Chapter #5
In the Dollhouse
by: Unknown
Kim stumbled, but kept upright. I was glad she hadn't dropped me. However, I seemed to be getting larger. Kim didn't seem quite as big as before. But everything else was still huge...
"Blast it," said Kim. "I just shrunk myself."
Just then, Kim's sister came rushing past us as she came home from a friend's house. It felt like an earthquake. When it was over, both Kim and I decided to make for the dollhouse.
After a lot, and I mean a lot, of hard work and walking for what seemed like miles, we reached Kim's room. Luckily, Kim had a phone in her room, and we were able to climb the cord and get in the dollhouse. We were both sweating profusely.
After a quick break, Kim showed me around the house. Stan, the genius in our class, had helped her rig it with such things as running water and a miniature radio (he couldn't make a TV that small). Kim had even put doll clothes in the closet. After the tour was over, Kim grabbed a dress and disappeared into the shower to clean off all the sweat. After she was done, I grabbed some doll jeans and a T-shirt and followed suit. Surprisingly, the doll clothes fit.
Both of us were exhausted, and we realized that it was almost eleven at night. Deciding that we'd worry about our "small" problem later, we made for the bedroom.
And wouldn't you know it. This humongous dollhouse (well, it seemed fairly large from our viewpoint), and the only beds were a crib for a baby doll and a double bed for Kim's husband and wife dolls.
Kim cast me an awkward look. I cast one right back. Neither of us was too thrilled about sharing the bed. We may be good friends, but we weren't boyfriend/girlfriend. At this point, I was too exhausted to care, and apparently so was she. We flopped down and were asleep right away.
