Two and a Half Months

Ralph and Jennifer were still coming to grips with the fact that they’d swapped bodies with their parents. Neither had been exemplary teenage children that year and their parents decided to punish them by swapping their bodies and leaving them in theirs while they both went to spend a youthful summer as councilors at a summer camp. What Ralph and Jennifer didn’t understand was why Ralph was now their mother Donna and Jennifer was now their father Mike. “Because it’s funny.” Their mother said, before the two parents left, leaving the new adults alone at home for two and a half months.
