The mirror reflected a face she detested - a face her family deemed ugly, a body they ridiculed as fat. For as long as she could remember, she was the outcast, the one they mocked and belittled. Her parent's cruel words still echoed in her mind: "You're worthless, a burden, a shame to our family." The pain and shame had become too much to bear. One fateful night, she packed a small bag and fled, leaving behind the only home she knew. Tears streaming down her face as she vanished into the darkness, determined to escape the tóxic love that had suffocated her for so long. As she disappeared into the unknown, she whispered a vow to herself... "I'll prove them wrong, I'll make them regret the day they ever hurt me." Now the question is will she prove them wrong? Can she make those that hurt her pay? Who is she? Her name is Cookie Gregory, second daughter of Mr. And Mrs. Lukeson Gregory. She's the ugly child of the family. Her two sisters, Jennifer and Maria are always adored by their parents but she never gets any word of praises, it's as though she doesn't even exist in the family. She might as well dîê and no one will notice, her sister always pick on her and her mother often calls her piggy, she was neglect so bad that she tried committing suÎcide and her family said it's for the BEST
Chapter 1 THE OUTCAST
Cookie dragged her long suitcase down the dark street of Vegas, tears streaming down her cheeks.
The street light eliminating the whole environment, it was already past 1 in the morning so she couldn't see in the street.
She was scared, really scared of leaving home by this time of the day but when she looks back, she always remembers her sister's hurtful words.
"You can just jump over the bridge, Cookie, I can even fry you and still be hungry cos you're a waste of air, space and food," her sister Jennifer had said to her while laughing.
"She's a foodie, can't you do without eating Cookie? Mother shouldn't have brought you home cos you're worthless and useless to us," her little sister Maria has mocked her.
"You don't belong here, go away you fat pig," Jennifer shoved at her, pushing her down.
"Who's gonna marry you now pig?" Maria asked, making a pitiful face.

She swip away her tears, her heart broken in too many unrepairable pieces, how could her own family treat her like that?
Was it her fault that she's fat? Did she eat that much? Was it her fault that she's ugly? God created her so why is he letting them treat her like this?
"Wow, isn't today my lucky day," she heard a guy voice then glance back instantly without delay.
It was then that she noticed two guys trailing her, she had no idea they have been following her till now.
She flenched a little bit trying to maintain her composure so she won't show her fears.
"You look fat and ugly but I bet your pûssy won't be the same or is it?" The same guy said again, his left hand hugging his balls while his right hand was rubbing his jaw.
He had a cocky smile on her lips, imagining how he was gonna take her for the night.
"Gimme that purse first, what's in there?" The second thug asked, moving closer.
she flenched away instantly.
"Stay away from me!" She screamed fearfully but her screams of fear didn't go far.
How could it when it was just 1 in the morning, everyone is probably getting their night rest so why would they bother about some scream?
The first guy grabbed her roughly, her chest slammed hard against his solid chest and she let out a whimper.
Gwad, why is she cursed? What did she ever do? Can she ever be happy? She thought her life was going to be well at least but now she's being sèxually harassed.
They tossed her to the ground, shredding her clothes into pieces, she struggled with them, trying to get away but could she get away from two grown men?
"Please don't hurt me, I don't have money, silver nor Gold, I only have my fat self," she sobbed bitterly.
The one on top of her succeeded in shredding her blouse then grabbing her bra....
Suddenly, a flying kick from nowhere landed at the guys chest, knocking him backwards and off her.
The second guy position himself, charging at whoever it was the disrupt their perfect timing, he punched the unknown but the person ducked, twisting itself and giving him a back kick.
He staggered forward but the person grabbed his hand then pulled him back, punching him twice and busting his lips
"Leave him alone loser!" The first guy yelled desperately.
The unknown released the first guy and he dropped with a thud, shifting backwards on his bûtt, seeing that he has given the unknown a good distance, he got up and took to his heels together with his partner.
The unknown clapped both hands as though cleaning them, she squat before Cookie who's shaking like a jellyfish on the ground, clutching her brêâst tightly.
"Please don't hurt me, I will go home I promise," she said fearfully, wishing and hoping the person won't bèát the shît out of her.
"I'm Blue," the person who happens to be a girl said, offering handshake.
Scared, Cookie didn't move, she was still shaking, staring from her face to her palm.
Blue Chuckle then removed her face mask, turns out she was coming back from a mission when she saw them.
She'd already drove past with her bike but for some unknown reasons she reversed and went to help the girl.
"You hungry?" Blue asked, watching her closely.
Cookie didn't reply so Blue went over and picked up her suitcase, she tied it to the back of her bike then glance at Cookie when she was done.
"Come, I will buy you food, you look like you need one....."
"Oh, yeah, tell me how much of a foodie I am!" Cookie suddenly snapped tearfully, remembering everything her family said to her and how they treated her.
She'd thought the stranger was her savior but it turns out the stranger was mocking her too, how stupid of her to think she's worth someone's love and kindness.
She's just an ugly fat girl and that's what she will always be.
"Hey, I dunno for you but I need food, okay?" Blue said.
Cookie sniffed, she's not going anywhere with a stranger but then again where will she go? Was the person harmful yet she saved her?
She looks like a criminal with her mask and gwad! Is that a gun?! What is she?
"Get on I don't have all day," Blue urged but Cookie didn't move, Blue held her jaw, eying Cookie while also thinking of what to do
Should she just leave her there or take her?
"Look, I get that you're scared but once we get food and we're done eating then you can continue your journey, deal?" Blue asked, offering her hand.
Cookie hesitated
Finally she got on the bike and blue drove off.
Cookie is seen in a restaurant packing foods into her mouth as though the food was gonna run if she didn't slow down.
Blue narrowed her gaze watching as she devour the food, many thoughts running through her mind.
What exactly is a young girl doing outside by this time of the night? What about her parents? Don't she have relatives or something?
"Hey, what's Wrong?" Blue asked casually.
Cookie she's about stuffing another food in her mouth paused, staring at the stranger.
Well, she was still a stranger? But She saved her fûçking life!
"Tell me anything, I promise you won't regret it," Blue added, resting both hands on the table.
Cookie didn't say a word, the girl was about her age.
Blue nodded.
"It's alright if you don't wanna talk, I'm running late so I gotta leave you here...." She paused, watching as fears flashed through Cookies eyes.
"Not to worry, the manger is a good friend of mine so I get you covered, you can continue your journey to wherever you're going tomorrow but as of now, I gotta go," Blue said And stood, she took her helmet which was resting on the next sit beside her.
Cookie didn't know what to do or say, she just watched Blue exit the room and immediately Blue left, she noticed all eyes on her.
When the girl was around it was as though everyone was afraid of her but now she's gone, all eyes were on her.
She grabbed her pause dashing out of the restaurant in full speed, scared to dèâth.
She rather stay with the savior stranger than this bunch of people.
She met Blue when she's about to drive off.
"Please, take me with you, I don't wanna go home," she pleaded tearfully, wishing and hoping Blue will just agree.
A part of her wasn't in support of the idea but another part of her didn't want the strange savior to go.
