Opening the door Lauren was caught off guard by the image of her old body standing there. With her hands on her hips Lonna asked “Ms Rodriguez why was the door locked young lady?”
Rolling her eyes Lauren stated “um maybe because I like didn’t want other classmates or teachers coming in her. I don’t know about you but I’m not really into this whole situation.” As she gestured to her new body. “And pretending to be you isn’t what I signed up for.”
Lonna making her way into her old classroom looked around. It already felt distant to her. Thinking to herself “pretending to be you is exactly what I signed up for.” Smiling with the thought “the exact break I needed.”
Lauren seeing her old body smiling yelled “and what are you smiling at?!?”
Lonna laughed “it’s nothing, just seeing you say you wanted to be in control. Looks like you got it.”
Crossing her arms Lauren got defensive. “Please I might not like this body but your life is great. I’m in charge. No more homework and teachers pushing me around.”
Lonna laughed “oh really! You can gladly have it. School work and high school will be a breeze. This wish might have gave me your 18 year old body but it also gave me you cakewalk of a life.”
“You’ll see Ms Tran, being a teenager isn’t easy.” Lauren stated pushing her now black hair out of her face.
Smiling Lonna stated “I did it once before, I can do it again for a bit.”
Just then the bell rang. The two looked at each other and knew they’d have to finish this conversation after school. “Have fun in history” Lauren teased, oddly hearing Ms Trans voice in that tone.
Turning on her sneakers Lonna smiled “I’ll be back after class. Don’t be to stressed out.” And with that Lauren watched her old body walk out the door as other students filled in.
