100. "I'm scared," he said, again in broken English, shutting his eyes in fear.
101. His struggles caught the attention of the remaining Russian women.
102. They grabbed Jim, guiding him by his now delicate hands.
103. Anya criticized, "Stepanida, you are 60 years old, remember your family."
104. Hearing this, Jim tried to explain but couldn't understand Russian.
105. He stammered, "I'm not a girl. I'm a boy," in broken English.

116. The women, seeing Jim's distress, told him, "We see your mom."
117. "There’s just one problem," she said, in very broken English.
118. Confused, Jim asked, "You found my mommy?" in equally broken English.
119. They replied, "We're going to erase your memories and make you our friend."
120. "We’re going to er-ase your mem-or-eeees and make you our friend," they wanted to say.
121. Jim pleaded, "No, I don't wanna be a girl," but it came out garbled.

140. As the transformation neared its end, pure, innocent confusion lingered for a moment.
141. "Ai am Stepanida," she realized aloud, looking down at herself.
142. Her friends returned all the jewelry, guiding her step-by-step.
143. First, she slipped on her hoop earrings.
144. Then, she clasped the necklace around her neck.

150. "What happened?" she asked her friends, now addressing them in Russian.
151. They explained, "You believed you were a little boy."
152. "I was?" she asked, looking at her body in confusion.

He traced his new eyes with his hands, noticing how different they were. 69. Trying to change them back to normal, he eventually gave up. 70. "I want to go home, I want mommy," he cried, again in broken English. 71. "Ai vant tu go home, Ai vant mammy," he'd wanted to say. 72. The sound of his voice brought tears to his eyes. 73. He played with his short, female hair, noticing his manicured nails and wedding ring. 74. He tried to remove the blouse and skirt but was unsuccessful each time. 75. First, he pulled at the blouse, but it wouldn't budge. 76. Then he tried to unzip the skirt, but the zipper seemed stuck. 77. He tugged at the hem of the skirt, but it held firm. 78. Finally, he tried to tear the fabric, but it resisted. 79. Desperate, he even tried to wiggle out, but it was impossible. 80. Jim attempted to remove the platform sandals in five different ways. 81. First, he bent down to unbuckle them, but they wouldn't unfasten. 82. Secondly, he tried to pull them off directly, but they were snug. 83. Third, he loosened the straps, but they stayed fixed. 84. Fourth, he twisted his feet, but the sandals stayed put. 85. Lastly, he even stomped, hoping to break them, but they remained intact. 86. He noticed his tiny female feet and felt grossed out. 87. "I hate hovving girl feet und talking like funny lady," he muttered in broken English. 88. "Ai hate hovving girl feet und talking like funny lady," he'd tried to say. 89. Jim lost balance as he moved, tripping and flying onto his feet again. 90. Unwillingly, he began walking in a feminine fast speedwalk. 91. The platform sandals thumped loudly against the ground, emphasizing his new walk. 92. He caught his reflection again, noticing how feminine he looked. 93. He tried to remove the first piece of jewelry, a bracelet. 94. But the clasp was tightly secured, and his fingers fumbled. 95. Next, he attempted to take off the wedding ring. 96. However, his new fingers struggled with the snug fit. 97. He moved on to a necklace, but the clasp was difficult to reach. 98. The fourth piece, an anklet, was hidden beneath the skirt, making it hard to grab. 99. Finally, the fifth piece, earrings, required nimble fingers he lacked. 100. "I'm scared," he said, again in broken English, shutting his eyes in fear. 101. His struggles caught the attention of the remaining Russian women. 102. They grabbed Jim, guiding him by his now delicate hands. 103. Anya criticized, "Stepanida, you are 60 years old, remember your family." 104. Hearing this, Jim tried to explain but couldn't understand Russian. 105. He stammered, "I'm not a girl. I'm a boy," in broken English. 106. "Ai’m not a girl. Ai’m a boy," he wanted to say, mentioning his mom and her description. 107. Worriedly, he motioned to the platform sandals and jewelry. 108. The women began removing the platform sandals and jewelry, including the wedding ring. 109. Anya noticed a woman matching Rebecca's description nearby, searching for her son. 110. She whispered to her friends, "This boy deserves a less stressful life." 111. Svetlana agreed, "He can stay in Stepanida's body." 112. Natalia mentioned, "His life as Stepanida will be less stressful. She's accomplished so much." 113. They concluded it was Jim in Stepanida's body and decided his mom would have to forget him. 114. Deciding to erase Jim's memories, they hoped he'd enjoy life as Stepanida. 115. Anya remarked, "This boy should forget and live a peaceful life as Stepanida." 116. The women, seeing Jim's distress, told him, "We see your mom." 117. "There’s just one problem," she said, in very broken English. 118. Confused, Jim asked, "You found my mommy?" in equally broken English. 119. They replied, "We're going to erase your memories and make you our friend." 120. "We’re going to er-ase your mem-or-eeees and make you our friend," they wanted to say. 121. Jim pleaded, "No, I don't wanna be a girl," but it came out garbled. 122. "No, Ai don't anna be a girl," he cried out. 123. The women began casting a spell in Russian. 124. Jim tried resisting the mental changes but quickly started to succumb. 125. Slowly, his memories of being a little boy began to fade. 126. His favorite foods and TV shows morphed into Stepanida's preferences. 127. Details like school classes and childhood games transformed. 128. He'd once liked pizza; now it was borscht and pelmeni. 129. His love for cartoons turned into an appreciation for Russian dramas. 130. The sports he enjoyed shifted to traditional Russian dances. 131. Jim's memories of his mom changed into thoughts of Stepanida's family. 132. His experiences blended seamlessly into Stepanida's lifelong memories. 133. Favorite colors transformed from blue to red. 134. Fond memories of summer vacations turned into trips to the salon. 135. Exciting playground bouts changed to memories of visiting Moscow’s landmarks. 136. Childhood friends turned into salon clients and colleagues. 137. His biggest worry – school grades – turned into running a successful salon. 138. Favorite toys became favorite beauty tools and cosmetics. 139. Birthday parties shifted into celebrations with her own children and husband. 140. As the transformation neared its end, pure, innocent confusion lingered for a moment. 141. "Ai am Stepanida," she realized aloud, looking down at herself. 142. Her friends returned all the jewelry, guiding her step-by-step. 143. First, she slipped on her hoop earrings. 144. Then, she clasped the necklace around her neck. 145. The bracelet was fastened onto her wrist. 146. Carefully, she replaced the anklet. 147. Lastly, she slid the wedding ring back into place. 148. Tentatively, she pulled the platform sandals over her now-tiny, feminine feet, tightening the straps. 149. Adjusting her blouse, skirt, and checking her nails and jewelry, she felt more herself. 150. "What happened?" she asked her friends, now addressing them in Russian. 151. They explained, "You believed you were a little boy." 152. "I was?" she asked, looking at her body in confusion. 153. "Why would I forget my husband and kids?" she laughed, talking about her accomplishments. 154. "Thank you for correcting me," she said gratefully. 155. Grabbing her head, she chuckled warmly at the incident, looking at her jewelry again. 156. She commented on her tiny feet, "Такие крохотные ножки у меня." 157. Her friends decided to quiz her to ensure she remembered everything correctly. 158. "Stepanida, what is your birthday?" they asked in Russian. 159. "June 23, 1960." 160. "How many children do you have?" another asked. 161. "Three wonderful children." 162. "What's your husband's name?" they inquired. 163. "Dmitri." 164. "How long have you been married?" they continued. 165. "Thirty-five glorious years." 166. "Where did you grow up?" they concluded. 167. "In a small village near Moscow." 168. Then, they asked five things about her life only she'd know. 169. "What is your favorite childhood memory?" 170. "Fishing with my grandfather near the river." 171. "What's your favorite song?" 172. "Калинка - a classic Russian folk song." 173. "Who was your first client in America?" 174. "Mrs. Johnson - she wanted a haircut." 175. "What is your special skill at the salon?" 176. "Proficient in hair coloring." 177. "Favorite holiday?" 178. "New Year’s Eve - lots of celebrations!" 179. Satisfied, her friends smiled, confirming Stepanida was back. 180. She adjusted her jewelry, feeling the familiar thump of her sandals, chuckling at the situation.
