I am hungry. I need to take my snacks now. Bread and sandwich spread available in my kitchen but i don't feel like eating them. I am longing for something i can't understand. It s good fish ball vendor passed by. I craved immediately. It's been a year didn't eat fish ball because there were some announcement avoiding people not to buy fish ball in the street. The sauce are contaminated with Hepatitis virus. But my saliva start to droll so i bought fishball and eat. It is very delicious and i am okay.
