Chapter 2

Author: Fiery Cow
All my classmates praised her for being both beautiful and kind-hearted.

“Callista is going out of her way to help you, Amy. Don’t be so ungrateful.”

My hands were trembling with anger.

Amid Callista’s continuous taunts, I swallowed my anger and scrambled to find a way to salvage the situation.

[That’s not me. That’s our class belle, Callista.]

[Sorry, I accidentally sent the wrong photo. But that works out, because I wanted you to know I’m way prettier than her anyway.]

I went ahead and sent the best photo I had of myself from back then.

This time, Austin did not reply right away.

I waited for a long time, feeling anxious by the second.

Then he called me.

“Baby, you’re so slim and elegant. You’re literally my dream girl. You took my breath away.

“You really are prettier than the class belle. I can’t wait to see you!”

He sounded so excited, making me blush.

After pondering for a moment, I responded cautiously, “Let’s meet on the first day of the official school term, after summer break.”

I had three months to lose all the weight.

On the other end of the phone, Austin squealed excitedly, “Baby, you finally agreed to meet me! Don’t worry, I’m going to give you a ton of gifts.”

As soon as he hung up, he transferred five hundred thousand dollars to me and sent me a message.

[My gorgeous girl deserves to have a closet full of beautiful clothes and bags.]

[Get whatever you want for yourself. I’ll send you more when you run out.]

I was taken aback for a second, then could not help smiling sweetly.

The floating words had not lied to me. He was truly a lover boy who loved throwing money around.

Callista became jealous when she saw me accept the money.

She gritted her teeth and sneered, “Amy, you seriously think an edited photo is going to fool him?

“Things will end very badly for you if he sees how obese you are!”

The floating words looked down on me.

[Whatever. When Austin gets disappointed in Amy, Callista can still swoop in and steal the show.]

[That fat pig will make Callista look like an angel by comparison. Any guy with eyes would fall for her instantly, let alone Austin.]

[Let her enjoy her little moment. The cockier she gets now, the worse she’s going to humiliate herself when everything falls apart.]

Their contemptuous comments only made me more determined.

I took the money Austin had given me and signed up for private training sessions with the best coach at the best gym.

My only goal was to return to my best form, the one I had three years ago, within three months.

My coach, Brock Hartman, sternly informed me, “Starting now, I will be in charge of what you eat and drink.

“If you want to hit your goal in three months, you need to come in for three hours every single day. Can you handle that?”

I nodded vigorously.

Austin had shown me such sincerity. I could not let him down.

Even more so, I could not let down the version of myself that had long been ostracized and mocked.

So, on the very first day, Brock pushed me so hard that I broke down crying.

As I dragged my aching body back home, the class group chat started buzzing nonstop.

Out of curiosity, I clicked on it.

It turned out Callista had taken a photo of me crying at the gym and posted it.

[Breaking news! Amy started dieting and working out so she can meet her online boyfriend in person!]

[Guys, how long do you think she’s going to last?]

    [She literally posted her whole weight loss journey for everyone to see. What’s your excuse now, Callista?][You’re just bitter that Amy landed a rich boyfriend, so you tried to drag her down. What a bad woman.][Amy is genuinely gorgeous inside and out. She got fit herself, and she still takes the time to help everyone else the right way.]I could not help but notice how fake people were.After that, every time I walked into class, everyone rushed to sit next to me. Some people even got into arguments over who got to sit closest to me.When I walked on campus, people would constantly try to ask for my number or shove drinks and snacks into my hands.When I went to the cafeteria, someone would pay for my meal.Even when the library was completely packed, someone would always offer me their seat.Still, I stayed true to who I was and faced everything with calmness.I studied when I needed to study and went on dates when it was time to date.The friends I kept close were still

    Callista was fuming.She posted all kinds of malicious speculations about me on the forum.[There’s no way a person can lose so much weight naturally within three months.][My guess is she either got gastric surgery or took some illegal weight-loss drugs. No way she dropped that much just from working out.][Amy is literally wrecking her body just to get a rich boyfriend. That kind of approach is seriously messed up.][She should be called out for it. What if other girls start copying her and doing the same dangerous things?]For a while, everyone eagerly chimed in with their own opinions.[Do you actually have proof she used shortcuts? She looks healthy to me. She clearly lost it through exercise.][If a person is not pretty to begin with, getting skinny won’t fix that. This just proves Amy was always a natural beauty. Maybe she was just fat for fun.][Callista, aren’t you just bitter about no longer being the center of attention?]Some also sided with Callista.[Now everyo

    I thought they would argue first. Instead, they looked at each other, then put on fawning expressions and voluntarily offered to transfer money to me.“Amy, I was a total jerk before, I admit it. Here’s a thousand dollars as my apology.”“Please don’t hold it against me...”One of them even slapped himself twice in front of me and eagerly handed me a drink.“I don’t even remember what I said back then. Anyway, take this two thousand dollars as my way of making it up to you. I was completely blind. I never thought you’d turn out this gorgeous after losing weight.”“From now on, anything you need, just tell me. I’ll come running.”After they happily sent the money, they stuck around me like eager little followers.Seeing everyone crowd around me, Callista turned green with envy.“Can you all have some self-respect? It’s not like she’s the first pretty girl you’ve ever seen!“For all we know, Amy had some surgery done or something. She could bounce right back to being fat tomor

    Callista acted as if she had just discovered my biggest weakness, and she laughed at me with total smugness.“See? I told you I wasn’t lying!“The only liar here from start to finish is Amy.”She was still acting all high and mighty. She used to look down on me with pure disgust, but at the moment, she just looked jealous and bitter.“Amy, don’t act like losing weight and getting pretty erases your past.“Those two-hundred-pound photos are your permanent baggage. You’re never going to live it down.”I did my best to ignore her outburst, then leaned in close to Austin and confessed in a soft, sincere voice.“If you remember, I told you that my parents passed away three years ago. I fell into a deep depression.“That’s when I gained all the weight. Back then, food was the only thing that made me feel even a little bit better.“On top of that, I was stressed about the SATs. I ate nonstop. The next thing I knew, I was two hundred pounds, hormones a wreck, and breaking out everyw

    Everyone looked bewildered. “Huh? Isn’t Amy that famous fat pig from the literature department? I’ve seen her before, and she does not look like this.”“Dude, quit joking. There’s no way this gorgeous girl is Amy.”Callista’s jaw dropped as she scanned me from head to toe.She even pulled up my old ugly photos and tried hard to compare them with the current me.“Im-Impossible... She’s not Amy.“Austin, you’ve never even seen what Amy really looks like. There’s absolutely no way she’s her.”Austin’s expression darkened. “Are you really out here questioning whether I can recognize my own girlfriend or not?”He raised my hand with the bracelet and showed everyone the engraving on the inside.“Look closely. I gave her this bracelet, and it has our initials carved on the inside. How could I possibly be wrong?”After he finished speaking, he anxiously turned to me for confirmation.“I’m not wrong, am I? You are my Amy, right?”I chuckled lightly and nodded.“Do you want me to

    Austin caught his breath. He glanced at the bracelet in disbelief.After he examined it carefully, his eyes lit up. He gulped and stared at my face in a daze.We had not even exchanged a single word.His reaction alone was enough to prove that all the pain and sweat I had endured over the past three months had been worth it. The barrage of words appeared confused as well. [Wait... who’s this gorgeous girl? Is she trying to steal Callista’s man or something?][Did the rich boy’s Porsche attract some competition? Otherwise, why would this random beauty just show up out of nowhere?][Hold on... why does this hot girl’s face look kind of familiar? I swear we know her from somewhere...]I smiled and reached out my hand, about to formally greet Austin.Callista, however, stepped forward warily and pushed me aside.“Excuse me, who exactly are you looking for? This guy doesn’t go to our school. Are you sure you’ve got the right person?”Acting as if guarding her own trophy, she
