None of the others replied to Barbara's question and she quickly realized it was because they hadn't actually felt,sensed or experienced the
wave of energy she had.
However there no was a lot of broken crystal glass lying on the floor that someone could cut themselves on.
So as like in the past Barbara went to get a broom and dustpan to sweep the sharp crystal glass off the floor.
She went downstairs,as always,to the kitchen where she retrueved the items from the broom closet.
Then she head back upstairs where she found to her annoyance the two boys and the other three girls,including her sister Lindsey,
had departed the room and were now in the upstairs TV Lounge making out
and the splinters of sharp crystal glass still lay strewn on the floor
untended for the hazard the splinters presented.
So grumblong about a "lazy sister" Barbara got down on her knees and began sweeping the dangerous fragments off the floor and into
a sturdy paper bag for later disposal.
The ticked off 21 year old thought she had got all the shard slivers but it was as she moved about on her hands and knees that the sensitive palm of her left hand encountered the one sliver she had missed and slipped under her skin and wormed its way in deeper.
Grumbling,Barbara briefly stood at the doorway of the TV Lounge and told the others that she'd cut herself and was heading to the basements bathroom to disinfect the cut.
The others wished her well.
Even Lindsey,who knew her sisters appearance best and should have know better
seemed to have missed the appearance of Barbara's belly skin between her top of her skirt and the bottom of her
blouse.
A blouse that should have extended about a inch below the top of the ticked off Barbara's
skirt now sat a inch above it.
Barbara had put on a extra two inches of height in a matter of minutes since she's infected herself with that slive of transformative shard.
Barbara herself was slowly getting angrier and hence didn't notice that
she was growing.
She picked up the paper bag of the other shard splinters
and with a slowly growing throb of pain in her irritated left hand
headed for the basement bathroom where she knew
there was a few bottles of hydrogen peroxide,rubbing alcohol and formeldehyde in the medicine cabinet above the sink.
Slowly her body began to change and get bigger as she trotted down the basement steps towards the bathroom at the end of the gloomy hallway in the basement.
