"Jessica, time for your Medicine," I call out. Jessica runs in and jumps into my lap for her daily dose. It's hard to believe that it's this easy now. Not like the first time.
The first time was the day after I caught her in bed with my husband. Of course they didn't know that I had caught them. I came in the house quietly, and after my find I left just as quietly. I was so upset I went to the mall and walked fast, trying to let off steam. Fortunately I happened on to a strange little shop that I had never seen before. That's where the wizard offered me that bottle of medicine that was guaranteed to solve my problem.
That next day, I checked out the computer, and found out that's how my husband was communicating with Jessica. I sent her an e-mail pretending to be him and luring her into my trap.
I had to move fast. I hid behind the bedroom door, and when she entered I grabbed her from behind and shoved the dropper in her mouth. She struggled valiantly, but I still managed to squeeze a dropper full down her throat. She broke free, but before she could make it to the front door, she had been reduced from a voluptuous 20 year-old woman to a sexless 10 year-old girl.
I locked her in the basement with the promise of curing her the next day after she had learned her lesson. She was still kind of wary when I came down the next morning and offered her the cure. She even tried to spit out the potion but I was able to cover her mouth and hold her nose till she swallowed. In just a minute, she was a darling 5 year-old.
I started prepping my husband, telling her that an out-of-state cousin was seriously ill and as her only living relative, she wanted me to care for her baby. He was hesitant at first, but the sob story and a few tears won him over.
Two more days have passed and it's time for the final dose. In just another minute, little Jessica will be 7 1/2 months old. At the age of 2 1/2 her little brain had gotten too small to hold her adult personality. And as the final evidence of that, now she willingly comes to take her medicine.
