chapter 2-wardrobe malfunction

Janet got back to her humble apartment with the remnants from her cold she overcame just last week. She took a deep breath as she examined the living room and made her way to the kitchen. She waltzed over to the fridge as her stomach growled in protest for her skimpy salad she crudely assembled for lunch. She thought to herself, "Damn I need a snack." She popped open the fridge and reached in and grabbed a few pieces of assorted fruit but inhaled them almost as fast as she got them out of the fridge, but it was enough to subdue her hunger for now. She went to her small delightful bedroom and pealed off her top and forced her pants off, which were as hard to get off as they were to get on in the first place. She inspected herself in slightly dirty full length mirror as both her hands gravitated to the latest addition to her figure. She could still feel her once immaculate abs just with a minor layer of lard that prevented them from being visible and looked at the angry red imprints from her extremely tight work pants.

Janet said aloud, "HA I am over reacting this little pouch will be gone in no time." She reached into her tiny wardrobe and retrieved a small pale grey top and dark grey skirt with ease; it was her favorite outfit by far. But before should would put on her outfit for flirtinies with her friends she had a nagging urge to check her weight, she could resist it and found herself staring down past her little pouch which encroached on her view of her feet she almost yelped when the scale settled on 126lbs. Janet was on the verge of hyperventilating because that would mean she had gained 6lbs in a matter of 6 days. Petrified by this latest development since she new she had put on weight but not that much tried on her favorite outfit. The way the top fit didn't change at all, but her skirt feel had changed drastically. It felt tighter in the butt and belly which was different from the work pants, but Janet wrote it off because the pants cut into her waist so badly it covered up how much she crammed her ass into the pants. She turned to look at picture resting on her desk of her in that very same outfit from last summer with her posing with Alex with his lanky arm warped around her thin toned figure, and then she returned to inspecting the differences from then to now.

Then her cell phone started to buzz franticly and she soon when from inspecting the damage done to her figure and answering the phone. It was her friend Carol said oblivious to the current situation, "We are outside of your apartment come on hurry up fat ass." Janet's face soured and replied with fake enthusiasm, "I will be out in 5 minutes." She quickly applied some last minute make up and slid on a somewhat comfortable pair of red heels and jetted out of her apartment. Just then a red head with long flowing hair in a flattering formfitting grey and orange dress perched up on roll cage of soft top red jeep yelled, "come on fat ass hurry up as she made eye contact with Janet." Janet replied to the women, "I am on my way Carol shut up." Janet proceeded to descend the open aired flight of stairs as another one of her friends elbowed Carol in the ribs and said, "Hey I don't think calling her fat ass is a good idea." Carol replied to her friend Mandy, "Oh please she knows I am joking." Mandy retorted, "Not when she is conscious of the fact that she has put on a few unintended pounds lately." Carol's face went from playful to petrified with this little development. Janet got in shot gun and forcefully closes the door and said angrily, "I am here let's go."

Carol replied after putting jeep into drive, "Janet I am sorry I didn't know you put on a few pounds lately I didn't mean to call you a fat ass." Janet buried her face into her hands and released a deep sigh and replied, "Its not your fault lets just go get some dinner and drinks, and everything will be fine." Mandy popped her head in from the back seat with her silky brown hair twisted in a fashionable bun and said extending her left hand into the front of the car in a high five motion with a giant smile plastered over her face, "Hey I heard you killed during the presentation today good job. You ready to get promoted because I heard they want to promote you after that presentation?" Janet lifted her head up and cracked a smile and high fived her overly enthusiastic friend and replied, "Well as much as I want to take credit for it I have to give some... uh more like a lot of credit to Alex for helping me a lot while I was sick last week." Mandy replied with a puzzled look, "Didn't you say that he was given a massive project at his firm that he needed top present last week?" Janet replied, "Yes, but he was to kind by helping me out while I was sick. Just now I am repaying the favor because now I am help implement his plan while he is sick with the flu."

The three women all laughed after that remark and Carol said, "Now where can I find a guy like that." Followed by another few seconds of laughter Mandy replied jokingly, "Well first off you have to stop acting like a crazy redhead and then you find a guy like that." Mandy and Janet both chuckled as Carol shot a glance at Mandy. Just then the trio pulled into the bar's parking lot.
