go get ice cream. "What, like, you know, in the middle of the mall??" Fumiko asked, realizing that this was an odd place to get ice cream.
"No, it's not in the middle of the mall, it's... It's just out there."
Fumiko looked out the window and she had to admit that she had never seen the ice cream parlor in the mall before. She'd almost passed it a few times, but she had never entered. Mostly because she'd been sure her mother would kill her if she did. However, now her mother was inviting her to get ice cream. It really was like she didn't care that Fumiko was getting fat.
Fumiko was excited to try some ice cream, as the only time she'd ever had it was when she was at the sleepover with her friend. That had been about when she'd discovered her love of food. The ice cream had been what started this for her. It had been what made her eat and get fat. However, now her own mother was bringing her in.
The smell inside the parlor was sweet and delicious, and Fumiko's stomach growled in anticipation. She followed her mother over to the counter and waited for her mother to order for her. Her mother took a long time ordering, but finally, she handed Fumiko a massive cone with a sundae of chocolate ice cream, crushed nuts, and hot fudge.
Fumiko couldn't believe her mother had ordered so much ice cream for her. When they sat down, she tried to figure out what her mother had put on her cone. She took a tentative lick and was surprised to find that it was delicious. She took another lick and another, and she savored the taste as she ate the whole thing. Then she looked over at her mother and she was already eating hers.
It was kind of surprising to see her mother actually eating ice cream, but it was nice. Like it was something that they could bond over. Still, she was nervous about what was to come. Her mother had been so adamant about her not getting fat, and yet now that she was starting to look chubby, her mother was starting to treat her like a normal girl. What was her mother planning?
By the time they were ready to leave the parlor, Fumiko had managed to eat two more giant-sized sundaes. It had been so delicious and she'd been so hungry. She couldn't believe her mother had let her get even more ice cream. Her belly was so full now.
Fumiko and her mom walked back to the mall. She looked over at her mother and they continued on their way to the parking lot. "Mom?" She said since they hadn't spoken in a while, "What were you planning on doing about me getting fat??"
"Oh?" Her mother said, "Oh, that, well, I just figured that you're a big girl and you can make your own decisions. If you want to get fat, you'll have to deal with the consequences."
"What consequences?" Fumiko asked, surprised to hear her mother talking about her fatness like it was nothing. She'd thought she was going to explain to her how horrible it was that she was getting fat and they would make her lose all her weight at once to make a point.
"You'll start to have a lot more trouble doing physical activity, and you probably will start having trouble doing things with your friends." Her mother said.
"You aren't worried about me being fat?"
"I love you, whether you're thin or fat."
"Oh, mom." Fumiko sighed, though she was still worried that her mother wasn't telling her the whole truth. Still, she was secretly happy. Since when did her mother become okay with her getting fat?
They didn't say anything else as they made their way home, though her mother started working on dinner while Fumiko went up to play more video games. However, she couldn't deny that it was so strange that her mother seemed so okay with her gaining weight when she'd been so against it before.
She glanced down at her soft belly, admiring how it was starting to bulge out of her middle beneath her budding chest. She gently massaged her stuffed belly, enjoying the softness of it. Her arms and legs were starting to look thicker too, though she definitely wouldn't consider herself fat yet. Several of her friends were still fatter than her, though she didn't think that they were actively gaining. Still, she hadn't really hung out with her friends this summer, so who knew?
It would be interesting to see how big she got before school started next month. She definitely didn't think that she'd be the fattest girl in school, but she wasn't intending on stopping anytime soon.
Her mom had been right about one thing: As she gained weight, it was harder for her to do all of her normal activities. She'd been a fairly active child before she started gaining weight, and she was finding it harder even to go on her daily walks. She found herself getting more and more out of breath as her weight continued to increase daily. It was like the more she was unable to exercise, the easier it was to gain weight. She couldn't do much but eat, sleep and play video games every night, which was the best part of her day.
After a few weeks, she decided to try on some of her old clothes from before she went shopping. She couldn't believe how small they were starting to feel. They were so tight and restricting. She couldn't even do up her jeans, they were so tight, and her belly hung out of her shirt. She loved how fat it made her look, even though she'd only really consider herself chubby. She was determined to get so fat she couldn't even get these clothes on.
She admired herself in the mirror in her room. Her mother had gotten it for her a few weeks before, and she said it was so that Fumiko didn't have to spend so much time in the bathroom. Sure enough, Fumiko had been spending an increasing amount of time looking at herself in the mirror in the bathroom before her mother had got the one for her room.
She just loved fantasizing about how big she was going to get and how she was starting to really plump up. She was getting bigger every day as school approached. Still, she had a couple of weeks before school started and she didn't really have any plans today, so she wondered what she should do.
