Default Re: Talk to Transformer

My father didn't eat at all, even when I was a kid. But when I told my mother about his diet, she said, "My son is so brave. I have never seen a man eat so little!" My mother made me feel that I had no responsibility for my own body. The food she fed me was just food. It did not matter what I ate. I just ate, and I ate to live.

On my mother's advice, I joined the army. It was in a rural area. We were in a big compound, with lots of soldiers and equipment. But there was no one who ever asked us what we were eating.

During one of my patrol in the area, I was sitting on a truck. A soldier got down and sat next to me.

"Where are you going?" he asked.

"I am going to the market," I said. "I want to __________."

"You mean you're going to buy a bag of rice?" he asked. "You will not survive long in the army."

"No, no, I am not," I replied. "I have just come back from the market. They give me bags of rice for free. I bought only one bag. I have rice on my head and my hands, so I will not die in the army."

The soldier was shocked.
