BVL9G5

My bros and I are looksmaxers. Or we were. Now we are something far more. It started with BVL9G5, a Chinese peptide that reopens growth plates, transforming the "height-pill" from black to white.

I was 5'6 when I first injected it.

In three months I was 6'2. I became a chad, for being short was my only fault.

And yet, there were others out there taller than me. I doubled my dose. By the end of the year I was 7'4. Freakishly tall. Women no longer flirted with me like they did when I was 6'2. But it wasn't about the women anymore. I was doing it for me. I tripled my dose.

I was 8'11 when my mother begged me to stop.

“You don’t understand,” I said, “I know the risks. I am doing this for me! I could be a contender!"

"In basketball?" she asked.

I laughed at her idiocy. "I am far too tall for basketball. No. I could win the competitive reaching championships."

"Competitive reaching?"

"It's a new sport we made. We grab things from tall shelves."

"But didn't you start this because you wanted a girlfriend? Don't you still want one?" she said.

My old dreams flashed before my eyes. They were the dreams of another man, a shorter man. They seemed to me foreign and absurd.

"That depends," I said. "How tall would she be?"
