I used to believe…

When I was four, my mom told me not to eat the black seeds in watermelon. (I still don't know why!) But I knew that I accidentally swallowed one. I kept imagining that a watermelon vine was growing in my stomach. I was afraid to confront my mom, because I thought she would take me to the hospital and get an operation.
