"Okay, I'll pick Cherry" Maria decides. She knows that if she drinks it whole, she has to grow up again, but it was worth it to her. Maria didn't even hesitate once opening it and chugs it faster than she's chugged any can of soda in a long time. It takes immediate effect as in seconds, Maria has already lost three years. She was now shorter than her parents, having passed both in height at 16(she grew to 6'1" and got her father's genes and her father stood 6 foot even). Her chest felt lighter as she continued to get younger, now sitting at 13(and thus her bedwetting would return). Maria's world was getting much bigger, and she was soon about to leave puberty behind at 10. She slips into single digits and out of puberty and sits at 8 years old. Her parents looked like giants to her, and would continue to look bigger, only ceasing when she reached her target age of 5. Her clothes didn't last very long and now she was nude to her astonished parents
"Whoa, I'm so small" Maria says with a gap-toothed grin. Samantha was the first to react and picked up the youthened Maria. Richard also comes over, putting his hands to Maria's head, still trying to grasp what she had done.
"I can't believe you're a little kid again, Maria. This is amazing!!" Samantha says, a bit teary eyed seeing her little girl at this age again.
"Indeed. I think we should go shopping for some clothes for her" Richard says.
"I MAY have some of her old clothes. Give me a bit" Samantha says, and heads to the basement. Samantha wasn't one to hoard stuff and would get rid of any excess stuff she could as soon as she was able or remembered to. She does find a couple of clothes, which consist of a pink and green stripped shirt, pink shorts, a pair of plain white underwear and green sandals but doesn't find much else, and these could be a bit big on Maria but would have to do for now. Samantha comes upstairs to see Maria now being held by her father.
"I couldn't find much, but I did find these" Samantha says, now taking Maria to get her dressed. They weren't overly big on her, maybe just a bit loose on her but she could grow into these, and then remembered this was Maria's favorite shirt from this age.
"Hey, I can fit into this again" Maria says with a smile, now enjoying having her favorite shirt on again.
"Now, what would Maria like to do first? Clothes shopping? A trip to the park?" asks Samantha. Maria knows she'll eventually need new clothes for this age, but the park sounds so tempting. She also was thinking about ice cream.....
