Bobby,Wendy, and the two goth grannies followed the Ice pirate social group inside.
As they did so, sophie guided them down the main hallway to a sitting room where everyone could relax.
"Oh my young uns, where are ma manners. Kin ah gits y'all sumpin ta eats er drink, eh?
"That would be quite nice,"Wendy commented," and would you mind if we turned on the TV. Some friends of ours are going to be on soon on a local channel."
"Oh go head, jes helps yerself dearies. Now, what was I doin? Oh yeah, goodies...senior moment and all ya know," and with that she disappeared into the kitchen.
As they turned on the TV, Bobby made a call to the restaurant where his firends were waiting, using his camera phone.
A moment later, jeanine picked it up and anwered," where the hell are you two, and how come your so much younger now? Ya know ya don't get back down with us at this table less your least 65 or more."
"We know," Bobby and Jeanine answered together."We are here at the sorority house still, and we'll be headed back over shortly. We're watching things right now on TV."
"Well, you just pay attention cuz it's all about to get going again."
Sure enough, Cassidy came back on the screen about that time to say,"This is Cassidy Yates, reporting live from the downtown TGI Fridays. In just a moment, myself and all here will who are younger than 50 will all age 20 years."
"Hmmm...sounds intersting Cassidy," the female anchor Lynda Childers back at the studio commented.
"Yes, should be quite the sight to see, you entering middle age and all," the male anchor Thom Hall added.
Sure enough, at that moment, Cassidy and the others at the place started their climb through time.
As she raced through her thirties, her rear end expanded and her breasts got a little larger.
"Are you all catchin this?" asked Monique on the camera phone.
"Yes we are," replied Bobby," and it is quite the sight. Though if Cassidy's coworkers keep on bugging her, we may be forced to do something about it."
By this time, cassidy had crossed the forty barrier, and showed fine lines on her face, crows feet around the eyes, her cheeks were plumper, a second chin showed, and she looked decidedly more rubenesque from the weight gain she had undergone.
"Oh my, there goes your figure Cassidy dear, best lay off all those chocolates and donuts you're so fond of," Lynda harangued from her anchors desk.
"May be right about that," Cassidy commmented, as she continued to age and finnally halt at 47. Wisps of grey showed in her light brown hair, and little half reading glasses on a beaded chain hung from her nose.
"Well, that looks like that's about it for now. As you can see, this is quite the place for the middle aged crowd at the moment. You two and others who happen to be watching out there, feel free to drop by anytime, first drink is on me."
"We'll consider it Cassidy," Thom commented," maybe we'll bring you a cane and some Depends for later."
"Very funny hon, I'll remember this. Just don't be surprised if I find a way to get you two roped into this as well. Anyhow, this is Cassidy Yates at age 47 signing off. Join us again later when I age another twenty years, at 67. Till then, have fun and keep watching or come down to experience this for yourself first hand."
The broadcast ended, and Stacey happened to appear on the phone saying,"Hurry up and get your butts back here. You've got some catchin up to do."
As they were about to hang up, Monique grabbed the phone and announced,"...and by the way, I like those gray hairs you all are sportin again. Nice touch."
With that, the conversation ended and Bobby and Wendy looked at each other to find they had gotten older.
"Seems we aren't exempt from the aging energies we gave the house," Wendy noticed.
"That would explain the graying beard I now have, and the increasing lines on our faces, not to mention how long your hair has grown."
Aboutthat time Sophie showed back up with a cart of refreshments, and turned on a closed circuit TV to check on the progress of the others.
