trunks?" Lia giggles.
"It was all I packed. I didn't think I would swim at all on the trip." Diego says, and rolls his eyes.
We all laugh.
"Let's go." Lia says.
We exit the jet and walk to a pool nearby.
Unfortunately, there are a few girls there.
They turn to us.
"OMG IT'S LDSHADOWLADY'S DUAGHTER!" one of them yells.
They run up to Lia.
One girl looks at me, and gives me a bitchy look.
Ick.
She looked at your stomach and thighs.
I sprint out of the pool area, tears brimming my eyes.
These girls are so thin and pretty.
I'm so done with this life.
Everyone around me is so skinny.
L I A
"I'm glad that fat pig left." one of the girls smirks.
"HOPE!" Diego calls, and runs after Hope.
"What does her see in her?" another girl asks, and laughs.
"She's a great person." I frown.
"Maybe she seems like it, but she not. Have you seen her body?" another girl smirks.
"Uh, yes. She's not fat." I frown.
"Yes she is! Look at her! She's so overweight! Do see how much her stomach pokes out? How her thighs jiggle when she walks? HAVE YOU?" one of them screams.
I can't let them say this about Hope.
I slap the girl who said that right across the face.
The other girls look LIVID.
"YOU'RE SUCH A BITCH!" they scream as they run away.
I run back to the jet where Diego is pounding on the bathroom door.
"LET ME IN!" he screams.
"What's going on?" I ask.
"Hope's hurting herself in the bathroom!" he says.
I jiggle the doorknob, but it's locked.
"I got this." Diego says.
He kicks down the door to reveal an unconscious Hope on the floor.
We gasp.
