She wore navy blue shorts that reached her knees with a white stripe down each side. 54. Her flip flops were pink with a thin, sparkly strap. 55. Her sunglasses had a black frame with mirrored blue lenses. 56. Anita was wearing: 1. Large hoop earrings. 2. A wedding ring. 3. A gold chain necklace. 4. A silver bracelet. 5. A watch with a leather strap. 6. A ring on her right ring finger. 57. Her nails were painted a bright red color. 58. Anita saw something shiny in Diego’s hand and quickly snatched it away. 59. "What you got dere Diego? No playing wit dat!" she chastised in broken English. 60. "Please, Mrs. Lopez, that’s mine!" Diego begged in perfect English. 61. "No, you no have back!" Anita replied, shaking her head. 62. "Maria, come here! Me and Carlos we going out now. You stay here with Diego," Anita instructed. 63. "Let’s go get your thing, Diego," Maria whispered, leading him to her room. 64. Diego removed his shoes and socks before entering the room. 65. He spotted his item, a shiny toy car, and walked over to retrieve it. 66. As he did, he tripped over something and looked down in surprise. 67. His feet were now in the flip flops Anita had been wearing earlier. 68. Diego angrily kicked them off, disliking girly clothes. 69. To his horror, his feet began to crack and age, turning a darker shade as red toenail polish formed on his toes. 70. "Ewww! Red nail polish? Gross!" Diego exclaimed in disgust. 71. His legs shifted, becoming chubby and feminine, as panties formed on him. 72. His body continued to change, his frame becoming wider and more feminine as a bra appeared on his chest. 73. His arms grew chubbier, and red nail polish formed on his fingernails. 74. His hands became slender and his arms fleshed out. 75. Diego’s head and hair began to transform, and his 10 new features matched Anita: 1. Same black hair pulled into a bun. 2. Same brown eyes. 3. Same full, round cheeks. 4. Same wider, rounded nose. 5. Same red lipstick painted lips. 6. Same chubby cheeks. 7. Same slight double chin. 8. Same round, oval face. 9. Same thin eyebrows. 10. Same middle-aged skin texture. 76. "No, why am I turning into Mrs. Lopez?" Diego freaked out. 77. A small part of him realized he was almost as old as his grandma, making him uncomfortable. 78. "I don't wanna be old like grandma!" he cried out. 79. His voice changed to Anita’s, with an accent, and the changes started to hurt more. 80. "!AY!" he yelped, covering his mouth in shock. 81. He cried out, "Mommy! Why do I sound so old?" covering his mouth again. 82. "Why I speak like dis? What happening to my voice and accent?" he continued in frustration. 83. Diego pulled his now longer hair out of the bun, tears streaming down his face. 84. He bent down and desperately tried to scrape the nail polish off his feet. 85. His memories began to shift until he only remembered being Anita Lopez. 86. "Que why I on the floor? Why looking at my feet?" she asked in confusion. 87. Standing up, she wondered why she had been on the floor and looking at her feet. 88. She thought of Carlos and smiled, saying his name with a thick accent. 89. Standing up, she decided to get dressed, putting on her floral tank top: 1. Pick up the tank top. 2. Slide arms through the armholes. 3. Pull it over her head. 4. Adjust the neckline. 5. Smooth out the fabric over her shoulders. 6. Tug it down over her torso. 7. Adjust the hem to sit comfortably. 8. Make sure it fits smoothly. 9. Check for any wrinkles. 10.

Slide it on her right ring finger. 16. Adjust all jewelry pieces for comfort. 17. Admire herself in the mirror. 95. Anita grabbed her purse, pulling out her sunglasses and putting them over her eyes. 96. She threw the purse over her shoulder. 97. Taking a couple of steps in the flip flops to test their fit: 1. Take slow, cautious steps. 2. Feel the straps holding her feet. 3. Adjust her footing for stability. 4. Increase her speed slightly. 5. Notice the flip flops make a sound. 6. Speed up even more. 7. Feel the material against her feet. 8. Adjust her speed for comfort. 9. Walk confidently in the flip flops. 10. Be satisfied with how they fit. 98. Walking toward her mirror, she stubbed her toe, yelling "!AY!". 99. She bent down, grabbing her foot in pain. 100. Frustrated, she scolded herself, "!Anita, como tonta! Ya sabes que es vieja!". 101. She used her hands to give herself a pinch as punishment. 102. Anita never changed back and lost all memory of being Diego. 103. She left the house, driving over to her former mom's house. 104. Knocking on the door, she waited patiently. 105. Her former mom answered and asked, "Have you seen my son?" 106. Confused, Anita responded, "Que? No understand. Who your son?". 107. Anita walked inside and sat down, causing the furniture to creak under her weight. 108. Her former mom complimented her outfit and jewelry, "You look lovely today, Anita!". 109. Beaming, Anita bragged, "Gracias! I work hard for dis! You look young today!". 110. Anita walked over to the fridge, opening it and criticizing, "Why you have no Mexican food? You need better like Corona, Tecate, and Tequila!". 111. Feeling resolute, Anita left the house, intending to buy the ingredients for the Mexican food she believed her former mom should always have. 112. Arriving at the store, Anita gathered all the ingredients she needed. 113. She asked for some Mexican alcohol brands, pronouncing them perfectly, "¿Tiene usted Corona, Tecate, Tequila?". 114. The female cashier asked, "Can I see your ID, please?". 115. Confused, Anita responded, "Que? Por qué?" adjusting her sunglasses. 116. The cashier repeated, "I need to see your ID to sell you alcohol.". 117. "!AY! Yo nacà en 1957. Tengo sesenta y seis años y he visto mucho. Ya sabes que soy vieja," Anita replied in frustration. 118. She listed 5 things to prove her age: 1. "I born November fourteen nineteen fifty-seven." 2. "I am sixty-six." 3. "I have grandkids." 4. "Am married many years." 5. "I own home for long time." 119. She recalled 5 memories of her childhood in Mexico: 1. "I play with dolls in little town Queretaro." 2. "I run in fields of maize." 3. "I eat homemade tortillas." 4. "I walk to mercado with mama." 5. "I live in small casa with big familia." 120. The cashier remained firm, defending her rule and responding to all 5: 1. "I understand, but I still need an ID." 2. "It’s store policy." 3. "We ask everyone." 4. "No exceptions." 5. "I’m sorry, ma’am." 121. Frustrated, Anita requested, "Can another Mexican cashier help me?". 122. The cashier called over a younger Mexican cashier. 123. The younger cashier asked, "How can I help you?". 124. Anita asked, "You speak Spanish?". 125. The Mexican cashier replied, "Yes, I do.". 126. "¿Cuántos años tienes?" Anita asked the new cashier. 127. "Tengo veinticinco años," the cashier responded. 128. Anita explained her frustration in Spanish, "Estoy frustrada porque no cree que soy vieja.". 129. The Mexican cashier replied, "Entiendo. Déjame hablar con ella.". 130. Turning to the other cashier, the Mexican cashier said, "She’s clearly old enough. This is ridiculous.". 131. In frustration, Anita remarked, "Nada más estúpido.". 132. Anita headed out to her car, loading everything in, uttering, "Maldita sea," in annoyance. 133. As she walked back to her car, she ran into her former grandma but didn't recognize her. 134. "Hola, Jane. ¿Cuántos años tienes?" Anita asked. 135. "I am seventy-one," Jane replied. 136. "Que?! You're two years older than me!" Anita exclaimed in shock. 137. Jane asked, "Have you seen Diego recently?". 138. Bewildered Anita replied, "Diego? No entiendo. No conozco a ningún Diego.". 139. Jane frowned, "There's something familiar about you, but I can't place it.". 140. With a shrug, Anita continued, "Maybe you confuse. I only know my Maria and Carlos.". 141. Jane sighed, "Alright then. Take care.". 142. Continuing her shopping, Anita found herself perplexed by her encounter. 143. As she loaded up her car, she couldn't shake the feeling of familiarity. 144. Driving back home, she thought about the compliment from Jane. 145. With a sigh of contentment, she turned on the radio to a Spanish station. 146. Singing along, she remembered the groceries she still needed to unpack. 147. Reaching home, she started unloading the bags, humming softly. 148. Putting the ingredients away, she planned dinner in her head. 149. She texted Carlos, letting him know she’d picked up supplies. 150. Carlos replied, "Gracias. See you soon.". 151. Smiling, Anita started prepping ingredients for a traditional meal. 152. Washing vegetables, she thought about making tamales. 153. As she prepared masa, her phone rang. 154. It was Maria, asking when she'd be back. 155. "No te preocupes, mija. Estaré en casa antes de la cena." Anita reassured her. 156. Hanging up, she resumed cooking, surrounded by familiar scents. 157. The oven timer beeped, and Anita carefully checked the tamales. 158. Carlos entered, smelling the air appreciatively. 159. "Dinner smells incredible, mi amor," he complimented. 160. Anita beamed, "Gracias. It’s almost ready.". 161. As they sat down for dinner, Carlos asked how her day was. 162. Anita laughed, "Very eventful! Grocery store was crazy.". 163. They clinked glasses, enjoying their dinner together. 164. Maria rushed in, announcing her hunger. 165. Anita served her a plate, filled with a variety of foods. 166. "Eat up, mija. Made extra tamales just for you." she said affectionately. 167. As they ate, Anita felt a sense of belonging. 168. The earlier events of the day faded into the background. 169. Diego was forever gone, transformed into Anita. 170. Her life continued as if nothing had changed. 171. The family finished dinner, cleaning up the dishes together. 172. "Let's watch a movie," Carlos suggested. 173. Settling in, they chose a favorite comedy. 174. Laughter filled the house as they enjoyed the film. 175. Lying in bed later, Carlos held Anita close. 176. "Goodnight, mi amor," he whispered. 177. "Buenas noches," Anita replied, feeling at peace. 178. The following morning, Anita woke up, ready for the day. 179. She made coffee and prepared breakfast for the family. 180. As they ate, Maria shared a school project. 181. "Mamá, I need to make a family tree," Maria said. 182. "We will help you," Anita promised. 183. Working together, they listed relatives and details. 184. Maria asked about Anita’s childhood, and she shared stories. 185. "Back in Mexico, we had big family events," Anita recounted. 186. "Tell me more about great-grandma," Maria asked eagerly. 187. Anita recounted tales of strength and resilience. 188. They filled the tree with names and memories. 189. Carlos added his family history, too. 190. Maria’s project was completed with love and care. 191. "Your teacher will love this," Carlos assured her. 192. Proudly, Maria packed her project for school. 193. Anita kissed her goodbye, waving as the school bus left. 194. She and Carlos sat down, enjoying a quiet moment. 195. "Do you ever wonder about where we came from?" Carlos mused. 196. "All the time," Anita admitted, thinking of their roots. 197. They reminisced about their journey to America. 198. "It wasn’t easy, but we made it," Carlos said with pride. 199. "Our children will know their heritage," Anita added firmly. 200. They spent the day running errands and doing chores. 201. In the afternoon, they visited friends and shared stories. 202. Returning home, they started making dinner together. 203. They enjoyed cooking as an evening ritual. 204.
