Calories I almost forgot.

Here they are:

six brazil nuts covered in yoghurt-300

oats, pumpkin seeds and sultanas-400

two slices of toast, some beanfeast, spinach, peas and cheese-500

1200. Though I haven't really done any exercise today. But I'm glad I kept under. It showed me that if I don't eat so much, I can do it.

How are you faring Little Bird? Are you alright, with your own?

I would touch your shoulders and your back, but never your stomach, because I know what it is to be confronted with that reality.

Fat or Pregnant indeed. You are neither, darling. Neither. They are stupid boys, stupid and silly, and they know that you are too pretty.

Someone said tonight that you were one of the lads, and as such got passed over. I think the opposite. You're pretty and you're one of the lads; they notice you, and they know you, and like you. So far, two have, in our little group, and probably countless more. It's an artless seduction. It's that simple, really it is. Lord, I wish I was beautiful like you.
