Nat Becomes a Birkenstock Girl

In the lively and bustling home of a 6-year-old named Nat lived an incredible story worth remembering. Nat's admiration for Benjamin, his 16-year-old brother, was unmatched. However, this story took an interesting turn when Benjamin's girlfriend, Phoebe, came over. On a hot summer afternoon, Phoebe and Benjamin were out lounging by the pool. Phoebe's brown Birkenstocks had caught Nat's attention, he found them quite different from his usual pool shoes. Innocently, he asked Phoebe about them. Phoebe, not wanting to indulge his fascination, dismissively told him, "Don't worry about those sweetie, I bought those for me and they're for girls anyway." Nat, however, couldn't shake off his curiosity. He asked Phoebe once again about her shoes, and this time, she was stern and clear: "Don't think about touching my shoes". Phoebe, believing Nat got the message, lay down on a chaise next to Benjamin, and both soon dozed off under the serene summer sky. Seizing this opportunity, the mischievous Nat stealthily grabbed Phoebe's Birkenstocks and went to his bedroom. Struggling to put them on his small feet, he laughed cheerfully as he stomped around, taking on the persona of Phoebe. Suddenly, something weird happened; as he removed the shoes, he saw his feet magically changed into those of an older girl, and he continued to grow altogether and gradually turned into Phoebe. Frightened initially, Nat's panic soon gave way to acceptance as he slowly graduated into the full being of Phoebe, complete with her glittery black polish and her pool bikini. As his body matured, so did his mind, and his memory, which no longer recalled his existence as Nat but only Phoebe. Feeling uncomfortable inside the house, the transformed Phoebe wondered why she was not outside with her boyfriend. She looked down and noticed the Birkenstocks she had earlier taken off were lying on the floor beside her. She remembered how Nat had disobeyed her and taken her shoes. Annoyed, she slipped on her shoes and went outside, ready to chide him for the mischief. But, on her way out, she was puzzled and she couldn't find Nat. All she saw was a sight that took her aback - Benjamin was waiting for her, but beside him was no other than another Phoebe - herself. From then on, the house bore the witness for the peculiar tale of not one, but two Phoebes.
