Hi, my name is Ginger Bread Man. As you can see my creator made me a joyful man. I am not the only one. I saw hundreds of them in the same house where my creator made me. We are all colorful and cheerful. And something special about me is my clothes contain no fabric but just three buttons. And look at pants, oh dear I do hope it is decent enough to cover whatever needed to be covered. One more thing, my creator made me sleeves too, to match up with my pants. Don't you think I am wonderful? ☺
One fine day, our creator arranged all of us siblings in a nice container. Oh my we were so happy because it was going to be an outing for us. Yippee!
Then we reached a big solid building with this Logo.
It was an amazing place with other men like me, but bigger, and with more distinctive features. The main difference between them and us was they are able to translate their thoughts with sound coming out of them. For the rest of us, our thoughts remain as thoughts. Besides that, they can move every part of them, unlike us, stiff. I wonder who is their Creator. We were nicely placed on a deck with some other creatures, which I overheard someone mentioned they are coffee beans? Since then I never see my creator anymore. Hours went by and he never returned. I miss him.
The next day, one human came to the shop and picked two of us up. She passed some papers with number on them to another human and we were kept in a paper bag. Now I couldn't see anything because it was dim inside here. Thank goodness I had a company and not alone. We weren't sure where we were, just knew we were brought to the man's house.
Days had gone and on Sunday, this human brought us for a tour to a place called church. Oh we enjoyed the songs so much. Later on this human passed the paper bag where we were in to another person, "Merry Christmas Jade. Late presents. These for Jayden and Jansen."
I was excited because I guessed we would have a new owner. We went home with Jade. Jade is a lovely human. She took us out because there were two smaller-size human were thrilled to see how we look like. Two of them. One was taller. The other one was way shorter.
"So nice! Can I eat it after dinner?" said the taller one.
"Sure," Jade replied.
I was thinking hard about the word eat. Clueless about its meaning. However I was not so worried about it because I would find out soon. Kind of happy. Are they going to talk to me? Maybe eat = talk. I was full of hope.
After dinner, Jade took my partner out from the plastic that wrapped us and handed him to the taller one. "I want to eat the hand 1st!!!"
To my shock, he broke my partner's arm and placed it somewhere into the face and the arm was gone forever!!!. Then another arm was broken too. So that was what they meant when they said EAT. Human put us into their body!!
I couldn't describe further because I lost my partner in just 3 days. I was filled with sadness, not knowing what to do and how my future would become. Surprisingly no one remembered me after that. I was there for 14 days. Perhaps the shorter human was not interested to eat me. I sat there hoping every single day that none of them would notice me.
Today, to my shock again, Jade was clearing the table and Oh my gosh she saw me! She took me out from the plastic and placed me on a plate. Not sure what was she doing but there was this rectangle thing she was holding kept making "click click" sound in front of me. Then she put me into a container and covered me with a lid. What will happen next I do not know. I hope no one will ever eat me.
