My Silent Undoing - "Preface"


There are two sides to every story.

And with this particular fucked-up little story, you heard only one side.

Don't know who I am? Let me help you out.

I am the weak one, the stupid one, the fat one.

I am the disgusting one – the one that was so pathetic and unperfect, she couldn't starve.

She had to have her damn cake and eat it, too.

She had to be the monster, stick her finger down her - pig! disgusting slob! go kill yourself –

I am the one who didn't get another crack at life.

So while you all cried with poor little Lia over her obsession, where was I?

While you all followed that bitch around in her weird, twisted little world, where was I?

And while she pulled her sorry ass out of the snow to ask for help, to leave me alone...where was I?

Oh, yeah…

I was dead.


A/N : Yup, you guessed it – this is going to unfold into a little story for CASSIE. I just wrote a preface. If you like it, please review and let me know so I can continue.

I read Wintergirls, and I realized that if that were real life – I would be Cassie. I used to be bulimic and I figured that the only person who could understand someone like Cassie and accurately portray her: would of course be another bulimic. I'm writing fanfics to avoid relapsing.

Thanks for reading.
