Alex walks into his girlfriend's room practically in a daze. Right when she sees him, she notices something is out of place. Katie gets up off the bed and walks over to Alex. She is very confused by why he seems so much shorter. "Alex, what is going on? Your not shrinking on me, are you?" Katie teases him but Alex does not laugh. "Katie, something is wrong with me.

"I am sorry Alex, you should have told me at school when the incident happened. I did not know that was a side effect from that mixture.
