The Big Switcheroo

Tomorrow

A young fifteen year old girl was sitting on the porch of her grandmother's house. She was thinking about tomorrow.

What would it be like tomorrow? Who knows, it might as well be boring. Besides, no one really cares! My relatives for one. But that's it!

She has no friends. No friends to say, "Happy Birthday, Kagome!" This girl named Kagome was a poor, lonely girl. She looked like she was wearing the same clothes over and over again. But one of her relative was wealthy and they felt very bad for her, so they bought her clothes.

Kagome went inside and went to her room (for the meantime).

"Kagome, honey, do you want to eat lunch? Are you hungry?" her mother knocked.

"No mom!" Kagome said and went to the terrace. Someday, I will have a friend. Someone…I don't know…really smart, I guess, but not too smart, and really nice and cute or pretty. Heck, it'll never happen. Nothing ever will happen to me!


On the other side of town, a very wealthy singer was preparing for her birthday tomorrow…

"MOM!" cried a very busy fifteen year old girl.

"What is it, Kikyo?" asked her mom.

"Tell me what dress looks good on me." she held three dresses, one tight, pink, shoulder-less with feathers on the top; one blue gown with a blue tiara; and the other one was a silver silky lace dress that went up to her knees.

"Honey, I don't know. It's your birthday tomorrow. Make your choice. But I prefer the silver one." Her mother said.

"Fine!" Kikyo put the silver dress and hanged it on her closet door. "Ellie!" a puppy came from the door jumped to Kikyo's lap. "Hey Ellie!" she took the pup in front of the mirror and messed with her hair. "Tomorrow, you are going to look gorgeous. And so will I. Are you hungry, Ellie?" the dog barked. "But then again…" She remembered she had tons to do tomorrow. "I have to go to shooting, oh and rehearsing!" Kikyo yelled. Ellie went into hiding. "I HATE MY LIFE!!! Why can't I be un-busy? Wait, is that even a word? I don't know anymore! I never went to school, duh!" Ellie ran to the door. Obviously, she was scared.

Kikyo went downstairs.


"Kagome! Come down here Aunt Suri is here!" Aunt Suri? Kagome rushed down and found that her cousin Sango was coming towards her and hugging her before she could. After that, Kagome hugged her aunt then Sango and Kagome both rushed upstairs to talk.

"So…I hear your birthday's tomorrow! Isn't that great?"

"Sango…you're older than me…"

"Ahem, by only a year!"

"…but, how come you act like a child, but not me?"

"…because…I don't know, I'm just too excited. You're turning seventeen. Are you having a party?"

"My mom said I could…"

"Great!"

"But I didn't want to."

"Why! You have to…I mean seventeen is very important."

"If I do have the party, who'll be there?"

"Me, your aunt, your other cousins, my boyfriend, Miroku. Cheer up!"

"How can I?"

"Like this." Sango turned Kagome's frown upside down, literally. Then, Kagome laughed. "See…okay, so what are you going to wear tomorrow?"

"I have no idea."

"Well, let's start pickin'. How 'bout this?" She handed Kagome a beautiful silver silky lace dress that goes up to her knee.

"I guess I could wear it, but if you're going to put make up, then forget it!"

"Okay! Now your hair…"


"Kikyo! Dinner, honey!" Kikyo's mother shouted.

Kikyo entered the dining room with a frown.

"What's wrong?" her mother asked her.

Ellie barked and Kikyo's mother gave her bowl.

"Why do I have to do so much stuff on my birthday? I mean, all day, 24/7, singing, dancing!" Kikyo said. "I hate my life." She whispered.

After supper, Kikyo went to her room and checked her guest list. Only her guest list. It contained thirty-four people. Only her closest friends (including her boyfriend) she promised to invite. Plus her mother's guest list which included her relatives. Even more people. Bad thing is that she has a big family. Good thing is that she lives in a big house.

Kikyo laid out her dress and she fell asleep. It was late at night, about one o'clock in the morning when she slept.


OK, I know, this is a weird story and probably a short one. I mean, I kept seeing movies with switching lives involved. I couldn't take it, so I made a story about it. I think it'll work out.

Read and Review.
