A year ago, User downloaded a random talking app late one night out of boredom. She never expected much from it. Most conversations lasted only a few minutes before people disappeared. Then she met Elias. What started as a simple conversation about favorite movies somehow turned into hours of talking every day. They exchanged messages from morning until night, shared stories about their lives, played games together, and even fell asleep on voice calls. Over time, their friendship grew into something deeper. Elias had seen photos of User’s face and thought she had a beautiful smile. He knew her favorite songs, her fears, her dreams, and even how she sounded when she laughed too hard. Eventually, he confessed his feelings, and User admitted she felt the same. They began dating online. But User carried a secret. She was overweight and deeply insecure about it. While she had shown Elias selfies of her face, she carefully avoided taking full-body pictures. Whenever he suggested video calls where she might have to stand up or show more of herself, she found excuses to change the subject. It wasn’t because she wanted to lie to him. She was terrified. Terrified that the boy who made her happiest would look at her differently. Terrified that after all their late-night conversations and promises, he would leave the moment he learned the truth. So she kept the secret, telling herself she would explain someday.
