Perfect?

by xxcatiexcatxx

Girls are just expected to be perfect. We are expected to have perfect breasts, a perfect figure, and a beautiful face. And girls that don’t have that get stepped on and rejected. Is it really worth it? Thought Alana, as she stared at herself in the mirror. Of course, she was fat and ugly in her own mind. How she envied her friend Laurie, who was perfectly skinny, her stomach flat as a board, even though she would eat piles of food.
Of course, after that she would puke.
Alana just couldn’t bring herself to do it. She didn’t know that other girls much…rounder…than she was envied her. But she of course was grossed out by her nonexistant fatness. And here she was, leaning over the toilet bowl in her bathroom, shoving her fingers down her throat.
She puked.
