 And the ants start coming. And every day, I would take a part of my food and leave it on the floor in the corner and let it dry up and crumb it in loitering pieces to attract the ants. And for three, four days, just one ant. I couldn't tell one ant from another, but I thought he was my buddy. Because every day, he'd be the first ant that would come in to bite the food that I lay on the floor in solitary. And on the fourth day, this ant did not come back. The fifth day, he didn't come back. And on the sixth day, I was upset.
