Losing weight when you are at home- A microtale


Mom : Do you wanna have something?
Me : No, mom. I'm not hungry.
(...I continue to look into the screen of my laptop).
Mom : Are you sure? 
Me : (in a rather weary tone) Yes mom! It's hardly 10 minutes since I had my lunch! Don't ask me again! Please. 

(Mom walks away in silence). 
All of a sudden..

Extremely delicious and succulent gulabjamuns floating in a bowl of viscous sugary syrup arrive at the table.

Me : (eyeballs following the bowl as she conveyed it from the kitchen to the table right in front of me. We both exchanged looks.... it was a moment of complete silence!) 

"Errr... Mom...Or may be I should recheck my tummy once again. I think there is still some space in there". 
(*Sheepish grin*).

Well.. You know who won! Moms are moms! 

Me, Mom and Food..
The viscious circle once again.
