Lucy has Isaac over do it

    by: Andes2020 Author IconMail Icon
It had taken a while and a great deal of coaxing, plus some physical exertion from Lucy after Isaac had asked for help up, but eventually they had managed to leave the restaurant. Cradling his belly in his arms, Isaac waddled out of the restaurant with a gut so stuffed full that he almost looked pregnant.

Lucy soon found herself back in her dorm room mulling over how she could help Isaac out of his current predicament. Before the culmination of finals, she had tried the ‘softly softly’ approach: dropping hints, making subtle, but helpful remarks, and she’d even given him a pamphlet on healthy eating. After seeing him at the restaurant though she seriously doubted that he had even opened it.

The gym was surely out of the question for the time being. With the amount of calories he seemed to be eating there was no doubt in her mind that any work he did at the gym would be undone and only lead to him giving up.

A small idea began to take shape in her head. She knew she needed to get him to stop overeating before she could get him to the gym.

If Isaac wanted to overeat, she’d make sure he did. If she could get him to absolutely overdo it just once, then she was sure he’d snap out of it. All she had to do was make sure he went at it hard enough that he never wanted to do it again. She hadn’t immediately convinced herself of this plan, it had taken several days for the theory to take hold and even then she was only somewhat positive it might work.

Finalizing her plan and finishing up the preparations, all she had left to do was work out when to start it.

You have the following choices:

*Pen*
1. The Plan starts that night

2. That weekend

*Pen*
3. Lucy changes her mind

*Pen* indicates the next chapter needs to be written.
