But before you can think of a change, you get a phone call from one of your friends.
“Hey bro, you coming to the mall later? I think I found it this time.”
“Sure John, I’m in my way. Just don’t let it be like last time, ok?”
“No promises bro, but I’m confident this time.”
John has been your best friends since kindergarten, he’d be the cool one and you’d be his sidekick. You two got into all sorts of things and ended up taking all sorts of adventures, you might even say he’s closer to you than family. You think now would be a perfect time to show off your new and improved body. You put on a shirt that shows off your abs and some shorts that you struggle to put on because of your bigger ass. Taking one final look at yourself on the mirror, you leave for the mall to meet up with John.
You get all kinds of stares when you get there, most undressing you, some judging you (salty because they wish they had your body), but everyone in the immediate vicinity had their eyes on you. Confidently walking through the crowd, you head to the store you think John would be at and wait for him outside. You don’t see him immediately, so you check your phone. You think it wouldn’t be a bad idea to post a pic of your new self on your socials, so you get a good selfie and caption it “Feeling good today” as you look back at the store. After a few minutes, you finally see John. He’s a 6’2” (taller than you previously) long-haired brunette with a stud in his left ear. He’s wearing a loose tank top with destroyed jeans and skateboard shoes. By all standards a dude bro in look, but he’s not ready for your new look. You wave at him to get his attention.
“John, it’s good to see you bro, I finally made it.”
It takes him a minute to respond. “Thanks random tanned guy who sounds like my friend. Nice ass by the way.”
He doesn’t recognize you. Time to jog his memory.
“C’mon, you don’t recognize Wipeout Supreme?” You do a weird stance followed by a failed backflip, which you almost landed, you’ve never been that close before.
“Woah dude, just, WOAH! How’d you start looking like that? You’re taller than me man.”
You were about to tell him, but you wanna leave it as a surprise for later, “Maybe I’ll let you in on it, but for now, did you get it?”
He shows you the bag and inside are two collapsible bo staffs, one red, and one blue, just waiting to be used. You get excited as you can now do one of the stunts you saw a video of a few weeks ago. He breaks your concentration by interrupting you, “So, are ya gonna tell me how you got the surfer bod with the best cake or am I not worthy yet?”
