Do they notice? Can they see what she's doing to herself, To become Perfect?
Her mind is overwhelming her with thoughts like: "Is that a whole bite of food?" "Wow, packing on the calories." "Why can't you be skinny?" "Why the hell are you so **** fat!?" "Wow, you're really letting yourself go."
So she puts it down and nibbles instead. Each day decreasing her meal size. And no one notices, oh but she does.
She looks into the mirror and stares at her body.... She smiles at her ribcage poking out, At her hips bulging unnaturally. "I'm finally perfect," she says, "I can finally stop doing this and eat."
Then she's slapped back into her reality. "Are you kidding me?!" "Look at those fatty thighs!" "And oh that tummy has got to go!" "That needs to be changed immediately!"
So she continues with her ways. Just needing to be Perfect. But do they notice? .....Did they ever?......
