Adonis Sequence, Chapter 2, #5 (Patreon)

As I showered, I began to notice other changes. My hair seemed longer. I'd just had it cut and now it looked like I'd need to do it again. But, that was the least of it.  I thought I might be bigger. Not a lot, but you know…bigger. My shoulders seemed a little bit heavier, my chest was a little thicker, my back a little broader. Not enough that I thought anyone but me would notice. In fact, I wasn’t even sure it was real. I knew all about the power of suggestion. My mind was probably playing ticks on me. That was it, just mind games! I even thought I might be a little taller! Imagine that! Growing at my age, it was ridiculous. 

Or at least that’s what I thought until I started getting dressed. 

None of my shirts would fit me! I couldn’t even button up the front all the way! Never mind the tie! I couldn’t go to class like this! I’d have to buy all new clothes. Now, I understood why they gave me a clothing allowance. But who had the time to shop? I needed to get packed, drop my stuff off at the dorm and get to class. There wasn’t any time to spare. 

Maybe I could get through the day like this. I could tell people it shrunk in the wash. Then this evening I  could buy some new ones. That should work. I mean, it wouldn’t be that bad just for the day, right?
