EXCERPT:
Bonnie stifled a
sigh. He was doing it again. Staring at her, as he had been every day that
week. She was on a fortnight’s training course through work. She was the only
one from her office who’d been sent. As a result, she knew no one and ended up
sitting alone in the college’s cafeteria at lunchtimes. She’d had a couple of invites
from kindly people also on her course, but she’d turned them down. It wasn’t
that she was being rude or anti-social, she just hated people to see her eat.
She was a big girl—that was putting it politely—and when people saw her eat,
she could feel the judgment rolling off them in waves, the thoughts that she
was fat because she ate so much.
It wasn’t true. About what she ate, that was. She was fat, and there was no
denying it. But it certainly wasn’t her doing. She’d been born to large
parents, and despite a healthy diet and plenty of exercise, she was still
overweight. All she ever managed to shift was a pound or two here and there,
and that was hardly noticeable, particularly on a woman her size. She kept at
it, though, resigned to being a larger lady, but determined not to get any
bigger.
Because she’d
always been big, she was used to the snide comments, the dirty and derisive
looks, the open stares. So it didn’t upset her any more, but she still got
irritated when people simply gawped at her. Surely one glance was enough for
them to ascertain that yes, she was a shapely girl, and then move on. In most
cases it was, particularly if she glared at the person in question. But not
with this guy. She was sure he was trying to be subtle, because he often averted
his gaze as she trained hers on him. But even if he’d looked away, she could
tell by the position of his head and body that he’d been peeking at her. Again.
Now, on day
seven, she was almost at boiling point. What the hell was his problem? Had no
one ever told him it was rude to stare? She was on the verge of doing just
that.
Eating her lunch
was an unpleasant task, knowing she was being observed. If she hadn’t been so
damn hungry, she’d have left it. But she’d been running late that morning and
had committed that mortal sin—missing breakfast. So her chicken salad—with no
dressing—was absolutely necessary to avoid making herself feel ill, or passing
out, so she devoured every last morsel. She ate faster than she normally would,
not because she was being greedy, but because the sooner she finished eating,
the sooner she’d stop feeling so damn self-conscious about the guy across the
room watching her.
She decided to
give him one last chance. When she’d finished her lunch, she’d drink her carton
of apple juice, then sit for a few seconds, doing nothing. If he continued to
look at her, she was going to stomp over there and give him what for. If he
didn’t, then she’d carry on with life and do her best to forget about him and
his rudeness.
Deep down, she
knew she was going to have to go over and say something to him. After seven
days, he wasn’t going to suddenly amend his habits. She was just being a bit of
a wimp, really, hoping to find some way of getting out of confrontation,
because she didn’t like it, not one bit, and it was absolutely a last resort.
Unfortunately, she couldn’t think of a single other way of stopping him from
doing it. Perhaps she could put up a sign in front of her saying “Please stop
staring at me.” But if he couldn’t take the hint when she’d glared at him, he
wouldn’t take any notice of a piece of paper.
Several minutes
later, her salad was gone and she moved onto her drink. With a sinking feeling
in her gut, she saw he was just as interested in her now as he had been when
she’d been eating. Damn, confrontation it was then.
Draining the
carton, she gathered her plate, cutlery and other rubbish onto her tray, stood
up and slid it onto the rack nearest her. Then she returned to her table,
grabbed her bag, pulled in a deep breath through her nostrils and marched over
to the Peeping Tom. She slid out the chair opposite him and sat down on it.
