chapter 4

It was the last thing he expected to hear in the middle of a rush. Despite the long line of customers, he had to rush into the back after hearing such a loud crash. Wade wasn’t sure what scene he he had prepared himself to walk in on, but it definitely wasn’t Kiki flat on the ground with the remains of the broken stool surrounding her.

It was difficult to even remember the skinny girl that stepped into his bakery 18 months ago as her chubby face looked towards him and mumbled out an embarrassed apology. He was so shocked that it took him a moment to fully realize that she was struggling to get back up on her own before he reached out a hand to help her up. After a lot of grunting on both their parts, Kiki managed to stand up... and almost immediately get back to stuffing her face with the 10 pound ice cream sandwich before her, which she was already mostly done with.

Wade stood there for a moment, memorized by her complete and utter slobbery, before remembering his customers and turning back around. When she finally finished, she slowly managed to waddle her way through the store, while making frequent breaks to catch her breath. She was panting heavily and covered in sweat. The customers did their best not to stare, but it was difficult for them not to. Wade couldn’t blame them - Kiki always did her best to seem proud and presentable, but it seems that standing for the past thirty minutes as she finished her “breakfast” was enough to completely exhaust her.

After he closed for the night, Wade made a quick visit to the local furniture store to buy a chair just for Kiki, but ended up leaving with a loveseat as his mind couldn’t help fantasizing Kiki’s expanding body slowly overflowing the small couch meant to sit two people.

Kiki waddled in the next morning with a bit of embarrassment and another apology, but her face quickly lit up again as she saw the new “chair” just for her and the 5 foot long chocolate eclair already waiting for her.

What she didn’t know was that there was an extra surprise that only Wade knew about - he had placed a large, industrial scale under the couch. It was meant for large-scale orders that required you to measure ingredients by weight, but to anyone unfamiliar with such an item would just think of it as some large sheet of metal. After zeroing out the weight of the couch, his computer was all set and ready to receive the exact number of Kiki’s rapidly growing weight.

Which is how Wade learned that despite making her public announcement of hitting 300 pounds a few weeks ago, Kiki had somehow already managed to hit 342 pounds. So either she had managed to gain a little over 10 pounds a week, or Kiki had been fibbing her actual weight for a while now despite already dabbling in plus-size modeling. Both theories were great for Wade to think about, even if he knew which one was the more likely.

Over the past year, it almost felt as if Wade was watching an ongoing battle between Kiki’s stomach and breasts over which sticks out the most in front, but it looks like her stomach finally won that battle. At first he didn’t think much of it cause he mostly only got a good look at her profile these days while she was stuffing her face with an unbelievable amount of food for one person to eat (even some of his more bigger regulars usually shared his giant creations with a few friends at least), so it was easy to assume it was just cause her stomach was so full. But this morning, he was sweeping up the floor when she came in, so he got to watch her immense form waddle past him to her personal “chair”, and it was very obvious that her flabby stomach was pushing a few inches past her massive chest.

He eagerly jumped over to his computer to see the number on the scale jump up to 368 pounds, probably at least 3 times her weight than when she first came to his bakery! He stepped in to check on her to find her already stuffing her face like always, and was happy to see that her wobbling cheeks were getting very close to having to squeeze between the armrests of the loveseat. Her legs, each thigh easily thicker than her old tiny waist, were spread wide to make room for her sagging belly that was seeping down and only about a foot from the ground.

These days when she was asked to model underwear, she had to very noticeably lift her belly so the front of the panties could even be seen - a regular sight on her instagram that Wade enjoyed far too much. Because even when standing, her growing, greedy belly was creeping closer and closer to covering half of her thighs, when it wasn’t tucked into her shorts that is

Though, not everyone was excited to watch her growth as Wade. As her weight began to push closer to the 400 mark, even some of her more dedicated fans were beginning to worry. It was also very clear that she was slowly becoming less of a symbol of body positivity and more of a symbol for people like Wade. Gone were the majority of the (positive) comments pausing her for her confidence and bravery, and in came the wave of comments that talked in depth about how they wanted to be crushed under her belly or watch a video of her eating those large treats she posts about every morning. And considering how she would frequently like and occasionally even respond to the more doable responses with dedicated posts, it seemed like she didn’t exactly mind it.

It was on the two year mark of Kiki coming into his bakery for the first time that Wade looked over at his computer to see that the once skinny girl had officially crossed the 400 pound mark while stuffing her face with a 5-tier wedding cake that was supposed to be serving 40 people at an outdoor wedding before a storm got it postponed. Wade peaked in on her to see both of her hips pressed up tightly against the armrests of the loveseat, not that Kiki seemed to notice as she was too busy eating more cake for breakfast than any human should be able to eat throughout a couple weeks.

The wedding cake proved to be quite the challenge for her though, as she ended up having to spend an extra three hours in the back of his store as she forced herself to keep going despite the fact that it was getting to be so much that she was working up a sweat and panting heavily just from the action of eating.

For the first time in a long time, Kiki wasn’t able to just stand up and walk out after completing her “breakfast”, as she was pinned under the weight of her overstuffed stomach that was struggling to process more food than it ever had before. Even as Wade had flipped the sign and was starting to prepare everything for the morning, Kiki struggled to lean back in her “shrinking chair” and rub her angry stomach in a feeble attempt to sooth it.

When it got to the point where Wade was ready to leave for the day, he worked up the courage to offer to help Kiki to her car. The fat girl’s face lit up as she eagerly accepted his offer, but that face was soon dripping with sweat and struggling to breathe once more as it proved to be more difficult than either expected to get her off the couch. It took a few minutes, but they finally managed to work up enough momentum to get her into a standing position, but then she needed a moment to catch her breath.

The entire trip to her car, Kiki was leaning heavily on Wade as ever so slowly walked to her car while making frequent stops for Kiki to catch her breath again. But as much as she was struggling, Wade was currently on cloud nine and enjoying every second. Her round, plush body was pressed against him and feeling her breast slowly press against his chest again and again in beat with her uneven breaths was sending him over the edge.

When they finally made it to her car, he was shocked to see that it was just a small little Beetle, but he was even more shocked to just watch her struggle to force her obesse and jiggling form into the cramped front seat. Before she drove off, Wade decided to let her know that there’s a restricted parking area specifically for employees of the shopping district right behind his store, and that he was more than willing to help her get the proper access so that she no longer had to walk “so far” from the public parking area. Kiki struggled to smile between pants and offered her thanks, saying she would love for Wade to do that for her.

The added bonus that Kiki loved and Wade didn't even think about was that he just gave her a way to get in and out of his bakery without anyone seeing her. Any boundaries she might have not crossed for the sake of keeping up with her public appearance was about to be broken.
