Probably cause it included the 'change' in the transaction. The money you sent will have been sent but the chnage from it wont.

What's the 'change?' Or what is change?

Just use your wallet and its balance. Blockchain explorer sites cannot understand all the transactions that happen in your wallet or all the addresses that belong to you. If you want to make use of them, you have to understand some bitcoin internals:

Read the above as it is something you should be aware sending payments. You dont lose the money but the change will have been sent to one address you control.

The transaction is https://blockchain.info/tx/24419ab074f7d385c2a111af16e6159f2e8ad7357874b99888e74774a44a96ff?show_adv=true

You sent 0.0027698 BTC to 16Xv614KdTcajAxk6sRXb4kF6h87jBBk5V and 0.05035032 BTC (the change) back to 15cpwWUQyy8frkiV3A9QLj8v9PW1CkGH3V (your address) with a 0.0001 btc tx fee.

So, don't worry, you didn't lose anything and the wallet did send just 0.0027698 BTC + 0.0001 fee out.
