Chapter Description: As the two couple enjoyed themselves, their bodies continued to regress further into their teen years.

Part 2: Young Love

Down at the pier by the beach both Michelle and Thomas kept walking down the boarded floor passing through a couple of stores and stands. They were holding hands together just like when they were newly weds and are enjoying the moment together without any interruptions. Michelle was still wearing her string bikini, wedge sandals, sunglasses, and her sunhat while her husband kept his swimsuit boxers, Velcro strap sandals, and sunglasses. Of course they decided to leave their shirts behind because they want to show their perfect tan in front of the public to watch in awe. It felt when they were once newlyweds when they were both 24 and 25.

In fact, they both felt like it. For some strange reason, they’ve getting some extra energy in their bodies they thought they never had. They haven’t felt like that since they were working both at work and at home. They both have an extra kink in their step as Michelle sways her hips very sexily so all the boys do a double take. She then looked at her husband and smiled. “Are you enjoying yourself sugar?” she said in a very seductive voice. Thomas looked at her and answered, “I will be as soon as find someplace to get us entertained.”

To that end, Michelle rested her head on her husband’s muscular shoulder and sighed. “Oh Thomas,” she said, “I’m so glad you took me here to the beach. It’s so beautiful.” Thomas smiled at his wife, but then he remembered something. ?Did Michelle said that she wants to go to the beach on vacation?’ he thought. But he decided that it must’ve come from another girlfriend and agreed with his wife. “You’re welcome sweetie. Anything to make you happy.” Michelle rubbed his should with his face and said, “Oh Thomas. I just can’t wait to graduate college and be married. It will be a dream come true.”

Suddenly, something in Thomas’s head hit him as he looked at her resting her head on his shoulder. “Umm... Didn’t we just graduate and got married before?” Michelle just looked at his face with an odd expression and raised an eyebrow at him. “No you silly.” She said with a smirk and giggled a little, “We’re seniors in college, graduation isn’t until the next five months. Surely you haven’t forgotten about it.” Thomas tried to remember about it and knew that he and her wife... I mean, girlfriend went to separate colleges and were seniors. But for some strange reasons, he was having a hard time remembering graduating college or marrying Michelle. In fact, those memories were all a blur to him as his brain was clouding him to forget. Just as he was about to put the pieces together, his love started pointing at a particular building and said, “Hey, I got an idea! Why don’t we go see a movie?”

Thomas looked at where his girlfriend was pointing and saw a Loews Cinema not far from where they are. He then turned his head back to Michelle and smiled. “Sure, why not.” He said, “Nothing else to do around here anyways.” The two quickly walked to the theater and headed straight to the line where the box office is. While they were waiting, Michelle quickly untied both her swimming bra and bikini and adjusted it, noticing that they feel a little loose again. Thomas noticed it too and he also retied his trunks knowing that it’s loose too. After being in line for three minutes, the two approached the box office where a teenage boy with pimples was waiting for the next customers. Once Michelle and Thomas was in front of the window, the teenager looked at the two and said, “Welcome to Loews. Can I help you?”

While the two were busy looking at what kind of movie they want to see, the employee looked at their bodies and was amazed. In front of him between the glass window was a 24-year-old man with a strong physical frame with a building chest and killer abs and a 23-year-old woman with a tone and yet firm body with C-cup breasts and a curvy hourglass figure. But what he found most interested was that have such unique tans, something he never seen before. I mean he did see tanners that were fake coming from a few tanning salons and those that already have sunburns, but nothing like this!

“Excuse me.” The teenage boy snapped out of his trance when he heard Michelle and looked at her. “Yes?” he said all nervous, hoping that they didn’t expect them observing their bodies. “Can we have two adult tickets to see “Music and Lyrics” at 10:00 a.m.?” Michelle said as she pointed at one of the movies titles on the windows with the time dates. The teenage clerk nodded and went to the register to ring them up. Once he was done, he looked at the couple and said, “That will be $8.50. “Will that be cash or credit?” Michelle took out her wallet out of her purse and checked to see if she has a ten. Lucky for her that she has plenty of money for her beach vacation or it would’ve been trouble. While searching for a ten, she sighed and whispered to herself. “The price for two tickets is $8.50? Man the prices for the movies are getting high.” She finally found a ten and gave it to the employee through the slot of the window. The teen got the ten, put it in the register, and gave her both the chain and the tickets.

“You’re the show is in theater four. Enjoy the movie.” Michelle got the tickets then looked at her lover with generous eyes. “So, ready to see what this movie is all about?” she said. Thomas looked at his beloved girl, smiled, and answered, “As ready as I’ll ever be.” So with that said, the two entered the theater and watched their movie.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

After over an hour and a half, everyone left the theater when they finished seeing Music and Lyrics. The teenage employee looked at everyone from his box office window and could tell that everyone had a great time. But then he noticed something odd about one of the couples. He could’ve sworn this was the same couple he saw a little while ago when they purchased the tickets, especially that they have the same bathing suits. But what’s different about them is that they look a little younger, like in their late teens or something. After doing a double take and could’ve sworn that this is the same couple he saw a while ago, the teenage boy shook his head and rubbed his fore head. “That’s it.” he said, “Next summer, I’m going on a vacation of my own.”

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Meanwhile, both Michelle and Thomas were enjoying themselves as they walk down the boardwalk after seeing the movie. Michelle wrapped her arms around his lover’s right arm and rested on his shoulder, while his boyfriend looked on at this beautiful girl that’s next to him. But what they didn’t know is that while they were watching the movie, their bodies started to retreat into their teens. Michelle is already at the age of 18 and on the verge to graduate in high school as Thomas is 19 and is already in college. Their height had diminished to about an inch or two but they were still tall and their bodies have diminished a little bit. Even Thomas muscles seems to have loss a little toness but still has such an athletic build on his body.

While the two were walking, Thomas sighed and little and felt a little annoyed. Michelle looked at his worried face and decided to cheer him up. “What’s wrong Tommy?” she asked as she said his nickname he never heard when they were in their twenties. Her boyfriend looked at her and started rubbing the back of his head with his hand. “Well Michelle,” he said, “I don’t think I like the movie. It seems a bit too boring.” “Oh come on sweetie,” she said back to her boyfriend, “What was wrong with that movie? It was lovely and the reviews did say that it pluck the heart strings right out of your body.” Thomas just moaned and rolled his eyes around. “We’ve should’ve seen the new Ninja Turtles movie.” He stated, “Now that movie kicks some ass!” Michelle did that same thing her boyfriend did and said, “God, you’re so immature...”

Suddenly, a gust of wind came out of nowhere and blew from the northwest. That wind caused the Michelle’s sun hat, which was a little loose at the time, to blow away from her head and let her long brown hair flap wildly in the air. She looked up and saw her hat in the air and moving around. “Oh no! My hat!” She quickly let go of Tommy’s arm and raced to get her hat back. But while she was about to get it back, she immediately tripped and almost falls. She looked down and noticed her wedged sandals were loose as her feet look a little smaller then usual. “Arghh... Stupid shoes.” She tighten the straps on the sandals to make them a perfect fit, then looked up to see her sun hat long gone. She sighed, stomped her foot, lowered her head, and said, “Perfect...”

Thomas joined his girlfriend and placed his hand on her shoulder. “What’s wrong dear?” he said as Michelle looked at him with a sadden face. “My sun hat’s gone. I have to get a new one right now before my face turns into a red tomato.” Thomas could tell she was about to panic so he tried to calm her down. “Listen Michelle, you don’t need use that sun hat. You put that sun lotion on your face, so you won’t have to worry about your face burning. Besides, why do you need that hat anyways? You look pretty without that ugly thing on you.”

And he was telling the truth. Michelle’s face look fresher then before as her cheekbones didn’t look so high. She placed her hands on her cheeks and asked, “You think?” Thomas could only smile and nodded yes and his girlfriend smiled at the thought of it. Just then, Michelle’s stomach growled that made her startled. She then placed her hands on her stomach and said, “Boy, I must be very hungry.” Thomas also heard his stomach grumbling and said, “You’re not the only one. I think it’s time we get something to eat.” “And where do you think we should go?” asked Michelle.

Tommy looked around the pier to find a good eating establishment. Finally, he spotted a burger and malt shop not far from them and pointed. “Right there.” he said as his girl looked at the place and smiled some more. “Well that’s a good place to start.” she said, “Just remember I’m buying.” “Of course dear. Anything you said.” said Thomas as he gestured her forward, “After you.” Michelle corked an eyebrow at his polite manners as she adjusted her bathing suit and walked past him. “Boy I am so hungry today, I would eat a horse!” she jokingly said. “You and me both.” Thomas talked back as the two headed to the malt shop and have their lunch.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

After half an hour of eating, the young couple left the diner and walked around to look for some fun. But when they were eating, their bodies were racing backwards through their teens as Michelle hit 16 and Thomas hit 17. Michelle’s body was slowly, but surely eroding away as her waist started to loose it amazing curves and killer hourglass figure. Her arms and legs were thinning, but still obtained some of the tone and firmness of her muscles. But her continued to grow small as she was having a hard time walking in her sandals. She even stops for a moment to tighten them but her feet continued to shrink into them. Her breasts were rising up from her chest as they degrade themselves into a pair of perky B cups. Even her face beginning to loose some of its adult features, with her cheeks started to round, her nose shrinking, and her lips losing their fullness. Plus her hair, which was down her mid-back, reverted up between the top and middle of her back. Not only that, her bathing suit keeps on sagging every time she looses a bit of her adult body. She kept on tying the up the strings of her bikini top and bottom every five to ten minutes until they feel loose again.

Ask for Thomas, his body looks like it’s going through a backwards dance as well. His muscles have dwindle down each passing second as he almost looks almost like a teenage nerd then a strong muscle builder. His biceps weren’t as strong as it used to, his triceps are barely visible, and his pecks were half the mass as they were before. Even his six-pack ads were fading away, replacing with a small round belly from all the food he ate a few minutes ago. His face was also regressing as his cheek structure was rounded and his nose looks a tab smaller. His hair grew a little long, but it was odd that he cut his hair before going to the trip and now he grew out of it. He even has to tie his swim trunks over and over again because his waistline was growing smaller.

Even their height had dimished in the worse way. They were once 6’1 and 5’11, but now after one or two shrunk spurts, they were not 5’1 and 4’11. As they kept walking, Tommy patted his stomach that had all the food he had inside. “Mmmm... Mmmm... That was the best food I’ve ever had.” He said with his voice sounding like he’s crossing between an adult and a child. “I couldn’t agree with you more Tommy.” Said Michelle with a voice in a higher pitch then normal and was talking in a teenage slang. “I ate so much that I, like, ate a horse.” The two kept walking but Michelle didn’t help on to her boyfriend’s arm like before. Instead she holds his hand and was a little separate from him. It’s like her body language had changed dramatically when she’s growing younger. But the only thing that hasn’t been changed was their golden tan color from their sun tan lotion.

As the two walked, Michelle turned her head to see Tommy and said, “Oh Tommy, I’m so glad you’re here with me while our parents are at the beach. But don’t you think they will know that we’re together instead of us being someplace else? I mean, they have no idea we’re dating in private and who knows if they’ll be mad at us if they find out.” Tommy looked at her and noticed that she’s worried. He knows that both his and Michelle’s parents are at the beach for a family vacation and have no idea about their secret date their having. But the reality of it is that they came to the beach by themselves and no longer have no recollection of memory about it. Because not only their bodies have grown younger, but their minds as well. Though they still have their memories as teenagers still intact, the memories they had when they were once adults lost somewhere in their youthening brains or vanished into to puff of smoke. Even all their education and knowledge from their college years were gone and it would only be a matter of time before their high school education and teenage memories would disappear.

Trying to gather his thoughts, he looked at his girlfriend and said, “Don’t worry about it Michie. If our families find out about this, we’ll tell them the truth that we’re together. And no matter what happens, I will always be with you.” He gently kissed her on the cheek while Michelle, A.K.A. Michie, smiled and blushed.

After a few short minutes of walking, Tommy noticed a building that got his attention. “Hey, let’s go over there!” he said pointing to the structure. Michelle looked at where he was pointing and noticed that it was an Arcade area with a neon sign that says the name. Normally, she didn’t want to go to an arcade cause it’s a waist of time, but she couldn’t let her boyfriend be disappointed if she says no. So instead of saying that, she said, “Sure, why not. There’s nothing else to do around here lately.” Once again, Tommy kissed her in the cheek at her approval as the two walked straight into the arcade.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

In the arcade, the two were having a great time playing on games from fighting to adventure genre. Michie was kind enough to take out twenty dollars out of the wallet of her mom’s purse she borrowed, if she thinks it is her mom’s purse, to have enough tokens to play. But while they were playing, the changes in their bodied continued to dissolve away. Their height diminished a bit from 3-5 inches every fifteen minutes as the level of the gaming console went from above their chests to at their chest level. Once they both hit 15 and 16, the bodies were crossing the bridge between adulthood to childhood.

Michelle’s breasts continued to melt away like two scoops of ice cream as her arms and legs continued to thin, making them look more gawky then sexy. Her waist was losing more curves by the minute as her bubble butt kept deflating on her rear end with her bikini bottom joining the ride. And her hair reverted up to her upper back and was getting a shade lighter. Thomas was having trouble as well. Most of his muscles kept on getting lesser as his ads were completely gone. His kept growing till it stopped halfway across his neck.

Together, their faces continued to round as their noses were getting upturned, making them look more innocent. There was a pimple or two dotted on their faces, but a few freckles begin to appear at the bridge of their noses and slowly spread. Not only that, but their swim suit were getting too big for their pre-teen bodies, even their sandals couldn’t fit their small feet. But for some strange reason, everything seemed natural to them as their memories were either somewhere in the brains or evaporated out of existence. But the one thing that’s still the same was the perfect tan they have on their bodies and the tan lines were showing on parts of the skin wear their swim ware should’ve been.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

After half an hour at the arcade, the two got out of there two years younger when they got in. Michie was 14 and looking more like a preteen then a mature woman. The breasts were nothing more then a set of A cups that no longer contain her oversize top. She had very little curves left on her waist as her arms and legs look like limbs from a tree then pairs of firm and athletic build. Her light brown hair was creeping up to her shoulders as her face was getting rounder and her nose looking more upturned with freckles spreading up to her forehead. Tommy hit 15 and was not far behind her. All his muscles were all but gone and his face was like Michelle’s.

Both their heights diminished to 4’8 and 4’4 as their feet were too small to fit in their sandals. Instead they carried their shoes with their hands and walked barefoot on the wooden boards of the pier. Their body language changed again as they went from holding each other in the arms, to holding hands, to walking separately. It’s like they started out as a lovely couple, then newlyweds, then boyfriend and girlfriend, all the way down to just friends. “Man, that was fun.” Tommy said in a much higher voice, sounding more like a boy then a man. “Totally, I want to do that all over again.” Said Michie with a higher voice that matched that of a pre-teen girl.

While they were walking, they noticed something about their attire. They were starting to feel a little baggy and they couldn’t tie it cause their swimwear was as tight as they go. Michie’s laces from the back of her bikini top and on the sides of her bikini bottom were suppose to be small little knots when she was an adult. But now that she has a body of a adolescent girl, her knots were cartoonishly big and no matter how tight they were, they were still sagging. Tommy’s trunks were sliding down his hips and started to pull them up before it exposes his privates in front of the public. After looking at each other’s clothes they looked at each other and thought the same thing. “We should really get some new clothes for ourselves.” said Tommy, concerned about his oversize trunks. “Like, I totally agree with you Tommy.” Michie agreed, “I mean, I don’t know why our moms want us to wear these stupid clothes anyways. They are so wack!”

They started to walk and was looking for a shop to buy new clothes for their diminishing frames. After five to seven minutes of searching, Michie found a perfect place for them. She then pointed her finger at the store and said, “Hey, why don’t we try that store over there?” Tommy looked at where his friend was pointing and saw a Kids Gap store not far from them. A little confused, he looked at her and asked, “Are you sure you want to go there?” Michie looked at him and answered, “Of course I want to go there. It’s like, the coolest store in all the country and it has the types of clothing out age. Or do you prefer walking around in those oversized trunks all day?”

Tommy looked down at his trunks and noticed they were sliding down again. He immediately put them up before he was exposed while Michie giggled at what just accrued just a second ago. He looked back at her with his red burning a crimson red nervously smiled and said, “I guess a change of clothes would be a good idea after all. But are you sure it’s a good idea to pay with your mom’s money in the purse?” Michie looked down at the purse that has the wallet filled with money and sighed. She had already forgotten that this was actually her purse along with the rest of her adult memories, and now thinking that it’s really her mother’s purse. She then shrugged her shoulder and said, “I’m pretty sure mom won’t mind it I use her purse to buy something that fits me. Besides, if we don’t have enough money, I’ll just use one of her credit cards to pay. I’m totally sure she won’t notice it.” She then walked straight to the store with Tommy following her, not sure if this is a good idea or not.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Inside the Gap Kids store, the place was filled with customers buying clothes and employees helping people out. Michie and Tommy couldn’t believe how huge the place is, though in their point of view, with their heights going down, the world around them seems big. “Man, this place is too huge.” Tommy said, “How are we ever going to find what we’re looking for?” Michie looked around and spotted a female clerk no older then 22 with long blonde hair and crimson green eyes stocking up on some pants. Upon seeing her, she smirked and said, “We get some help, duh.” She then walked directly to the woman and cleared her throat to speak. “Um... Excuse me.” The woman turned around to see who was asking for help but saw no one. But when she looked down, she saw a pre-teen boy and girl of ages 13 and 14 wearing baggy swim ware meant for adults.

The female employee looked a little confused at this bizarre moment, so she decided to let it go and talked to them. “Why hello little girl.” she said in the most polite of voices, “How can I help you?” Michie smiled and said, “Well you see, my friend and I are on a summer vacation with our families and our parents gave us some clothes that were too big for us and we’re having a hard time wearing them. So, like, we were wondering if you have any swimsuits for us to wear our size.” The woman could tell that they are in need for some new attire, big time. But then she was wondering why would their parents made them wear clothes that were ten times bigger for their bodies to take? She then left that question alone and help the kids out by saying, “Why sure little girl, I can help you find some clothes that are more suitable for you. Where’s your mommy anyways? Is she with you?” Michie just shook her head and said, “Nope, she’s somewhere around the beach. So I borrowed her purse so I can pay for whatever I want.”

That made the woman’s eyes open wide in shock, as she couldn’t believe what she heard. “You mean you two are alone on the pier?” she asked hysterically as the two kids nodded. “I can’t believe you would do that! You’re parents must be so worried about you. Is there a cell phone in that purse? Should I call your parents and tell them where you are?” “Puleez...” Michie said, trying to calm the clerk down, “If my moms was sooo worried about us, they would’ve called the police and start searching already. Plus, like, I’m thirteen! So I’m old enough to take care of myself, duh! So do you mind getting us some clothes for us? I don’t want to be naked, like, all day.” Woman looked at the girl trying to hold on to her bikini bottom. Thinking it’s best to help them out, she sighed and said, “I’ll get you some clothes right away. Stay right here while I get some for you.” She rushed through the store to find some proper attire for them.

After a few minutes of waiting, the clerk returned with clothes on her hands. “Here you go.” she said, “Sorry for the wait.” She then gave the clothes to them as the two looked at them. Michie looked at her clothes and it was a neon pink one piece bathing suit, a small “Hello Kitty” T-shirt, and a pair of flip flops. Tommy saw his clothes and they were a pair of light blue swimming trunks with dark blue flowers imprinted on it, a small T-shirt with a Superman logo imprinted on the front, and a pair of leather sport sandals. After looking at their outfits, Michie looked at her and smiled. “Thank you miss.” she said, “But can you, like, please tell us where the dressing room from here.” The female clerk smiled back with a nod and said, “Why of course dear. It’s at the end of the store. Just make a left and go straight until you see a sign that says dressing rooms. You can’t miss it.” “Thanks.” Michie said as both she and Tommy headed to the dressing room. While they were walking, the woman looked at the two and noticed that they look shorter then before. She decided to ignore that thought and went back to work.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Back to the two friends, they made it into the dressing room to get a change of clothes. They went to their separate dressing rooms and took off their old baggy clothes. Michie removed her oversized swimsuit and looked at herself in the full-length mirror. Her body was doing a backwards dance through time when she lost fifteen years of her life and went from being a hot, sexy woman and wife to a skinny adolescent little girl. Her once tear shaped C-cup breasts were nothing more but a pair of small fleshy mounds as her puffy nipples changed color from a dark maroon to a dusky pink hue. Her waist showed very little hints of curves of her former hourglass figure and she could see her ribs showing. Her nether regions that had her full tuft of pubic hair were now bare with a few strands that were thinning and sinking back into her skin. Her arms and legs were short and thin and showed no sign of any adultly texture. Her hair was now close to her shoulders as it changed color to a shady brown. And her face was getting more childish, with her nose more upturned, cheeks rounding more, and freckles spreading all across her face.

Looking at the mirror, she knew that her body was developing and couldn’t wait to have a gorgeous body like all those super models. What she didn’t know was that she use to have that gorgeous body she use to have until he started regressing inside and out. But the one thing that didn’t change was her perfect suntan and tanning lines where her old bathing suit. After looking at herself, Michie started putting on her new clothes. She first slipped into her pink one-piece swimsuit, which felt a little loose so she adjusted it a bit, and stepped into her flip-flops. When she was done with that, she looked at the mirror one more time and admired the clothes she has one. “That’s much better.” she said, “Now I won’t have to worry about having my clothes feel loose.” After inspecting herself, she then put on her new T-shirt, picked up her purse, which feels a little heavy as of late, and left the dressing room.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Meanwhile, Tommy was in his own dressing room looking at himself in the mirror. Loosing his fifteen years of his life took a major toll on his body. All the dimensions of his muscles have all disappeared, leaving him as a gawky pre-teen boy. His chest was completely flat as he could see his ribs sticking out of his sides. His arms and legs more look like branches then tree trunks. There was no hair anywhere on his body except the thinning hair on his privates and the hair on top of his head. His face was getting more youthful by the minute, quickly joining his friend. His cheeks were rounding up, his nose was growing smaller, and freckles spread across his face. But like Michie, Tommy had the same tan with a tan line where his oversize pants use to be.

After seeing his young self, he turned to his new clothes and put the small swimming trunks and leather sandals. When he was done, he looked back at the mirror to get a good look at his new attire and nodded in approval. “I guess this will do for now.” He said as he picked up his old clothes and left the dressing room to join up with Michie.

/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\

Outside the dressing room, Michie was waiting patiently for her friend to come out, tapping her foot a lot. Finally, Tommy exited the dressing room and saw his friend waiting for him. “Hey there Michie.” he said, waving at her. Michie waved back and said, “Hey there Tommy. Took ya long enough. So tell me, how do I look?” She then did some poses with her new outfit like she’s a super model as Tommy liked the way she looks. “Not bad, not bad at all.” he said, “But you better wait a few more years until you decide to so some modeling.” He chuckled about that as Michie gave him a stern look after hearing that. She decided to let it slide and said, “C’mon, let’s pay for this get going.” The two then left the entrance of the dressing room and headed to the cashier.

When they made it to the cashier, the male clerk of 23 looked down and saw the two children with the pile of their old clothes they were holding with their arms and a purse Michie was carrying on her other shoulder. He knew that these kids want to buy clothes for themselves because the female clerk the helped them told him about it. He thought it was a little weird that some kids would want to buy some clothes, but he believed it’s normal. So he looked down at the two and said, “Is that all?” Michie and Thomas looked at their new clothes, looked up at the clerk, and said, “Yes.” “All right then,” said the clerk, “I’ll ring you in.”

Since he couldn’t use the scanner to scan the clothes the kids were wearing, he started typing down the product name of the outfits to find out the price and add them all up. Once he was done with the total, he looked at the kids and said, “That would be $77.49. Would that be cash or credit?” Tommy looks at Michie and was shock to hear what the guy said. “$77.49!” He shouted, “That’s a lot of money! We can’t afford to pay all that!” Michie looked at Tommy with a smile and said, “Not if mom have something in her purse we could use.” She removed the purse on her shoulder, placed it on the ground and looked through it. “Now where is it?” she said as she scurried through the contents trying to find what she’s looking for. After five to ten seconds she has found it and said, “Ah haw!” She then took out a wallet, opened it and then searched for something that could be of use to them. Upon searching, she took out a credit card and gave it to the clerk. “I hope this pays for everything.” she said as the clerk got a hold of the card, looked at it and said, “Of course dear. Give me a moment while I take the payment out of the card.”

He typed down the code for the account and took the money out of the card. When he was done, he gave the card back to Michie and asked, “Do you want to bag the clothes you’re carrying?” The two looked at their old clothes they’re carrying, reverted their heads back to the male clerk, and they both said, “Yes.” With that said, he took a out from under the counter, got the clothes the kids gave him, and put them in a bag. He then gave the bag to Michie and said, “Thanks for shopping at Gap Kids and have a nice day.” Michie grabbed the bag, and both she and Tommy said, “Thanks.” The two then left the counter and headed to the exit of the store. The male clerk watched the two kids leaving the store and could tell that they had some really nice tans. But he was wondering why they would want to buy their own clothes at a young age. And why would the female clerk told him that they had swimsuits that were too big for their bodies. He decided to forget that and went back to work.

Outside the Gap Kids Store, 12-year-old Michie and 13-year-old Tommy exited the store and continued walking together with their new swimwear and T-shirts. “You know what?” asked Tommy, “I had a blast! It’s been fun hanging out with you.” Michie looked at her friend and said, “You and me both. I mean, what else can I do then to spend my time with my family?” She then looked at a clock stand across the way and noticed it was 1:35 in the afternoon. “Speaking of which,” she said so abruptly, “I have to get to my parents soon before they think I’m lost or something.” “I agree with you Michie.” said Tommy, “If my parents find out I’m missing, they’ll kill me.” “Well I guess that means it’s good bye Tommy. I hope I see you again someday.” Michie said as she waved to him a farewell. “Don’t worry; we’ll meet up with you soon enough.” Tommy said as he waved as well, “See ya next time.”

Once they said their goodbyes, the departed their separate ways and started looking for their families. But what they didn’t realize was that they never really had families to begin with. When they were at the beach so early in the morning, they were a wedded couple in their late twenties. But after they put the special suntan lotion on themselves, they’ve regressed so far back, that they believed that they were with their parents. Not only that, but all their knowledge for the past sixteen years was gone in an instant, especially the knowledge in driving. And their friendship, it would only be a matter of time before they forget who each other were. So to make a long story short, they were truly, hopelessly, lost.
