Rachel and Mary begin to switch ages
by: Unknown
As Rachel let go of Mary's weathered hand she felt a bit strange and sat down.
"What's wrong dear?" the old woman asked with a grin.
"Nothing...I guess..just feel strange all of a sudden." Rachel replied, feeling a little unsure of herself.
"Well, not to worry dear, this place can have that effect on people. By the way, you arrived just in time for lunch."
"That sound great," Rachel told her, and the wondered if she were seeing things. She could swear that Mary's hair...
but that wasn't...her hair was getting grayer... and not just white, and Mary seemed to be sitting up straighter..."
"You look confused dear, is there something you wanted to know?"
"It seems...my voice," she spoke, and noticed that it seemed different somehow.
"What about your voice?" Mary purred as her hair began to show shades of auburn and her breasts perked up,and her wrinkles lessened more, as she passed 65 and headed
backward.
"It seems different, and you...you look..." Mary sputtered as she passed 40, her body feeling like it was adding pounds in places, and like gravity was starting to
pull things in unwanted directions.
"...younger? Why, that just isn't possible though...is it?" she laughed, as she hit 55, and the two women closed in and neared each other in age.
"and I feel like I'm getting...dare I say it, older?"
"I guess in your case wisdom does come with age," Mary grinned, and handed the 48 year old matronly Rachel a mirror.
"My hair is going gray, and I'm getting laugh lines and crows feet and..."
"You'll get used to it sweetie," the older Mary chuckled, as she grabbed back the mirror to note her returning youth.
