While things had been going very well with Marilyn and her family, the situation outside the study was not going very well at all. None of the girls had regressed anymore, which was a good sign that things were looking slightly up. However, Maddie and Kumi's arguing had been going on for a little while now and there seemed to be almost no signs of stop.
"How's being the school's top mean girl going for you? I bet you won first prize." Kumi sneered.
"Yeah? tell me is it hard to tell you and your family apart at a family gathering? I bet it is." Maddie fired back.
"Slut." Kumi said to Maddie.
"Skank." Maddie said to Kumi.
"You are such a....!" Maddie and Kumi almost shouted at each other, if it weren't for a small mousy voice speaking up to them.
"Um, excuse me?" Maddie and Kumi both looked to see that it was Denise who had spoken and they were shocked at Denise had usually been the quiet one here.
"Please girls, don't fight. Fighting with each other never solved anything for anyone. We also have young ones to think of and how they'll see us when they grow up. So I plead with you again, don't fight. Make peace, go in love." Denise said as she held Maddie and Kumi's hand. Both of the young girls felt very compelled to make up with each other, both because of Denise's words and in part her beauty.
"I'm...I'm sorry for calling you all those horrible names." Maddie apologized.
"I'm sorry as well. I hope we can be good friends following this." Kumi wished as she and Maddie hugged each other and both grew back to their normal ages as did Denise who was just as beautiful but now seemed more confident.
Samantha and Kellie now watched as their friends, Mary Elise, Mika, and Claudia all grew back up to their regular ages as well. When Mika and Claudia became their right ages again, they began to make out like they hadn't seen in each other in a while.
Kellie and Samantha were relieved that Maddie and Kumi's fued was over, but she noticed that Tanya, Missy, and Amber were still around 16 years old and hadn't changed back in anyway yet. What's more interesting was that Amber, the gothic one, seemed to be flirting with Tanya and Missy.
"Great, now we have to resolve that somehow." Kellie sighed shaking her head.
