**6.** Carter’s mother, Debra Sullivan, is much older than Lindsay at 58, born March 10, 1965, 5’9”, 150 pounds. She has layered auburn hair styled into a voluminous blowout, and sharp blue-gray eyes.
**7.** Debra is getting ready for her 34th wedding anniversary dinner with her husband John.
**8.** Debra’s dress is an emerald satin gown, sleeveless, with a draped neckline, a fitted bodice, and a dramatic high slit up to mid-thigh, revealing her shapely, tanned legs.

**13.** As Debra applies fresh raspberry lipstick in the kitchen mirror, she pulls out $40 from her purse and sets it with a “Money for pizza, Noah & Carter!” note on the counter.
**14.** Carter’s dad calls him from outside. Carter leaves abruptly to help, and Debra leaves moments later, heels clicking as she shouts, “Don’t forget to order pizza, boys!”
**15.** Noah finds himself home alone for a while. Peeking at the counter, he eyes an enticing spread: a big bag of sour cream chips, a bowl of red licorice, two cans of root beer, and a platter of bite-size brownies cooling on a rack.
**16.** Curious, Noah wanders the tidy house, entering the elegant master bedroom.
**17.** He trips over a stray backpack and stumbles, kicking off his sneakers and socks—his feet land directly in Debra’s abandoned platform sandals.

**22.** He notices a framed photo on the dresser: Debra and John at last year’s anniversary, Debra in the same green dress, her hair perfectly styled, arm through John’s. He’s in a navy suit, white shirt, and silver tie. They beam, Debra holding her clutch purse, legs crossed elegantly at the ankles showing off her platform sandals.
**23.** Noah squeaks, “I don’t want to be Carter’s mom! I don’t want to be girly—she hates video games, and she’s so old! I hate makeup and nail polish and I don’t want to kiss his dad! I only like girls!”
**24.** There’s another photo: Carter’s grandma Lisa, laughing in a kitchen, a blue turtleneck, gray curls, gold glasses, and a string of pearls, stirring batter.
**25.** Noah, startled, knocks both frames onto the soft carpet as his changes accelerate.
**26.** Scattered about Debra’s room: a pair of black stiletto heels, tan ballet flats, studded wedge sandals, a folded sheer blouse, a navy wrap dress, a tiara, paisley scarves, a chunky turquoise necklace, and a stack of costume rings—all belonging to Debra, some tried on by Carter’s sister Sarah.
**27.** He lifts the corner of the covers, loosening them in his panic.
**28.** Noah flees to the kitchen, feet clomping, tripping and sending chips, licorice, cans, brownies, the $40, and the pizza note falling to the tile.

**40.** Thoughts flicker—Noah’s favorite superhero game replaced by party planning, lipstick preferences, babysitting. He feels desires shifting, wants soft and mature.
**41.** He throws the purse onto the tile, kicks off the platform sandals, rips off a ring, crying, “No, no, no! This isn’t happening! Help! Somebody! Please, someone!”

**43.** He sprints into Carter’s room to try and save himself with video games, clinging to childhood.
**44.** He grabs the controller, trembling, as the system seems to load eternally.
**45.** A draft caresses his legs—he’s still in the high slit dress.
**46.** Each pulse, memory fragments tear away. One by one, Mario stages, Sonic, Zelda, all vanish in his brain.
**47.** He realizes: ninety seconds and he won’t even know what these buttons do.
**48.** The system loads at painstaking slowness.
**49.** He sits, knees together, fighting the urge to cross his legs, as his posture softens, his hands hold the controller delicately.
**50.** “Okay, just…load already…” he whispers, then, “Come on, darling, almost…” catching himself, blushing.
**51.** “I—uh, want to—ugh, just let me start the little—oh, sweetheart, just work for mommy…” Each sentence, a little more ladylike, motherly panic rising.
**52.** Time ticks: 10, 9, 8, 7…
**53.** He begs, “I n-need this, oh dear, no, please…” his voice breathier, polished, almost scolding like a mom.
**54.** Game finally flashes to life—one second too late.
**55.** In that final heartbeat, Noah ceases; only Debra remains.
**56.** Debra blinks at the unfamiliar controller.
**57.** “Why on Earth is this thing out? I thought I told Carter to put it away after last night…”
**58.** She stands, surveys the mess—jewelry, purse, snacks.
**59.** “Wait, wasn’t I just getting ready for dinner with my Johnny? Debra, you old softie, you’ve still got it. And mmm, my ‘Mr. Tall, Dark, and Seriously Handsome’—he just can’t resist these earrings and my new platforms!”
**60.** “Sheesh, what a disaster. Must be Carter. Or was Noah here earlier?” she muses, crossing to the stairs in her bare feet, calling, “Boys, sweeties, are you up here? Carter? Noah? Darlings?”
**61.** At the top, darkness looms. Uneasy, “Johnny? My Love Muffin?” she yells, only silence replying.

**67.** She stands tall, throws the caramel purse over her shoulder, struts to the mirror.
**68.** She reapplies lipstick, dabs powder on her nose, fluffs her hair one last time.
**69.** “Debra Sullivan, you ageless minx, that man is lucky to have you. Those earrings, the shoes, the purse—he’ll be dazzled.”
**70.** She twirls, checking every angle. “Okay, what did I forget: earrings, bracelet, necklace, rings, shoes, purse, lip—oh! Cell phone!”
**71.** Smiling in the mirror: “You made this home, raised these kids, survived Carter’s video game obsession and Sarah’s TikTok dances. My generation made things work—we had jobs, we had style, and we didn’t need filters to look good.”
**72.** She dreams aloud, “Can’t wait for the salmon tartare, old vine Chardonnay, and three—no, four—French 75s. You only get an anniversary once a year!”
**73.** Her phone rings—Johnny’s face pops up.
**74.** “Johnny, finally! I was starting to think you bailed on me for bowling night!”
**75.** His voice crackles: “You okay? You didn’t answer my first call.”
**76.** She squints. “You called earlier?”
**77.** Debra quickly checks her missed calls, frowning at her own confusion.
**78.** Outside, Johnny’s sedan glides to a stop.
**79.** Debra freezes, then lights up—“I love being a lady! Can’t wait to go out to my sexy husband! Hope he likes my earrings and my platforms—he always laughs when I poke his hairy legs with my toes. Oh, darling, I need a kiss from him right this second!”
**80.** She slips out the front door, locks it, hurries down the walk, long stride confident, emerald dress swinging, heels glinting in late sun.
**81.** Johnny—broad-shouldered, graying and still handsome—gets out and grins.
**82.** He takes her hands, warm and strong.
**83.** She looks down, up, “Mr. Sullivan, you had better be ready—these shoes don’t wear themselves!”
**84.** He laughs, sweeping her up, “Of course, my Queen Emerald.”
**85.** Debra giggles, puckering her perfectly made-up lips.
**86.** Johnny grins playfully, “You want a kiss on the lips?”
**87.** “You know I do!” She wraps her legs around him, showering his jaw with kisses as he spins her in the setting sun.
**88.** Their laughter fills the warm air as the door closes behind the old life and a new night begins.

He feels desires shifting, wants soft and mature. **41.** He throws the purse onto the tile, kicks off the platform sandals, rips off a ring, crying, “No, no, no! This isn’t happening! Help! Somebody! Please, someone!” **42.** Debra’s phone rings—husband's contact flashes ‘Hot Stuff’. Noah-as-Debra panics, doesn’t answer. **43.** He sprints into Carter’s room to try and save himself with video games, clinging to childhood. **44.** He grabs the controller, trembling, as the system seems to load eternally. **45.** A draft caresses his legs—he’s still in the high slit dress. **46.** Each pulse, memory fragments tear away. One by one, Mario stages, Sonic, Zelda, all vanish in his brain. **47.** He realizes: ninety seconds and he won’t even know what these buttons do. **48.** The system loads at painstaking slowness. **49.** He sits, knees together, fighting the urge to cross his legs, as his posture softens, his hands hold the controller delicately. **50.** “Okay, just…load already…” he whispers, then, “Come on, darling, almost…” catching himself, blushing. **51.** “I—uh, want to—ugh, just let me start the little—oh, sweetheart, just work for mommy…” Each sentence, a little more ladylike, motherly panic rising. **52.** Time ticks: 10, 9, 8, 7… **53.** He begs, “I n-need this, oh dear, no, please…” his voice breathier, polished, almost scolding like a mom. **54.** Game finally flashes to life—one second too late. **55.** In that final heartbeat, Noah ceases; only Debra remains. **56.** Debra blinks at the unfamiliar controller. **57.** “Why on Earth is this thing out? I thought I told Carter to put it away after last night…” **58.** She stands, surveys the mess—jewelry, purse, snacks. **59.** “Wait, wasn’t I just getting ready for dinner with my Johnny? Debra, you old softie, you’ve still got it. And mmm, my ‘Mr. Tall, Dark, and Seriously Handsome’—he just can’t resist these earrings and my new platforms!” **60.** “Sheesh, what a disaster. Must be Carter. Or was Noah here earlier?” she muses, crossing to the stairs in her bare feet, calling, “Boys, sweeties, are you up here? Carter? Noah? Darlings?” **61.** At the top, darkness looms. Uneasy, “Johnny? My Love Muffin?” she yells, only silence replying. **62.** Flustered, she hurries down, gathers her jewelry: 1. Twists earrings, admiring shine 2. Clasps tennis bracelet—“Gift from Mom, can’t forget this.” 3. Dangles the pendant, fastens the clasp 4. Stacks her rings, giggling at the glint 5. Slides her wedding ring home, feeling secure **63.** She grabs her platform sandals, sits cross-legged by the door. **64.** “Ah, shoes, you beauties—how you make these gams look twenty again!” **65.** Left sandal: 1.

Twists ankle for effect 10. Stands, posing **67.** She stands tall, throws the caramel purse over her shoulder, struts to the mirror. **68.** She reapplies lipstick, dabs powder on her nose, fluffs her hair one last time. **69.** “Debra Sullivan, you ageless minx, that man is lucky to have you. Those earrings, the shoes, the purse—he’ll be dazzled.” **70.** She twirls, checking every angle. “Okay, what did I forget: earrings, bracelet, necklace, rings, shoes, purse, lip—oh! Cell phone!” **71.** Smiling in the mirror: “You made this home, raised these kids, survived Carter’s video game obsession and Sarah’s TikTok dances. My generation made things work—we had jobs, we had style, and we didn’t need filters to look good.” **72.** She dreams aloud, “Can’t wait for the salmon tartare, old vine Chardonnay, and three—no, four—French 75s. You only get an anniversary once a year!” **73.** Her phone rings—Johnny’s face pops up. **74.** “Johnny, finally! I was starting to think you bailed on me for bowling night!” **75.** His voice crackles: “You okay? You didn’t answer my first call.” **76.** She squints. “You called earlier?” **77.** Debra quickly checks her missed calls, frowning at her own confusion. **78.** Outside, Johnny’s sedan glides to a stop. **79.** Debra freezes, then lights up—“I love being a lady! Can’t wait to go out to my sexy husband! Hope he likes my earrings and my platforms—he always laughs when I poke his hairy legs with my toes. Oh, darling, I need a kiss from him right this second!” **80.** She slips out the front door, locks it, hurries down the walk, long stride confident, emerald dress swinging, heels glinting in late sun. **81.** Johnny—broad-shouldered, graying and still handsome—gets out and grins. **82.** He takes her hands, warm and strong. **83.** She looks down, up, “Mr. Sullivan, you had better be ready—these shoes don’t wear themselves!” **84.** He laughs, sweeping her up, “Of course, my Queen Emerald.” **85.** Debra giggles, puckering her perfectly made-up lips. **86.** Johnny grins playfully, “You want a kiss on the lips?” **87.** “You know I do!” She wraps her legs around him, showering his jaw with kisses as he spins her in the setting sun. **88.** Their laughter fills the warm air as the door closes behind the old life and a new night begins. --- *Let me know if you’d like more from the story or specific moments expanded upon!*
