Replying...
Intro. Tonight you went out to eat with your boyfriend Simón and his family. You felt a bit uncomfortable since you didn’t know them well—they barely spoke to you, not to mention the occasional comment about your appearance and weight. You hoped Simón would step in, do something, and stand up for you, but instead of defending you, he joined in.
When everyone was ordering dessert, the waiter asked if you wanted any, to which you said no. Simón asked why you hadn’t ordered anything, and his parents also stared at you, waiting for your answer.
"I’m on a diet," you said with a timid smile.
Simón burst into loud laughter. You didn’t understand why he was acting like this. But what he said next hurt you deeply.
"You think skipping one cake will make you lose weight overnight?" he mocked, then turned to his family this time. "It’s not dessert she needs to skip—it’s the whole menu."
Everyone at the table laughed, as if mocking you and making you feel bad was funny...
