This is my short story with 10 chosen words. By chance, the words reminded me of the novel Jemima J of Jane Green. The main character was really fat and she tried her best to lose weight and had her love. Yeah, mine was inspired by this. Ok, here we go.
BEAUTY AND THE FATTY
She used
to be so plump.
She feasted
on fast food and other kinds of butter, chocolate. OMG, She could eat all day.
When she was upset about a movie, she ate. When her mood cheered up, she ate to
celebrate. Her life seemed to be so great until one day. She was rejected in a year-end
party of her company. She could not find a partner for herself. Why? Because
she was fat. Fat. All the men in this place were dying for some girl who
possessed a slim body and oval face. No matter how kind she was, how helpful
she was, and even how smart she was. She was still not the type that men
looking for. We preferred someone to dance with me, not to eat, they said. Slim
has something
of worth. Really.
That
evening, while she was strolling on her way home, something caught
her sight. A Fitness Center. Unconsciously, she entered the place. Look at
that. All of the girls with their perfect body gathered in this place. The curve
shaped beautifully in the small of their back. Their firmed thighs
were wandering in front of her eyes. The nails were shining with perfect pedicure.
They must have been drooled by tons of men with no doubt, she
thought. She felt bewildered and wobbled as if there were an earthquake near here.
After some seconds getting back to her consciousness, she stood up, went to the
register desk and applied for a 6 – month gym course. She wanted to dance; she
wanted to be a part of the party.
She would do this, not for anyone, for her.
Just for her.
I'm looking forward to your next stories.
