your spine hits the cold floor, sure to leave another subtle bruise- a new addition to the collection of purple blotches marking your backside in memory of excessive sit-ups.

the ceiling blurred,
and you were battling against the dizzy, spinning haze of exhaustion—

but contentment and pleasure.

the thrilling satisfaction of being in control.

the sensation of calories shredding off your body.

the dire need to continue was concerningly stimulating.

you needed to do more.

you had to.

you needed to be skinny.

someone knocked on your door.

"haechan? i think- oh- the door's locked? that's new."

don't show him, hyuck.
don't let him know of our game.

you jolted to your feet, knees nearly buckling as you aimed for the door, still lightheaded from the extra rep.

"coming," you croaked, throat dry and hoarse.

You slide the door to reveal one of your leads of thinspiration.

"hey haechan! i think i left my jacket here?"

"oh, right...it's on the floor, i think."

he caught sight of the garment on your unkempt floor, his face twisting in an ugly grimace.

"it's a hellhole in here, haechan."

he brushed any dirt that was left on his jacket and slung it over his shoulder. "also, we're going out for hot pot later tonight, you coming?"

Calculating...

packet of steamboat broth:
1500 calories.
high in fat and oil.

boiled pork belly:
250 calories
saturated fat. fat. fat. fat.

processed meats:
1 medium meatball: 81 calories
1 medium fishball: 60 calories, 109 when fried.
1 cuttlefish ball: 25
sodium. cholesterol. fat.

chili paste:
1 tablespoon: 65 calories
fried with oil.

how revolting.

you knew vegetables were to be served, but the fat in the broth alone was enough to churn your stomach. each ingredient multiplied the digits until you lost count.

the numbers daunted you.

they far exceeded limits.

nonetheless, the hour has long past eating curfew.
you would've declined the invite even if it was a mere salad bar anyway.

i miss eating hot pot together.
