Half a size

There I stood all dressed up, proudly smiling to my image in the mirror.

She frowned and pulled the tissue under my arms
"You lost weight, right?"
"Euh, yes I did, I'm recovering from recent surgery"
"I'll have to call the seamster again"


A bit later there's 1 cm tissue pinned in under my arms at each side. It does look better and so the dress stays in the store for one more week.
Bye bye see you next week!
