When "he" walked in to the house Mikey ran to meet "him" before anyone else. He would not let anyone spoil his joke not when he had put so much thought into it.
"Hi Megan do you want to play a game" Mikey asked his cousin. "Sure Mikey what do you want to play" Megan in her uncles' body replied. "Oh a little something called 'I wish you thought of your name as Alex', Megan," Mikey said using almost the same wish he had on his dad.
She stared at Mikey. What was he talking about? "What's your name, Megan ?" What a stupid question.
"My name is Alex , of course." Alex? Her name was... Alex. "What did you do to me, Mikey? She asked him looking confused. "Change me back, Mikey. I wanna be me again." Alex narrowed his eyes, stomping at the ground which looked ridiculous a grown man throwing a tantrum.
Mikey laughed, and whispered just low enough so that "Alex" could not hear him. "I wish that "Alex" thought that she was and always had been Mikey's dad Alex. "I didn't do anything, "Dad". And you are you." he said aloud.
"Of course I am who I am". Mikey's "Dad" said "What a stupid thing to say" "He said as "He" walked into the kitchen to talk to "His" wife.
Mikey sat in the empty sitting smiling to himself about the prank he had played on his cousin and his dad and wondering what he would do next.
