Chapter 87: Reality? What's That? Sothing to Eat? [side Yukari Tomonaga]
I steeled myself and... stepped onto the scale!
It hasn't changed, but I'll do it slowly and gently.
I squeeze my eyes shut tight.
What should I do? Should I round it off?
Should I open my eyes just once...?
That's weird. Is the scale broken?
How is it usually? With shorts, bra, and camisole, it's minus 700g, right? I'm naked now, but... if I just wear shorts, can't I judge it as minus 700g?
No, that's weird, isn't it?
On the scale, in digital numbers, it shows...
64.0kg
Huh? That's strange. Last month, in early November, I hit my best record of 49.9kg, and now it's 64.0...?
It's only been one month since then, right?
14kg?
Early December... 64.0kg?
Haha, no way—?
Oh, right.
Since I'm rounding off, I'll drop the 4!
So my weight is about 60kg, right?
※ She has started escaping reality, but she understands it correctly.
Click!
I take a selfie.
Around the ti of the beauty contest, I was so thrilled with my figure that I took a lot of selfies, sothing I'd never done before.
I tried taking one from the sa angle...
"...Different... Completely different..."
I mutter to myself without realizing it...
First, my face shape is completely different...
And my jawline is dramatically different.
I had a vague feeling sothing was off...
After dieting, the new uniform I tailored for the beauty contest felt a bit tight.
Well, I'm wearing it after two weeks, right?
Since it's still new and hasn't broken in, it feels kind of stiff, I guess. That's what I thought...
Shocked, I put on my clothes, sit in my room, and hug my knees.
How did this happen?
It's not because of Kuzu-kun's cakes, is it?
Is it because the food is so tasty that I stopped limiting white rice?
Is it because I let loose on a lot of things during my suspension?
Mother: "Yukari—dinner's ready!"
Still in a daze, I head to the kitchen, take my seat, and eat dinner...
Mother: "There's no point in moping, right? Let's try again. Today, it's your favorite, grilled at!"
Even at a ti like this, grilled at is delicious...
Father: "Co on, cheer up! I bought cake! Let's all eat it after dinner, okay?"
Even at a ti like this, shortcake is delicious...
Father: "Here, I'll even give you Papa's share..."
The second cake is delicious too...!
Little Sister: "Papa and Mama, you're way too soft on older sister! You need to be stricter, or it won't help her!"
Mama: "Now, now. Older sister is shocked too, you know..."
Little Sister: "It's her own fault, isn't it!"
My parents and little sister are arguing, but right now, I don't care...
I thought that even if I gained a little weight, I could just lose it again.
If it's just a few kilos, I can run again, do strength training, right?
Restrict my diet, right?
But, going from 50 to 64 in just one month...
I thought it'd be at most 5kg or sothing.
If it were around 55kg... but those last 5kg are so hard to lose at the end of a diet, I thought.
No, 64kg is basically 60kg DAY ONE!!
I absentmindedly stuff myself with grilled at, eat two servings of rice, eat two cakes, and then go to bed in a huff.
※ Yukari has stopped thinking.

Final exam problems
The next day.
I have a problem.
...Isn't a student's main duty to study?
※ I've decided not to think about my weight.
Second day after suspension. Even though finals are next week, there are still a lot of things I don't understand in class...
...To be honest, since right before the cultural festival, I've been too caught up in romance with Kuzu-kun, and I left so things I didn't understand as they were, so now the things I don't get have just piled up...
On top of that, I don't have notes from the classes during my suspension...
I have so handouts, but for so subjects, they're complete gibberish to .
Kuzu-kun seems to be in the sa boat...
I'm in a pinch!
Hokusho is still a preparatory school, and they're strict about failing grades.
In my current state, the final exams are a huge pinch!
So, you see?
Osada: "Eh? I did say I'd 'help you out just once,' didn't I?
...Are you serious? You're using it here?"
"Yes! Since the final exams are tough, 'Please lend your notes for all subjects! And teach how to study!'"
That's my request!
Osada-san looks flustered,
Osada: "Hmm, well, fine. I did say it. But, lending notes and teaching are two requests, right? Even my notes are super popular because they're so well-organized, you know? And teaching isn't sothing that can be done in just an hour, right? Pick one... Even Shenron would say no to two wishes like that, you know?"
I didn't collect seven star balls or anything.
"Then, the notes. If I were Shenron, I wouldn't make a request like this."
Osada: "...It's wrong to compare to Shenron, and it's annoying. But, I never would've guessed you'd imdiately ask for notes with that 'help you out once' thing. That's way out of left field... Hey, are you sure about this?"
"Right now, the power I need is academics, so...?"
Osada: "...I thought you'd co to about being ostracized in class, or your bad reputation, or sothing about Kuzu, but... ugh, you're hopeless."
Osada-san let copy all kinds of her notes.
Even so, there are still parts I don't understand when I read the copied notes.
Since asking for explanations would be another request, I can't use that anymore...
I dive into studying, painfully aware that the final exams are going to be tough...
※ Unconsciously started eating while studying! Weight increases further.

Thank you for the 33 comnts.
Yesterday's Yukari weight quiz answer was 64kg!
Initially, I considered 65kg, but to depict the confusion of escaping reality by rounding not just the decimal but down to the tens place, it beca 64kg.
I was impressed that so many people guessed 65kg; it's amazing how you can deduce it.
The most common guess was by 6 people (lol)
There were 2 correct answers.
