Chapter 2

I've had this charade for three weeks. I would nibble on pieces of lettuce but never in public. The occasional cracker as a reward. I wanted collarbones. I wanted ribs. I wanted Jack. I had ran about 6 kilometers around the block to shed those extra couple of pounds as well.

We were training for our tournament with the black dragons. "Okay guys the tournament is in three hours here's what we're going to do!" Rudy huddled us up into a circle. We were all wearing our Gi's so I twisted my belt trying to get it to stay up. "Okay sparring partners, Milton and Eddie you guys are first the winner verses Jerry than Jack and Kim." He said to us as Milton and Eddie assumed their positions.

I still couldn't get my belt to stay up. Jack walked over to me. "Here let me help." He grabbed my belt and I bit my lip. "Where is your waist?" He asked.

"I'm pretty sure it's there." I said sarcastically rolling my at him.

"No Kim I'm serious you're really thin." I smiled.

"Thank yo-"

"that's not a compliment." He cut me off, "Kim are you eating right?" He asked worried. I rolled my eyes again.

"You aren't my boyfriend stop questioning everything I do in life. I tried walking away but he grabbed my wrist tight. I cried out softly in pain.

"That hurts? Kim you're sick!" He flipped out.

"Get off me!" I screamed so loud Jerry and Milton had stopped their match and everyone was staring at us.

I started crying and glared at him. His face softened and his grip loosened. "Kim I'm so-" He tried apologizing but I didn't let him finish and ran out of the dojo.

I sat on my bed rubbing my wrist Jack had grabbed. It was getting dangerously thin I couldn't even wear bracelets anymore. I heard my mum call out for dinner. "Kim dinner!" I dreaded the times she said things of that nature, "Kimmy it's lunch!" "Kim time for breakfast!" I hid my meals in my serviettes.

I walked down stairs in my baggy jeans and over sized hoodie. I saw my older brother Joe, my mother, my father and... Jack? "One of your little friends popped by dear I forgot to tell you he's so polite!" Mum gestured to Jack.

"Mum!" Joe said mocking my sarcastic tone and eye rolls, "He's not my little friend! Jeez new people don't say little friends they say boyfriends!" He said sarcastically. Jack and mum laughed. I death stared Joe but he ruffled my hair and chuckled too himself.

For dinner mum had made lasagna and garlic bread. All I could think was all the fat and calories that was in one serving of that greasy substance. I developed knots in my stomach that was similar to the feelings I had in the dojo earlier today.

"Kimmy why don't you have anything on your plate?" Mum asked staring at me with her wide smile and eyebrows raised.

"I-I'm not hungry." I lied. My stomach was twisting around again. All I could focus on was my heart beat. "We had a pizza party at practice today so I had enough there." I lied again. We had that last week.

Jack stopped and stared at me a little bit angrily but mostly concerned. I gave him a pleading look hoping he would cover for me. I stood up and walked into the kitchen for a glass of water. When I walked back out I overheard Jack whispering to my family.

"I'm worried about her that's why I came I haven't seen her eat in weeks and she's been lying like she did just then-" I walked into the dining room as Jack immediately stopped talking.

Everyone stared at me. I breathed in a sharp breathed and sighed. "What the hell are you telling my family?" I yelled at him. "You're making up rumors about me now?" I snapped at him. This was a game to him. He wanted to get me in trouble. He wanted to send me away to a hospital when I'm not even sick!

"I just want to help you-"

I cut him off, "You aren't helping me Jack! I don't know what you think I'm doing to myself but whatever it is you should really keep it too yourself!" I screeched at him And ran into the living room and started crying on the couch. I listened to them talking.

"Why is she being so moody?" Joe asked.

"She's just trying to play with our heads. I know this is exactly how my older sister acted when she had this disease." I didn't know Jack had a sister I always thought he was an only child.

"And what disease would this be?" My dad asked.

"It's called Anorexia nervosa. It's where they convince themselves they can't eat and they're too fat. Is Kim excersising a lot?"

"Yes she's going out for a run really early in the mornings. She usually doesn't come back until right before school." My mum explained to them. I started crying. Jack had them eating off his hands! He wanted them to think I had this disease. "But Kim isn't fat... She's beautiful." My mum questioned.

She was only saying that because I was her daughter. I knew I was fat. She just didn't want to hurt my feelings.

"It's not always about being fat. Sometimes it's about control. She wants to control something in her life. I know Kim is far from fat. She's one of the skinniest people I know and you wonder why beautiful people like her do this to themselves but it's actually really common." Jack thought I was beautiful? Had he even seen me!

"How did your stop it?" Joe asked worried.

"She didn't." He said grimly, "She died last year that's why we moved here too many memories. Anorexia is deadly." He spat out the last part, "She saw a phychiatrist. It helped. They sent her too a recovery centre. But she was old enough to leave on her own choice. She lost so much hair she was freezing. She was so thin it was scary to look at her. Coming home every. . Praying that you don't walk in and see her dead on the floor. There's also another eating disorder that anorexic people usually have it's called bulimia. She made herself throw up until she was literally coughing up blood. She had this disease for 4 years! It isn't a phase Kim won't get over it... She'll literally starve herself to death just like my sister if she doesn't get help soon."

I heard my mothers shaky voice, "B-B-But how could she hide this from us?" She said I could tell she was crying. I was too. Jack had gone too far now. This wasn't about Jack anymore! Whatever this is it's taking over me! It's brainwashing me!

"Look under her baggy clothes... Heck I didn't notice until today when I couldn't fit her belt on her Gi because she literally had no waist line. She's smart."

I cried until the tears made my vision blurry. I squeezed my eyes tight trying to stop my tears. No use I still had hot tears burning down my cheeks. I chewed my nails as I heard the terrible silence. It cut through my like a dagger.

I closed my eyes trying too sleep. My mind went blank and the world turned off.
