David, the cop, couldn't stop thinking about the weird encounter he had earlier with a djinn who was walking around with a balloon-ified friend. He kept feeling the cigar in his pocket to make sure it was still there. He wasn't sure what to do. Go home? Visit a friend?
A friend. That sounds like a good idea. When the shift ended, David grinned as he drove over to a buddy's place. He got out of his truck and knocked on the door. In moments, a short heavyset man answered the door.
"Hey Bob!" David grinned as they clapped hands and gave each other a handshake, "I got something to show you." He said as he entered the house.
"Yeah, what's that?" Bob said with a snort as they entered the living room.
"This." David said as he brandished a cigar.
"A lit cigar? Big woop."
"Nah, nah, look...." David lit the cigar with a lighter, puffing gently before it was fully lit. To speed it up, he drew in a very long inhale and suddenly his belly started growing. The buttons on his shirt started to strain as the fabric was being pulled tighter by the expanding middle. It ceased as David exhaled.
He gave his belly a pat. "See? A cigar that inflates people."
Bob was mesmerized as he approached David and unbuttoned his shirt. It was real alright. He had a big round tight belly.
"Wanna try it, bud?" David asked as he offered the cigar.
Bob grinned as he took the cigar and puffed a few times before he made one long inhale. He could feel his shirt tighten around his middle before the seam on the right side of the shirt began to split. "Wow! Man!" He thumped his belly a few times. "I feel light too! This is air?"
