Relatives, strangers

The first thing they seem to notice is my figure. They tell me that I am too skinny, that I should eat more. I had eaten quite a lot when I went to their place, but it's because I have not had a homecooked meal for some time. 

 

They say I'll be ugly when I stop growing. In truth, I am not being skinny to be beautiful. It is really annoying! They tell me it's not because of dance, and I scoff, because they do not know how tough dance can be. 

 

Things like this get to me. I just avoid them, refusing to show ettiquette, because I know it's for show anyway. The only people I can really respect would be my dance instructors, but my grief for a certain loss just messed everything up.
