"Are you sure? I've actually gained a few pounds." Julian helped Stella with the bag and said jokingly, "But you certainly looked chubbier now. You must be eating well at Keegan's house."

Stella suddenly felt like smacking this kid. With a stern face, she said, "Shut up if you don't have anything nice to say. I'm curvy, unlike a skeleton like you. Your limbs are so thin that they make you look weak. I doubt any girl would be interested in you."
