I could hardly sleep that night. Was it true what my father said? My mind was reluctant to believe it. But just the thought of it made me infinitely excited. Could I be tiny and then my father become a giant? Could I worship his body as I had dreamed of so many nights?
All the next day I couldn't control my excitement either until my father came home from work.
-I got it Hugo! -he said by way of greeting, as he showed me a medical bag. I thought I was dying of excitement-. I'm going to change my clothes and we'll do it.
He left and soon after he came back, dressed now in a casual shirt and short jeans that drove me crazy, as they perfectly molded to his big legs and his desired crotch. Like many straight men, I don't think he was at all aware of the desire he was provoking. He wasted no time and was immediately putting a liquid he took out of the briefcase into a syringe. As he began to explain to me, adopting his best scientific tone:
-As I told you, in this liquid are the nanobots. As soon as I inject them into your bloodstream, they will enter your bloodstream and subsequently bind to all your cellular DNA, taking as it were "control" over your body and allowing you to alter it at will. That alteration can be of many types, but for the moment we will only use the one that allows us to control your size. Once the process is complete we will be able with this device - he showed me a small device the size of a cell phone - to send the message to the nanobots of the size we want you to be and they will take care of shrinking or enlarging you accordingly.
I was completely dumbfounded and speechless by my father's explanation. I was also - I won't deny it - a little scared. What if something went wrong? However, my father didn't give me a chance to think about it. He came to me decisively and, taking my bare arm (it was summer), he injected me with the needle.
-Just a little prick, like the vaccines we used to give you when you were little -he joked.
The liquid entered my body as if it were fire. A second later it was as if that fire became huge and spread throughout my body. I felt like I was dying.
