Daniel shook his head. "Wait what? I'm not giving you my car, were you just talking to me?"
Harper paused after starting the car. She picked up her brother in her fingers and held him by the back of his shirt.
"Listen, I don't know how you did it, and it seems like you regret it now, but my best guess as to what happened to you is that you shrunk yourself as a birthday gift to me, giving me not only your car, house and other belongings but your own life as well."
Daniel laughed nervously, but his sister's expression was very happily serious. "You can't believe that, right? Why would I not do it in front of you or in a safer place like my house?"
Harper smiled. "Three things; first, you wouldn't do it at home because someone else might take you, second, you obviously know I love surprises, so why would you do it in front of me? And third, I really do believe this, yes. Mainly because I want it, but also because... Well really that's it, I just want it to be true. So anything you say won't really change my mind on this dude." With that, She stuffed him into her jacket pocket and drove out of the parking lot.
Inside his sister's pocket, Daniel was tangled up in a mess of headphone wires. He tried to resist, but the more he fought, the more his small body became tangled in knots.

Because she was wearing socks, Daniel felt completely lost, especially when he felt his world spin (presumably Harper has just rotated like laying down). Her hand shot into her pocket and pulled out its contents; a receipt, a couple of quarters, a pair of ear buds, and Daniel tangled up within it all.
Harper's fingers delicately untangled the headphones and freed her brother, cupping him in her free hand while she stuffed everything else back into her pocket. Her hand slowly opened, letting Daniel get a good look at her big, hazel-green eyes.
"Now what to do with you..." She said, watching her brother intently as he looked around, and realizing that she was laying on his own bed.
"Harper, please! This is my house! My room! I have worked very hard to get here, please don't do this!" Daniel pleaded.
Harper giggled and then cleared her throat. "You need to understand Danny, this is MY house now, my room, my car, and my...
