As another day of work came to a close in the family restaurant of Wagnaria, Popura Taneshima began to measure her height as it had become somewhat of a ritual. This was mostly in vain however as herself and everyone else around her knew that she was doomed to be a petite 141 cm for the rest of her days. She was a pretty small all around except for her sizable chest which looked very out of place when compared to the rest of her body. She had her hair in her trademark ponytail and was wearing the Wagnaria uniform all clad in the white undershirt, pale yellow apron, short black skirt and cute little ribbon near her collarbone to complete the ensemble. "Hnngh!" Popura grunted as she stood on her tippy toes in an attempt to get any extra height possible. "It's just no use." She panted as she dropped down to a sitting position. "I'm still 141 cm no matter how much I stretch out." She sat there listlessly as she lamented about her current situation. As she stared at the ceiling without any emotion showing on her face she suddenly had an epiphany. "If I eat more, maybe that will help me grow." She exclaimed as she hurried to change out of her work uniform. After the miniature girl was done changing she left out the back door of her place of employment as she began her trek back to her home. "I'll start as soon as I get home." Popura schemed to herself as she nearly skipped her way home. Her mind dancing with excitement at the pure genius of the idea she came up with. "I'll get even taller than Katanashi-kun's sisters, just you watch." Popura shouted out to no one in particular. Probably to steel her resolve on her upcoming endeavour. ______________________________________________________ "Is it just me or has Taneshima gotten...bigger." Jun Satou idly commented to his coworker Souta Takanashi when the latter came to pick up a customer's order. "Now that you mention it she is losing some of her appeal." Takanashi then glanced over to the aforementioned heavier girl. Popura Taneshima had gained a considerable amount of weight even in the short time since she began her new 'diet'. However she seemed completely oblivious to this blatant fact as she went about her duties as a waitress. Just the same as she did before even with a belly that rather noticeably protruded out straining her uniform almost as much as her chest which before was rather large previously but now her breasts were monstrous beasts that made her formerly perfectly fitting undershirt-apron combo a rather tight squeeze. Her limbs had seen some growth but nowhere near as much as her torso had expanded. Her thickened arms only impeded movement slightly but they filled the sleeves of her undershirt to bursting, almost tearing them at some areas. The skirt of the uniform she wore was almost risqué as her ample hips, thighs and butt strained the garment considerably causing it to ride up significantly. As she bounced about the restaurant her body shook and jiggled as if it had a mind of it's own. It was incredibly astounding to both the employees and the customers of Wagnaria that the (formerly) minuscule waitress still retained much of her energy from when she was much, much smaller. "Katanashi-kun what are you doing just standing there? Customers are waiting!" Takanashi was snapped out of his stupor by the one who caused it in the first place as he quickly scurried to deliver the order to it's respective patron. "O-o-of course senpai." Takanashi stammered out whilst hurrying. Nearly dropping the food he was carrying in the midst of his haste. "Seriously am I gonna have to pick up all of his slack?" Popura pouted to herself while grabbing an order from Satou "Right Satou-san?" The chef was startled by the chiclet-sized chief's sudden inquiry as he thought she was merely musing to herself. "Of course Tane-short-ma." Satou playfully teased the chubby waitress as he so often did. It was a good break from the fairly monotonous work that being a chef entailed and he knew that Taneshima didn't take it to heart and would forget about it the next day in all likelihood. "I'm not short!" Taneshima proclaimed in her ordinary fashion as she waved her pudgy fist in the air in denial. As she did this her body erupted in jiggles and wobbles. "And my hair isn't blonde." Satou retorted complacently as he turned back to the kitchen to work on the next order. "I'll get you back one of these days Satou-san." Taneshima boldly stated as trotted off, taking an outgoing order as she went. "Do as you please." Satou raised his voice just enough so that Taneshima would hear her but not enough to make it sound like he was angry. He smiled a bit as he went about his cooking. "She's still the same Taneshima even if she has gained a little weight, maybe I was concerned for nothing." Satou thought aloud to himself forgetting about his seemingly omnipotent fellow chef Hiroomi Souma standing in close proximity. "You shouldn't mention a lady's weight even behind her back Satou-kun." Souma snuck up behind the taller chef as he spoke with a hint of smugness. "I wonder how Taneshima would react if she knew that her weight was concerning for you." The sly chef continued. Satou felt a chill run down his spine as the man spoke. "Alright I get it I'll do your work for you if that'll get you off my back." Satou quickly regained his composure while replying. "But you don't have to." Souma said in a somewhat mocking tone. "Shut up." Satou remarked as he went to Souma's half finished food and started to cook it as well as his own order. ______________________________________________________ "I'm still so hungry...All according to plan." Popura commented to herself self-satisfaction pouring out of her very being as she reached for some more chips. Her smile was ear to ear as she began her gorging once again, stuffing her mouth full with any food she could find in her house. She sat on her bed blissfully only ever getting up to get more snacks to munch on. When she first began her 'diet' Popura ate out of a desire to become taller. Now she was so far gone that she needed to eat what a normal person would 5 times over just to sustain herself, not that she limited herself to just that much though. These days she was always snacking and looking for new ways to eat more and more in her quest to gain height. By all means she had grown, just horizontally rather than vertically. Popura had become very wide as she was very short. Her hips each flaring out a good three and a half feet from her body and those hips gave way to surprisingly cellulite-free thighs that were individually two times the width of Satou's chest. However her massive belly apron covered those thighs as well as her knees. The massive nearly always wobbling mass of pure fat was a pale orb serving as a testament to her boundless gluttony. Her breasts still dominated her form as they were each six times the size of her head and forced her to sleep upright as she ran the risk of suffocating herself if she didn't. They still remained as perky as ever despite not being held up by a bra due to no undergarment being able to hold her sweater hounds for more than 5 minutes at best. Her abundant rear was catching up quickly however as the two pure white rotund spheres shook wildly as she moved to grab more greasy snacks to fill her cherubic cheeks. Her three chins sloshing about as she chewed happily on her fried snack. "Mmm so good." Popura bounced as she swallowed her fattening treat. Well she bounced about as much as one her size could. Which sent her whole body into a series of jiggling fits which continued for a nice few seconds afterwards She once again strained her over-inflated bingo wings to grab a gallon of ice cream with one bloated arm. The other grabbing a spoon she had tucked in her love handles for easy access as she gradually lost dexterity due to her now mammoth-sized body. "Ah it's cold." What should have been obvious only occurred to the titanic mass of a girl after she had ate a large spoonful of the frozen confection. "Popura! Dinner!" Popura's mother called out to her from their dining room. "Coming!" Popura replied as she began to attempt to leave her bed but found she couldn't. No matter how hard she tried she couldn't move her gargantuan form from the confines of her bed; pinned by the veritable mass of lard that was her own body. "Hnngh!" Popura attempted to heave her wobbling frame once more. "It's no use I'm not getting out of here any time soon with all of this in the way." Popura pouted as she gave up on leaving her oh so comfortable mattress. Suddenly realizing how truly big she had gotten. "But on second thought, eating in bed all day wouldn't be so bad." Popura had a devilish smirk on her chubby face as she thought about how this kind of growth wasn't so bad after all, in fact she found she rather enjoyed being this large. It gave her a sense of size that she hadn't had before; like she was bigger than other people, just physically of course she wasn't so conceited as to think she was better than other people. "Hey mom I think you're gonna have to bring it up to me." Popura called back out to her mom as she thought about how much bigger she would become. Rubbing one of her over-developed jugs as she couldn't reach her monument of indulgence that was her belly.
