The four girls each went home with their weekly haul and planned to meet up at the park next afternoon to hang out. Bets noticed a peculiar bloated feeling in her middle when she went to bed that night. Probably from too much pretzels and soda from the food court. She was able to find sleep after an hour or two of tossing and turning, but little did she realize that her transformation would come into effect before she woke up the next morning.
Bets usually woke with the sunrise on weekend mornings. No particular reason for it, just a habit she’d picked up. When she did wake up, she realized that something about her felt completely wrong. She couldn’t feel her arms or legs, only her hands and feet. Her body felt severely bloated, like someone inflated her insides like a balloon. She was having trouble angling her head down to look at herself, so she rolled herself out of bed to look in her bedroom mirror.
She rolled over onto the floor with surprising ease, but her body made a hollow bouncing noise when she fell out of bed. Something was very wrong! She was having trouble getting herself upright the normal way. Her feet couldn’t reach the ground! In her struggle, her view started pitching forward and she rolled onto her head, now forced upside down. She shifted her weight and rolled back until she was right side up again, but even then her feet couldn’t touch the floor. She was balancing upright on her crotch!
“What’s happening to me?” Bets whimpered, “Am I… Am I…” She shifted her weight and spun to look in the mirror. Her heart fell into her stomach. Her entire body up to her hands and feet were transformed into a perfect sphere. She shrieked as loud as she could.
