40. One sunny early summer Saturday, Anthony sat in the car, backpack on his lap and butterflies in his stomach.
41. Kayla reached over and squeezed his hand reassuringly.
42. “You’ll be fine, Tony,” she said, her voice gentle.
43. “Aunt Gloria loves having you over.”
44. Anthony nodded but stared out at the tidy, single-story house as the car rolled to a stop.
45. The white paint gleamed; the flowerbeds vibrated with color from marigolds and roses.
46. Anthony took a deep breath, opened the door, and stepped onto the cobblestone path to his aunt’s front porch.
47. Kayla kissed his forehead.
48. “Call me if you need me. I’ll be at work and will come by at 9.”
49. “Bye, Mom,” Anthony said, and she drove off.
50. Gloria greeted him at the door, standing on her tiptoes to ruffle Anthony’s hair.
51. “You’ve grown tall, Tony!” Gloria laughed, her voice surprisingly strong.
52. “Come on in!” she beckoned.
53. He stepped inside and was greeted by the comforting scent of lavender and warm vanilla.
54. Sunlight spilled onto the polished wood floors.
55. Gloria led Anthony to the kitchen, always the heart of her home.
56. “Harold’s at the art show until late,” she explained.
57. “It’s just us this evening!”
58. Gloria bustled around, making tea and chatting cheerfully about her day.
59. Anthony watched her, noting how short she really was compared to his mom and him.
60. After tea, Gloria showed Anthony the guest room.
61. There, he dropped his backpack, plugging in his phone.
62. Gloria gave him a tour of the cozy living room, lined with books and photos.
63. They ate an early dinner together – pasta and homemade bread.
64. Anthony cleaned his plate, complementing Gloria on her cooking.
65. She grinned and touched up her lipstick at the kitchen mirror.
66. The sun dipped lower; shadows began lengthening in the house.
67. Gloria yawned and said she was feeling tired and would take a nap before Harold came home.
68. “Call me if you need anything, dear,” she said as she disappeared into her bedroom.
69. Anthony wandered into the den, looking for something to do.
70. He found a basket of old toys from when his cousins were young and picked out a little rubber ball.
71. He began to bounce it absentmindedly, throwing it against the wall and catching it as dusk deepened.
72. At one point, he missed – the ball shot across the kitchen, landing far back on the counter behind the fruit bowl.
73. Sighing, Anthony walked around to retrieve it.
74. Along the way, by the front door, something caught his eye.
75. A pair of platform sandals sat on the mat: deep plum velvet on the straps, thick cork platforms, gold buckles.
76. The soles were imprinted with small foot-shaped indents.
77. Anthony frowned at the sight, wrinkling his nose.
78. “Eugh! How does Aunt Gloria even walk in these? She’s so much shorter than me, and these must be half the size of my feet,” he said, sticking out his tongue as he picked them up.
79. He set the sandals down next to where he stood.
80. Curiosity prickled as he slid his feet beside them.
81. “Might as well see how it feels,” he muttered, stepping in.
82. He teetered dramatically, arms flailing, and made a face in the narrow hall mirror.
83. “Look at me, Aunt Gloria,” he mocked, pitching his voice high.
84. But suddenly, as he got ready to step out of the sandals, a strange tingling washed over his feet.
85. “Ow!” he yelped, dropping the ball and grabbing his right foot.
86. Pain prickled up through his toes, then melted into a fizzing sensation.
87. Reflexively, Anthony extended his left hand out, palm up, peering at it like he expected to see something on his skin.
88. His feet began to change, toe joints popping and bones rearranging.

178. 20. The transformation left Anthony’s arms lithe, elegant, unmistakably his aunt’s.

217. The sandals stayed the same, still the plush velvet and cork platforms, now perfectly fitted to her small feet.
218. A chunky beige cardigan settled onto her shoulders.
219. The new clothes felt breezy and a little too ‘showy’ for a teen, but natural for Gloria.

228. Anthony’s memories blurred as the jewelry finished forming.
229. Flickers of his old life faded out, replaced by the comfort of decades past in this very house.
230. “Wow, these platforms are really comfy. Glad I bought them—I mean, they aren’t mine; I don’t even like these,” she heard herself say, expression puzzled.
231. She giggled, brushing her bobbed hair. “Well, my uncle is pretty handsome—uh, wait, no, what?”
232. Panic tickled the edges of her mind. “Stop, stop this, I don’t want to forget! I know who I am, I’m Anthony—I’m Anthony, not Gloria! Please, let me remember!” she begged, grabbing her head.
233. But her resistance wore away, until only Gloria’s long, full history remained.
234. “Yeah, he really is attractive, I love my uncle— I MEAN MY HUSBAND, and these are my platform sandals, not my aunt’s! I remember trying these on for the first time over thirty years ago and I’ve never regretted it and I have never regretted being married to him, neither!” Gloria blurted out.
235. Her eyes fell on the glimmering gold wedding ring resting on her left finger, her hand still half-extended. “What a beautiful ring Harold gave me. My husband’s taste is so wonderful and thoughtful. I wonder why I just called him my uncle a moment ago?”
236. Confusion furrowed Gloria’s brow. She looked around the quiet kitchen, still all dressed up. “What was I doing in here, anyway? I feel like I just wandered in,” she murmured, tapping the counter.
237. She stepped out and spotted the framed wedding photo of her and Harold, proudly placed on the living room display.
238. Gloria picked up the photo, smiling as she talked to it. “Look at you, Harold. I love this picture! You looked so dapper, and I was so nervous I could barely smile!” She placed a gentle kiss to his lips in the image, chuckling to herself.
239. As she stood, a warm contentment swept through her. The soft weight of the platform sandals and her jewelry felt right, and her heart fluttered as she glanced at the clock, awaiting Harold’s return.
240. The last traces of Anthony faded, and Gloria smiled softly, at home in her kitchen, living her ordinary, loving life—never suspecting that anything had changed at all.
