A FAMILY
In this story, we can see that who knows our intimate friend will change to a person that we cannot recognize them like before just for a few years. Like Simon and George.
Simon Radevin is a most intimate friend to George. They have been separated for fifteen years. He is who has the charisma and the cult-like. Both of them share the same interests and they share everything together.
After a long break Simon married. It happened quite suddenly. Simon married a little girl from the provinces. Who was came to Paris to find a husband. George reflects the girl is beautiful, intelligent and has the characteristics of the ideal woman every man according to Simon. George wanted to meet Simon. He waited for Simon at the train. George was very surprised to see the changes that occur in self-Simon. Simon has changed. He was a stout man, very stout man with red cheeks and a big stomach.
Therefore, we don't know what will be happen in our future life. With who we will be married, have a children, and stay at where? Who knows.
Not only that, Simon also already had five children. His house area is quite remote. But Simon's a friendly guy. He lives with her grandfather-in-law. When they got home, Simon's wife greeted them. George was shocked again by the wife of Simon. Simon's wife is also a stout and just a housewife. He thought that Simon's wife was a career woman but his assumption proved wrong.
Moreover, we have to take care of our health for make sure when we getting older our health still in good condition. Reduce sugar in food, but add more sugar in our smile.
Simon grandfather-in-law is eighty-seven years old, living with a wheelchair, and he was paralyzed. This old man very like to sweet food such as sweet creamed rice and dessert. But he cannot eat them because of his health. He just allow to eat a soup, but he not like to eat that soup. Simon's family were taken up solely with him during the whole meal. They just put a tiny morsel on his plate when he really wanted to that food and he ate with feverish gluttony. George fell so pity to him, and ask Simon to give him others sweetened rice. But he said that it enough, that not good for his health.
"There was nothing left for him to do in this life, nothing whatever. He had one single wish left, one sole pleasure, why not grant him that last solace until he died"
