14. Food
Ororo doesn't dwell on the fact that some foods have become sort of 'Comfort Food' instead of just food to her. She hates that she craves those certain comfort foods when she's sad, angry, frustrated, stressed, or just on her period.
She doesn't like the fact that stuffing spoonful's of vanilla ice cream, can keep her from crying, or take away all her hurt and anger. But she eats it to stop herself from crying, and anyone from noticing.
It makes her train more, and sleep even less at night; just to make sure she doesn't gain any extra weight. She takes another bite of her recently baked chocolate-chip cookies, and ignores the hurt echoing in her heart.
The silence stands out when the sky flickers to black, and thunder cackles loudly in the air. And Ororo sighs as she thinks bitterly 'It's gonna be a long night'. Before tightening her robe, and heading back to her room.
She doesn't cry, but on the inside she's slowly breaking.
