“Hi! How are you?” The woman smiled as she took the seat next to me on the airplane, She had to lower herself slowly, trying hard to push her fat body into the seat, filling all available space.
I didn’t reply and moved a little towards the window. She repeated her greeting in a friendly voice.
“Hi!” I replied.
“My name is Laura. I'm from Britain. How about you?” she talked excitedly. “Malaysia.” I said coldly.
Laura started a conversation with me, taking no notice of my unfriendly reactions. Her voice was warm and caring. She was thoughtful. When we were served drinks and meals she made sure that I had room to move in my seat. “I don't want to make you uncomfortable with my elephant size!” she said with great sincerity(真诚).
To my surprise, the face that I had disliked hours before slowly showed a nice smile -- lively and calm at the same time. I couldn’t help but let down my guard.
Laura was interesting. During our conversation, Laura managed to make every person on the plane who served us walk away laughing at her jokes.
I asked Laura, “Have you ever thought about losing some weight? You aren't worried about the diseases that come with being overweight?” “Not at all, because I eat healthily and walk regularly,” she said. “This may not be scientific, but I believe in my heart that the people who get diseases are the ones who worry all the time. I’m this size because I was born to be big! There is more to life than worrying about weight all day long.”
She drank her wine. “Besides, God gives me so much happiness that I need a bigger body to hold all of it! If I lose weight, I'll lose my happiness.”
Surprised by her unusual reasoning, I smiled. 1 suddenly realized that Laura was the most beautiful woman I had ever met in my life.
