Rosalinda stared at the ocean,lost in some thoughts,she wondered why life could be so unfair to her, and how she will cope where they are moving to and then she sighed.
She was moving to another city with her family, her brother and her parents,her older sister was an exception because she have to move near her company to make it easier for her ,this will be the second time they were moving because of her parents' business,she doesn't even have friends to miss but will surely miss their house, everytime they were about to leave,she will go to a quiet place and think of how the people there will think of her especially her classmates-to-be ,she always thought that's the biggest of her problems.
Though she's so brilliant but they just don't seem to look past her looks and body. She looked chubby and it makes her face look puffed but somehow she still have a pretty face, people say she looks too big for a student in 9th grade. Everytime they say that to her,she will want to relieve her hanger. Some relieve their anger through what they enjoy doing,but there are two things she's good at, studying and what,food, lots of food.
Her classmates would tease her calling her chubby or chubs and sometimes she really thought of losing some weight but then her classmates will happen and then she will relieve anger,so she ended up being the same and after some time she ended up giving up and sworn she won't try to lose weight anymore. 'Why can't anyone be supportive of me,I won't lose weight anymore, maybe they will leave me alone' she will say,but she was wrong,it only grew worse day by day,two things won't just stop,her getting fat and criticism.
' I wonder what people will think of me where we are moving to,will they accept me?,or will they...
ring ring ring...
The sound of her phone ringing evaded her thoughts , it was her sister,
'Hey Rose,what are you still doing out,come back now before mom and dad gets back'
'Okay, I'll be on my way '
' Be careful and don't take the wrong bus,okay?
' Thanks I won't, I'll be home in few minutes' Rosalinda said softly and her sister kept the call.
She made her way to the bus station and waited for her bus to come,she checked the time and it was only 6:30 pm. Finally, her bus came and she hopped in ,she calculated she will be home by 7 pm with the trekking to her house and almost true to her words, she got home few minutes to 7 pm.
When she got home,her parents aren't home yet, only her siblings know what she does whenever they are moving,so she got lucky again she's not caught by her parents especially her mom ,they had started packing four days ago,they will leave the next day and that made her worry more,she dropped her bag , took a cup of water and joined her siblings in the living room.
Mia and Levi ,her siblings on the other hand are so good looking, people say they took after their father with having good looks and that makes her wonder if she got hers from their mother,her mother is quite the opposite of her husband,her looks was average and they say Rosalinda got her body structure from her,she wondered how their parents come to marry each other.
She sometimes hope she shouldn't be the one to be so unlucky but what could she do?
Mia a twenty two years old lady is the eldest and works as a designer in a company in the city and Levi, he's in 12th grade and he's seventeen,he doesn't like studying and always complained about how nothing seems to enter his head.He just couldn't cope with his books and studying but he's loved by people in school, girls of course, because of his looks. Instead of studying, he's thinking of being a model and just skip college,but their parents must not hear of that or he's dead. They were not rich nor poor,just average people enough to send their children to school and have basic things in life.
Their parents, Henry and Stella are sometimes strict but are loving towards their children ,Stella would sometimes help Rosalinda when she tries to lose weight.
' Lucky you Mia, you are not coming with us ' Levi complained.
' It's not like I won't come to visit you, don't sulk, don't worry I'll spend my days off with you guys ' Mia said smiling.
' I'll surely miss this house,this better be the last time we're moving' Rosalinda said and made a face.
'It better be,but no problem I know I'll be popular their too and I don't think it'll be hard to make friend there'Levi said.
oops
'Rose ,I'm sorry,it slipped off' Levi apologized and made a guilty face.
'It's fine' she lied, it's totally not fine.
'But speak for yourself next time'she added.
' I'm truly sorry I didn't mean it like that'He can see clearly she's faking it.
' I'm fine now ' Rosalinda said, she's totally fine now.
Mia just sigh as she has nothing to say to what just happened.She thought of what she could say ' I'm going to the kitchen to start making dinner'.
'Finally' Levi laughed and Rosalinda just smiled.
