Dealer's Choice - Ah My Goddess WG - 05

Sayoko had been going about it all wrong.

She had forgotten just how potent Belldandy’s magnetic personality was when she had concocted her first scheme, but this time would be different. If Belldandy drew her strength of character from the  people around her, it was simply a matter of isolating her instead. Being a social butterfly herself, Sayoko knew what menial, repetitive  labour without contact could do to a person’s mood as well as their waistline and it would only be a matter of time before Belldandy broke down in tears.

Oh, how she would relish that day.

“You’ve got a new position for me?”

“Yes, yes, of course Bell,” Sayoko said dismissively as they walked side by side after exiting her double wide limousine. “It’s a job which only you can do.”

“If it’s a job just for me then I would be more than happy to put my heart and soul into it!”

“Yeah, I know you will just love it here...”

The job was simple; a bakery position requiring her to wake up at an ungodly hour to bake in solitude. The process would mess with her sleep schedule, put her well within arms reach of endless amounts of food and leave her so exhausted and hungry that she would have no choice but to eat on the job. She could not wait for Belldandy’s sparkling personality to fade and dull with the lack of mental stimulation as she shut off her brain, rolling out fattening, carb loaded goodies for customers she would never see.

Sayoko made sure to provide her with all of the ‘company perks’ of course including extra rolls for her breakfast, multiple mid-shift meals and plenty of free food at the end of each day. She insisted that taste testing was an essential part of the position of course, something which Belldandy’s rapidly expanding waistline had proven overly qualified to handle.

“Well then, I’ll leave you to it! I’ll check on you after a month! Don’t disappoint me now, Bell…”

As Sayoko had predicted, Belldandy had settled into her routine as she poured her jello-like proportions into her work station. With food surrounding her at all times and strict orders to taste everything to perfection, the already obese goddess’ form swelled by leaps and bounds in all directions.

The oversized uniform she used to wear at the convenience store looked comedically small on her oversized belly which hung well over her pants and onto the floured surface of the table where she rolled out the dough. Sometimes, she would get so caught up in her work that she would roll the bread out on top of her gut as she fattened more by the day. Cookies and starchy foods were having a great impact as her face rounded out further, giving her a prominent triple chin where a double could no longer suffice and jiggled with every breathy bite she took.

The month passed by in an instant as she spent all her free time eating, waddling to and from work and eating some more. Her naturally pale skin appeared to be even paler as she rarely saw the sun and was clearly visible as she outgrew every new uniform she was given on a weekly basis.

Sayoko marveled at just how well her plan had worked to ruin Belldandy’s body, but was disappointed to see that her efforts had failed to even put a dent in her spirit, let alone crush it.

“Oh Sayoko, hi!” Belldandy chirped in her usual, pleasant sing-song voice. “It’s not often that I get many visitors since I started so this makes your visit extra special!”

Sayoko’s jaw almost dropped at the sight of her. Belldandy had grown GIGANTIC. Her cheeks were large and puffy, forming crevasses and caverns that rolled down the steps of fat where her chins and neck had fused together. Big, doughy arms almost as wide around as a regular woman’s waistline bulged from the sleeves of an overstretched T-shirt that clung to the rolls of fat at her back. Her gigantic belly, so volumous and huge covered almost the entire length of the metal table she was working on, counterbalanced only by the enormity of her hips and thighs which stretched a pair of incredibly stretchy sweatpants to their limit.

It’s like nothing ever kept this girl down. Despite looking like she had gained nearly another couple of hundred pounds, she moved with as much grace as her enormous body would allow her too as she waddled between the different stations she was in charge of.

“A-aren’t you tired? Hungry? Lonely?” Sayoko asked incredulously as she surveyed the beaming face she expected to be long fatigued and stressed from her isolation.

“Nope!” Belldandy smiled cheerily as she set about rolling out the next batch of loaves for the oven. “I make sure to get plenty of rest and I get a lot of energy from all the bread I make. There are spirits which reside even with food and if we give them our thanks, then they are more than happy to imbue us with the energy we need!”

“Y-you...pray...to the ingredients?” Sayoko said, astonished. “You have the time to do that?”

“Of course! I do hope you’ll excuse the mess but I’ve gotten into a bit of a routine so I’ll be working while we talk. I wouldn’t want anyone to miss out on their meals.”

Sayoko quickly flipped through the order logs she had kept on her phone. Sure enough, she had assigned Belldandy an impossible quota to fulfil and somehow she had not only hit every order, but surpassed it. Judging by the size of her, it was clear where all that surplus was going but for a single woman as large as she was to be that productive, meant she must have gotten outside help.

“W-what about your husband? Surely, he must be missing you. I’m sure you two haven’t seen each other in a very long time and that must be putting a strain on your marriage.”

It was difficult for Sayoko to try and hide the venom in her words as she allowed them to roll off her tongue. Belldandy didn’t take any notice.

“Not at all! I still have enough time to get home and make him his meals for each day in advance. I would never allow my dear Keiichi to go hungry and thanks to you, we’ve got more than enough bread to keep us fed for a long time! We’ve saved so much money on groceries.”

Those words seemed so foreign coming out of the mouth of a girl who looked like she emptied entire supermarkets on a daily basis. Sayoko estimated that she had to have been well over 600 pounds by this point, possibly cresting on 700. Rather than allow her fat to be an impediment to her progress, she was quite happily using every inch of her excess to roll and flatten enough dough to quadruple production and still appear to make the process look easy.

“H-how…” was all Sayoko could muster as she felt her knees buckle underneath her.

“With love, of course,” Belldandy smiled back kindly. “If you love what you do and the people who you are working for, then their love also comes back to you. I put all my feelings into my cooking and when I eat, those feelings are repaid to me more than I could ever hope for. It’s what my love for Keiichi has also taught me since he makes me feel special every day so I go the extra mile for him and all of our customers too.”

Of course she would say that. Sayoko slumped to her knees as her strength finally gave out. This wasn’t an act for anyone and there was no one to impress who could overhear them. In the depth of that laborious job, Belldandy was being 100% honest with her and only her.

“B-but you’re so...big…”

“And I have all your delicious food to thank for that,” Belldandy beamed cheerily. “Keiichi loves every new inch of me I could never have done this when I was smaller so I thank you for giving me a new experience! Working can be such fun!”

Sayoko grit her teeth as she shakily got back up. She had thought her grudge long buried with age but that indomitable attitude stoked the embers of their former rivalry.

If isolation could not break her and her husband had no problem with her size, then there was only one thing left to do; she would have to expose her to the harsh truth of society in the cruelest way possible.

“Say, Bell, what do you say to a promotion for all your hard work?”
