When were in the store, Suzy was well behaved and suggested things to buy, though she knew there was a budget. The cashier was… ok. It seemed almost as if she looked down on me for having Suzy around. Oh well, why should she care? The little girl offered to hold a bag, I gave her the lightest one but she struggled with it so I got her to give it back.
When we were heading home, Suzy fell asleep. When the car was on a high way, the little girl was sleeping and her older self was sitting next to her? I turned around nothing was there. I could only see Suzy's adult spirit in the rear view mirror.
"Suzy, how did this happen to you guys?" I asked.
"Mark, we have no control over our minds, even though we act like children, the adult side is still there." Suzy explained.
"I bet Ross knows what he's doing!" I joked and she laughed.
"We became like that overnight, aside from Arin that is. You should know, he texted you at 10 in the morning 3 days ago."
"Suzy, are you aware that Arin has a black eye, thanks to Ross? And that Barry and Danny are squabbling?" I informed her on everything I knew.
"Oh, my baby! Is he alright aside from that? Oh, yeah what about Kevin?" Suzy was in mild panic after hearing about Arin.
"You are aware that Kevin is a baby in human form right now? Aren't you?" I asked but she followed it up with, "Oh my god! Kevin is a baby, he will not be pleased by that! Wait so how old are the rest of us?"
I began listing ages. "So, you're 3, Arin and Ross are 4, Danny and Barry are 2 and like we've already discussed Kevin is 0."
"Ah, I remember, when I was actually 3. I wasn't in a predicament, like the one my being is in now." Suzy looked out of the window, by now we were near the house.
"Thank you Mark, for what you've done and are doing!" Suzy's spirit faded back in to the young girl's body who woke up not soon after.
