"I will now go prepare the barbecue pit." Potter bow slightly before leaving the room.
"Barbecue? Why all of a sudden?" Sato asked.
"Celebration remember? Also it's a good time to fatten you up." Gray commented
"Hahaha. Am I a pig that is getting ready for slaughter?"
"You could put it that way." Gray joked with the young man as he turned back to look at Sato's wardrobe. "I want to make you presentable infront of everybody."
"Hmm? How come?"
"I do not want you to be teased by anyone when it comes to how you look. Its the most fundamental and easiest thing I can achieve."
"I look fine..." Sato sulked slightly.
"You do, in my eye. But when it comes down to others, you had a first hand experience of it in class today." Sato had talked about Motori's stunt today on the car. He realised what Gray said made some sense.
"Okay. Then what clothes should not be in my wardrobe?"
"Do you want my honest opinion?"
"Yes."
"Everything you brought over from your house is throwable." Gray said seriously.
"Everything?"
"Yes everything." Gray nodded. "It is best if you just wear what I prepare for you."
"But what you placed in my wardrobe are most definitely expensive clothing right?"
"Its alright."
"Alright my ass! A grey hoodie that I thought was the cheapest clothing here, turned out to be over a thousand dollars!" Sato retorted Gray. "I just need to have a few simple Uniqlo shirts that can keep me warm at school. Nothing more, nothing less. Is that fine?"
"No."
"Why??"
" I prepared all of this for you." Gray pointed at everything in the wardrobe. Inside, Gray had added another 8 sets of clothes when Sato was in the shower, while all of his old clothes were placed on his bed.
"You picked every one of the clothing here?" There were at least 10 sets available, meaning Gray must've spent a long time doing this?
"Yes. So you must wear it."
"But... The clothes are too expensive and it would be a waste for me to wear." Sato retorted.
"Fine. Who is the boss?" This was Gray's ultimatum.
"You are..."
"So, I request you to wear what I prepared and to throw away your old clothes to make way for new ones."
"Yes boss..." After Gray saw Sato resign to his fate, he finally smiled.
"I realised you like plain t-shirts, so I got you new ones from my family store." Gray gave him the stick just now and so he switches to the carrot now.
"Really? Thank you!" As Gray had promised, there were 4 plain black and white t-shirts neatly folded at the side. Touching the material, he realised it was as soft and comfortable as his hoodie from before.
"Alright, now you have to do your part. Let's take these old clothing and dispose of it."
"Okay." With a gloomy face, Sato took his older clothes and followed Gray to the backyard. There was a bin area where the two dropped off the old clothes.
"Goodbye. You have served your purpose for many years." Sato had been using the same clothes since he was in highschool. Even after growing out of it, he still wore it to school.
"Come. Let's head of the barbeque area. The place should be ready." Like Gray had said, there was an array of meat and vegetables spread across the picnic tables. The meat and vegetables were already sized and seasoned perfectly, making it easier for Sato and Gray to cook.
Sato's mouth waters as he watches Gray put a high grade sirloin steak on the grill. He wanted to cook, but Gray said it was a treat from him for going back to school. The 28 year old Gray stood by the grill as he made sure to not lose the juices in the meat. He cooked it to medium rare before placing it to the side of the grill, where it is warmed at a nice temperature.
"Help me make a few kebabs will you." Gray gave Sato something to kill his boredom, which got him excited. Alternating between meat and vegetables, Sato finished making 6 shish kebabs. He then placed the stick on the grill where he started cooking them beside Gray.
The smell of the caramelised onions and peppers wafted into Sato's nose, making him salivate uncontrollably.
"Here you go. Have a bite." Gray picked up one of the finished kebabs and fed Sato. The boy pulled off a meat cube with the vegetables with his mouth. As he chewed his food, light moans could be heard. It was too delicious.
"This is so good!" This time, Sato fed Gray the kebab. "Try it!"
Without standing on ceromony, Gray grabbed Sato's hand as he brought the kebab closer to his mouth. The warmth of Gray's hand flowed through Sato's. It reminded him of just now, when Gray was looking at his body. Gray slowly pulled the meat off the stick before chewing it up. The meat was really good.
After another 30 minutes of cooking, Gray and Sato made a large table of food.
"That is a lot of food." Sato said.
"You will finish everything here." Gray looked at Sato seriously.
"Pardon?"
"Everything here must be finished before you go to bed." Sato could tell that Gray wasn't joking. "Let's start eating."
Sato started engulf everything in his sight. He went from the chicken wings and chicken skewers as appetiser, to the steak as the main course, followed by the shish kebabs and Roasted potatos as a second main and lastly pork ribs for dessert. By the end of the hour, you could see Sato sprawled on the ground, unable to move. He was too full.
"I think I'm going to vomit..." Sato grimaced. Gray chuckled lightly by his side. Seeing his little boy fattening up made him happy.
"You will be eating like this everyday from now on until you visibly look like you gained weight." Gray said.
"What???"
