Are You In, Or Out?

Cure anything?

Benjamin's eyes glistened like stars when looking at the mysterious-looking object the stranger held.

Although it looked enticing, it did look too fat for consumption. 

'Is father's mouth that big enough to swallow it whole? What about mother? Will it be able to pass through her neck pipe?

Don't blame Benjamin for being doubtful. 

From what he knew, medicinal goods were to be swallowed, gulped down or crushed and rubbed on a wound. 

Again, he has never seen a bar of soap in his life, nor has he ever heard of one existing before.

But with how hard looking it was, he didn't think it could be crushed like leaves and rubbed on his father and mother's injury. 

So the only other way medicinal goods can be taken is by swallowing it down or cooking and drinking it like soup, right?

(?~?)

But soon, another thought flashed through his head. 

Yes, how could he forget?
