Ms. Harris was not what you would consider a beautiful woman. She was pretty, though, or at least men on the faculty over the years had told her she was. She had never formed a close relationship with any man, since her father had left the family penniless when he just plain didn't come home one Friday.
Emily loved the job of teacher. It was not that she loved children, it was that she needed someone to control and control she did. She would pounce on any opportunity to disciline a child and it was always harsh discipline that she handed out.
In the following days after she'd felt that tingle run through her breasts, she had experienced some very strang things. Firstly, she could not eat meat anymore. She found it to be too disturbing to even look at meat being served or to smell meat cooking. She was surprized at this because she'd always loved a good rare steak. No more.
Secondly, she had gained 30 pounds in ten days. Emily had made an appointment with her doctor for the next Wednesday. As she approached the Doctor's office she was thinking how embarrased she was going to be when the Nurse weighed her and found that she'd gone from her nornally healthy 150 pounds to 180 pounds. Something had to be wrong.
As Emily had feared, the Nurse asked her to step on the scale but to the Nurse's surprize as well as Emily's, the dial on the scale stopped at 230 pounds. There had to be something wrong with the scales, thought Emily as the Nurse wrote information down on the chart. Emily could see the smirk on the face of the girl as she did. In fact, everyone in the waiting room was staring at her.
While she sat, waiting, she began to rub her crossed legs and dicovered that she'd neglected to shave them this morning. Wait, she had shaved this morning. Just then, her name was called and she started to get out of her chair to go into the exam room. She found it almost impossible to lift her bulk out of the chair. Two of the waiting husbands helped her out of the chair. When she tried to straighten up, she found it very painful in her back to do so. She went into the inner office bent over from the waist and waddling from side to side.
