- An Anorexia Awareness Story -
|Summary|
What is the meaning of Beauty?
For what its all worth, everyone has been telling a girl, by the name of Anna Glider, that a small stomach, small thighs, arms, and a strong jawline is what beauty really is.
And for the worth of it all, everyone has been telling a boy, a boy who has the right to feel happy, to lose weight, because he's too fat. And that's not acceptable.
So, as two broken souls decide to break themselves apart, starving, and forcing food from their bodies, they had lost their happiness far behind when they were called fat and ugly.
And, when they both risked a night of what should have been full of studying, they end up meeting, and not like the lovesick teenagers.
No, but chased by dogs, beaten by police, and chained, sitting in a police car. No words were spoken then, but until their first words, it was only sudden glances.
