Chapter #4Ripples (part 1) by: wubwub   Oh fuck! Shit fuckity fuck!!!
I was wrong; I was very wrong.
I thought there wasn't that much different in this new timeline (world? reality? whatever), but that was because my "new" memories seemed so much natural to me I didn't realize they were "new". Now, it wasn't just that there was a difference, but also that it took me a, frankly, ludicrous amount of time to notice them.
I didn't notice them during the drive in the taxi (it was Friday so Salim was on his day of rest, but I managed to convince the cabbie to pick up Amira who wasn't as religious as her dad). I didn't notice in the locker-room or even the break room, and I shockingly didn't pay much attention to Cassie mentioning yesterday's "workout night". I only realized something was very off while I stood in the shop's atrium, wearing clothes that were a little too revealing, welcoming customers in.
Usually Fanny, the self-proclaimed trophy wife of the VP of the shop's HR, did this duty alongside Cassie (though at some point the store stopped giving her the shifts when a suspicious amount of times she was found giving her number to the customers, and it became obvious they didn't come to see the new Bolmen or Hemnes). Fanny herself used to be a local beauty queen before finding the richest man who wanted her and married him. She was still fairly hot and the store-issued tank top showed off her firm G cups just as it was designed to do.
All that being said, it took me being there, wearing the same tight tank top, handing out maps and directions, to come to the conclusion that it was actually weird that Cassie was as powerfully built as she was now. I somehow saw her ripped form in the locker-room and no red lights were turned on in my brain.
As I stood there I started retracing my steps and actively comparing my current life to my yesterday life. The main difference seemed to be that Lili managed to convince me to start going to the gym seriously, and something in this version of my life persuaded me to stay and in the end actually enjoy it.
The effects this had were numerous. Me working out led to my mom to want to join in and nowadays she had not only kept her statuesque trim, she was quite fit and loved to do her weather reports in revealing clothing. It also led to the other girls in the store to join us and each of us pushed the other to get better and stronger.
Compared to yesterday, Rosalyn had half of her excessive fat and was actually quite curvy now. Finn had joined us from time to time and put on more muscle, though he was still as shy as ever. Ethel had gone from powerhouse to a muscle factory, I am pretty sure that if she had cared about it she could have submitted her biceps to Guinness World Records - they were truly titanic at 79cm (31'') around and her legs were so thick with muscle you could hear her walking around the warehouse. The store no longer had a uniform that fit her, so she walked around with her own clothes now, which meant a lot of shirts of niche punk bands and tank tops with more profanity than an average South Park episode.
Cassie seemed to have discovered a passion for the gym and gained the figure of an Olympic athlete while still remaining as curvy. She actually opened up an OnlyFans account and was shocked by the amount of revenue she was making now. Her only reason for staying here was the same as all of us, we wanted to stay close friends and recently we started talking about options. The group's new size had meant that Calloway tried to avoid us rather than abuse us now.
Lili was also affected by the change, working out with me and the others bolstered her resolve to push herself to the absolute limit and now she was truly massive. She looked like a slightly less muscular version of yesterday's Ethel. Her muscles were so dense I am pretty sure she could stop a bullet. Ok, that was an exaggeration, but her becoming a bodybuilder meant that the accident was now less serious and I had only needed to pay for a minor $10K operation instead of the major one. Leaving us a few dozen thousand dollars richer... I will wait for her to leave the hospital in a few days to talk about our options.
Yes, through the same sort of magic that was giving me the figure of a gravure idol I had somehow not noticed ANY of that.
Which, now that I think about it, this was not going to slow down anytime soon and I had no idea what the next few days will do to my friends. At this rate, by next Friday the Morning Shift Blues will be Amazon Central in the Morning. I could already see us bench pressing the forgotten vehicles in the parking lot; I could see myself laying on the roof naked, a version of Lili more muscular than the hulk resting on my gargantuan breasts.
"Excuse me?" a soft, sensual British accent woke me from my stupor and I looked up.
I had to force myself to not show my excitement as I stared up at two massive breasts, barely being hidden by a long floral dress that that did nothing to also hide her ridiculously muscular form. She was about 2.12 meters (6'11'') with large 74cm (29'') biceps, extremely thick legs and a pronounced 12-pack I could see through her tight dress. Her face was beyond perfect and I just noticed I was failing to hide my excitement.
"Fan?" Maddy Wool asked with her lovely voice and a smile.
"W-Well, yeah! I mean my wife is a big fan of yours. Huge even!" I was so giddy I was getting some stares. "Wha-what are you doing here?"
"Oh, I heard there was a growing female bodybuilding scene here from a trainer I know, and I wanted to meet the ladies behind it." A part in my brain completely broke. "Also, the hotel I am staying at does not have furniture my size."
"Well, I don't know how to say it, but I and a few of the other girls here are the group you are searching for." I knew I sounded very awkward, but this was beyond stupendous. "Also, if you want some real sturdy stuff, head to the warehouse here, we don't sell the really big stuff in the store."
"My, what a coincidence, say, can I set up a meeting with your group this Sunday?" I was visibly shaking from happiness.
"Su-Sure! It won't be difficult for you to find the other girls in the warehouse, they are bigger than me." I flexed my small, yet noticeable bicep.
"I look forward to meeting all of you properly." I don't know if her casual manner of speech was genuine, and honestly I didn't care. Maddy left and I heard her heavy steps behind me going up the stairs.
Lili had to leave the hospital tomorrow, I didn't care how or why, there was no way she was missing this meeting. I couldn't wait for the break so I could ask the others about what Maddy told them. I looked at Fanny who was a bit angry I was not doing my job properly, but then again most people either ignored us or stared at our cleavages.
"Are you happy?" A strange, eerie voice appeared behind me.
