It was just another day in Kayden's life. Unable to continue her education due to rising costs and lack of scholarships, she had taken a semester off to go to work as a dental assistant. She didn't much care for the job, but she figured that since the pay was good and it would look good on a resume for when applying to medical school, she could stick it out. The only real problem was the dentist she worked for, Dr. Tagget. She had gone to him since she was a child and always hated the experience. She can remember him being the worst people person that there ever was. While having him for a dentist was bad enough, having him for a boss was like a living hell. The man treated every single employee like dirt, and refused to believe that anyone besides himself in the office was capable of making any decision, no matter how basic they may be. He was also an extreme sexist, and other than the receptionist, Kayden was the only female employee. Tagget would take every opportunity to berate her gender and point out that she was not very attractive. The word many would use to describe him was "pig."
Kayden was on her last strings with the man. She agreed with him that she was not very attractive. She looked more like a kid in middle school. She was only five feet tall, thin as a board, and pale. Her dark brown hair was usually in a mess, and what Tagget considered her worst trait, she only had A cup breasts. She had also been referred to as "homely" in the past. Kayden saw herself as the ugly duckling ever since she and all of her friends had gone through puberty. As a little girl, she had always dreamed of looking like a model, and having men drool all over her. This did not turn out to be the case. While she did not see herself as beautiful, she was tired of Dr. Tagget berating her. She would always be ready to quit first thing in the morning when walking through the front door of the office, but the thought of her finishing her undergraduate degree and getting into medical school would stop her. She knew that if she could just put up with him for one more month, then she would have enough money to finally quit and return to school. This proved to be her motivation, and kept her from going insane around him.
On what could have been any other normal day, Kayden walked through the front door thirty minutes before the office opened. She was dressed in a light blue blouse, khaki pants, and black high heels, all covered by her white lab coat. While she herself wasn't beautiful, she would always wear beautiful clothes to feel pretty. As usual, Tagget would make a stupid remark about her appearance and then the day would start. It was a normal day in the work nothing strange about the appointments. At the end of the day, everyone went home except for Kayden and Dr. Tagget. It was the last Wednesday of the month, which was the day when Tagget and one employee would stay late to do inventory. Kayden proved to be the month's victim of having to spend extra time with the pig. The task went along with no problems until it came to checking the tanks of nitrous oxide. Tagget became enraged, shouting that they were one tank short. He turned to Kayden and pointed his finger at her, accusing her of the theft. She stated that she had absolutely zero reason to steal the tank and that she would never do something as demeaning as theft. He refused to listen, stating that she had probably taken it to some frat party to get everyone high. Despite her pleas, he announced that it would cost her a whole months pay and that she was fired. He then walked down the hall to his office and shut the door.
Kayden was furious with the man. He had fired her just like that. She hadn't even taken the tank, and it cost her money and the job. Plus, if reported, she could kiss any hopes of medical school goodbye. Tears of fury were rolling down her face, and she was sweating with rage. She began screaming out, cursing Tagget and calling him just about any name that she could think of. In the middle of the outburst, began to clutch her stomach and fell to the ground in agony.
She immediately picked herself up off the ground, and managed to stand up. She still felt strange, but there was no more pain. That is when she noticed that her clothes began feeling tighter. She could not see how they were shrinking, it seemed impossible. Yet they were feeling tighter and tighter. She could see that the buttons on her blouse seemed to be under great pressure. Her feet were hurting as her shoes began to feel like they were meant for a little kid. Everything was tighter and she had no idea how her clothes could be shrinking. Suddenly, she exclaimed "My clothes aren't shrinking! I'M GROWING!"
At that same moment, the buttons on her blouse flew off and she heard them hitting the floor. Her feet burst through the straps on her heels, and she kicked them off of her growing feet. It did not stop there. Soon, the legs on her pants, which were so tight she felt like circulation to her legs was being cut off, began to rip straight up the middle and came up higher on her legs. Underneath her lab coat, she could feel her growing arms bursting through the sleeves of her blouse. Soon they were pressing themselves against the sleeves of the coat, and they began ripping the sleeves open. She could also swear that the sleeves were riding up her arm. She almost felt like she was getting taller.
