Mary looked blankly at her phone. Reality, itself? Like, she could bend the fabric of the world and change anyone or anything? And nobody else would ever be the wiser. The power was certainly, alluring.
"Hold on a minute... that's a lot to take in." Mary stuttered.
That's when her stunned expression began to morph. First to a neutral stare, but then into a full on smile. A slight chuckle emerged before she subconsciously covered her mouth in order to stifle her laughter.
"Um, you okay?" Jason asked, becoming extremely worried himself.
"Are you thick or something?" She asked through the last few chuckles. "This - heh - this is incredible! Aw, all my life I've been pushed around or looked over for someone 'better' than me. You know I've never married?" She rhetorically asked while Jason just stared, petrified that he was about to be turned into a goldfish or something.
"But no, I can make myself better than ever, show those pigs what for, make this world right." She laughed, practically giggling again at the possibilities.
Mary then turned to see a teenager sitting on a bench. He looked rather punk with a jean jacket and ripped pants. He had long, unkept blonde hair, a skinny physique and lots of piercings. He was also listening to music on his phone quite loudly. Mary smiled, picked up the phone and began to type.
"H-hey! Hey what're you-" Jason began to protest before his question was answered.
There was now a girl sitting in the boys place. Her outfit had more pink, the hair was longer, and the song changed, but otherwise not much had changed. Mary smirked, then started typing again. Jason looked up at Mary, ready to ask her to stop when he noticed she finished. Looking back again showed a very different person.
It was a petite blonde girl wearing a pencil skirt and a soft sweater. She had glasses and was instead holding a notebook which she was writing in. Jason was freaked out. He had been enjoying the power before, but now what was fun now scared him to his core. It wasn't as much fun when the reality changing powers were in somebody else's hands.
"S-stop. Just, change me back first okay?" Jason tried to sound intimidating, but coming out of the mouth of a little boy didn't sound anything but amusing.
"And what? Have a Uni-boy rip this from my hands? I don't think so young man." She smirked. "I am your mother now."
"You're not my mom!" Jason retorted.
"Yes I am remember? Or were did you have Japanese ancestry before as well?" She asked, snarking at Jason's change as she patted his head.
"You did this!" He snapped, as his fury began to look more like a temper tantrum.
"Tell you what, I'll help you out." She replied, quickly pulling the phone back up.
"What're you doing Mom!" Jason replied, suddenly feeling less angry. "Wait, what'd you do?"
"I adjusted your awareness level. You still remember the app, but I made it so that you can only remember changes if you hold the phone, AND I blocked your awareness of how you changed." She explained.
Jason wanted to argue, but he couldn't recall what was wrong. He knew he changed... somehow. Was he older? Younger? What had his mom done? He looked up, still worried but admittedly calmer.
"Huh, I guess that works mom... but, you'll fix it later right?" He asked.
Mary tried not to laugh at Jason calling her mom. "Of course honey." She then pulled up the phone again, which worried Jason immediately.
"You're not changing me are you?" She asked.
"Now Hayley, why would I do that? I promised I'll change you back... just later. I only removed some of you awareness cause I love you so much." Mary explained, happy with the gender and age change. Before her was an adorable little girl with a yellow sundress, long dark pigtails, and mary-janes to tie it all together.
"Okay Mommy." Hayley replied, giving a smile.
Mary reached out her hand, and the two began walking.
Mary was busy wondering what to do next. Her mind was flooding with new ideas. She now had a beautiful daughter which she intended to keep, at least for now, but did she have a husband now? She guessed it didn't matter since regardless she can have the pick of any man on earth. And the self improvement options, she always wanted to be taller or have bigger breasts. Revenge ideas kept popping up too! She thought about every entitled bitch from her sorority days that could really be knocked a peg down.
Hayley, meanwhile, was no way near convinced by her 'mothers' excuses. She loved her mom dearly, but knew she could be full of herself. Hayley was only 8, but was smarter than her mom gave her credit for. She still remembered that she was changed, just not how. Hayley was trying to come up with a plan to regain full awareness. If she could get to the phone, then she could change her mother without consequence as now to notice the change you just had to be holding it.
"Should I try to swipe it now?" She thought. "Maybe not, too many people I might not be able to run. Maybe when we go to pee? Ugh, no Mommy hates going in public bathrooms she'll never let me." She continued to think, unaware to the extent 'her' 'mother' had used the app already.
