Say it with cheese

Back home after a long and tiring tour she threw herself on the bed longing for some shut eye but the loud growling sound inside her stomach left her restless. Dragging herself to the kitchen she quickly grabbed the jars on the shelves frantically opening them and looking inside for anything that could satiate her hunger. Chips, biscuits, cakes lay on the uppermost shelf. But there was something else that she was eager to have, something she remembered she’d left long back and forgotten. She pulled open the refrigerator door and peeped in. A few cheese cubes that had turned hard and smelly lay there in a corner. She could feel her hunger pangs getting stronger by the minute. The insides of her tummy were getting pulled in all directions and the contractions were unbearable.

Unable to resist, she picked one and popped it into her mouth. Just as she tried to sink her teeth into the hard rubbery texture, the aroma of a sizzling molten hot pizza wafted through the air from the neighbourhood cafe. She closed her eyes and inhaled deeply raising her nose up, like a mongrel until she could absorb the stunning visual of a full 12 inch pizza in her mind, loaded with mozzarella cheese flowing all over and beyond. The soft gooey white layer of cheese melting slowly around the toppings made her mouth water. A smile flashed on her face as she licked the piece of cheese, rolling it in and around her mouth and nibbling on it relishing every bite.
