Comment on his brother's belly
by: Unknown
"How did it get so big, so fast?" asked the boy.
"Believe it or not," Jake began. "I'm not much of an alcoholic, but pizza's all over the place in our dorm, you're a wimp if you can't eat a whole one. And fast food dollar menus are king! It's not bad having a belly, you know, it feels good not to have to worry about watching your diet or anything, you just eat and don't care. And everyone else's getting fat, too, why not join them?"
Alec didn't say anything. He poured the rest of his potato chips into his mouth.
"If you keep eating like that," said his brother. "You'll be twice my size by high school! But, hey, you might as well, you won't have to worry about your girlish figure."
He gave his brother a friendly punch on the arm.
"Boys," called his mother. "I've got Jake's favourite! Chocolate cake!"
Alec is still thinking about himself getting fat, he likes the idea, but he worries. What does he do?
