Ming rubbed her slightly bulging belly. The bulge wasn’t from a big breakfast; she had slept in that morning and had to skip it. Her belly was the result of years of big meals and snacking in-between. She was famished but there was nothing she could do. Ming was the school bus driver for Oakvale Middle School and simply being hungry wasn’t a good enough excuse to skip work.
She had planned to fix something light. A couple buttermilk pancakes, a few dozen sausage links, an omelet, a small ham, and maybe some grape fruit to polish it off….. and a snickers bar dipped in peanut butter. Not the ‘fun sized’ ones, the REAL ones. It would have tided her over for an hour or two (she had a fast metabolism. It was what kept her chubby and not mammoth sized). Ming smacked her lips, her cheeks quivering slightly. Her belly grumbled, disappointed at missing out on its light breakfast. Now it would have to wait till brunch…… Or would it?
The young teens she drove to Oakvale looked pretty tasty. Maybe one or two of them to settle her stomach? A bigger meal than she had planned but she could just have a diet coke with lunch.
She’d feel guilty about it though. There weren’t any rules about not eating the children but she wasn’t allowed to snack on duty. She might get fined if the school found out, or maybe forced to take a week off with or without pay. Ming didn’t want that but she was too hungry not to risk it. She came to her first stop of the day and pushed her raven colored hair out of her eyes. Her potential breakfast boarded the bus.
The blond haired boy was the only kid who lived near this particular bus stop. He was a nice enough kid, didn’t give her any problems. He had a little bit of a belly himself though not as impressive as hers. His hair was still a bit wet indicating he’d probably just gotten out of the shower. That was good, you never know where these kids have been. Ming licked her lips, a little saliva trailing down her chin.
“Uh…. Hey.” He reached out to give Ming his change.
