Kipwil had found work in Real World as a kindergarten teacher. This suited her down to the ground as Kipwil was allergic to growing up and she could hide this allergy in her work.
At the end of the year though, Kinder teachers become the recipient of bountiful gifts of love and appreciation, and Kipwil was no different. Parcels of all shapes and sizes came through her front door at the end of every work day for a week Kipwil loved it.
But, one morning, a strange sound was coming from the kitchen. Kipwil could hear Nanny Nutrition shrieking with anger and the sound of pots and pans clanging. The recipes were all talking at once, it was bedlam. Kipwil hurried out to see what was the matter.
" NANNY!", Kipwil yelled, as she ran into the kitchen, ducking for cover as box flee overhead, " WHAT IS THE MATTER!!!"
" Oh Kipwil dear! Just LOOK!!!! Look at what was in all those parcels!!! They are full of Sugar Goblins!!!" Nanny cried out despairingly, swinging a frypan at a gibbering sugar goblin. The floor was covered in spilled ingredients, broken plates and cups and torn wrapping paper. There was flour dust on the ceiling and poor Nanny looked a fright.
Nanny was right. In almost all of the parcels Kipwil had brought in, there were boxes of chocolates. Chocolate is one of Kipwil's weaknesses and sitting right on top of the chaotic pile was Seduction herself, lounging back in a red cocktail dress and killer heels.
"Well, well, we meet again" Seduction said languidly, looking at Kipwil from under her lashes.
" Well you can get out for a start!" Kipwil said angrily.
" Hmmm....no, I don't think so Kippie dear. I think you'll be ASKING me to stay" smiled Seduction and she blew a warm chocolatey scented kiss at Kipwil.
Kipwil closed her eyes and tried not to smell it but it weasled its way in through her nose. Kipwil could feel herself salivating.
" You don't need it Kipwil!" Nanny shouted jumping over a trio of goblins barreling down at her, " Fight it! Fight it hard!!!"
Kipwil opened her eyes and reached out a hand to a box. She grasped it and inhaled deeply. Nanny groaned and roundhouse kicked a goblin sneaking up behind her. Kipwil lifted the lid and........
tipped that box into the bin.
" Your loss, Sugar", crooned Seduction in a slightly bored voice and vanished.
" Well my dear, you had me scared!" said Nanny Nutrition, " Now to get rid of these goblins."
Kipwil helped Nanny rid the kitchen of goblins by sharing the boxes of chocolates with her children's friends in a great big chocolatey picnic. But one box, she left behind in the cupboard.
" Nanny, I know you aren't happy with this but I need that box to be my Willpower Workout. Every time I say no to one more or even to just one, I am making big biceps on my Willpower. Unless I have the opportunity, I'll never be able to develop it! So that box will stay, and I will allow myself one chocolate with Hubba Hubba over coffee. Deal?" Kipwil explained to Nanny Nutrition.
" Well, I'm sure you know what you are doing, " said Nanny Nutrition dubiously, " but my dear, today is your weigh in day. You go find Cyril De Scales and I'll clean up this mess. Breakfast will be waiting for you when you are finished."
Kipwil hugged Nanny Nutrition and plopped a big kiss on her warm cheek, before going to the bathroom to find Cyril.
Cyril was humming impatiently when Kipwil arrived.
" It's about time! It is the height of bad manners to keep one waiting!" he complained in his very best English voice.
" I'm sorry Cyril, we had a problem in the kitchen" Kipwil said soothingly.
" The kitchen is none of my concern!" countered Cyril." Now if you please, I'd like you to weigh in. And i a tiemly fashion next week!"
Kipwil stood on Cyril as gently as she could and almost held her breath.
" Congratulations Kipwil your current weight is 48.2 kgs. You have maintained your weight since leaving 12WBT land. Well Done I say" said Cyril, sounding a little more cheerful.
" Thanks Cyril...you are a true gentleman, " said Kipwil happily. " I have to tell you though. I won't be weighing in next week becasue I am going away on a holiday with Hubba Hubba. I'll see you the week after?"
Cyril sighed. " Well I suppose I will see you then, ten times heavier no doubt!" he grumbled crankily and shut his eyes.
How will Kipwil go with her weigh in on holiday after Christmas? What other joys does she have in store? How will her Willpower muscle be ove rthe next few days? Find out soon......
