Maria Martinez was wearing a white tank top with colorful floral patterns, blue denim shorts, pink flip-flops with a flower-shaped decoration, and oversized sunglasses with a rhinestone-studded frame. She had six pieces of jewelry: 1) large hoop earrings, 2) a gold chain necklace, 3) two gold bangles, 4) a wedding ring, 5) a delicate bracelet, and 6) an anklet. Her nails were painted a vibrant red.

Oliver had a small toy truck that he was fiddling with when Maria noticed and took it from him. "No, no, pequeño," she said, "You a no play with a this."

Oliver, in perfect English, begged, "Please, can I have it back?"

"No," she replied sternly, "You no have it."

Turning to her daughter, Maria said, "Isabella, papi and I are going out."

Isabella nudged Oliver and said, "Go to my room and look for your truck."

Oliver walked to Isabella’s room, taking off his shoes and socks before going in. He saw his toy truck across the room and began walking towards it. Suddenly, he tripped over something and looked down to find himself wearing Maria’s pink flip-flops. He aggressively kicked them off, as he disliked girly clothes, but then noticed his feet were cracking, aging, and turning a darker shade. Red toenail polish formed on his toes. Oliver freaked out, exclaiming, "What's happening to me?"

His legs softened, becoming chubbier, and a pair of panties replaced his underwear. His body shifted into a woman's shape, and a bra appeared on him. His hands and arms changed as red nail polish appeared on his fingernails, and his arms grew chubbier. “No, no! This can’t be real!” he yelled.

His face and hair transformed into those of Maria’s (in order, the specific changes being his nose, jawline, cheekbones, eyes, ears, eyebrows, eyelids, lips, voice, and accent). Frightened, he screamed in broken English, “M-m-mommy, what h-happening?”

Covering his mouth at the sound of his new voice, he said, "¡Oh no! ¿Uh what I uh talking? Uh I sound uh old!” Realizing his hair was now longer and tied into a bun, he pulled it loose and started crying. Desperately trying to scrape off the nail polish, his memories faded into those of Maria’s until he only remembered being her.

Standing up, she looked around bewilderedly, exclaiming, “¿¡Buhwhat!?” She observed herself and decided to get dressed. Carefully, she grabbed her tank top, putting it on in the following steps:

1. Ensuring it was the right way around.
2. Slipping her left arm through.
3. Pulling it over her head.
4. Putting her right arm through.
5. Adjusting it over her shoulders.
6. Straightening it at the back.
7. Making sure it covered her midsection.
8. Smoothing out any wrinkles.
9. Taking a final look to ensure it fit well.
10. Fixing any last adjustments.

Next, she grabbed her shorts, putting them on:

1. Holding them open.
2. Stepping in with her right leg.
3. Stepping in with her left leg.
4. Pulling them up over her hips.
5. Fastening the button.
6. Zipping the fly.
7. Adjusting the waistband.
8. Ensuring they sat comfortably.
9. Checking the fit in the mirror.
10. Fixing any remaining bunched-up fabric.

For her flip-flops, she grabbed her left one first, putting it on:

1. Facing it correctly.
2. Placing her toes in.
3. Sliding her foot down.
4. Securing the strap between her toes.
5. Ensuring it fit perfectly.
6. Confirming comfort.

Then the right one:

1. Holding it right side up.
2. Placing her toes in.
3. Sliding her foot down.
4. Adjusting the strap.
5. Ensuring proper fit.
6. Confirming comfort.

She took a few steps to test her footwear, listing specifically what she did:

1. Took a slow step forward.
2. Felt the strap against her toes.
3. Shifted her weight to her other foot.
4. Noted the flip-flop’s grip.
5. Checked balance.
6. Took another step.
7. Observed comfort.
8. Analyzed mobility.
9. Adjusted pace.
10. Moved faster to test agility.

She put her hair up in a bun:

1. Gathering all her hair.
2. Twisting it into a coil.
3. Holding the base.
4. Wrapping it around.
5. Creating a knot.
6. Securing with a hair tie.
7. Tucking loose ends.
8. Ensuring it was tight.

Next, she grabbed her jewelry, putting it on:

1. Took her first hoop earring.
2. Inserted it into her earlobe.
3. Clipped it securely.
4. Repeated for the second hoop.
5. Fastened her necklace.
6. Put on the bangles.
7. Slide on her bracelet.
8. Slipped on the anklet.
9. Felt each piece to ensure security.
10. Verified everything was in place.
11. Checked her reflection.
12. Smiled at the result.
13. Rotated her wrists for comfort.
14. Adjusted the fit of her bangles.
15. Touched each piece to feel the texture.
16. Ensured no irritation.
17. Savored the sense of adornment.

Finally, she grabbed her purse, taking out her sunglasses and putting them on:

1. Opening her purse.
2. Retrieving the sunglasses.
3. Unfolding the frame.
4. Placing them over her eyes.
5. Adjusting the placement.
6. Ensuring they were straight.

Slipping her purse over her shoulder, she clip-clopped towards a mirror, stubbing her toe and yelling, “¡AY!” Shaking off the pain, she looked at her reflection and said, “¡AY! Maria, you no look bad for 55 year old. I love my husband. He so a-oh handsome y cariñoso.” Embracing her new reality, she decided it was time to visit her former family.

Driving over, Maria parked and clip-clopped up to the door, knocking. Emily opened the door and asked, "Have you seen Oliver?"

"No," Maria said, stepping inside and sitting down, causing the furniture to creak.

Emily complimented, "I love your outfit and your accent. You sound so authentic."

Maria beamed, bragging, "I love being Mexican and I love red nail polish."

Feeling at home, Maria headed to the fridge, criticizing the lack of Mexican cuisine. "You need more Mexican dishes," she said, "and some good beer and tequila like Corona, Modelo, Pacifico, Victoria, Tecate, Dos Equis, Sol, Bohemia, Jose Cuervo, and El Jimador."

Emily began to cry as Maria left, clip-clopping back to her car intent on remedying the situation. At the store, she grabbed the ingredients and asked for all ten alcohol brands.

The cashier asked, "ID, please?"

Confused, Maria responded with five questions: "ID? Why? I need ID? How old do you think I am?"

The cashier, maintaining policy, answered each query in perfect English, "We ask everyone, store rules, regardless of apparent age, for consistency."

Annoyed, Maria exclaimed, "¡This is ridiculous!"

She clip-clopped out, loaded her car, and drove back to Emily’s, popping open a beer upon arrival, and cooking a large, intricate mole poblano feast. She put on salsa music, listening to contemporary artists like Luis Miguel, Selena, Alejandro Fernandez, Juan Gabriel, Gloria Trevi, Banda MS, Ana Gabriel, Vicente Fernandez, Thalía, and Marco Antonio Solís.

From there, Maria settled into her new identity, never remembering her past, thriving in a world where she was always who she believed herself to be.
