“
“You’ll get fat if you sleep right after you eat.” Hermes said jokingly.
“Wanna see if that’s actually true? I wouldn’t mind putting on some weight every now and then.”
“If a fat person heard you say that, they’d get real angry at you, Kino.”
“Then I’ll gain weight in secret or something. I’ll be back soon, so just sit tight.”
“All right. I’ll take a shower or something while you’re gone.”
“Why don’t you take one for me, too?”
With that, Kino left Hermes in her room and headed for the hotel restaurant.
She returned in a matter of seconds.
“That was way too fast, Kino. Did you remember to chew properly? Did you finish swallowing?”
“No, Hermes. I ran into a bellboy as soon as I stepped out.”
“Oh? What did he say?”
“That I can’t eat at the hotel restaurant.”
“Why not?”
“One of those drunk customers back there called up a bunch of his friends and started a party. The kitchen’s running out of ingredients.”
“In other words, this is a message from the heavens telling you to lose weight. Good night, Kino.”
“I think the message is actually telling me to gorge myself. As an apology, they told me about a restaurant in the area that the hotel owner also manages. They already contacted them in advance, so I can eat whatever I like, as much as I like.”
