"were you ever in love with a man?" i asked her kindly. kayrie paused and it seemed as if the topic really bothered her. she walked around the hut slowly wondering what to say. Her round brown eyes were full of sadness.

"i'm sorry if it's a personal matter i won't push it further" i said to her feeling her pain.

"i was in love once with a man just like you" kayrie finally said.

"wait a minute Sarah told me that you all have heard of man but never came across one" i said.

"she meant that anybody who has eaten our food before and gained serious amount of weight died" she said. "there has not been a single man capable of handling the fat, they either died of heart attacks or other causes."

"what makes you think that won't happen to me?" i asked her. "i've already gained 100 pounds which puts me close to 300."

"i will not let you die" she said firmly.

i smiled at her and just then by magic my belly grew a little bigger and wider.

"i guess the batter is now processed" kayrie said as i looked at my body in shock.
