It was a the front door of the store opening, an easy to recognize sound after all the time I had spent working here, and as to confirm my suspicions, the sound was followed by the sound of keys jingling. Somebody was here!


I stopped trying to fight with my giant pants and stood next to my clothes for a second feeling that was the best idea, waiting for whoever arrived to open the door to the kitchen and spot me laying next to the pile of clothes on the floor. I thought for a second I could be more proactive about it but what hope did I have? I wasn't climbing those counters or opening the door at this size. I thought about trying to make some noise but since not everyone had the keys to the bakery I just hoped the person could open the kitchen door by themselves.


In the meantime I just tried to pay attention to any sounds that could tell me who was this person, and it didn't take me long to recognize who this was.


"Hellooo~ Is anyone here?" It was Blue, my boss. I was relieved it was her, surely she would explain what happened here, how did a cookie of hers ended up shrinking me, because I don't know what else could have done this to me. In any case I was sure she would check up here on the kitchen, so I just prepared myself to jump a bit when she crossed that door.


"Hellooo?" She tried again and I noticed her voice sounded a bit weird, and not only because I was now the size of a bug. It sounded deeper yes, but also playful? it was a teasing voice she didn't use much with me, only when she was in a very good mood and I managed to not stare at her body a bit too much. However the next thing I heard made me reconsider?


"Where did he go? If he ate the cookie on his way home I will have to hire someone else, hah" I heard her snicker after that casual comment my boss made thinking she was alone and shivered.


She did this to me! She knew the cookie was going to shrink me! That changed everything and now instead of hoping she opened the door I hoped something distracted her while I thought about what to do. Should I hide? Even if I decided to, my clothes would be a dead giveaway that I was here anyway. Should I still ask for her help? I didn't know why Blue did this to me and didn't want to find out, but if I wanted to grow back what other choice did I have? Taking a look at the discarded cookie crumbs a crazy idea came to my mind.. but that would only bring me more trouble if it worked. I needed to do something, there wasn't much time


What happens next?
