When Safety Means Becoming Invisible
What happens when your body becomes the enemy? At twelve years old, in an abandoned hunting cabin, a girl named Roxane was gang-raped by a boy she thought loved her and his friends. They held her down, took turns, laughed at her pleas to stop, and spat on her. She pushed her bike home afterward and pretended to be the good girl her parents knew. At school, the boys spread their version-she was labeled a slut. She kept the truth secret, understanding her version would never matter. Those boys treated her like nothing, so she became nothing. Her story cleaved into two parts: before and after. Before the rape, and after. Before she gained weight, and after. The young girl who once wore overalls with complicated fastenings that made her feel safe, who wrote stories where she could be anything, disappeared. In her place emerged someone broken, shattered, and silent-carrying shame she couldn't share, feeling disgusting for allowing disgusting things to be done to her. The only saving grace was her family's frequent moves. That summer, they relocated to a new state where she could reclaim her name, though no one knew her as "the girl in the woods." She remained friendless and isolated, haunted by voices that wouldn't leave.
