Patrick sighed Ashe watched the children play on the playground, so innocent, so blissfully free and happy.
Patrick was a 30 year old Caucasian male. However, he missed his childhood. Sure adulthood and maturity had their perks, but Patrick remembered how he felt as a kid.
A young six year old boy who was playing on the playground saw Patrick sitting alone. He ran over to the young man.
"Hey mister, wanna play with me?" The young boy asked. Patrick decided what the hell and nodded.
The little boy smiled as he happily led Patrick onto the playground.
Patrick couldn't explain it, but as soon as he stepped into the playground, he began feeling giddy and somewhat nostalgic.
Patrick and the boy headed to the swings and started swinging.
As they swung back and forth, Patrick started having the urge to hoop and holler. Unbeknownst to him, Patrick started getting younger. The more he swung back and forth, the younger he got. His clothes also changed too, progressively, or rather regressively, getting smaller and more childish. This continued until Patrick was six.
"I'm Alex, what's yours?" The boy asked.
"My name is Patrick!" Patrick said. However, as soon as he spoke Patrick realize that he sounded different. He turned to a nearby slide and saw his reflexion.
"I'm a kid!?" He said in shock.
