—Short announcement, hehehe.

So I'll rewrite the story 'My Brothers' Loves Me'. So there'll be a few changes also: including the title and the story, everything will be changed. So have a good day!

•••

It was summer back in June 1, 2011. Supposedly, kids like me should be outside, playing with those kids, but I didn't want to go and have fun. Because of them, I turned into an introvert person. No one would believe that a 12 years old kid would become an introvert, even my parents can't believe as well. They missed the lovely smile of their son, its jolly atmosphere that'll really brighten your gloomy day, it's all gone just because of one reason.

Bully.

They always bullied me for I was fat, very fat, and worse of that is because I'm gay, so they called me faggot. Even though they bullied me, I still want to go outside and play, that was before. Because of a one incident that'd almost took my life in a blink of an eye changed everything on me. My parents reported it to the police but they ignored it and said that it was just 'for fun' only that'd went too far.

Since that day, I cut ties to all of my friends and my trust issues grew. But in all of them, there's only one who didn't accepted the fact that I'm unfriending him and keeps visiting our house. Arth.

He didn't give up on me even though he doesn't see me everyday he comes to my house. We still communicate but there's a boundary which is the door. I often gets annoyed at him why he's still at my house even though I cut ties with him. All throughout the summer, that's what happens.

I didn't came out of my room, and my parents understand it. They just brought me food in my room without even seeing me what's with my health condition. I also decided that day that I'll minimize my eating habits. My family still had communication to me through phone but I forbid them to talk to me through video call. Even though I locked myself inside my room all summer, I still take care of myself. Of course I still apply my personal hygiene. I don't even stare at myself in the mirror since I hid all the mirror inside my room cause I had at least 3 mirrors in my room. I like mirrors before but now, they're just a scary thing that'll recall my past. I also cried in my room and stopped after a month.

My lockdown stopped after I entered 1st year of highschool. Of course my parents enrolled me since I told them that I'm ready to go out and face all the criticism. It made me realize that no matter what's your size nor gender, you must face them and show them who's the boss, that's what I learned in my Summer Lockdown.

Today was the first day of highschool, and Arth didn't come home to visit me this morning, maybe he forgot or I don't know. To me, Arth is just a stranger. He's my neighbor and we didn't become close friends at all, but I don't know why he didn't give up on me even though we aren't that close. Yes, he's one of my childhood friends but our relationship isn't the same as others. We often see each other at all to be honest.

I decided to take a bath and brush my teeth before finally going out of my room. I sang in the shower room to lighten up the atmosphere. Of course, I have a nice voice so why would I not sing? Not all my friends heard me singing, even Arth. After spending 10 minutes in the bathroom: 7 minutes bath and 3 minutes of brushing my teeth: I decided to wear the clothes I haven't wear before which is a white jacket since it's a little cold outside, and a fitted jeans. At first, I was curious because my jacket was oversized, but I didn't mind that at all and wear my white shoes. I breathed heavily as I grabbed the door knob.

"You can do this Keefe." I said to myself before I unlocked it and pulled the door open.

As I open the door, the first thing I saw is Arth who's about to knock on my door. He was dumbfounded as he saw me, as if he saw a ghost, a fat ghost to be precise.

"K-keefe? Is this you?" He blurted out that made me confuse. Heh, what does he mean that is it me? Is he crazy or something?

"What do you mean?" I asked him and placed my hands in my hips, "Of course you dummy, this is me, Fat Faggot Keefe! There's nothing changed in me dummy." I said and rolled my eyes when I saw him got shocked all of a sudden.

"I thought you wouldn't come and see me. Anyways, let's go downstairs, mom is waiting." I said to him, grabbed his right hand and pulled him. He followed me immediately and felt his hands shaking as if there's something on me. Tsk.

We both went downstairs and go to the kitchen. As soon as we arrive, my mom and dad's has dropped in shocked that made me more confused. I looked at them confusingly at didn't stopped myself to speak, "What in the name of cow is wrong with you guys?"

"H-huh? You don't know why we're shocked?" Mom asked rather confused that made me roll my eyes.

"As if I'll act dumb." I uttered sarcastically, "Of course I don't know. I mean, would I even ask if what's happening to you if I knew it already?" I added as I pursed my lips, preventing my mouth to speak cause I want to hear them.

"Honey, look at yourself in the mirror, and also, wear your eyeglasses." She ordered as I sighed and followed what Mom said.

If your ever wondering why I have to wear glasses, it's because my eyes is a little blurry, but I still can see other stuffs clear. I took my glasses in the shelf since I placed it here before I locked myself in my room. I didn't wear my glasses the whole summer because I thought that it'll just be broken.

As I wear it, I went to the living room and glare at myself in the mirror, completely shocked. I stare at myself in the mirror and admire my... beauty.

I wasn't fat anymore, as well as my face, instead my body was slim that made me look feminine. My face, with my blue eyes, made me look angelic. And my hair suits me, unlike before that I looked like an overweight coconut. All I can say is,

"Wow." I uttered as I touched my face and smiled like a crazy man. I can't believe that I had a glow up. I didn't expected this, I DIDN'T SEE THIS COMING!

"Great Achievement Keefe." My dad proudly said and hugged me tightly. My mom smiled with a teary eyes before she joined dad and hugged me as well. My parents know that I'm gay and they accepted me because being gay is what am I. It's a part of discovering myself, and that isn't a problem because it shows that I'm getting mature.

Now, let's see what'll be the reaction of the people who bullied me to death.

—
What Keefe mentioned 'bullied me to death', it's a literal word, because as what it said in the chapter, he almost died because of people making fun of him. Anyways, that's all for today and have a great day!
