She grabbed her right flip flop, putting it on her right foot step-by-step: 159. 1. She picked it up. 160. 2. She slid her foot into it. 161. She put her hair up into a bun step-by-step: 162. 1. She gathered her hair. 163. 2. She twisted it into a coil. 164. 3. She wrapped it around itself. 165. 4. She secured it with a hair tie. 166. 5. She smoothed any flyaways. 167. 6. She checked her reflection. 168. 7. She adjusted the bun slightly. 169. 8. She smiled, satisfied with her hairdo. 170. She put on her six pieces of jewelry step-by-step: 171. 1. She picked up the gold hoop earrings. 172. 2. She placed them through her ears. 173. 3. She picked up her wedding ring. 174. 4. She slid it onto her left ring finger. 175. 5.

She fiddled with her necklace. 184. 14. She admired the sparkle of her wedding ring. 185. 15. She adjusted the rings on her fingers. 186. 16. She added the anklet. 187. 17. She smiled, content with her look. 188. She clip-clopped over to her purse. 189. She picked it up. 190. She pulled out her sunglasses. 191. She put them over her eyes. 192. She threw her purse over her shoulder. 193. She clip-clopped towards the mirror, stubbing her toe. 194. "¡Ay!" she yelped and continued to the mirror. 195. She looked at the reflection, smiling. 196. "Ay Rosa, you’re such a beautiful woman even if I am 310 pounds. I love being a mother. I love my husband and my daughter. I don't look bad for 47 years old." 197. She thought of her husband and smiled, saying, "Te quiero mucho, mi amor." 198. She never changed back and forgot her previous life entirely. 199. Rosa decided to visit her former home. 200. She got in her car and drove to her old neighborhood. 201. She clip-clopped up to her former front door. 202. She knocked and waited. 203. Sarah, her former mom, answered the door. 204. "Rosa! Have you seen Alex?" 205. "Um, no. No seen Alex," Rosa replied in broken English, feeling a strange pull of sympathy. 206. "If you do, could you please call us? We’re very worried," Sarah pleaded. 207. "Yes, yes. I call you," Rosa promised as she turned to leave. 208. As she walked away, she felt an odd pang of familiarity. 209. But she shrugged it off. 210. She was Rosa now. 211. And she had a family to get back to. 212. She drove back to her own home. 213. Carlos and Maria were waiting for her. 214. "Mamá! ÂżDĂłnde estabas?" MarĂa asked. 215. "Oh, just visiting an old friend," Rosa said with a smile. 216. As days passed, Rosa fully embraced her life. 217. She cooked meals with love. 218. She cared for Maria with devotion. 219. She cherished every moment with Carlos. 220. And she never looked back. 221. Sarah continued searching for her son. 222. She put up missing posters. 223. She called all his friends. 224. She even went to the police. 225. But there was no trace of him. 226. The days turned into weeks. 227. One day, Rosa saw Sarah again at the grocery store. 228. Sarah looked tired and worn out. 229. Rosa felt a twinge of sadness. 230. "I hope you find your son," she said sincerely. 231. Sarah nodded, tears welling up in her eyes. 232. "Thank you, Rosa," she whispered. 233. Rosa went back home, deep in thought. 234. But as she hugged Maria and kissed Carlos that night, she felt peace. 235. Alex's existence faded from people's memories. 236. He was just a distant sorrow for Sarah. 237. His disappearance became another mystery. 238. A chapter closed in one life. 239. And a new one thrived in another. 240. Rosa lived happily with her family. 241. She cherished every moment. 242. She cooked delicious Mexican dishes. 243. She sang Maria lullabies in Spanish. 244. She danced with Carlos in the living room. 245. Every so often, a thought would flicker. 246. Something about a little boy. 247. But it always disappeared as fast as it came. 248. Rosa was completely transformed. 249. Completely content. 250. One night, as she tucked Maria into bed, Maria asked, "Mamá, have you ever felt like you were someone else?" 251. Rosa thought for a moment, then smiled. 252. "No, mi amor. I am exactly who I am meant to be." 253. She kissed Maria gently on the forehead. 254. "Buenas noches, mi hija. Sleep well," she whispered. 255. Rosa turned off the light and left the room. 256. She walked to her bedroom. 257. Carlos was already asleep. 258. She slipped into bed and closed her eyes. 259. And soon, she drifted into dreams of a life filled with love. 260. A life that was now hers completely.
