Suddenly, it was then Dave's thoughts were rudely interrupted.
the fountain seemed to be getting bigger.
Within minutes the fountain had grown bigger, big enough for people to jump in, bathe in, or paddle in.
"I certainly didn't expect that!" Dave said in surprise. but he was more tempted than ever to try it out.
He decided to have a bath in the fountain.
After all, it was a hot day, and he felt sweaty.
He then took off his clothes, and got carefully into the fountain, and started scrubbing himself with a sponge he'd brought down from his bathroom.
after a hour or so, he got out of the fountain.
"Good thing I brought my towel with me." he said, wrapping himself in the towel.
Suddenly, the water took effect on him. He wriggled his toes in amusement and glee.
"I hope it works." he said.
he began to feel himself de-aging.
he thought of regressing to 20 years old, or to 18, to be a teenager, or to 8, to be a boy again, Then, he pictured himself continuing to shrink, possibly to babyhood.
"Wow!" Dave said, as he felt himself shrink a small bit. "I'm getting younger!"
and he was.
He saw that his stubble seemed to be fading.
he saw his belly deflate, he started breathing heavily, and he was shrinking down as well.
He lost 1 year of age, then another, and another, and another.
