"Mom I think we should listen to grandma," Katie said calmly.
12 year old Lisa gawked at her daughter, shocked by what she was saying. "You cant be serious?!?"
"I've been thinking mom," Katie said. "What if this is happening not because you need to patch things up with grandma but because I do."
Lisa and Ann looked between Katie and Marilyn dumbfounded by this new theory. "B..but That doesnt make any sense," Lisa whined. "If this between you and my mom, then why am Ann and I getting progressively younger."
Katie rubbed her chin thoughtfully as she now looked at her family. "I think your mom might of influenced this wish somehow," she said. "She wants to feel usefull again. Unfortunately me amd her have some unfinished business to discuss."
"And what business is that,"a 41 year old Marilyn asked.
"Grandma," Katie said coolly. "You disowned my mom after she came out to you. That had a great effect on how things are. Your getting what you want once again by turning Ann and Lisa into children but you and I need to sit down and talk."
Marilyn smirked as she now looked at her granddaughter. "Your definetly your mothers daughter," she said. "Your mother was always so rational when it came to things."
"So..so whats going to happen to us," Ann asked.
Katie looked at her aunt, a sad look forming on her face. "Sorry Aunt Ann," she whispered. "But im pretty sure uou and Lisa will just keep getting younger until you become infants."
"That stinks," Lisa grumbled folding her arms.
"Oh it wont be so bad," Marilyn said cheerfully.
"Dont get too cocky grandma," Katie said coolly. "Your going to keep getting younger too. Even after Ann and Lisa become babies again it wont stop. That is until you realize how much you hurt mr and my mom."
Marilyn frowned as she looked herself over. She was currently 41, her body was inching backwards losing its matronly look while the grey in her auburn locks had all but vanished. The idea that she would gradually deage back to infancy seemed laughable. If all she needed to do was listen to Katie and apologize then it would be quite easy for her to accomplish.
"Okay Katie I am looming forward to this," she smiled. "For right now though, I want to finish this dinner."
"Mom," Lisa exclaimed. "Can you just sit and talk with Katie. I dont want to get any younger."
Marilyn smiled warmly as she placed her hand gently on her daughters shoulder. "We have time Lisa," she smiled. "Now come on you two. Ive dreamed of the day when my daughter's would help me cook."
Ann and Lisa groaned in frustration as they followed their mother. If finishing this dinner was the only way to return to normal they had no choice. The two sisters now hoped their mother would finish before they ended up in diapers.
