Chapter 2: Practically skeletal
WARNING: THIS CHAPTER CONTAINS SEXUAL REFERENCES
Heidi POV:
The rustling from downstairs wakes me up. I check my watch. It's literally 8am on a Saturday that something woke me up! I lurch out of bed and tip-toe towards the staircase. I only hear dad's voice, but he keeps saying Rita, so I know he's with that beast. I scuttle down the stairs and peer down at the living room. The sight makes me gag. Dad's chucking 50-dollar notes at this Rita woman whilst she dances around the pole that leads to Jackson's bedroom naked. Jackson uses a rope to get up to his room and slides down the pole when he wakes up. I pluck up the courage to walk in and say, "Jackson will wake up soon if you're not careful."
Rita the avox grabs a tea-towel and covers up her genitals and boobs, whilst dad stuffs the wedge of notes that he had in his hand back into his trousers that were on the floor.
"Heidi!" he smiles, "This is Rita Konnah, my assistant at work. She was showing me her new routine for the midnight show tonight."
"Then why are you wearing a condom? And why have you got HER lipstick all over YOUR mouth?"
Dad and Rita look stunned.
"Dad, if I catch you having sex with this girl again I'll tell mom, and then you'll regret it!"
I strut back upstairs, feeling dizzy with pride but nauseous because I just saw dad naked. I peer into mom's room and cry a little, because she's just sleeping soundly, not knowing that dad's literally impregnating this woman downstairs. At last I flop into my bed, and I fall asleep instantly…
Darcy POV:
I've been looking in the mirror for hours now. I'm just so ugly and fat! Mom keeps saying that I'm "practically skeletal" and that my face is "perfect and angelic" but I'm not. She's just being supportive because she's my mom, and that's what moms do. They support their children and cherish them. All of my family say I'm killing myself, but I'm not at all! I'm finally losing weight very slowly, and I'll finally be in all the magazines! I strike a pose now, but I look ridiculously flabby, and I sit back on my bed. I'll never, ever be beautiful! I'll never have a husband, and children, because who wants a large wife or a chubby mom? Nobody! I'm the most unperfect person in this whole family and I always will be! The only way I can think of to make me skinny now is to exercise all day and only eat a grape every 2 hours. I'll finally be beautiful!..
