Kiara woke up the next day to find that she had again gained weight. Most of it had gone to her backside that was now very soft and cushion-like. She ate only a little breakfast because she knew that grandma Sarafina would have something ready for her.
"Mom, I'm going to grandma's. I'll be back for dinner."
"Ok Kiara, have fun!"

Kiara started a slow lope towards Sarafina's cave, but started feeling tired and out of breath very quickly. "Ugh...I could use some exercise..." she thought and continued with a slow pace.
Sarafina was indeed waiting for Kiara with a big surprise: a whole hippo!
"Wow grandma, how did you get your paws on that? Mmm, I can't wait to taste it!"
"Well, why wait, then? Go on, eat as much as you want to. You need the food more than I do".
Kiara dug in, ripping off huge chunks of fatty meat and swallowing them as if she was in a hurry. Sarafina was a bit surprised by how much the little princess could eat, but felt good that she could make Kiara happy.
Finally Kiara let out a small burp and lay on her back. "Grandma, that was sooo good! Thank you!"
"Well it you liked it, why is there still so much left?" Sarafina said teasingly.
"I'm only a cub, I can't eat as much as adults..."
"Go on, you can't be full yet! I can feed you if you want to."
"Would you really do that for me? Well, if doesn't cause you any trouble..."
Sarafina started feeding Kiara small chunks of meat, not wanting Kiara to feel stuffed too soon. She only stopped as Kiara fell asleep with belly that looked bigger than Kiara herself.
