"Hey, Chi. Can you pass me the jam please?"
"...Yeah, sure."
"The bottle of orange juice is nearly empty, I will have to stock up on it. Now, then."
"...Say, Futako."
"Mnh?"
"Aren't you eating a bit too much?"
"You think so?" Futako stopped dipping her buttered, jam-dripping toast in her mug of sweet hot chocolate and looked up at Chiisana.
It was around an hour after they had some 'fun' and they were currently eating breakfast in Futako's house backyard under a parasol. Both were sitting at a simple wooden table on benches. Laid on the table in front of them was a variety of food suitable to start the day, such as white bread toast, colorful fruit jam, cereals, and several sugary beverages.
Eating at such a place was a habit the two of them had taken during summer break. There had not been a single day of rain since the start of the break so, while that fact was bad for the environment, this allowed the two girls to enjoy the start of the day under the glare of the sun.
As stated, Chiisana had freeloaded her way into getting a free breakfast every day. She was more of the type to start the day with something light in the stomach so it was not like she had put a dent in Futako's wallet and allowance, though.
Regardless of how much she ate herself, she would always accompany Futako for this moment. Futako was, despite her meek behavior, an active girl. She enjoyed working out in general and staying fit and healthy. The quantity she ate was slightly more than the average girl's breakfast while still being in a reasonable quantity.
However just like Chiisana had pointed out, it looked like Futako was trying to compensate for the two of them.
Chiisana raised an eyebrow and lowered the other. She circled the edge of her cup of black coffee with her fingertip. "Are you preparing for an event or something? You already finished the loaf of bread from the other day, cleaned up the pot of cherry jam, and basically drank more milk than a calf. Generally, what you ate the past two days lasts you a whole week. Wait, if I remember correctly that's not even the same type of bread in the first place. Did you finish the last one?"
Futako stopped in her tracks, her body slouched forward aiming for the toast of bread covered in peanut butter and soaked with the milk of her cereals. Her two eyes focused on Chiisana and her mouth clamped shut. "...Wait, you really think I'm eating too much? Come to think of it I seem to be hungrier than usual recently. I generally eat until I'm satiated, but my stomach feels like a bottomless pit today."
Chiisana glanced at her for a few seconds before sipping from her cup of freshly brewed coffee. "I would say if you are hungry, eat. You might want to consume something more nutritious than highly processed sugary food like that though."
Futako felt conflicted upon hearing Chiisana's words. The hand holding the delicious piece of toast full of carbs trembled in front of the dilemma of whether to bring it or not to her mouth or put it down.
"Just eat it, you dolt. Just think of it for next time."
Futako obeyed and chomped on it, happily enjoying the taste.
