Katie thought long and hard about her decision and finally came to a solution that everybody would be happy with.
"Okay..." Katie breathed before continuing her wish. "I wish Kumiko and Cole were 30 years old." Katie wished.
The other girls, Julia included, all now watched as Cole and Kumiko changed albeit slightly. Cole aged up only five years and he didn't change too much, but the girls noticed he had a little more muscle on him than he did before, probably coming from having served a few more years in the marines. Kumiko on the other hand regressed by five years, while she didn't look too much different, Mika could see where her aunt had changed in appearance including just a little bit of grey that had began showing in her hair disappearing and a few wrinkles on her eyes smoothing out on her skin.
"So uh listen....do you think...maybe we could meet up tomorrow?" The now 30 year old Cole asked rubbing his neck a little bit.
"You mean like....a date?" Kumiko asked very hesitant to use the word 'date'.
"NO! I mean, you could call it that....or we could just call it a 'get together'?" Cole suggested smiling while trying not to laugh at sounding awkward.
"Okay, that sounds good. We'll meet tomorrow for a....'get together'." Kumiko said as she now began writing down her phone number on a piece of paper.
"You can call me tomorrow around noon. I'm looking forward to it." Kumiko said handing him the number.
"Yeah, me too." Cole said making Kumiko blush a little bit.
"Aw, my little brother's all grown up." Julia said aloud to the other girls.
"Technically now he's the oldest." Claudia said as hers and Julia's memories now altered so that Cole was the first one born followed by Julia.
