The Grass Eater

While standing near the kitchen window and eating cereals with low fat milk she recalled the days she weighed around 245 pounds. Her arms and legs were enormously big, her face was choking in creases of fat and walking behind her on the street was not a pleasant sight. ´All right, maybe I am overreacting, it wasn´t that terrible´, she thought to herself. Still, she could hear people´s comments : ´Oh God, look at them, that´s extremely unhealthy, and those poor kids´. She knew that something had to be done about that but she couldn´t make the first step. But one day she heard that her cousin, who was only 43 died of a sudden heart attack and that a main cause was the fact she was too overweight. Then she finally decided that her family´s habits were going to change.

Now, a year later, their kitchen looks quite different. Their fridge is full of organic vegetables, there is a basket full of fruits on the table and near the window there is a tray with wheatgrass and a brand new manual wheatgrass juicer. They all significantly lost weight and everything is perfect now, but sometimes is hard. Suddenly, she hears a knock on the door and hurries to open it. ´Hello, neighbour! What can I do for you? ´ Well, I think there might be a leek in your kitchen, because there´s water in my basement. ´ OK, we haven´t noticed anything, why don´t you come in and take a look?´

The neighbour is in the kitchen, looking around. ´Nice, nice´ he says. He came somewhere from the Balkans and maybe it looks luxurious to him. ´And what´s this? ´, he asks about the wheatgrass juicer, ´I didn´t know they still make them, it´s for grinding meat, right? ´

´ Not really, it´s for making juice, you see this grass in the tray? You put it in the juicer and it makes nice and healthy juice!´ ´Are you kidding me? Why don´t you go on some meadow and graze instead? Ha ha ha ´. She looks down and says nothing and the neighbour shouts: ´ Right, let´s find that leak!´
