This choice: 2 weeks later and your fathers getting a lot chubbier • Go Back... You've kept your eye on your dad the past two weeks. You're used to him hitting the gym twice a week, but since he got his promotion he took it down to one and now he hasn't been going at all. He's also been snacking a lot more. As he sits at his desk and works on his computer he usually has a bag of chips or a box of cookies near him, sometimes with a beer nearby.
Because of all this laziness and eating he's gained more weight. His belly has grown out more, pooching over his waistband when he sits. He doesn't have an overhang or moobs but you can see the developing belly through any of his tight work shirts. In fact, just the other day he put on one of his suits to go into the office for a meeting and you could see him struggling to get that last button on. Once it slipped into place he laughed and patted his gut.
Watching your dad grow has been pretty cool. First off, he's been bringing home a lot more snacks that he shares with you. Twice a week he'll bring home a cake, and you're happy to have a few slices even though he ends up eating most of it. There's been a lot more ice cream stocked in the fridge because he always has a cup or two before bed and there's always a few chip bags. You wonder if all this food is going to cause YOU to gain weight, but you've always been skinny so that wouldn't happen, right?
The second reason watching you dad grow has been cool is because, it just... is. You like to stare at his round belly and imagine how soft it is. Compared to other fat men you've seen he doesn't look that soft. It's not a soft flabby belly as much as a doughy round gut. Or at least it looks like that. Sometimes your dad rests his hand on his belly and squeezes it. You want to try that some time but you're afraid to ask him since it sounds weird.
So two weeks after first noticing your dad's weight gain, he's lounging and watching tv on the couch now, his belly poking out of his shirt which was unbuttoned at the bottom. Your eyes are glued to it and you decide that it's time to go for it, now or never. As your dad puts another handful of chips in his mouth you reach over and pat his belly. You look up at him and he smiles at you, so you lay your hand on it and sink your fingers into the fat.
"Whoa..." you mutter under your breath.
"Yeah, I guess I've gotten kinda big, huh?" your dad says sheepishly. He stretches back and his shirt rides further up, exposing his entire belly in it's full glory.
"Uh-huh. Well, it's not THAT bad, right?" you say, pretending you aren't in awe.
"I guess. But still, it's getting out of hand. I've gained like 15 pounds in two weeks!"
"Is that a lot?"
"It is. Dang, it's gonna be a pain to work this all off." Your heart sinks a little at the thought of your dad slimming down again, even if it's what he wants. You both sit in silence on the couch, even though you haven't moved your hand from his belly. Then the silence is interrupted. indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
