Carmen looked closely at her face in the mirror. Her makeup didn't need any touching up. She admired herself for a second. She still looked great, even with the weight she had gained from her pregnancy. The problem was time. The twins ate up so much time. She hadn't enjoyed herself in ages.
Lola was staying at her grandparents, so she didn't have to worry about her. She just had to take care of Will. Still, one baby was time consuming enough. Couldn't she fix this? She had the app. She pulled the phone up from her purse. The app showed her a sentence she could edit.
"A 22 year old mom is in the bathroom with her 4 month old son."
Carmen had a thought. She could grow Will up. If he were older, he could handle himself. Then she would be free to have her fun. How old? Sixteen should be enough for him to look after himself, but then she would have a son six year younger than her. It gave her another idea. With a six year age difference, why not make him her sibling? That would also remove all of her parental responsibility. Perfect! She started by changing "son" to "brother". Then she edited his age. The new sentence was:
"A 22 year old mom is in the bathroom with her 16 year old brother."
The change was sudden. Carmen saw a teenage boy standing where baby Will had been. He was somewhat tall, a little taller than her. He had a unruly mop of red curly hair. A decent looking boy, maybe a little gangly. To think this was little baby Will. Well, not anymore. This was her brother now. She smiled. This was perfect. She should do something similar to Lola later on. She could actually escape the hell that is parenthood.
Meanwhile, Will didn't find it any strange being a sixteen year old boy. As far as he knew, he had always been sixteen and Carmen had always been his older sister. Though, he could still remember using the app. In his memory, he had messed with his sister, editing the field to make her a mom.
Will had to get his hands on the phone again. Though, at the moment, he was getting bored standing in the bathroom.
"Sis, are you done?"
"Yeah, uh, sure." Carmen answered, seeming distracted.
The two siblings walked out of the bathroom. They barely walked around the mall before they heard someone calling for Carmen.
"Yo Carmen! Is that you?"
The siblings turned around to see a man waving. Carmen recognized him. They went to the same high school. More importantly, he looked pretty handsome now. He must have started working out a lot more since she last saw him.
"Dylan! It's been so long!" she squealed.
Will watched as his sister rushed up to this Dylan guy. They enthusiastically spoke together, Carmen acting all sweet and flirty. Will snickered. His sister was always like this. She acted nice towards boys at first, but that never lasted long. Once she got together with someone, they had to endure her bitchy personality. None of her relationships lasted long for that reason.
While watching them, Will's eyes were drawn to his sister's body. It was strange how Carmen didn't notice her extra weight. His eyes lingered on her chest. Much of the weight had settled on her boobs, adding to their already large size. He felt himself grow a hard. It might be a little dirty to get aroused by his sister, but he couldn't help it, not with how hot her body was. Sometimes he wished they weren't related, so that he could fantasize about her guilt-free.
Enough staring. Will had to figure out how to get a hold of the phone. He had an idea that might work. He walked up to Carmen and Dylan.
"Achoo!" he fake-sneezed into his hand. "Um, Carmen, can I have a tissue?"
"Sure, whatever. There are some in my purse." she told him. She then quickly got back to speaking with Dylan.
Will looked trough her purse. He found it. He had the phone. He had to act quickly. He had to make a change before Carmen noticed it being gone. He pulled the app up. There was a sentence there describing his situation.
"A 16 year old boy is watching his 22 year old sister flirt with a 22 year old man."
He wondered what he should edit.
