Warning: Has to do with Eating Disorders, not really for kiddies or weak at heart!
Anything For You-Prologue.
~*~*~
Helga Pataki sits at her desk in her homeroom class at P.S. 118. She lets a sigh escape as the stares at the man of her dreams.
Arnold.
He only sits a few desks in front of her to the right. For some strange reason she wished he'd turn around and look at her, and smile. But, he was too busy looking at that girl…Lila.
Lila was perfect, just like Olga, her older…sister.
Helga sighed once more this time loud enough for Mr. Simmons to stop teaching to ask her what's wrong. Helga just shook her head saying she was fine, but she was not. Mr. Simmons stared at her for a few seconds more, trying to see if he should believe her or not, but he just shrugged it off and continued teaching class.
As soon as she heard Mr. Simmons start talking once again about 'Life in Stories," Helga started staring at Arnold again.
'Oh, Arnold why can't you see that I love you?'
She knew the answer to that, it was because she was a bully, since that day long ago when she became a bully her relationship with Arnold changed.
She was mean to him, he ignored her.
Another reason was she wasn't like, Ruth, Olga, or…Lila….
She wasn't perfect,
'How can I make you love me Arnold? How can I become perfect?'
She bent over a bit to the side to open her pink backpack, which was laying at the side of her desk. Taking out a clean sheet of notebook paper and a sheet of paper she started jotting down the ways Ruth, Olga, and Lila were perfect:
Ruth: Thin, smart, pretty, tall, and nice.
Olga: Nice, thin, smart, pretty, nice, sophisticated, great smile, smart, smart and smart.
Lila: happy, sweet, kind, smart, pretty, neat, and thin.
Helga bit on the eraser of her pencil, 'Well, they share, nice, pretty and…'
Thin.
Why hadn't she seen it before?
She looked down at her body, pinched her side.
Skin.
Fat,
She was fat.
That's why Arnold couldn't like her, it wasn't because of the way she acted, it was because of the way she looked. 'I'm fat…' she thought.
"Miss. Pataki?" She looked up to see Mr. Simmons looking down on her with worried eyes.
"Helga, would you like to go to the bathroom? Are you feeling sick? Would you rather go to the nurse?"
Helga shook her head, "No, the bathroom will be fine." She then stood out of her seat, and exit the room, worried eyes followed her.
~*~*~
At the end of school, many kids asked is she was feeling well. She lied and said yes. But she wasn't. Once she had gotten to the bathroom she seen the 'real' her, the 'fat' her.
The only way she could be perfect and get Arnold was to become thin.
Once at home, she greeted her mother hello and ran up the stairs to her room. Once there, to shut the door and locked it.
Opening her backpack she jumped on the bed and took out some magazines. She had gotten the magazines while she was walking home, she didn't know why, but she just went into the shop picked up a few, paid for them and let. It seemed like her brain was on autopiolt.
She took out the magazine, 'Beautiful and Young,' flipping through the magazine she landed on an article 'The BOLD Model TRUTH!' The article was about how models stay so thin- the truth of how they stayed so thin.
"… Most of the model's you see in magazines are airbrushed. Airbrushed, is a kind of artificial look, done but the art editor. Others have had surgery, or have an eating disorder to stay thin. An eating Disorder is bulimia or anorexia. Bulimia is the binge and purge technique and anorexia is the non-eating technique. Both of these Eating Disorders are life threatening…"
Thin…Eating Disorder…
Those were the only words running through Helga head.
Bulimia…Anorexia…
Thin…
The only words, she didn't read the dangers of theses disorders, she just read the 'good' effect, which was…
Thinness.
