Help out! I Want Skinny

Part 13's. Too Early to Stop

Marisa wishes she had heard wrongly or was dreaming. Pinched fat folds at the waist. Feels sick. It means it's not a dream.

Seeing Marisa's behavior made Samuel want to laugh amusedly, but tried to hold her.

"How long have you been dating?" ask Marisa pilu.

"Two years."

"Why don't you like women, Sam?"

"Who said? I like women too."

"Ha! Your greed. It's not healthy for you, Sam," said Marisa.

"Why?"

"Why not pick just one!"

"If there are two, why one?" challenge Samuel.

"Sin knows!" marisa Cibir.

"Well, I'll choose Brandon then."

"Come, Dude. You should choose the woman."

"I don't really like women. It was just for fun. I prefer men" explained Samuel calmly.

"Why could that be? There must be a reason. I once read an article that said that the cause could be wrong parenting or ever hurt by women. Looks like you're not the wrong parenting pattern. Is it for the other reason?"

"Hhmm" muttered Samuel.

"Tell me, Sam. Maybe I can help. There may be hope" said Marisa, clasping Samuel's hands and looking at him with sympathy as if the man in front of her was facing death.

Samuel looked at the woman in front of him doubtfully, then let out a long sigh and then began to tell a story.

"Last years I fell in love with a very beautiful, kind, and jolly woman. We were very close friends at first, until I realized that I was in love with her. People say, from friends to girlfriends it is terrible. If the best friend fights can still be good again, but the quarrel with the boyfriend will usually break up easily and worse after becoming an ex, let alone to return to being a friend. Not even a word of mouth.

"Fear of that is what makes me feel. I never expressed the love I had for her. I love him in the form of a friend, even though my race is more than a friend. Over time, she married another man and lived happily. That's it." Samuel ends the story.

Marisa's hand was weakened and then released. The two look at each other. Marisa could see the pain in Samuel's eyes.

"Who is he, Sam? You never told me when we were so close. If you had told me this from the beginning, I would have supported you. All your girlfriends I know. Your sababat is also my best friend. I'll just talk to that woman, it's over. Oh, for Christ's sake! How can you hide a secret of this magnitude from me, Sam? Tell me who he is!" marisa said with trembling lips.

"For what else? Too late. He belongs to someone." Samuel smiled bitterly.

'I will poison the woman who has made my best friend's future so ruined, ' Marisa said in her heart.

Marisa covered her face with both hands. His mind wandered back into the past. Trying to remember all the important events, then relate them one by one.

"Hey! Don't think about it any more" said Samuel.

Marisa flinched consciously. At that moment his phone rang. From Arjun. Marisa stood up and moved away from Samuel to answer the call.

Samuel looked at Marisa from a distance. The heavy burden that rests in the heart is slightly reduced.

"Sam, I'll go home first. Next time we connect. Bang Arjun came home" Marisa explained after hanging up the phone.

***

Arjun spent two days at home. Children prefer to continue their vacation at their grandparents' house rather than going home.

"I thought you were getting a little thin when I came back, it was the same. Maybe an ounce doesn't decrease" Arjun told Marisa while they were home.

"My weight has diminished a lot. Your eyes are myopic. When the hell did you stop blaming my size!" sergeant Marisa.

"Is it hard to lose weight? Very well carry a car cart everywhere. Unless I ask for something bad, it's natural that you're angry. This is what I mean good. Do you want to be like my mom? Her fat crotch was intermittently in the hospital. Doctors always order to maintain diet, lose weight, and do not eat a lot of sweet. If the person does not want to change a healthier life, want any medicine does not work."

"I'm healthy, Bang! When did I go to the hospital because of cholesterol or because of a heart attack, or high blood pressure, or diabetes, ha? Exaggerate you," hardik Marisa.

"Oh, so you want to wait for events like my mama just changed. Didn't he? If it's happened like that I'm a fool with you, you know!" arjun toilet.

"I pray for you Bang, someday your body will also grow bigger and round like a panda. The husband has no ahlak. Remember Bang, the prayer of the persecuted is effective."

That was how the first day they met was colored by quarrels. Arjun is always busy in front of the screen of a mobile phone or laptop taking care of work, and Marisa also will not greet her husband other than for important things.

Since the last noodle eating incident, Marisa can no longer start her diet as she used to. When he weighed his body, he was surprised. Not a week he messed up his diet, his weight soared up to 77 kg. Impossible to think Marisa. Time and time again he weighed, the result remained the same.

The next day Arjun returns out of town on a job.

Marisa then complained to Samuel about her quarrel with Arjun when Samuel came to Marisa's house. While Marisa was sobbing, Samuel looked at Marisa with a cold look. He made no comment on the couple's commotion, but instead asked, "How heavy are you now?"

Marisa gasps. Biting his lips and looking down.

"How, Ca?" Samuel was still waiting for Marisa's answer.

There's no point in keeping quiet. Marisa was sure Samuel could definitely see that she looked fatter now.

"Seventy-seven kilograms, Sam," he answered almost inaudibly.

"Can we get heavier? Has it come down a lot?"

"Yes, Sam. I'm also surprised, or maybe it's heavy on sin, huh? I've been lying a lot lately."

Samuel took a breath. "Reason .... What are you eating this week?"

"Mmc .... Everyone," said Marisa shyly. "Honestly I don't eat that much either. I don't know why I could go up so fast. I thought I'd start the diet again like from the beginning, but it's hard to repeat." Marisa gave a reason.

"You're too quick to feel happy about the loss of nine pounds in the first 12 days of your diet. I warned you of the dangers of cheating, but you didn't take it seriously. Carbohydrates in the body bind to water. When your body no longer receives carbohydrates, then the fluid can not be bound finally out through urine. In this phase you will often urinate and sometimes dizziness. Therefore, this diet is recommended to drink a lot so as not to dehydrate and the kidneys also stay healthy.

"So the first 12 kg that came out was new fluid stored in the body. Ever heard of water not? Like that's about this fat type of body, ma'am. Soft kayak jelly, not solid. So for the fat itself there's no wasted, Ca. Poor thing, you.

"Well, when you eat a high-carbo meal your body automatically holds back any more water that enters the body. If you were consistent with your diet, then you will enter the fat burning phase. For fat removal is quite long usually, so weight loss is also not drastic as at the beginning of the diet," explained Samuel at length.

Listen to Samuel's explanation. Marisa is relieved. He promised to return to discipline in the diet, and he really did.
