As soon as you swallow the pill you feel a warm feeling in your belly. Its similar to the one you get whenever you eat too much spicy food but this time you know it will make you hot in a very different way...
"But sir..." Tanya seems concerned you ate the pill already. "We do recommend our clients only start up the nanobots once they are in a secure environment, like their house or our designated transformation spa. Would you like to move to our spa? It is highly recommended!"
You consider the offer briefly but refuse politely. You do want to get home as soon as possible and besides the prospect of transforming as you walk back is somewhat... thrilling. Scary, but thrilling in a weird way.
You thank Tanya and leave the clinic, picking up the T&A pill set sold by the payment desk. The product's box promises various kinds of bodily enhancements for women. If you gonna be one soon you might as well equip yourself for the future..
First thing you do stepping outside is tighten your shoelaces. What doesn't hit your awareness is that they did not become looser - your feet started becoming smaller. But it's fair enough you didn't think about that. As you head towards your house you've started doing some quick mental arithmetic.
You've been 6'0'' for your entire adult life. That's 72 inches.
Tanya said that half of average female height is 2'8''. That's... Hmmm... Two times twelve... Add eight... 32 inches.
The difference is 40 inches then. That's equal to loosing 1.3 inches every minute for 30 minutes. Holy shit!
You realize that it's been at least 5 minutes since you've popped the pill. That should make you like what? 4-5 inches shorter? You definitely don't feel that much shorter, if any.
You look down at yourself, at the sleeves of your jacket and realize that they do indeed seem slightly too long. So do the legs of your pants. But definitely not different enought to indicate loss of 4 inches.
Hmmm... you think. Maybe the change doesn't happen linearly... What if it starts off slow and then accelerates? What if it starts slow, ends slow and has a massive 'shrink spurt' in the middle.
You feel cold sinking feeling in your stomach. You realize you might not make it in time home before your changes become drastic.
And THEN you realize that this assumption was not really reasonable in the first place. 3 minutes in the clinic plus 15 min walk home, at 1.3 inches shrink per minute would put you at like 4'10'' by the time you reached home. Small enough for no clothes to fit.
"Holy shit" you realize. "what the fuck have I done..."
