When Billy came back from work, he gave an impression of restlessness. This he could not hide from even the least unconscious individual. Although he felt very tired to do anything, he knew at the back of his mind that it was inevitable he get himself something to eat that evening. In spite of his tiredness, he was completely at odd with the time he finds himself. The reason was very clear. Because he lived alone, hence, he expects no one to get him something to eat neither to encourage him for form of slackness.

With what looks like a moment of confusion in this context, he immediately figures out the quickest way to get over it. Again in what looks like a brilliant idea to get over his slackness, he discovered at the very last minute he has none any of the very ingredient to do anything, even for whatever he may choose to prepare.

He contemplated for a split of a second whether to go for it or not. But the reality is that for quite some time, he has taken the decision that the moment he was in, he was never to come out until the second day. But this particular moment seems to be quite different. What seems to stand out however, among his reasons rightly or wrongly, was simply that it is weekend therefore, it appear a peculiar time for his modest estimation. Yes, it so because no shopping moles will be opens as always the case.

It became imperative under any circumstances that he must have to dash out to get what he needs not what he wants. Beside, these are things he needs if he must eat something or else he would go to bed without food. In a moment of reflection, he burst into a laughter that was to consume his time, as he immediately realized he must avoide what had happen the other night without food. The laughter, however, no doubt, tends to relief him of his worry that had built up overtime. It was his Granma who always tell him to learn to laugh at himself whenever he has some cracking moment, because it helps, and with this he remembers her always.

Because the moment you can afford to laugh at yourself, no one can laugh at you to hurt you. And as it were, he made up some list of items which were the things that he has been lacking over time, if not due to his unusual procrastination of which his current environment could be held responsible.

Even if he could do without any other ingredient, he could not do without the most basic one like salt of all ingredients. With this observation he became more alert after the laughter, as if he has taken tonic that was to propel him through the entire moment of preparation for the procurement of the items. Once again, he removes only his shirt and then sat down in one of the couch, just to be sure of what he was going out for. At that moment in time, he realized that his problem was not actually whether he was tired or not, but the avoidance of spending the extra cash left with him for anything, he remind himself.

But this very evening, it was what you lacking so much and indeed about food, for the second time, he told himself, as he get up from where he was. Unfortunately, he could not afford to fulfill such promise not to spend for anything, as he had promised himself early. And as it turns to be what looks like a personal discrepancies and justification he let be and to takes the place of a principle.

But such self justification, though, might only tend to portray him as a miser in the open, he once again remind himself, as something to guide against. With this reflection he dissipated his emotional accumulation; as he disappear into the open with his regained energy, and set out for his acquisitions for the evening. When he came back, he was sure he was going for what he called “Bricolage’’ which means a quick set of whatever was available for cook and eat just to appease the stomach for the night. Although not without looking miserable without light, that compel him to eat in the dark. Read more on :
