In a flash, Josh was standing outside his own doorway. He could see right in front of him inside his own house the little 8 year old girl. She was dressed in the apparel that he had been wearing. Specifically, boys jeans and a t-shirt although they have been resized two little girls body.
Josh in his gloved hands held a parasol in one gloved hand and a Halloween basket and fan in the other. He could see the frame of the wide-brimmed hat out of the corner of his eye and could feel the choker around his neck. When he look down, he saw the frilly peach colored dress that extended from his neck to the floor. He had never seen the tights and the heel shoes he wore but he could feel them on his legs and feet.
His head both filled up and emptied such that he knew everything he needed to know to live the girl's life. He knew the facts of the girls life such as all her family, her friends, where she lived and where she went to school. But he forgot everything he had learned since the third grade. He remembered knowing these things but couldn't use what he learned in any practical matter.
Josh stared at the girl in stunned silence for several seconds.
" Josh say thank you to the nice man and come along. We have all the houses to get to," the girl's mother shouted to him.
Josh dutifully said, " Thank you," and then turn to leave. Josh felt obliged to do as the woman told him.
