Looking down, Mary pats her pregnant-looking belly, hearing a 'dub-dub' sound. She giggles and rubs her paws over it again, making squeaks. Mary marvels at her inflated tiger body. Something about it was just so great!
Mary, oblivious to everything around her, didn't see the bicyclist turning the corner and heading to the air pump. The bicyclist, a young man, strode up to the air pump, walking a flat bicycle. At first, he thought the tiger was a promotional balloon, and not paying much attention, stood his flat bike against it.
"Hey!" Mary yelps, the sudden sharp pressure of the bike handles and pedals breaking her daydream. The bicyclist jumps straight out of his skin!
