From the song "Opposite Day."
Monsters
Harold awoke to the sun streaming onto his face. He felt refreshed; everything seemed right in the world. Yawning, he rubbed the sleep out of his eyes, then froze.
Something was very wrong.
Pulling his arms away from his face, Harold stared at them in horror. He cried out—terrible, primal sounds.
Penny came quickly. When she saw him she stopped. “Oh, Harold.”
He was pale, deflated. “Look at me. I’m a monster.”
Penny caressed his human hands with her tentacles. “Curse or no curse, I’ll always love you. But, the next time you cross a Sea Witch, apologize, okay?”
