I reach into the jar marked truth and pull out a piece of paper. Unfolding it I read, "Have you ever stole anything." I pause for a minute, thinking about the shrink ray. I could tell the twins about it right now. Or I could recount the time I took a candy bar when I was five years old.
I decide to spill the beans about my secret. "I actually just stole something today." Both Maddie and Megan look shocked. I go over to my towel and grab the device, explaining how I found it.
"What is it?" asks Maddie.
"It is a shrink ray," I respond.
The girls let out a little giggle. "Oh come on," Megan says. "I should have known you were just pulling our leg. I did not think you would ever steal something. So what is that really. An old TV remote or just some toy?"
"No I am being totally serious. Here let me show you." I point the remote at one of the lawn chairs and fire. Maddie and Megan gasp as it shrinks before her eyes. I let them hold the tiny chair to prove that it is real. Then I return it to normal size.
"I can't believe that is real. It is like something out of a sci-fi movie," Maddie exclaims.
"I know. Ever since seeing Honey We Shrunk Ourselves I have thought a shrink ray would be cool," Megan states. "Both to be able to shrink yourself and to shrink people who annoy you."
"Oh, I have a truth for you if you want, since it is your turn," Maddie says with a grin.
"Okay," responds Megan.
"What would you do if you found your ex boyfriend at 1 inch tall," Maddie asks.
"Oooo...all the possibilities," Megan grins. "For starters I would scare him by almost stepping on him. Then I would show him just how small and insignificant he is compared to me. I would definitely sit on him, preferably after eating Mexican food. And if he really was annoying me, I would swallow him whole."
"Wow...that is savage," Maddie smirks. "Can you imagine a tiny John screaming and struggling down your throat? I bet he would taste gross."
"It would probably be like that time we swallowed those live goldfish," says Megan. "A slightly fishy taste and a weird squirming feeling."
"You are both sick," I tease, as we continue to play truth or dare.
