109. Harry glimpsed his reflection once more, appalled.
110. “I don’t want to be a girl,” he mumbled.
111. “Her nails look so icky. She’s wearing makeup which is for girls.”
112. “My hair is so girly! Why do girls have to look like princesses?”

182. Slowly, Tom's dad fell asleep, leaving Harry in Cheryl's body.
183. The bed was comfortable, but Harry felt stranger by the minute.
184. He thought about every step of the day, trying to make sense of it.
185. How had he switched bodies with Cheryl?
186. What could have caused this?
187. He thought about the moment his vision went black.
188. It must have been something supernatural.
189. Harry decided he would talk to his mom first thing in the morning.
190. Surely, his mom would know what to do.
191. Time passed each second stretching into endless minutes.
192. Harry couldn’t sleep, fidgeting in discomfort.
193. Suddenly, he felt dizzy.
194. Once again, his vision went black.
195. When he blinked, he was back in the living room, in his own body.
196. Harry stumbled, reaching for the vanishing image of Cheryl.
197. Tom stood beside him, alarmed but quiet.
198. "Are you okay?" Tom asked.
199. “I think so,” Harry replied, still confused.
200. Tom’s dad called down from the staircase. "Everything alright down there?"
201. “Yeah, Dad,” Tom replied. “Just a little stumble.”
202. Harry looked at his hands, relieved to see they were his.
203. The purse, sandals, and make-up— all thoughts of horror faded.
204. He could see Tom’s dad from the corner, puzzled from the shadows.
205. “Why don’t we go play some video games?” Tom suggested.
206. “Yeah, I’d like that,” Harry said, forcing a smile.
207. They moved back to the living room.
208. Harry felt safer, more grounded.
209. He still wondered about what had transpired.
210. But right now, playing with Tom seemed like the best plan.

212. Harry held the controller, feeling it reassuringly solid.
213. He glaced to the side of the living room.
214. For a split second, he thought he saw Cheryl's reflection.
215. His heart stopped and stuttered, but he shook it off.
216. Tom and Harry laughed as they played, lost in the game.
217. Susan, unaware of Harry's odd experience, texted him to check in.
218. Harry read the message: "Call me if you need anything. Love you."
219. He texted back: "Doing great, Mom!"
220. Moments like these grounded him.
221. He looked at Tom, focusing solely on the game.
222. Knowing everything was okay made him exhale deeply.
223. The night progressed smoothly, devoid of any odd transformations.
224. Harry felt each laugh, each game changing the mood completely.
225. He was home safe, and everything was just fine.
226. They eventually tired out, crashing with controllers still in hand.
227. Harry felt secure, right where he belonged.
228. They didn't need words to emphasize the friendship.
229. The night ended with Harry knowing—some adventures need no explanation.
230. Whatever happened, he'd just move on, letting each moment flow organically.
231. Tom dreamt of cars and video games, Harry of simpler times and clear visions.
232. Both, completely unaware of any supernatural mishaps.
