Rebecca's morning began much the same way as yesterday. Coffee, breakfast, shower, get dressed. This time however, her clothes outright refused to fit! Yesterday she could barely get them on, and today she couldn't zip or button. Rebecca looked herself over in the mirror, did she look any heavier? She weighed herself, the last time she did that, she was on the cusp between 199 and 200 pounds.
213.
Rebecca looked disappointed, she had gained weight, but then she looked back in the mirror. "I don't look any fatter, but why aren't my clothes fitting?" Rebecca looked down into the sink, when suddenly she noticed it looked farther away then usual. "No. I can't be taller, can I?" Was when Rebecca decided to measure herself.
She had been 5'10 for years, and as a woman of her age, it shouldn't be possible for her to have had a growth spurt. Rebecca lined her head up to the measuring wall she had made when the kids were still around. Six feet even.
Rebecca gasped. She had grown. A multitude of thoughts raged in Rebecca's mind. Could it be an illness, a legitimate growth spurt at her age, or something else, she hadn't the foggiest idea. As much as the added height scared her, deep inside her mind, it felt right. Her subconscious outlook made her reconsider that this was a good thing for her, like she deserves to be bigger.
In the meantime she still had work she needed to attend, not to mention she would need to stop for a quick new wardrobe on the way there. She would have to discuss the growth later with Mark in private. Thankfully she would get the opportunity to, as today was Friday and she had her date with Mark, plus, as much as she likes her new job, she wouldn't mind a weekend to rest.
After getting a new outfit at her lofty height of 6', this time a red blouse and grey skirt. Rebecca made her way to work, albeit a tad late. Walking to her cubicle, Rebecca's new height did not go unnoticed as many co-workers craned their necks just a little bit higher to meet Rebecca's face. Sandra was there to greet Rebecca at her post. "Normally we frown upon tardiness especially for new employees, but considering your recent performance, I think we can make an exception." Sandra winked at this last part, while Rebecca grinned at this exception just for her. Sandra continued, "Management was so impressed by your personal and business relationship skills, they wanted me to tell you you were being considered for the sales department."
Rebecca beamed at this opportunity.
"Of course it will mean more responsibility and important tasks, such as establishing new accounts and contacts, but it does come with its own proportional pay raise."
Rebecca's smile only widened. "Absolutely! I'll be happy to do sales! Tell them I can start at any time."
"Excellent, I'll go tell management you accepted, and we'll get the paperwork squared away for your new position."
Rebecca was immensely excited by this news. It was even better than an Employee of the Month award, she was moving up the corporate ladder and was getting rewarded for it. She'd love to tell Mark all about it over dinner tonight about her new promotion. Confidence was building within her, as Rebecca walked with Sandra to get the paper work filed. Curiously, she felt a tingle course throughout her body, a small one, but felt vaguely pleasurable, she didn't think much about it at the time. But what Rebecca didn't realize was she just shot up another inch in height.
Hours later, Rebecca sat at the table together, their date was dinner at Rebecca's house.
"...so I received Employee of the Month on Thursday, and then when I come in to work today, Sandra is at my desk when she tells me management wanted to me to sales. So I accepted!" Rebecca gushed to her boyfriend, still exuberant at the good news.
"That's great news Becca." Becca having since become Mark's pet name for Rebecca. Mark toasted to his girlfriend's newfound success. All she needed to get herself going was some self esteem and a new job. Mark thought to himself, pleased with his handiwork. All thanks to that hypnosis therapy file I installed on her player.
"Oh and Mark..." Rebecca paused for a moment. "Another thing, this one kind of weird." Mark's smile faded.
"What is it Becca?"
"I measured myself this morning, I actually grew two inches. Isn't that crazy? A 34 year old woman growing two inches?"
Mark grew deathly silent. He knew there were symptoms associated with that particular hypnotic therapy. He just never thought they would affect Rebecca, after all they only affected like 1 in 10 at the most according to the internal studies.
"Oh I'm sure what your body is going through is perfectly normal and healthy." He lied, rubbing the back of his head.
"We'll see. Now if only my body could save me the trouble of shrinking this gut." Rebecca placed both hands on her tummy pouch, her larger skirt covered the lower end of her belly while her red shirt blouse obscured the top half.
"That was a wonderful meal, and it's been great catching up with you Becca. But now I really should be going..." Mark started
