"Isabelle!" You shouted. "Thank goodness you woke up! You gotta help me!".
Isabelle stared at you in disbelief and gently set you on the top of the table. "Mayor I.. I...How did this happen!" She manages to blurt out. "Why are you so...Small!".
"I don't know!" You shout. "I just decided to take a little nap in the office, and when I woke up, I was like this!".
"Ohhh...this is really, really bad! The village can't have someone who is two inch tall for a Mayor! What are we gon-!". But Isabelle stopped mid sentence for some reason. She started to stare out into space, which made you concerned.
"Uhhh...Isabelle." You say after a couple of seconds. "Are you okay? I don't mean to be rude but this isn't the time to be-"
"YOU FELL ASLEEP ON THE JOB!" Isabelle finally shouted. "AND AFTER ALL THE TIMES YOU GOT MAD AT ME FOR TAKING A NAP?!"
The force of her words were so wrong that you fell down on you back. "OW...Isabelle I never got mad at you for sleeping. You always get mad at yourself remember? I always thought you looked cute in your sleep." You got up and dusted yourself off. Isabelle looked like she wanted to say something again, but she stopped herself before she did.
"Uhhh Isabelle, your making that lost in space look again." You say after another period of silence occurred.
"Y-y-y-you think I'm c-c-c-cute when I sleep?" Isabelle breathed out quietly. Suddenly a massive blush forms on your cheeks and you realized your mistake. "NoNo Isabelle! What I meant to say was...uhhh...was that I think your MUTE when you sleep. Haha, yeah mute. Must of been a slip of the toungue." You rub your head nervously. You were never a good liar, most people saw through them straight away.
Isabelle looked at you for a moment before smiling slightly. "Heh, yeah. I probably just heard wrong." She said. But something told you that she knew what you said, and what you meant by it.
"Uhhhh Hey! Aren't we supposed to be figuring out why I'm an ant now." You tried to change the conversation away.
"Huh? Oh right!" Isabelle slapped herself. "Okay, lets retrace your steps. What did you do today before you shrunk?"
"Well," you think back to all the things you did this morning. "I woke up, ate some breakfast, checked the lost and found, ate an apple on the way to work-"
"An apple?" Isabelle interrupted. "That's weird. There aren't any apples in the village. We have a lot of Peaches though!" She smiled enthusiastically.
"...yeah... I found it in the lostand found box." You remembered that apples were found in the next town over. "Wait," Isabelle interjected "You just ate a random apple out of the towns lost and found box? That could have been someones!"
"Isabelle, have you ever seen anyone except me actually USE the box?"
"Umm...no?"
You give Isabelle a wise ass look. She just grinned nervously in response. "Hey...you don't think that Apple had anything to do with this...do you?" You say.
"Oh Mayor don't be so silly!" Isabelle dismissed jokingly. "Apples don't shrink people. It was probably something else."
"Like what?"
"Well...there's always magic!"
"Oh Isabelle..."
"Oh, Mayor! I just remembered something! Remember that fountain you funded? It's done now!"
"Isabelle that not what I'm concerned with right now."
"I think you'll really like how it turned out."
"Okay I'm happy about the fountain! But that's being superseded by the fact that I'm two inches right now."
"Maybe if you just see it, it might help you to feel...not so concerned about that?" Isabelle flashed her trademark nervous smile. You raise your eyebrow at that last remark. Not so concerned about being small? She's acting weird.
