Pt.1

Emina slammed the bathroom door shut and broke down in the locker room cubicles. "Why are they so mean!? Aren't they supposed to be my friends?" she thought to herself. The tears had started slowly running down her cheek. It was warm and moved slowly down her face, dripping onto the floor.

Emina was a normal girl. She used to be on the swimming team getting great results every meet. She was athletic, healthy and happy. But 5 months ago Emina's grandma whom Emina was very close with, got very I'll and passed away not far after. Emina was devastated, her world had been turned upside down in a matter of seconds. Emina had not left her room in days. Her mother had tried to talk some sense into her but the walls between them was blocking every single word. Emina had not eaten for three days and in some weird way it almost... numbed the feeling. So she stuck with that. Every morning she would just take her sandwich with her, telling her mother that she would eat it in the bus. But we all know that she did not eat it. Lunch in school was easy to skip. Her friends, Elsa, Carl and Saga whom also are on the swimming team had started to question her strange behaviour. But Emina always replied with some stupid excuse.

Not eating had really changed both Emina's appearance and behaviour. 5 months ago Emina was very fit. She stood proudly at 185cm and weighed 73 kilograms. She was lean with good muscle tone all around her body from swimming. Now Emina's body had deteriorated. She had lost all her muscle mass and dropped 19 kilos in only 5 months. She was also a lot more tired and her previous fighting mind set was not there anymore. She had also stopped showing up to practice and had sometimes skipped school. She had kept her changes hidden form her friends with baggy clothing. But today she had to show them because of the annual swimming test with the school. Her friends or actually no one in the class reacted well to her changes. When she excited the locker room the room went quiet. Giggling could be heard and a lot of whispers. That is when her former friend Carl broke the silence.
"Looks like your getting ready for a trip to Ethiopia or something, tell me when are you leaving?" he could not keep a straight face threw the whole sentence and when he finished the whole class started laughing hysterically.

Emina heard the locker room door open. She heard that the person had trainers on them and instantly knew that it was her physical education teacher Miss White. She knocked on the cubicle and started to speak.
