look  - John and Mina are talking
in the corner in the class;
they too have their worries
even though they're just kids

"My dad works all night
at the petrol station
and in the office in the morning;
and my mom at her office in the afternoon
and she cooks and cleans
and washes all morning -
all this, as they tell me,
so I never have to worry
and I can have a good house
and food and the big car
But I still worry"


"What's there to worry?
For you, life's made easy,"
says the wise Mina

"Yeah," answers the worrier John -
*"but what happens if they decide to run away?"
