Short

Lexi woke up to the sound of construction work outside her window. "Dammit." She thought as she started to move from her bed. As her feet hit the floor, the legs that were rolled up on her pants dropped and swayed a crossed her ankles. Dragging herself a crossed the carpeted floor to her bathroom she immediately began thinking about what she would wear for the day. "If I wear the flannel will it be to masculine? But if I wear my blue skirt it'll be too short." Her thoughts lead her to the bathroom where she immediately showered, being sure to shave her legs and arms. After drying off she went straight to her makeup drawers and began to apply as much as she could to cover her tired eyes, wrinkles and the scar that sat on her left cheek that she received when she and her brother go into a fight in the second grade. After finishing her routines of makeup, clothes, breakfast and the last cup of coffee before heading out the door Lexi took one last look in the mirror that sat by her front door. She looked at herself up and down and almost didn't recognize herself. This morning she was a normal looking young woman, her stomach was pudgy and her thighs had stretch marks. Lexi now was thin looking, she had made herself to look like a woman that anyone would die to be and any man would want but, she couldn't wait to come home and become herself again, sweatpants and all.
