you were a water bender, helping out Ming-Hua in her endeavours. But deep down you knew that your bond could come a long way. Eventually, you decided to invest more time with her, going on dates and such. She didn't mind it at first. Until one day, she noticed that her gut has become so big, that it couldn't be covered by any of her garment based clothes. You have once again entered her Adobe, noticing the recent change, before you could say anything, she asks.

Look, I know that you wanted to connect with me and treat me the best you could, but. Was it necessary to go out to dine with me this much?

Ming-Hua points to her belly and pokes it a little, making an audible sloshing sound.

How will you explain such a thing? Only your mind could tell.
