The rest of her shift was uneventful. To her relief, no one said a word about her belly or the missing inedible meat. As far as she was concerned, she had gotten off with the perfect crime. Though just because no one caught her didn't mean there weren't repercussions. She still felt a little self-conscious about her prominent belly and even after wolfing down that slob of meat she still had food on the mind. It took everything she had to resist sneaking food off other people's orders. Not to mention she occasionally had to stifled some burps from time to time.
Once the dinner shift ended, she hung up her apron, grabbed her belongings, and got in her car to drive home. The whole ride she was tempted to grab some drive-thru but she needed to slim down after that meal from earlier plus she wasn't done for the night. She had a big test to study for next week and needed to focus on studying.
By the time she drove up onto the campus grounds, her stomach started to rumble and Karen wondered if the cafeteria is still open. Part of her reassured her that a tiny snack wouldn't hurt but another part wanted her to get to studying right away. Both thoughts sounded tiring. Maybe getting a good night's sleep would be better.
She snapped out of her daze when a group of students nearly walked into her and she made a snappy decision.
