Katie was full of excitement and a bit of nervousness as she walked home alone for the first time. Her 20-year-old mom had given her permission with a solemn promise that she'd be safe and get home as soon as possible. The six-year-old just wanted to prove she was responsible.
She wore her favorite outfit: a plain blue t-shirt, faded jeans with a few patches, and her trusty red sneakers. Despite her mom's occasional efforts to doll her up in more traditionally girly clothes, Katie resisted. She didn’t like ruffles and dresses and especially despised anything pink.
As she trudged along the sidewalk, she noticed something glittering near the curb. She spotted a pair of flimsy sandals, their straps encrusted with tiny rhinestones and glinting in the sun. They weren’t pink, but they were still far too girly for Katie’s taste.
"Ew, too girly. I like sneakers better," Katie exclaimed, scrunching up her tiny nose.
She tried to steer clear of the sandals, but her foot caught on a crack in the pavement, and she tripped. Her sneakers flew off her feet as she stumbled forward, her bare toes slipping into the skimpy sandals.
"Ew, too girly! Get them off! These are strangers' shoes!" she cried, trying in vain to kick them off, but they seemed glued to her feet.
Katie's small, innocent feet began to transform. They cracked and aged, changing shades from her youthful pale to a rich, warm brown. Her toenails extended, darkening and gaining a coat of glossy red polish.
"Ew, nail polish! I don't like nail polish! Mommy, help!" Katie wailed, but her voice didn’t carry the same childish pitch.
Her legs elongated, growing lithe and shapely as her lower torso and chest swiftly matured. Her tiny frame expanded, adjusting to the new depth of womanhood, turning the same warm brown. Her arms stretched, her fingers becoming elegant and long, each nail matching the red polish on her toes.
Katie, or who she used to be, felt her face morph. Her childlike features matured, her hair darkened and curled into a sophisticated style that framed her face. Her voice, now mature and resonant, spoke truths that the old Katie would never embrace.
"No, too girly, these shoes are too-------" she trailed off.
"Bae, these sandals are fab, and this pedicure is divine," she purred proudly, her voice rich with experience and confidence. She caught a reflection in a nearby window. A voluptuous black woman of around 55-60 years stood before her, shoed feet confidently planted.
Her name was Regina, standing tall at 5'8" and weighing around 160 pounds. Regina’s birthday was January 3rd, 1963, making her 40 years older than her daughter. She hailed from Queens, New York, not Georgia. She had curves and D-cups that she flaunted proudly. The outfit that adorned her now was undeniably skimpy—a sparkling gold top that hugged her expanded chest, a tight short skirt that shimmered with her every movement, and gold bangles dancing around her wrists. A stylish clutch sprouted over her shoulder, containing lipstick, a compact mirror, and a wallet.
She ran her hands over her body, feeling the new angles and sweet smoothness of her skin. "Mmm, girl, you lookin' fine. Look at this manicure and pedicure. All done up in red. This outfit is on point, and these sandals... perfect," she admired herself in the reflection.
Regina hyped herself up, "I’m 60 years old and feelin' fabulous. January 3rd, 1963, was the day this queen was born in Queens, New York. And yes, my daughters can be a handful, let me tell ya! Callin' myself Regina from Queens, ya heard?"
"I remember the year 1975 'cause that was the year them racist white fools came after me, callin' me a nigga. I was only twelve years old and it was in the city of New York, all because I'm black," she recalled with anger and pride etched in her voice.
Disgusted, she dropped the old sneakers and socks she was still holding. "These shoes ain't cute," she said with a sharp snap in her voice. "I would only ever wear shoes that show off my beautiful black feet and this bangin' pedicure!" she declared sassily, her accent wrapping around each word.
With a proud strut, Regina walked away, leaving her old life—and the remnants of Katie—far behind.
