Everything seemed to be … back to normal for Hanako Arasaka.
Her father was back, at the expense of her brother’s life.
Utilizing Secure Your Soul, Saburo Arasaka was walking amidst the living once again, within the body of his son.
She was happy to see him back, but at the cost of her brother?
The pain stung deep, Hanako never had the proper chance to mourn her brother, and so she would, in her own private way.
“What happened to your brother was most unfortunate but avoidable, had he shared my vision for Arasaka.”
—were the first words her father had said to her when Saburo rose back to life.
“You were always my favorite child for a reason, Hanako.
Our shared vision, and ambitions.
Arasaka needs a new CEO and I cannot think of a better person than my own daughter.”
She was the public spokesperson for Arasaka, and the acting CEO after the Fourth-Corporate War but it seemed like this was going to be different.
For as long as she lived, she would be the CEO—and her father would help from behind the scenes.
Hanako would be foolish to accept, this is all she wanted—to preserve the vision her father had, to keep Arasaka’s grip on the world tight and unwavering.
To keep the family united.
Doing all of these things was impossible.
Back in the Arasaka Estate, in North Oak—Hanako privately mourned her brother, a set of candles, lit with a picture of Yorinobu on the left, Saburo on the right, and herself in the middle.
Hanako prayed, a few minutes would pass before she sat on her knees and stood up once again. A bow of respect before she left the room, closing the door behind her. Stepping outside, a breeze of fresh air blowing past her visage—blossom leaves flying with the wind. A deep breath in, and a deep breath out.
The day was long, and there was much to be done as the new CEO of Arasaka but—mourning her brother was a time-exhausting task. Hanako neglected her own body, the evidence was clear as her stomach let out a low growl that only she could hear.
Letting out a sigh, before she walked the estate and found two guards who were chitchatting through their shifts, immediately straightening up at the presence of her.
“We apologize for our insolence!
To what do we owe the honor?”
The two were nervous, they were recently stationed here, Hanako could tell. This was their first time seeing the lady up-close.
“You need not be so nervous. I do not blame you for finding a way to pass the time.”
“I do require your services. I have yet to eat, and dinner will not be ready until later.
Do you suggest anything … around here in Night City?”
The two guards looked at one another, before turning back to Hanako.
“There is this one place.”
“A hamburger place called Nino’s House.
We go there when we are having lunch.”
“You will not regret it, madam. The best hamburgers within Night City.”
Hamburgers sounded good, but in reality—anything sounded good.
“Very well, I will take your advice and have this for lunch.
Go, and get me some … ‘burgers’ then.”
Hanako ordered, to which the guards looked at one another once again, before their gaze returned to Hanako again.
“Do you want anything in particular, madam?”
“I do not know this … Nino’s House so … surprise me.”
The two guards nodded in unison before walking down the estate, towards the estate exit. Normally, Hanako would settle for the Japanese cuisine that would be made during dinner time but she hadn’t eaten anything, she needed something to sustain her appetite.
30 minutes would pass, Hanako waited within the estate. She passed the time by admiring the fish within the pond she kept, lots of colored carp within that swam around.
“Hanako-sama, we have returned.”
The voice of one familiar man interrupted her daydreaming, looking up at the two guards with her food in hand.
Sealed in a plastic bag, with the name—Nino’s House on the side.
They gave her the bag of food, and stepped to the side.
“Here is your food, madam.
We understand you have not eaten all day, so we bought you a few more items to sate your hunger.”
“Thank you. You two have done well, you are dismissed—return to your posts.”
The two guards would then resume their patrol within the gardens of the estate, leaving Hanako to herself. Her golden tipped-digits would pry the bag open, only to be met with sensational aroma.
Hanako took a deep whiff of the food and then exhaled.
“Finally, the food smells good. This will hopefully sate my hunger.”
Hanako would grab a hold of a burger, feeling its weight in her hand. It was quite hefty, and must have been a big piece of meat paired with many other things.
Hanako would drop the burger back into the bag, and make her way deeper into the estate.
The raven-haired woman would walk on over to her living quarters that were deep within the estate, opening the shoji doors to her home.
Here, she would be able to eat in peace.
Taking a moment to admire the elegant, japanese-aesthetically styled house that belonged to the Arasaka heiress.
Taking her heels off and leaving them by the door, it was tradition—of course.
Making her way to the living room and placing her bag down on the table that was low to the ground. Hanako would sit on her knees and would take the contents within the bag out.
These contents contained the following.
Two Double Bacon Hamburgers that had fried onions, pickles, lettuce, melted cheese and a slice of tomato.
Two large sets of fries that were made with a rich, cajun seasoning.
A large vanilla milkshake, thicker than Hanako herself.
Finally, a ten piece-set of crispy chicken nuggets.
She observed the food on her platter and decided to begin with the burger first, a firm grip on the buns. Hanako observed the burger in her hands, besides the aroma that teased her—it looked to be perfectly made.
Buns were perfectly toasted, minimal grease fell from the patty.
Better to indulge, rather than to overthink.
Hanako opened her mouth, and took a bite out of the burger. Her eyes would widen as she chewed, never has she tasted something like this … this was …
Well said, she swallowed the piece in her mouth—and quickly took another bite out of the burger. This would definitely sate her hunger, no doubt—the only problem with this burger is that it was very filling.
A few bites and Hanako already felt full from one burger, but there was still the second burger, and the fries, and the milkshake, and the chicken nuggets left to go!
She could simply preserve the food in a container but would it taste as good? Most likely not, Hanako didn’t think twice.
She quickly unwrapped the second burger and took a fresh bite out of it—the flavor was unbelievable …
“Mmm, so good yet so filling.
Not everything can be perfect.”
Taking another bite out of the burger, and swallowing the piece down, a little corner piece was all that was left now.
Which Hanako quickly devoured …
Her stomach grew tight from the two burgers already, Hanako’s body was not used to having this much food in her system.
Her stomach would slightly protrude out from the luxurious white dress she wore.
Anyone on the estate would notice her tummy sticking out. She was always slim, paired with some curves but overall still skinny.
Her palm grazed her stomach region, giving it a gentle rub—before she grabbed the milkshake, perhaps this will calm her stomach down?
The cold, thick shake may do the job.
Her lips would settle on the straw, sucking and pulling hard—before a creamy, thick, sweet, milk-like liquid entered her mouth.
“Why has this food evaded me all my life?”
Hanako huffed, deep breaths in between ingesting the thick-milkshake—her stomach only grew more angry with her, gurgling and growling noises emitting from her gut as it only grew in size. Her stomach said no, but Hanako said yes.
Yes to Nuggets, and yes to the milkshake.
How she became so gluttonous off of one bite from the burger was … a mystery but Hanako couldn’t care less at the moment.
All she cared about was eating.
And so she would, for the next 30 minutes—Hanako would stuff her face with the remaining items.
The fries were gone, the nuggets devoured—the milkshake was long gone.
Hanako rested in her bed, having removed her luxurious dress—now being in her undergarments, a black bra, paired with a slick black thong.
Her hands were resting on her belly, maybe rubs would help the pain, Hanako thought.
Her hands would rub around the lower region of her stomach, gently and carefully.
It didn’t do much at first.
Hanako could feel something starting to build up in her throat before oh so suddenly—
Hanako gasped, trying to catch her breath. How informal of her—if anyone spotted her, they would look at her like she was … a pig but Hanako was alone.
The burping helped when it came to alleviating the pain, it seemed like rubbing her belly—caused the burps to come out more.
Hanako stood from her bed with slight-ease before standing up, looking at herself in a mirror.
The young mistress looked as if she was early on in her pregnancy journey.
“I would look good pregnant.”
A slight comment, she loved her slim body shape—but Hanako wouldn’t mind maybe … perhaps … putting on a few more pounds if it meant looking like this.
Another burp escaped the maw of the Japanese woman, a sigh of relief as she could feel her stomach begin to ease up. The tightness on her upper stomach region began to soften.
“Finally … this pain … it’s settling down.”
Hanako muttered to herself, she leaned against the wall—taking a moment to relax, occasionally rubbing her stomach.
Having someone rub her stomach would have been nice, but—nobody can know about this …
About her new-found love for gluttony.
