Jon and his new sister headed out to the parking lot. He looked around for his mother's car. "There she is," his companion said, walking toward an SUV he didn't recognize. He followed her...confused by that as well.
She went for the passenger's door and slipped in. He opened the rear door, and was about to slide in himself when he saw who was driving, and his jaw dropped. It was...Sarah McMillan...but she was old...although still attractive. She had a slightly less impressive bust, shorter hair, but she was an attractive woman. "Jon...what's wrong?" She asked. "You look like you've seen a ghost."
He forced his jaw to drop. "Just...umm...surprised you are here," he lied.
"Well, I had a big presentation, and it finished early...so I thought maybe we'd go out and have dinner. Mikey is at his friend's house...so just the three of us."
Presentation? But his mom worked for a lawyer...maybe this one didn't. But this Sarah looked so...sincere, so maternal...he wondered if her true self would grow up to be less of a shady character. But...more importantly...how had she grown up? He'd made a wish about the girls at his school...and Sarah wasn't a girl anymore...she had become a woman. Something had to have gone wrong.
