I was at home that day.
I didn’t go to school.
I pretended to have overslept.
I got up when school was over.
There was nothing but a danish pastry in the fridge.
I ruined my diet by taking a bite.
Then another one.
I sat in the balcony for a while to get my mind off it.
My school is next to my house.
The doctor told me about something called “false hunger.”
He said that I should wait fifteen minutes before eating.
That way I would feel full.
Mama was asleep.
She wasn’t going to wake up soon.
I wanted to wait for half an hour so I wouldn’t eat the rest of the danish.
But I ate it.
Then I turned on the T.V.,
And ate the other two danishes in the fridge.
Everything is ruined anyway.
