Billie POV “What?” The trail of Anna’s hair hung down her neck. “You are traveling with your grandma?” I nodded. She was just processing the information, so I could see she was shocked. I wasn’t surprised, but it was sudden for me, and I hadn’t had time to tell her last night since she was with me at the hospital, and I could bet she was tired. When I finally told her, she was both shocked and happy. “As happy as I am, I’m also sad,” she said. “It’s going to be boring without you.” I understood. I would also miss her; I’d be gone for three months. I was wondering how I would cope without her. Truthfully, Anna had always kept me company since the time I met her; she was a good friend, and I could count on her. I wanted to tell her about MN and Valentine. I didn’t want to hide anything from her—she was the only one on my side. She really knew me. So, I decided to share. “Look, Anna, I have to tell you something.” I said, and she turned to face me with a serious look, studying m

Ann POV “Did you tell her?” Her voice echoed from the other end of the room. I shook my head. “No, I think she's too caught up in her plans to go to Miami,” I replied, shooting a look at the blonde girl.“Why did you have to approach her? You caused all this,” I added.“What, caused?” Valentine laughed. “That I warned her about the threats surrounding her?”“This was none of your concern. And what about him? Why does he care for her as if she owes him something? Or is she just bait? You think I don't know what he’s planning?” I growled at her, but she merely chuckled.“Oh, you see, Mrs. Ann, or whatever you call yourself, Billie needs help, and that’s what I provided—help. I also prepared a place for her. Do you like that she was threatened by her friends and drugged at the party? Do you like that?” I flinched at the mention of being drugged. She knew exactly what would rile me up or make me go silent, but I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction.“She is my friend. Stay away from her.

Billie POV Days passed quickly, and before I knew it, I was on my way to Miami. As I stepped off the plane and into Miami International Airport, the humid air enveloped me like a warm hug. The sounds of salsa music and lively chatter filled my ears, a stark contrast to the quiet, small-town life I was used to. Back home, the airport is a tiny terminal with a handful of gates and a view of cornfields. Miami's airport, on the other hand, is a bustling hub with sleek glass walls, tropical plants, and people from all walks of life rushing to their next destinations. The vibrant atmosphere was infectious, and I felt a thrill of excitement as I navigated through the crowded concourse. Everything about this place exuded energy and excitement—so different from my quiet rural town.We took a cab to Lane, where Grandma lives. It had been years since I had visited, and I couldn't remember much, but I could say Miami was the biggest city I had ever been to. Unlike my small town, Miami had tall s

Billie POV I gulped down my toast and drank my coffee. The rich aroma hit me like it was brand new. This was the most delicious coffee I had tasted in a while. It had been two days since I arrived in Miami, and I could honestly say everything was going well. The view from my grandmother's porch was beautiful, and the atmosphere was vibrant. For once, I understood how it felt when someone decided to change their environment. Perhaps this was what my mom was afraid of—me not coming back home. But I still had unfinished business back home. I mean, unfinished business—only I understood, and I carried that weight in my stomach. It was going to be tough.In the past two days, I had tried calling Ann, but my calls wouldn’t go through. I kept getting her voicemail, and it seemed she wasn't checking it. I wondered what had happened. It was strange; I felt like I must have done something wrong, or maybe she lost her phone. But I couldn't think of anything I had done. Maybe she was just busy, I

Betty POV The moment she got thrown on the floor, I couldn't take it anymore. Of course, I had heard about her, but over the last few days that she had been here, I had gotten to know her. She was mistreated and tossed aside, just like I had been, like all of us here who were bullied by our peers because of our weight. I had been through hell and back; my friends abandoned me, my best friend did too, and even our neighbors stopped talking to me. I felt all alone.Before the break, I didn't even go to school; I was used to sitting at home. My mom tried to convince me to speak with the teachers about the bullying I faced from my classmates, but I stopped her. I didn’t want that because I knew it would only double the bullying. My mom didn’t understand me; no one in my family did, except for Grandma McCarthy. She was the only one who truly got it. She told me that her grandchildren were also like me. Though they were twins, one was the epitome of beauty while the other was the big, fat,

Billie POV The next few days were awful. I had to stick to a strict diet, training, and exercise regimen. I had never pushed myself like this before, but I knew that I would eventually start seeing results. However, the other contestants were making it difficult for me. They hurled insults that were much more painful than the names I had been called at home. Thankfully, Betty was the only one by my side. She stayed quiet whenever I was attacked, but she stuck by me whenever I was being bullied. I couldn't blame her; she was scared and had faced many challenges like mine, but she hadn't overcome them yet. As for me, I still had my battles to fight, and it took me some time to start making progress.Savannah, our instructor, was kind and beautiful, but she also had her backstory, just like the rest of us. She was once chubby like us, and after undergoing this training, she chose to become a teacher and help others. I didn't think I would follow the same path, especially since Savannah

Billie POV As I stood there, I could already feel the sweat forming on my brow, and the tall man walking towards me only intensified my discomfort. He was handsome with perfectly defined muscles, a slight mustache, and tousled hair. His physique reminded me of Nate's, but Nate was undeniably more attractive.The man wore a long leather jacket and black trousers, and his smile was striking, giving him a model-like appearance. I couldn't help but wonder, Who is this man? When he reached me, he asked, “Are you looking for someone?” His voice was deep and directed at me with an assertive tone. Though I didn’t know him, being lost in the middle of nowhere and the midst of a race, I felt I had no choice but to respond. Perhaps he could help me find the person I was looking for.“Yeah, have you seen a girl who looks like me, but…” I gestured with my hand to indicate my size for him to see. His eyes widened as if he hadn’t noticed my weight before. Then he smirked. “Much larger than you, ri

Billie POV Being the chubby, unattractive, and unluckiest girl in school wasn’t easy. It often felt like hell. “Look at her,” sneered one of the girls in the corner. “She’s one of the ugliest girls in our year,” she told her friends, who all snickered and shifted their gaze toward me, mumbling among themselves. I knew better; it wasn’t the first time I had heard such comments. I just walked on, my head buried in my palm as I quickened my pace. She wasn’t wrong, I thought. To be frank, what she said was the truth. I was a chubby girl, and I often felt too old for my age. I had a big stomach, and people frequently teased me about my arms being big and flabby, much like those of an older person. I weigh as much as an elephant, and I was often called that. To make matters worse, I have a birthmark on my cheek that only adds to the mocking. It felt like hell every time I walked around, hearing people talk behind my back. My mom always told me I was beautiful, but deep down, I knew

Billie POV That was it, I thought as I lay on my bed, playing with my phone. I could tell Mom was disappointed; from the way she looked and sounded, it was clear she was sad about me leaving. I never knew she had this emotional side to her. She had always been distant, but unlike my dad, she paid little attention to me. Still, that didn’t erase the past. Blake was always the favorite. Anyway, that was behind me; it had been last night since the conversation with Mom and Grandma, and I could tell they hadn’t discussed it further.Grandma was given the guest room downstairs, where she always preferred to stay, complaining about having to go up and down the house. She hated exercise. They had finally given her approval—not that she needed it anyway—to take me away.So, it was just a day before I was set to spend the holiday with Grandma in Miami, and I don’t know why, but I could feel excitement stirring inside me. It was the kind of feeling I hadn’t experienced in a long time.Ann was

Billie POV I slowly turned over in my bed as the night dragged on. The memories of the previous evening flooded my mind, especially Grandma's sudden appearance. She was never one to show up somewhere without a reason, and her visit this time was because of MN. Although I thought I had lost contact with him, it seemed he had been messaging my grandma. The chat I had seen indicated they had been in touch for a while, but I didn’t know much beyond that. It appeared he had been keeping tabs on everything I did and was aware of what was happening in my life. However, I didn’t feel anyone suspicious around me or that I was being monitored. Everyone around me just went about their daily routine of bullying me, and Ann being who she was, so how could it be so easy for someone to pry into my life and know about the incident from yesterday? He even knew about that.I sighed as I tried to recall all the new faces I had seen, but there were none. I was the only one who brought Kane with me as my
