You ran out of the kitchen and behind the bar, where you saw your friend, the bartender Mark.
“Mark! Mark! Down here!!!”
Mark looked down at you, and you were surprised he could hear you.
“Matt?”
“Yes Mark, it’s me, I’ve been shrunk!”
You watched as Mark knelt down and slowly reached his hand out towards you. You and Mark were total opposites appearance wise. You were tall and thin, with short hair and you were clean shaven. Mark was a big guy, kinda short, and had long hair which he kept in a pony tail and a thick beard, around three inches long.
Mark plucked you up easily with his thumb and for finger, and lifted you off the ground. He looked around to make sure no one was watching when he was interrupted by a voice. Without thinking he quickly put you in his mustache just above his lip and pretended to scratch his nose.
“Mark go grab a smoke and I’ll cover, then I’m gonna go smoke.”
It was the manager, Janine. She was nice but demanding, but always made sure the employees got their smoke and meal breaks before she did, which was greatly appreciated.
“You got it boss,” Mark said, his lips moving jostling you in the thick mustache hairs.
Mark made his way out the back door and leaned up against the brick wall near the dumpster.
“Dude, what happened? You’re crazy small!” Mark asked, placing a cigarette in his mouth. The cork colored filter alone was twice as tall as you.
“I don’t know! I was prepping produce and all of a sudden I was tiny!”
You watched as Mark lit his lighter and lifted the flame to the cigarette. Smoke poured out of his nose and covered you, making you cough.
“This is wild,” Mark said. “And you have no idea how it happened?”
“None,” you said, before getting covered in smoke again.
“We close in an hour, I’ll try to look around and see if I see anything fishy… but I ain’t trying to end up shrunk too.”
