# The Wishing Sandals

Connor was a lively seven-year-old with a mop of curly brown hair and big, inquisitive green eyes. He stood a lithe 4 feet tall and weighed about 45 pounds, a sprightly figure in his Spider-Man hoodie, denim shorts, and a pair of bright blue sneakers. He had his slim orange backpack slung over one shoulder, brimming with money his mom had entrusted him to spend on whatever he wished. For the first time, he was going somewhere alone with permission from his 22-year-old mom, who had given him a little blue stone as a good luck charm.

It was his birthday, March 12, 2024, and he'd been born in 2017. His mom had given him the green light to explore the local park's carnival independently. Excited, Connor clutched his good luck charm, the small blue stone his mom had found on a family trip last summer, as he followed the directions she had given him.

Everything was going well as he strolled down Maple Avenue, but the rapidly setting sun cast eerie shadows, and before long, Connor found himself uncertain of his path. The carnival lights flickered enticingly in the distance, but Connor felt the onset of panic. The streets grew unfamiliar, and his heart pounded against his ribcage.

In an alleyway corner, he noticed something strange and slightly unsettling: a pair of platform flip-flops, unlike anything he had ever seen. They weren't pink but instead a soft lavender shade with intricate floral designs etched into them. The platforms brought the sandals about three inches off the ground yet remained flat. Nearby lay a purse filled with feminine essentials, an ORCA card, an EBT card, and a driver's license bearing the name "Dorothy Johnson." The face on the card was that of a 49-year-old woman, born in 1975, weighing 350 pounds, standing 5'3", with no hair and dark brown eyes. Dorothy was homeless, as evident from the humble state of her belongings: an old walker and a frayed blonde wig.

Connorā€™s initial plan was to avoid the strange objects, but as he began to step backward, he tripped over something unseen. His Spider-Man sneakers and socks flew off his feet, his backpack tumbled away, and his good luck charm landed several feet from him. He stumbled, landing his feet directly in the lavender platform flip-flops.

Connor immediately felt a wave of disgust. "Eww, girly sandals!" he exclaimed, trying desperately to pry them off. But something uncanny began to happen. His feet started cracking and aging, gradually feminizing to fit the sandals. His toenails elongated unnaturally and sprouted a vibrant shade of red polish.

"MOMMY!" he screamed, terrified. "I don't wanna be a girl!"

His legs began to swell and feminize, his torso and chest expanding and shaping into a fuller female form. His arms and hands transformed too, his fingernails displaying the same glossy red polish. A jolt electrified his brain, making him wonder momentarily why he had left his walker and purse.

"No, I'm not a girl, I want Mommy!" he cried in a higher-pitched voice. His hair fell out in clumps until he was bald, and his clothes morphed into a revealing lavender dress adorned with ruffles and lace. His memories grew foggy and rearranged themselves until he could only recall being Dorothy.

Dorothy was confused and stumbly as she noticed her belongings. She shuffled to her walker, clutching hold of it before tottering over to the wig. Her hands shook as she carefully placed it on her bald head, smoothing down the synthetic blonde strands with precision.

Dorothy then turned her walker around to the purse, sitting down in the worn seat. She hooked the purse straps on her lap, meticulously standing up before looping the purse onto one of the walker's handles. She shuffled down the street, stopping in front of a dingy storefront window that served as a makeshift mirror.

"I so fucking hate being homeless and weighing 350 pounds and being such an old and weak female. I've always had a health problem, but at least when I was younger, I was stronger. Now I'm 49 years old, and any man could harm me if he wanted to. Just relax, Dorothy, you're 49 years old, you've been homeless for 5 years; you know to always sleep near the shelter and hide your walker behind the dumpster. I just wish I didn't lose my beautiful long black hair to chemotherapy. Glad I got this blonde wig from behind the thrift store and cleaned it up," she muttered to herself, shaking her head.

Her eye caught sight of the small blue stone, which she picked up, contemplating. "I could probably sell this for a quick 10 bucks; I could use another fix of meth."

She opened the fallen backpack, her eyes widening as she found it stuffed with money. "I sure do feel bad for the young man that lost this, but I really need this money. I'm running low on tampons and pads and could get some more makeup and nail polish. Just a few of the only benefits of being a woman that I loveā€”the little things that make me forget I have cancer and that I can feel like a goddess or a princess. Princess Dorothy just has a nice ring to it, even though I'm like 30 years older than most females that call themselves that. Just glad my younger sister doesn't have to see me like this."

With a sigh, Dorothy shuffled down the street, the lavender floral platform flip-flops echoing hauntingly in the abandoned alleyways.
