“Give it back!”I said trying to hold back the tears.He held it higher and the stubborn tears flowed freely and his eyes widened.
“Why are you upset?,What does the text say?”he said opening up the text to look at it.But I pushed him.
“GIVE ME MY PHONE NOW!”I screamed fuming.He lowered the phone and brought his hand to my cheek to wipe a tear“You're crying”he said in a serious yet soft tone.
“No I'm not-,just give me my phone”i grabbed my phone from his hand and walked out of the gym,Leaving him stationary.
I walked all the way home so that it would give me enough time to get rid of the tears,I don't want my mother to see them.i didn't want her to get worried.i opened the door and the minute I shut the door,my mum spoke.
“Honey is that you?”.I contemplated whether to reply or not but since I didn't want her to think it was a burglar, I replied.
“I received a message saying that you got a detention today,care to exp-”she said coming out of the kitchen and stopped talking when she saw me “Are you crying?”my mom asked inspecting my face.
“No,Mom I'll talk to you later,I'm just-tired “I said going upstairs to my room quickly and shutting the door. I slid to the ground and just stared. I didn't have any tears left to cry.
My mind was blank. I felt like my body was there but my spirit wasn't.More messages flooded my phone. I stood, put a stool in front of my closet, stood on it and placed my hand out, searching for the packet I bought a year ago.once my eyes felt the pack,I brought it down and looked at it , memories flooded my mind as I stared at the sharp set of knives that I bought a long time ago.
With anger,I tore the packet open and took out the pocket sized knife. I placed it on my arm and slit my skin open,desperately trying to remove the fat that was the cause of my pain. I cried and screamed. Instead of the fat to get out, it was blood that did.I wiped my arm and wrapped the injury with a bandage.
And that's how my days went.Ever since then,my days were filled with tears, cutting myself in different places,trying to get rid of the fat.But I acted as if everything was okay in order not to get anyone worried. I put on makeup to cover my ugliness, I wore long sleeved sweaters ,in order to cover the fresh scars, I tried to eat whenever my mom was in front of me but it wasn't easy because the food always came back up and out of my mouth.
