“Don’t do stupid things like that. Last year, your little auntie tried for one month, it nearly killed her. She fi rst lost her normal appetite and then became sick. Whatever she ate, she threw it all up. Be whoever you are! Got it?”
“No worries, mom. I won’t spare time or waste money on something meaningless like that.”
