You’re still contemplating what to do with your brother Luke when his cell phone dings as he’s playing his video game. He stops the game, and he answers the phone.
“Play basketball? Me? I hate basketball. Both you and Eric are taller than me and I suck at it! Oh, alright. I’ll be over in a minute, Joe. Bye!”
Luke gets up and puts on his tank top and high tops before he crosses the street to go to Joe’s house, where there’s a basketball hoop outside in the front yard. You walk to the front window and you spot Like, Eric and Joe shooting hoops. Both Joe and Eric are over 5-foot-9 while poor Luke is only 5-foot-4 inches tall, the shortest!
“Time to help out the little bro!” you smile quietly as you watch Luke stand around the basketball hoop outside. “I want Luke to grow a foot taller” you say, while holding the voodoo doll in your hands.
Very gradually, Luke’s legs begin to grow longer, as well as his arms. Luke doesn’t notice anything at first, but the other two boys begin to notice that Luke is catching up to them in height. They don’t say anything at first, until they see that Luke is suddenly standing as tall as they are! Then, Luke begins to pass them, growing taller!
“Hey, Luke! What’s going on?” Eric shouts as he finally gets hold of the ball after he made another basket.
“What do you mean?” Luke answers.
“Look at you! You’re freaking TALL!” Joe utters.
Luke walks up to the other two boys. Suddenly, he finds himself standing a few inches taller than either one of them!
“Oh, man! That’s so cool!” Luke grins.
“No way! Nobody grows that fast!” Eric shouts. “What’s going on here?”
You look on from the living room window and grin as your brother suddenly towers over the other two boys. Suddenly, he is loving basketball and he’s making all the shots!
