I'm Going To Die!

[Part 12/12 of today's Mass release! Here you go fellas! Big Shout-out to Dirtydew!]

Brrrrr! Brrrrr! Brrrrr! Brrrrr! Brrrrr! Brrrrr!

Hugo groggily dragged himself into the bathroom, his eyes half open, his brain still booting up like an old computer.

His mind was running on autopilot, just like every morning—pee, brush teeth, maybe check abs if feeling narcissistic enough—but the moment he stood next to the wall, something felt different.

He squinted at his reflection. Then at the stickers he had placed onto the wall weeks ago.

They seemed a little lower than before?

Wait… was he standing taller?

His sleepy brain took a second to catch up. Then, with the urgency of a detective solving a crime, he turned to his measuring marks on the wall.

He lined himself up. Calmed himself and measured as well as he could. Then checked again.

5'9.

"Wow! wasn't i just 5'8 the beginning of this week?!"
