Family story: My mom bought me a bra. 34B, my size. It sat in the kitchen where she put it down until she brought it up to my room to give it to me. when she finally did bring it up she asked me to try it on. "Dad says your boobs aren't that big."
"I hope he didn't actually use that phrasing."
"Actually. I think he did."
I tried it on, and it fit. I immediately dashed downstairs in the bra and only jeans besides.
"Dad! This does fit me! Suck it! You underestimated my boob size!"
He started laughing. "Now wait a minute, let me see."
I turned this way and that. Sort of reveling in the fact that I wasn't afraid to show off my stomach like I used to be.
He was ready to admit defeat. "Well, all right, I guess I was wrong."
I laughed triumphantly and started to go back upstairs.
"Plus you're usually wearing baggy clothes."
I stopped at the landing and turned around, my hand on the banister. "Be lucky you're daughter isn't a slut."
I heard him chuckling as I went back to my room to discuss the fit of the bra in depth with my mother.
