It was a quiet Sunday at the Nelsons. Jeannie was in her bottle having a nap, while Tony was on the couch watching tv.
A visitor appeared. "Hello, darling," she said.
It was Jeannie's sister!
He sighed. "What are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to say hi to my lovely sister. Where is she?"
"She's having a nap."
"Well, wake her from her beauty sleep, for a bit."
He got up and went to the bottle. "Jeannie!"
She woke up. "Master, why did you wake me?"
"I'm sorry, Jeannie. Your sister has come by!"
"My sister?"
She got out with a puff of smoke and appeared. She was greeted by…two masters!
Both looked exactly alike and were even dressed alike. They looked at each other in shock!
"Hey, what's going on!" Said Tony #1.
"That's what I want to know!" said Tony #2.
"I do not understand!" said Jeannie.
"It's simple; I'm your master, and the other is your sister!"
"No, I'm your master!"
"No, I am!"
"STOP IT!" she screamed. "Oh, how do I tell you two apart?"
"I know; ask me where we first met."
"It was at that beach in Iraq."
"How did you know that?"
"Because I'm me, and you're the impostor."
"No, you're the impostor!"
"No, you are!"
"SHUT UP!" said Jeannie. "Let me think a bit…I have an idea!"
She blinked. Both Tonys became barefooted. She blinked again. Four feathers appeared. They sailed over to their feet, and began tickling them!
The Tonys giggled loudly. Suddenly, one of them turned back into Jeannie's sister! Jeannie blinked a third time, and the feathers vanished.
She rubbed her feet. "Very clever, darling!"
"Why have you come, sister?"
"I just wanted to see how you and Tony are getting along."
"We're fine," he said. "Until you came by, at least!"
"You still don't want to be my master?'
"No, thank you!"
"Pity! Well, I might as well go. Oh, can I have my slippers back?"
She blinked, and they returned to her feet.
"Thank you. Tata, darling!"
She vanished.
"I'm sorry I had to do that, Master."
"It's ok, Jeannie. You were wonderful!"
"Thank you, Master!"
They hugged and kissed.
"Master, how about spending some time in my bottle with me."
"That would be nice!"
She blinked. They turned into puffs of smoke and entered her bottle together.
