(Marco's bedroom)
Star walked back and forth with a big wide smile as she waited for Marco's return from school. Once he arrived, the girl immediately walked to Marco and failed to his utterly depressed, dejected look. "So, how did it go?" Star asked as Marco threw his backpack to the floor and hit his bed, "Tell me everything!"
"It went terrible, Star, I just couldn't utter a single word when she went past me today! I'm utterly convinced now that what I managed to tell her in the freeze day incident was a fluke!"
Surprised and shocked by the remark, Star quickly looked everywhere for a way to cheer Marco up before she saw her wand and got an ideas. "Marco, I know how to help you. Single Day Role Reversal Illusion!"
With that said, Star waved her wand and it released a pink shockwave that affected all of Echo Creek. Marco then woke up, and saw that things felt...different, somehow. "Star, what did you do this time?"
"I used a spell to create a temporary illusion where you and Jackie swap roles for a certain amount of time so you can recreate that thing of yours," Star explained, "only with you as the hot guy on a skateboard and Jackie as the neurotic person who is too shy to reveal her true feelings."
Marco is initially offended by Star's remark, but he quickly shrugged it off once he checked his watch. "Oh look, the time when she usually walks past, I say hi and she leaves is about to come."
Marco got off his bed, but before he could go to the door, Star stopped him and showed him a skateboard just like Jackie's, only with different colors. "Cool, but before you go, take a look at your brand new skateboard!"
Marco took the skateboard and scanned it before giving Star a pleased look. "This is really cool! Thanks Star."
"No problem, now go and greet this world's version of Jackie!"
Marco nodded in agreement and headed to the illusion echo creek academy.
(Later)
Marco hid behind a wall and caught a glimpse of Jackie, who was waiting impatiently for Marco to arrive. "Where is he?! It's already 7:56 AM! He should have come here already!"
"Ha, that's so something I would do," Marco remarked.
Marco took a deep breath, got on his skateboard and went past Jackie, sharing a nod with the girl before going deeper into the academy. He stopped and watched a proud Jackie lift her arms victoriously before walking to her classroom. "So this is how it feels to be in Jackie's shoes."
Then he looked down and saw he was literally wearing Jackie's shoes, "wait, what? Well, Star was bound to make a mistake or two."
(Back in reality)
Marco suddenly woke up now back to the normal reality, and with a smile across his face. Star, who was sitting next to him, leaned closer and asked "Are you feeling better now, Marco?"
The boy took a deep breath before stating, "Yes, much, much better."
