Mickey John puts his hand in the big bowl and drinks a sip of the water. Almost instantly he felt himself starting to grow. It was very slow and gradual growth.
He grew, inch by inch, little by little.
He grew an extra foot in height, and his clothes stretched.
He admired his reflection in the water in the fountain basin. His clothes looked rather tight on him.
“I certainly look bigger.” Mickey John mused. Immediately, a button popped off his white dress shirt.
He had another sip, and he grew another foot in height. his clothes became tighter on him.
[He had failed to take into account that the fountain's water had no effect on clothing.]
He could feel his socks feel like they were plastered on his feet.
"The fountain is working!" Mickey John said. "My clothes feel very strange on me now."
Indeed.
He seemed to look like some crammed into clothes that loooked too small for him. He could see his bellybutton that his white dress shirt was no longer covering.
