When Caleb came home he saw Xan and a bigger kid in the kitchen, making sandwiches. Then it dawned on him that the bigger, taller boy was Mikey! What the heck? How did Mikey get so big? He looked like he was at least 5 foot 5, or 4 inches taller than Xan for sure! Pretty big for a ten-year-old kid! Of course, being 6 foot 8 meant that Mikey still had a lot of catching up to do, but Caleb did get a little concerned. Wasn't 4 inches a lot for a boy to grow in just one day?
So Caleb just walked up to the kitchen counter where Xan was making his sandwich and Mikey was making the other.
"So... What are you two doing?" Caleb asked, trying to be friendly.
"Making sandwiches!" Mikey replied.
"So... I see you had a growth spurt!" Caleb said to Mikey.
"Yeah! It feels great!" Mikey replied.
Then Caleb walked behind Xan.
"Just what the hell are you doing to my little brother? Nobody grows that fast!"
Xan just remained silent as he continued to put sliced turkey and cheese on his sandwich.
"Well, in another three days you'll be gone and this game of yours will be over!" Caleb smiled.
Xan turned and smiled as Caleb walked away.
"Oh man... I forgot about that!" Mikey sighed as he became sad. "I hate it that you have to leave!"
"Who says I have to leave?" Xan grinned.
"Man... I wish mom could just adopt you as my brother or something..." Mikey said in a sad tone of voice.
