With it being November, there were plenty that prepared for the months daily runs. Humans, Monsters, regular creatures and anything in between...they all seemed to have one thing in common:
The month leading to September, everyone seemed to gain weight. It was a gluttonous season, and people really did have festivities.
Hearing the alarm on the side of his bed, a human hit the off button on the alarm clock, he got off of his bed, and onto the hardwood floor.
Slowly sauntering over to the door to the bathroom, he ruffled his mostly straight brown hair, with a little bit poking off the top, he headed inside to go wash himself and take a good look before beginning his daily shower.
Heading into the bathroom, he looked to himself. Hs ocean blue eyes met him back in the reflection of the mirror, along with his trademark smile, that grew once he looked at himself. PJ’s where what he was wearing, a nighttime and lounging shirt, along with one of his Many pairs of sweatpants he almost always had on.
That’s not exactly what caught his eye, however. Looking down, he noticed his normal lounging shirt looked a lot more….round than before. Putting his pale hands around his stomach, he felt around.
Soft is what was on his middle. Always soft, it felt a lot more round since the last inspection he’d had. He could actually put both his hands around his middle, and it was Squishy.
Normally, he kept himself around 290 or so pounds, but recently...food’s just been too good, and eating out with friends has been more than common.
Wanting to assess the damages, he pulled out his scale. Dusty, he blew a bit of it away to go stand on it.
Putting it down, he put himself on the scale….he had trouble looking by his round frame, but craning his neck, he was able to notice the number:
315.
He’d gained a very simple 25 pounds in less than a month.
Dero...he was getting fat alright...and even when he got off, he thought about one thing: Where to get a good meal.
