Broken Flying Fox Scale - Short Story About Life Lessons

I had a fat body When I was in middle school and that's the time I met the closest friends of my whole life. One day I go to a new playzone in a mall with all of them. There's a weighing scale in a flying fox ride, and just for fun we check how much all of us weigh.

When it was my turn to check my weight, the scales suddenly went shut and not showing any number. All of my friends laughed, I tought they laughed about by fat condition for the first time. Makes me a little shocked because  they always being nice to me and never talk about my weight before. 

They apologized immediately if I was offended, they laughed about the funny sound that the scale made before it went off. They told me nicely that I don't have to worry about my condition and we will always be best friends.

Because of that, somehow I get motivated to do cardio exercises by myself for one whole year until I lose a lot of weight when I graduate. I don't know how much weight I have lost, but I feel my body so light and better in daily activity. 

At that time, each of my friends had focused on high school, and I was the only one who went to an expensive high school in the city. Meanwhile, all of my friends go into regular high school and that makes us never hang out anymore. 

One day, I want to know about how much weight myself but somehow I cant find weighing scale at home. I came from rich broken family, I lived alone in a small house that accompanied by two maid that only came in the morning and evening to cook and clean.

Because I want to know my weight so bad, my innocent tought brings me back to that weigh scale in the flying fox ride inside the mall. So I came to the mall alone just want to check my weigh specifically in that scale. 

I remember that I was the one who broke it but dumbly sure enough that the scale had been replaced with a new one. And I was right, the new scale was there but unfortunately,  a security guard did not allow me to use the weigh scale.

He said to me that the scale had been broken so many times because of fat people like me. I realized that even though I've lost a lot of weight I still look fat because of my big bone structure. I insisted a couple of times, but still, I'm not allowed to use it.

Since that time, I lose my motivation to keep my body healthy again. I feel a deep sorry for myself that even my closest friend that I love so much more than my parents will leave me alone. Not even a stranger allow me to prove myself.

It makes me feel so depressed because now no one understands what I've achieved. It made me close myself to forming a relationship with someone because everyone will leave someday. So I had no friends in high school. I gained more weight than before. I got hospitalized many times when I was 18.

My health condition getting worse made me fail the class and expelled from the school when I was 19. I died because of obesity not long after that.
