Jeff ran upstairs, muttering, "It's not fair!"
He is startled when he walks into his room. His posters of the Shania Twain and Taylor Swift are gone. He's got posters of the solar system, and maps on his wall. His room has turned into a kid's room. He climbs under the covers of his Superman bedding and goes to sleep. He sleeps soundly like most growing boys.
As each hour passes while he sleeps, Jeff loses a year of his life. He dreams of being bigger.
When he yawns and wakes up, Jeff finds his room had changed again. The posters are all now of Legos, His bedding is now Thomas the Train. He stares at his tiny hands. He pulls back the covers and climbs out of bed. He's now wearing footie pajamas.
Jeff shrieks, "Mom! You pwomised not to make me younga!" He starts to cry.
Jeff's mother enters and hugs him, "Who's my little man?" she asks.
Jeff stops crying and stares at her, then he bursts into tears again.
"Freeze, Christine!" orders Megan.
Christina freezes like a machine that was turned off.
"M-m-m-egan?" Jeff asked.
"Sorry, toddler boy, Mom did intend to make you younger. I just got a hold of the Chronivac and changed her. Now she doesn't know that you were any age other than 3 years old. She made me older, and if she remembers that she may want to change us back to our original ages, and I like being 16."
"We could be twins?" sniffled Jeff.
"Yeah, but I like having a baby brother, Jeff, and since I control the Chronivac now and mom too, you better get used to being a toddler."
Jeff is struggling to find the words as he realizes his vocabulary is adjusting to that of a three year old child's.
"Uh, um, if me was 16, too mom would let us double date?" Jeff said uncertainly as his thought process degraded, and he wasn't quite sure what he had said - at least what it meant.
"Hm, you make a good point. I'll think about it, Jeffy," Meagan said, and then she added, "Christina, Unfreeze!"
"Oh, Jeffy, did you have a bad dream?" Christina asked hugging her little boy.
Jeff wanted to say, "You have no idea!", but what came out was, "I dunno."
"Did he wet the bed again?" Meagan asked.
Jeff looked horrified, as he realized either his mother or sister had removed all his knowledge of potty training.
