Her Life Starts to Spin out of Control

Colin moved hastily to support Sophia. As Dorothy looked to be running out of energy, Colin had wanted to help. He didn't expect that Payne would come so quickly to her aid.

Sophia shifted in Colin's arms awkwardly, her hand covering her injured leg. It was her heart that hurt the most.

Payne and Sophia had met when they were only 16 years old. Even then, there had been the bullies, constantly mocking her figure.

Colin didn't care about her weight though. Even as the petite-framed Sophia tipped the scales at 160 pounds. Payne would hold her in his arms and whisper words of love in her ears. Even from a young age, he had promised to marry her.

In 11th grade, the couple began formally dating.

In College the couple was forced apart, with Payne attending College in D City, while Sophia stayed in A Country, patiently awaiting his return.

Like all young lovers, she wrote him daily. Often skipping class to visit him. When he would fly out for the semester, she would watch his plane leaving the runway, tears in her eyes.

Payne's college classmates would make fun of him. "She's huge, " they would say, "a real whale!. Shouldn't she go on a diet or something? How do your arms even fit around her?"

Payne would reply calmly, simply, "I just like full women."

...

But Sophia wasn't the only girl in Payne's life. In College, Payne met Dorothy, the daughter of a wealthy family. Young and passionate, she quickly fell for him.

Dorothy made the trip to D City frequently. But Sophia trusted Payne. After all, he had always been fiercely loyal to her.

But when Sophia was a sophomore… One day Dorothy came to flaunt her relationship with Payne. This new development put pressure on the Lo Family.

Only a few days after, Dorothy added insult to injury, and did something unbelievable.

Things turned violent when Dorothy accidentally stabbed a maidservant during a fight with Sophia. Payne had arrived just in time to see the scene unfold.

Seeing him, Dorothy immediately threw the knife away.

Dorothy holding the knife, Payne testified against
