Billy sat cross-legged on the floor, the flickering light from the TV reflecting off his wide-eyed face as the clock struck midnight. The latest combat maneuver in his favorite video game was just too thrilling to put down, bedtime or not. But before he could execute another combo, the bedroom door swung open, revealing his dad, an imposing figure with muscles rippling under his hairy chest and arms. With a resigned sigh, his dad lifted Billy up and carried him to his room effortlessly, placing him gently onto his bed.
“Okay, buddy, enough's enough. No more games tonight,” his dad said as he confiscated Billy’s treasured console.
As he snuggled under his blanket, Billy mumbled, “I wish I could tell Dad what to do for a change…”
Morning came, and Billy yawned as he got out of bed. The comforting smell of breakfast cooking was noticeably absent. Curious, Billy tiptoed to his dad’s bedroom to investigate. To his astonishment, there stood his dad's body, headless and only clad in the jockstrap he wore to bed. The body seemed entirely engrossed in flexing its enormous arms, patting its own brawny chest like it was suddenly discovering itself.
“Dad?” Billy hesitated before ordering, “Uh, go make breakfast.”
The body complied without hesitation, turning and heading to the kitchen. Following closely, Billy watched in amazement as the headless body expertly prepared pancakes and scrambled eggs. With exaggerated movements, it plated everything, then stood by, flexing its well-defined muscles while Billy ate, picking up plates afterward and rinsing them diligently.
Pondering further possibilities, Billy directed, “Dad’s body, go send an e-mail to my school saying I’m sick and staying home today.”
Obediently, the body sat at the computer and, with surprising dexterity, logged in and sent the email. Enthusiastic now, Billy continued issuing commands.
“Now, buy me more video games.”
In a flash, the credit card information was entered, and a fresh stack of video games was ordered for delivery. Billy started to get adventurous.
“Come on, let's see how strong you really are.”
He led his dad’s body to the basement gym. There, under Billy’s watchful eye, the body began lifting weights. Billy kept increasing the load until the muscles quivered and finally reached muscle failure. Wheezing slightly in a faceless manner, the body was clearly exhausted.
“Okay, time for a shower,” Billy said sympathetically.
The body moved to the bathroom, tenderly massaging its sore, swollen muscles. Billy marveled at how it soaped and rinsed itself meticulously, almost enjoying the ritual.
The rest of the day was a blend of indulgence. Billy played his new video games while his dad's body toiled away at the computer, replying to work emails and completing tasks. Come afternoon, the diligent body vacuumed, dusted, and did the laundry. Evening arrived, and another hearty meal was made for Billy. Yet, as he watched his dad’s body move robotically, Billy began to feel a pang of guilt.
That night, Billy commanded, “Dad’s body, sit down here.”
He climbed onto the muscly shoulder blades and massaged gently, his small hands working out the knots with surprising efficacy. The muscular back visibly relaxed, and a large hand patted Billy's in silent gratitude.
Finally, Billy said softly, “Go get some rest.”
The obedient body, showing signs of exhaustion, shuffled to the bedroom and lay down. Billy pulled up the blanket, tucking it in gently. The headless body, content and serene, seemed to sigh in relief, its massive chest rising and falling rhythmically as sleep claimed it.
Billy whispered, "Thanks for today, Dad," and quietly tiptoed out of the room, leaving his dad's body to dream—head or not. The house finally settled into a peaceful quiet, signaling the end of a very unusual but rather humorous day.
