Lola went to grade school with Frederick. She felt a connection with him the first moment they locked gazes. But, she avoided him. They were both different from the others. Even as a little girl, Lola knew she was strange. Her father reminded her of that as he beat her every night. In an attempt to "fit in," Lola tried to socialize with her female classmates. She wore pink bows, dressed, and giggled delightfully. The game of pretend ended in junior high school. One of the girls found Lola sifting through her vomit. From that point on, Lola stopped wearing bows and dresses. She started having sexual encounters with older boys and began performing puppet shows. Lola never forgot about Frederick.
The first day of sophomore year Lola couldn't stay away from Frederick any longer. He was was hypnotic. She walked right up to him, kissed him on the mouth, and gave him one of her homemade puppets. Frederick and Lola became inseparable. They were together for almost every minute of every day. She shared her food secret, and he seemed just as infatuated with her obsession. Once, Lola thought about telling Frederick she loved him, but she threw up instead.
On June 6th, Lola decided to make love with Frederick. She had waited patiently for this moment. The sex wasn't romantic or sweet. It wasn't in any weird or exotic spot. The only unique aspect of it was the biting. Frederick kept biting Lola. He bit hard and long, drawing blood on a few instances. After the sex, Lola felt strange. She felt like a ghost
