Life Lessons
Mello
Once there was a happy little boy called Mello. Mello just loved to each all sorts of delicious, wholesome foods. He liked fruits and vegetables and rice and bread and Italian food and Japanese food and fish and meat and eggs and yummy things like that.
The one food Mello couldn't stand was chocolate. It was just so sweet and cocoa-y.
One day Mello went to see his good friend, Near.
Unfortunately, Near had very recently been traumatised and scarred for life only the day before and went a little bit crazy at the sight of the happy little Mello.
As a result, Mello left sooner than he had expected. He also had a lot less hair than when he'd gone in, and some odd-looking scratches.
Like a good friend, Mello wondered what was wrong with his friend Near. So he went to find Watari to find out. Mello went to go Watari's office, but on the way there he passed a bathroom. He heard what sounded like someone having a bath, but there weren't any sounds like water.
Happy little Mello innocently pushed open the bathroom door and, as a result, learned about Watari's little secret.
You see, Watari was very scared of water. He could only drink a little of it at a time. He couldn't bathe in it, oh no. So, instead, he bathed in food. He filled the bath with all sorts of food like rice and bread and fruits and vegetables -coincidentally, everything Mello liked to eat. The only thing that wasn't there was chocolate.
Unfortunately this didn't make him as clean as he would like. He had stinky feet covered in black grime, which he was, at that moment, trying to rub off with celery. He was, at the same time, trying to clear out his ear with a carrot stick.
Unbeknowst to Watari, Mello was watching him with his mouth hanging wide open.
Very quietly, Mello shut the bathroom door and ran away to hide under his bed.
From that day on, little Mello ate nothing but chocolate.
