All too soon, evening arrived. Angelo was busy closing the Dos Bros Tacos shop. He waved goodbye to Bobby, Paz, and Kim-Ly as they headed for their homes. Now, all he had to do was wait for Tito to finish, so they could go home.
Soon, Tito finished, and came out. He was a little smaller. He could see Angelo looking stunned. 'I guess the big bro just got bigger!' Angelo thought. He & Tito walked off to the truck.
Turbo saw everything. 'Something is wrong.' he thought, seeing them driving away.
Angelo drove as Tito sat in the seat of the truck, feeling concerned. He now seemed almost 2 thirds of his size. He almost pictured himself shrinking so small, he shrunk right out of existence in a cloud of smoke. He chuckled slightly at that, but then became worried.
back at the apartment...
Angelo and Tito returned. Tito was now approximately half his size.
"Tito, don't think I haven't noticed how short you are." he said sternly. "Angelo, i think maybe that I am... shrinking!" Tito sighed. Angelo facepalmed. "Look, Tito, I think you're working too hard. Tomorrow, we're quittin early at 3. so you can relax."
Tito looked quiet. he nodded. "I'm just gonna turn in." he said. he walked off to the bathroom, his clothing trailing. Angelo noticed, but didn't say anything.
After his shower, Tito sat down on his bed in dumb shock. He was now lower than before, almost a third of his size.
"That's odd." he said to himself suddenly, "I don't remember my bed being this big." He stared down at his sandals, that had now came off his feet, and wriggled his toes with a wince. his face tugged into a smile briefly before fading back into a worried frown. Well, I certainly look like I'm shrinking, so I might end up shrinking so small, i'll become a freak myself.
Tito quickly shrugged it off. "Maybe Angelo's right." he said. "I am working too hard. I just need to have a rest, and forget the whole thing."
So he started undressing out of his huge bathrobe, and then he stared at his hat, and put it on. Now clad in only his loose looking underwear, he struggled to get back onto his huge bed, which now, seemed bigger than before...
By this time, Angelo had just got out of the shower, and was now cleaning his teeth. It was then he suddenly felt a sharp tingle in his belly, just like Tito had before him. It spread from the top of his head to the tips of his fingers to the ends of his toes. He seemed normal. Or was he smaller? it was hard to say.
That very night, Tito, now lying on his huge bed, in his huge undies, and his huge hat, was asleep.
in the morning, he'd think the nightmare was over, but alas, the nightmare was just beginning...
