Is this a novel, a story, of which I have written this time I have been away, because one of the things that I've been has been to attend a writing workshop. It is the last story I wrote before the end of the workshop. I would not want it as something literal tomáseis, something happened to me so personally, is a fabricated story from my own emotions. I wrote it thinking in those people unfamiliar with the disease in first person, with the idea that they could understand a little better how this happens and how he feels there is a glut of food and then need to be purged. I do not know if I've achieved that goal. Anyone who has passed, I imagine, will understand it better. I dedicate it to Dhanaev , for the great support and love shown to me in the only two comments so far been left on my blog, and hopefully feel embraced by their words. I also dedicate it to a friend that I consider special Mandrake
. Whether it is animated or not, your ears have always been open to him to tell him and his voice, through their hands, they have been giving me encouragement and understanding. Thank you both. Thanks to all the others as you write me and / or read it. I also dedicate it to you. [You can leave your literary opinion, whether good or bad!] Marta
out of class. Were just signs of sun in the sky and the grass smelled musty. Hours earlier, en route to college, had been eating on the train. The nerves had been to buy food for the journey, once again loaded with donuts, cookies and chips. After school was carried away by firing in smooth flowing into the subway station.
nerves that had come dressed in laughter and self-confidence, loneliness now were unknown to both. The energy of these newly-minted adults bubbled and burst into laughter, kisses and goodbyes weekend.
suddenly wondered why he was there on the platform, the crowd, and why anyone accompanying or included in their plans the following day. Definitely, had left more nervous than I was, although neither she understood why. He opened the tube of potatoes on the sidewalk, waiting and once in the car continued to eat standing. His eyes, levitating above the floor, waving at times looking for the gestures of the occupants of the car. Six months ago, when there was quiet, would have smiled to see the curly hair and wore that bright girl in a ponytail, or would have been spellbound with black nail polish of that other. Not now, now looked at his hands and wondered why he ate so run down that way. I wanted to stop, close the tube and store potatoes in the bag or, better yet, throw it away, but could not control. Again to look up, witnesses, those who watched, his anxiety.
Three had to get stops, the boat was still open and the potatoes were disappearing. His hand just before launching narrowed toward the door. Out of it was as if the noise spit to the monotonous season.
wore a long skirt black, fine linen. Loved: fresh, long, black, made him at a party. I used to hold it with both hands when climbing or descending stairs. This time could only be with one. The more you grab, more was painted yellow specks. It was inevitable that if he did not step on stain also if I wanted to keep feeling princess.
enjoyed the grace of hold on the descents and ascents of those dusty tunnels, but hated the hands, accessories and tools that fit insatiable stain your favorite skirt fat, the substance rubbed and rubbed more time to see disappear down the drain, with a sigh of relief.
stairways, tunnels and staircases. Took the boat back open and your mouth full. Chewed as fast as you would have thought he was preparing for a contest. For his skill, he would have won. With four potato in his hand, lifted her face and went to the mouth just in time a woman raised his arm in greeting, giving off a pungent smell of sweat that revealed their hard day. The potatoes were already on the palate, the perfume in your nose. It was easy to distinguish the smell of each. His pituitary, however, perceived it, was the result of the numerous outbursts that had suffered this week. His senses were disrupted. The mouth began to ache, swollen by salt and the crunch of the potatoes. The donuts will provoke caries but does not hurt when you chew. He still had some.
sweet She did not salty, the anxiety that engulfed the senses disconnected from your brain and just set them apart. His hands, insensitive, only knew starting the potatoes thin cardboard boat.
continued the journey home, eating on the bus. Luckily only two seats were occupied, did not like that observed eating. When the cardboard tube was empty, his hands were revived and wanted to feel the soft threads of chocolate and sugar. It was a big box, but only two remained, the rest had eaten in the afternoon, between races to get to the right. Luckily he was coming home. The chocolate had melted and stained lips, teeth and nails. He wanted to lick your fingers but he was two stops away from yours. He pressed the button as he could to sprinkle and no one got out of pileup that spit all the smoke to pass behind to cross the street. He wiped his hands well. Never missing tissues in your purse, no soap petals and a bottle of cologne.
It was dark and only distinguished the light bars. He lived in the same street but was diverted by another that opened into a square end. There it was: the 24-hour grocery so often went. Where once went window shopping, supermarkets are now discovering identifying and memorizing their schedule.
pulled the purse: 2.75 €. I would for a chocolate cupcake and even you 50 cents more than enough, enough for a bag of white chocolate covered star.
shop owners greeted with a smile. Before stepping onto the street the first cupcake touched his lips and kept pressing for their teeth. I could not tell if he liked it or not, only the question arose whether it would be tasting. I did not.
In the 8-minute-long walk to his house, Marta swallowed half a kilo weighing four cupcakes. Luckily there was still water in the bottle. It was something not usually lacking, rarely forgot the kitchen counter.
With hands still glazed took his keys and went home. "Mom, Dad? Ana! ". Nobody home. His parents had gone to dinner, reported a note. Her sister would be studying in the library, he thought, would not be long in coming. "Well!".
Although loneliness caused him distress and he looked like a cactus in the desert in a few seconds would be buried by the sandstorm, was glad to be alone: \u200b\u200bshe could lock herself in the bathroom and continue the strange relationship he had with him, with mirror, with the water.
So much food in her stomach was trembling, frightened. Anxiety sunk under pressure with saliva and sugar, had sprung to swallow the last piece of muffin, sliding it down the street and corridors of the building.
be glad, yes, glad to be home alone a lot. I had to wait for the family to sit on the couch. His eyes quickly traveled through the walls and a small smile, her face coloring.
In the bathroom with the door closed, he noticed his reflection in the mirror. Looked: that figure inflated and distorted frightened him. Guilt, like the moon rising, the overflowing and his muscles were fired in unison into the toilet. Not that that is nice. At first, perhaps they still had the chocolate sweetness. In the end, of course, no, was the opposite. His eyes watered of effort, the feeling burdened, swollen. Groused his throat burned. The last arch relief knew no, no, no good. His body, intemperate, was shivering and shaking in each, for a few seconds, when incorporated, lost his balance, dizzy. Looked at herself in the mirror, silent, motionless, his eyes were red, dark circles, mauve, chin, dirty. I wanted to mourn but his eyes had silenced her voice. I wish I had someone to hold at that time. bell rang. He started and redder of shame that effort, he washed his face, cleaned the sink, flushed and went to meet his sister.
