my dad's boss is an obnoxious eater.

he chews with his mouth open and smells of ham.
his little daughter, though only 6, is a genuine sweetheart and tries to make small talk. i enjoy her company despite our age difference.

obnoxious boss begins to talk whilst chewing his food. he tells us about wanting to get his daughter into modelling, so he's very careful about giving her the right food to eat. she's only 6, so it's the most pathetic thing i've heard.

i look down at my thighs and sigh before taking a bite of the juicy chicken pie that was served to us.

i've been avoiding mom's eye ever since we got in the car but i could see her trying to figure me out.

but she'd never guess that i was just tired of the words "pretty" and "ugly" alike.
