Jon looked up at his mother. "Mom?"
She stood in his doorway paralyzed for a moment. "What'd you just call me?"
Jon was as still as she was. His eyes scanned a woman who was familiar yet alien. She was a bit heavier - not fat - and her body was harder and more angular. He could see the outlines of muscles on her slightly hairy arms. Her hourglass figure was gone. If Jon didn't look above her waist, he would have assumed he was looking at the legs of a man.
"Uh ... never mind," muttered Jon.
"Why'd you call me 'Mom' for?"
How could Jon explain to her what he had just done?
