*flashback 2 years ago*

"Mom? Mom! Wake up!" I screamed with anxiety at her unmoving body, thinking she was dead. Like a sudden reflex, my mum sat up, her doe like eyes stared at me in a daze. She had obviously been drinking. She was wasted on the couch like there was no tomorrow. Disappointment and relief washed over me and it was from then on, I realized I had to be the one to provide for my dysfunctional family.

*flashback over*

Should I do this? It is risky, very risky and tempting. I might lose my body shape! But that tub of ice cream was luring me to taste its delicious goodness! What could I do? Suddenly, a new found confidence in my self-esteem overtook me and I ran hastily to get the dessert and gave a tip to the cashier and dashed out of the mini mart.

Casually walking down the street back home, I opened the tub and used a complementary spoon I kept in my pocket and gulping down half of the ice cream. As I was too busy letting myself devour in this awesomeness, I didn't notice the fine looking lad walking towards me at a fast pace and we knocked each other making me fall on him, unlike most romantic scenes, I was in a weird position, with legs dangling in the air and half of my body on the sidewalk and half on him adding the melted ice cream all over the place, you could see it was really, an awkward moment. Cue the troll face.

I quickly stood up, cleaned myself and took the left over ice cream in the tub, I'm not about to let it go to waste no way. Not daring to say anything to the guy.  I know I should apologize but that pissed off look in his face made me wanna pee in my pants. Hyperventilating, I stood up with wobbly legs and was about to scurry away when he angrily called out, "Hey! You come back! You can't just leave after what you've done!"
