After Mashauva told Cassie about her worries, she was even more determined to lose weight.

Her winter break had come to an end, and before Mashauva had to go back to school, she stepped onto the scale. Dejected, she had only lost about five pounds. "Mom, how is it that I've only lost five pounds?"

She held her head, upset.

"It's already a feat to be able to lose five pounds in such a short time. Do you think everyone can lose five pounds so easily?"

Cassie pinched Mashauva's cheek and said softly, "You can rush losing your weight. Take it a step at a time. Otherwise, it'll just do your body more harm than good." "Alright."

Mashauva could only nod.

"When you return to school, you have to be like when you're at home. Don't skip your meals, you hear me? Eat less high-calorie food and drink less sweet beverages." "Okay."

Mashauva knew all too well that they were

enemies of weight loss. Besides having high calories, they were not nutritious at all. Most importantly, overconsumption

of confectionery would lead to diabetes.

Sugary drinks and desserts were a big no- no in Mashauva's weight loss plan.

However, as she hadn't had any chocolate and cotton candy since she began her plan, she craved them badly. Oh, how she wished she could eat them.

But she couldn't give in to temptation.

When the school reopened, Bruno and Freddy came to pick Mashauva up.

Noticing her at a glance, both of them were stunned for a moment before the light in Freddy's eyes dimmed.

Mashauva had shed a couple of pounds. Sure enough, the trip had affected her.

The fact that Mashauva had lost five pounds was not apparent, but they had not seen each other for a while, so they could still tell her face had become a tad bit shapely.

Tacitly, no one brought it up. However, their journey to Mashauva's school was deadly silent.
