Looking down at his feet, he gaped, as he saw his toes pop out from the front of his boots, tearing through his socks, as his feet began to grow bigger than their usual size.
Jeremiah was beside himself.
"What the?!" he said. He could feel his jeans starting to split, as well as the sleeves of his dark green button-down shirt.
He wriggled his toes.
Jeremiah knew what his meant - the fountain of size had worked after all. He was growing.
But his clothes weren't!
[Of course, Jeremiah had failed to take into account that the fountain's water had no effect on clothing.]
"Well I'll be damned." he said. "My clothes are shrinkin' right off me!"
Jeremiah saw his jeans were now close to tearing point.
there was only one trhing to do - head home and get some new clothes to wear.
Jeremiah ran for his house as fast as his growing legs would let him.
