Title: A Quirky Coin
Ever since we were kids, nobody could figure out what to get mom for Mother's Day. She had an uncanny ability to foresee any surprise planned out. We had entirely given up when we passed by a quaint little shop one day, full of trinkets and baubles. Amongst the clutter, a tiny enchanting wishing coin caught our eye.
It stood out among the usual kitschy items with its unusual glow. The coin was advertized as a wish granter — a claim so fantastical that none of us bought into it. We simply thought it would make a good paperweight or conversation starter. So, we pooled in our resources and decided to get that for our Mom.
When Mother’s Day came by, we handed her the coin and told her what the shopkeeper had advertised. We watched as she held the coin, turned it over in her hand, and chuckled heartily at the outrageousness of the claim. But, playing along, she whimsically wished that all of us were more like her.
Overnight, we woke up to a shock. My brothers and I were no longer in our bodies. Instead, we were clones of our mother. It took a few mirror checks and panicked conferences for us to fully understand what had happened. We looked just like mom. From her olive skin tone to her hazel eyes.
We tried to adjust to our new reality at the longstanding family pool party. One after the other, we trudged into the party, each in replicas of mom's various one-pieces or bikinis. Onlookers blinked and double blinked as we sauntered by. Dad especially looked shocked. Clearly, he didn't expect to see multiple versions of his wife. In his confusion, he accidentally swatted all our newly acquired rears - an inadvertent gesture of surprise that deepened his embarrassment further.
And then came the belly flopping contest we had every year. Only, it was a whole lot different this time. Let me tell you, I could have never imagined that bellyflopping would hurt a lot more with large boobs attached to the chest. Each flip became a painful game, leaving us disoriented in the water.
The whole pool party soon turned into a surreal experience. Dad cracking jokes about needing glasses, us navigating through our new bodies, and the cousins laughing their hearts out at our absolute strangeness.
Though it was absurd and chaotic, mother's giggle amidst the madness was the most comforting sound. As she laughed, watching her boys turn into her clones, she whispered, “Well, at least my wish came true!”
And under those circumstances, we learned to laugh too, for it was indeed the strangest Mother’s Day anyone ever had.
