"We can't tell anyone. No one would believe us." Kari was able to speak with composure. "We'll just have to figure it out ourselves."
"Yeah, and soon. I don't want to be a girl for the rest of my life." TK was walking around, completely loathing the dress.
"What's wrong with being a girl?" Kari asked, a little insulted.
"I can never wear this. I'm also weak, look at this." TK tried picking up a TV on the table that he normally would have been able to lift, with effort, and it didn't budge. "I should be able to move that thing!"
"Are you calling me weak?" Now Kari was really insulted. "You think I want to be a boy? You guys never clean yourselves up like we do, and always smell worse than us." Kari and TK had succumb to petty gender rivalry. Each pointing out flaws with the other that they didn't want to live with.
"So what happens now? Do I go home with Tai or Matt?" TK hadn't ended the argument, just changed subjects abruptly.
"Well you have to go home with my brother, silly. You look like me, remember?" Kari had agreed with the change. "See if you can behave, and don't mess up my room."
"Well don't you mess up mine."
"OK, now listen carefully. I have an image to maintain. I have to tell you how to use my makeup."
"Not gonna happen!" TK was backing up slowly, a look of panic on his face, or should we say, Kari's face.
"Listen, it's easy. First you apply the foundation lightly patting on and smoothing out with your hand. I always use the light pink lipstick and the lipbalm over top." Kari instructed.
"Okay I think that I have got the foundation thing but the lipstick?"
"It's just like putting on lip balm, like when your lips are chapped."
"Alright." TK accepted all this, but with a very disappointed look. Kari was looking up at the ceiling, and counting off things on her fingers that she had to get ready for in the morning. She suddenly stopped, and went pale. TK saw the face that was supposed to be his go white. "What's wrong?" TK and Kari were fighting, and the situation was confusing him, but he still loved her, and was concerned for her.
"I was going to tell you to use the peach-smelling shampoo, and I thought of something."
"What? What is it?" TK was never good at guessing games. Getting hidden meanings, yes; but guessing, no.
"When we switched, TK; everything switched." Kari was blushing now, and looked at the floor.
"What are you talking about..." TK voice trailed off as it suddenly dawned on him. TK and Kari had spent all this time arguing about the subtle differences between the sexes. Now TK realized that the single biggest difference between him and Kari also switched. He went white now, and Kari blushed when she saw he understood.
"TK, do not look down in the shower." Kari was almost scared. TK had a similar look on him.
