Joey didn't need to be told twice. he put his bare feet into the fountain basin, making sure to roll up his pant legs, like they were paddling at the seaside.
then, he took his feet outta the basin, and let them drip for a while, then put them onto the grass.
suddenly, to his surprise, his feet began to shrink!
Joey and Billy watched as Joey's feet became smaller and smaller and smaller, becoming the size of a barbie doll's feet.
yet, when Joey stood, the tiny feet seemed to support his upper body weight.
"Amazing." Joey said, awestruck.
HE USED HIS towel to dry his feet on. Once completely dry, the water's effects wore off, taking HIs feet back to normal size.

bILLY AND jOEY got their shoes and socks back on, and headed to their respective homes.
they never told their parents or anyone else about the fountain, in case everyone wanted to have a go with it.
one thing was for sure, the test was a success, and they could hardly wait to try it the next day.
