Chapter #9

Your dad comes up to see what the fuss is

    by: Unknown
"Woah, woah, is everything okay?" You dad asked as he bumbled up the stairs after hearing a crash and screams. "Michael?" He asked upon seeing you wearing a floral dress. "Wait, is that a bra?" He asked, once he noticed the black fabric underneath your arm as revealed by the unzipped section.

"Michael, Helen. What's going on?" Asked your mother, noticeably weirded out by the situation developing in front of her.

"Okay, okay," You said, not entirely holding back your panic. "Just give Helen and I 5 minutes, and we'll meet you downstairs to explain what we know."

As they headed downstairs, undoubtedly traumatized, you said to Helen: "Hey, grab something of mine out of your dresser, and I'll do the same, so we can show that we can't touch our own stuff."

"Got it," She replied. "You also might want to change out of that dress into something a little less shocking, and maybe lose the bra."

As you both go to your rooms, you strip off your sister's dress and bra and put on the tank top and yoga pants from this morning.

Shortly thereafter, you joined your sister in the hallway and you both headed downstairs together to see your equally shocked looking parents trying to console each other.

"Ok, so. Any questions before we start?" Helen asked.

"A lot actually," Said your mom "but I think you should tell us what happened first."

"Okay, well, it all started yesterday when you guys were out with Helen." You began. "I got bored, and I put on one of Helen's bras."

"Ok, why did you do that?" Your dad piped up.

"Well, I'm not gonna lie, I like doing it sometimes. If you did, would you tell everyone about it?" You asked.

"I guess not." He replied.

"So, I try to take it off, because I got bored, realized I can't and start to panic, I whip my head around, and knock myself out on something."

"Then, when we got home, I was the first one upstairs. I saw him lying in the hallway, so I drag him into his bed before you guys saw him, because I wanted to take care of this problem myself." She began. "I didn't have time to take his... I mean my bra" She caught herself, "So I just left it on, covered him up, and started to get ready for bed myself. Then, I woke up this morning, my room looked different, I wasn't wearing what I was last night, and my dresser was full of clothes that weren't mine." She finished.

You began to recount your side. "Similarly, I woke up wearing the same bra from last night and a pair of panties. I got up, panicked, and realized I could take off the bra now, so I did. I also noticed that my dresser was stocked with girl's clothes, so I put on the least feminine stuff I could find, and then I went down to see you guys. Sorry I lied then, I didn't know how big of a deal this was yet. After that, Helen told me her side of the story, so we tested something. IT turns out that the clothes in our closet look like they were made for us, and that's why you found me wearing a dress."

"And a bra." Added your mom.

"Actually, both of those things were borrowed with my permission this time. I wanted to see if it was just luck that our stuff seemed to fit each other, I mean, we are about the same height, so it could have been chance." Helen replied. "Also though, there's a reason this isn't fixable by trading clothes back." She said as she tossed you a pair of your underwear, only to have it phase through your hands. "So, that's not so easy, and that's all we know. Sorry for the fright"

Surprisingly satisfied by your explanations, your mom said "I guess we have to go out to get you more clothes, and see if that works. But I do have an idea if you're up for it."

"Yeah?" You asked

"So, the swap happened when you both slept after you wore her clothes, right?"

"Yeah. I think so." You replied.

"Well, does it follow that if a third party was introduced, it might allow you to swap with them to introduce a buffer switch between people? So, if we go in a cycle, hang on..." She said as she cleared off the chore whiteboard. "Okay, Mike, you're 1; Helen, you're 2; and 3 will be our third person. So, in the left column, we have our people, in in the right column, their corresponding clothes..."

ITERATION 0 - TODAY
MIKE->HELEN
1 (Mike):2 (Helen's clothes)
2 (Helen):1 (Mike's clothes)
3 (TBD) :3 (TBD's clothes)

"So, if we just follow and iteration of 1:3,1:2,1:3, and 1:2 with Mike acting as the switcher, we'll have reversed the switch." Ever the scientist, she expanded her work and showed that it actually made sense if her assumption was true.

After a few minutes, the board read:

ITERATION 2 - TOMORROW T+1
MIKE->TBD
1 (Mike):2 (TBD's clothes)
2 (Helen):1 (Mike's clothes)
3 (TBD) :3 (Helen's clothes)

ITERATION 3 - T+2
MIKE->HELEN
1 (Mike):2 (Mike's clothes)
2 (Helen):1 (TBD's clothes)
3 (TBD) :3 (Helen's clothes)

ITERATION 4 - T+3
MIKE->TBD
1 (Mike):2 (Helen's clothes)
2 (Helen):1 (TBD's clothes)
3 (TBD) :3 (Mikes's clothes)

ITERATION 5 T+4
MIKE->HELEN
1 (Mike):2 (Mike's clothes)
2 (Helen):1 (Helen's clothes)
3 (TBD) :3 (TBD's clothes)

After seeing it explained, you saw that it was just a big circle, and that in less than a week, you could be back to normal if everything goes according to her plan.

"Now, as for TBD, it's going to have to be someone close to you, since you need them nearby for 4 more nights. Now, both your father and I can be that person if you'd like, since we want to help you two get back to normal"

Your dad grunted irritably.

"Right, honey?" She said, staring right at him.

"Yes, dear." He said.

"That said, I totally understand if you guys don't want to be wearing your parent's clothes to bed. It's pretty weird after all.

"You have any ideas?" You asked Helen
