HEALTHY FOOD DOESN'T HURT
STORY-
“YUCK!” screamed Kevin as his mother
brought up a bowl full of broccoli stew for his lunch. “Get that away from me
!” he shrieked, giving the food a dirty look. Then, scowling at his mother, he
rushed up the stairs, or actually, he tottered up them as fast as his
elephant-sized legs would allow him. He then tottered into his bedroom, shut
and bolted the door, and pulled out his hidden stash of junk food, stored in
the most unlikely places of his bedroom. He flopped down on his bed, pulled out
his laptop and, balancing it on his fat belly, began to play computer games
while he chomped down the unhealthy junk.
Outside, his mother his mother
wailed, pleaded, and even whined for him to come out and eat his healthy stew,
and his father soon joined the choir, shouting in his low, base voice, but
Kevin just pulled out his headphones, put them on, and the outside world was
drowned away by the music. 
He had his oily, tasty junk food, and that was all
he ever needed.Their family physician, Dr Jeeves,
had always disapproved of their food habits; especially Kevin’s and had always
chided them about it, at each visit, but in vain, considering the fact the boy
simply seemed to blow up every time they visited the doctor, as though he had
an air attached to him somewhere.“I’m terribly sorry to inform you, but Kevin is seriously obese, and his
condition is going to deteriorate if you continue to let him feed on all that
oily, fatty food, with absolutely no exercise.” After that, he rambled on about
the how dangerous obesity was. Kevin simply hung his head down, wondering how
he never observed what a chocolaty color the tiles were. Mmm..., chocolate, he
thought. Meanwhile his parents were very worried. His mother let out a few
squeals every now and then, as though she was watching a horror movie, and his
father grew terribly pale. In between, Kevin’s ears caught a few words of the
doctor’s as he listed out the effects of obesity. “Serious breathing problems
like sleep apnea, which is the shortage of breath which occurs when a person is
sleeping; Sudden and sharp pain in the limbs, cardiovascular pains, diabetes
and even cancer.” he said. The doctor then dished out orders for a complete
revamp of Kevin’s lifestyle-including some foods which seemed highly
unpalatable-foods like broccoli, spinach, kale, cauliflower, lettuce,
celery…….the list seemed to be endless! And the amount of exercise he had to do
– an hour a day! Kevin didn't like the sound of it one bit.He would then ring up his friends who worked at the nearby fast
food joints, to bring it over. His friend would then climb the fire escape up
to his room window, pass on the junk food and would be paid handsomely. No, you
can never separate Kevin Mackenzie from his junk food !
