Hey, Kasumi, I've got these tickets to an all-you-can-eat buffet. Want to come with me?

Wait, all you can eat?! Is that true, Ayumu?

I REALLY want to go! What kind of buffet is it?

Ah, it's a strawberry buffet. Apparently, it's got all sorts of cakes and parfaits and the like using a bunch of different strawberries.

A bunch of different strawberries? Cakes and parfaits?

*Giggle* Just imagining it makes me want to run over and eat it up! When are we going, Ayumu?

We'll need to talk and find a day all three of us can go.

Really, she's coming, too?! All right!

Yeah, I'm looking forward to it.

I'm a really big eater, so she's probably going to laugh at me again.

Ayumu, you've…been to places like this with her before, right? I mean, you have been friends since you were little.

Just once. We both saved up our pocket money. It was a chocolate buffet, and I ate so much I gave her a real surprise!

Urgh. W-Well, I eat a HUGE amount, too!

Oh, yeah? Well, sweets are super tasty.

It's not every day we get to go to a buffet, so maybe I should diet a little bit before. Then I won't have to hold back when we eat there.

(This is it! The perfect chance to make Ayumu chubby!)

Karin told me that this low-carb diet thing is popular lately, have you heard of it?

Er, is that the one where you eat less rice and noodles and stuff?

But Ayumu, you're really slim! You don't need to bother with that!

Well, I'm going to have to get a bit fitter if I want to dance right. Okay, no more rice for lunch from tomorrow on! A morning half bowl, and salad and tofu for dinner.

Huh? That seems a bit extreme.

That might not be enough, though. I'll have to run every day and add in more strength training.

Um, um, Ayumu, you're going to collapse if you go that far.

I'll run up and down the school staircase, and then…

[Fade in/out.]

Oh, no, you're going to make yourself sick! Okay, I'll make sure you don't eat too much in the buffet, and I'll help you diet if you do, so calm it down!
