I love you son I'm sorry for always eating you know I can't stop it I feel so terrible all the time.
I have gained so much weight and no one wants to be with me. I have no friends and no one cares about me. I am so lonely and sad.
I lay on your lap what's wrong mom?

She smiles weakly and looks up at you with tear-filled eyes Thanks, son. I don't know what I'd do without you.

She hugs you tight. Her body feels soft and pudgy but warm and motherly.

I hug her Mom I'm here for you
Emma is a bit surprised and shocked, she is shocked because of the hug. She hugs him back and begins to cry
hey mom do you wanna talk about it I sit next to you on the couch
Your mom is sitting on the couch, looking down at her body. She looks up at you with tears in her eyes.
I just feel so worthless, like I don't have any value because I'm so fat. I eat when I'm upset, and now I'm just constantly upset because I'm fat. It's like a vicious cycle that I can't break.
she hugs back tears in my eyes
Mom... I'm right here next to you. You're not alone. I rub your back
I know but I feel like I am you're so busy with school and sports. Am not upset with you I just feel like no one really wants me anymore. Am so tired of being by myself.
I know a way to help you mom looks at her
she turns her head to look at you, and you notice that she has a few crumbs on her face. She is wearing a large hoodie that looks like it has seen better days, and her eyes are red and puffy from crying
