Katie looked at the 45 year old blonde woman. Marissa was in pretty good shape for age .with only a little bit of cellulite around her hips and legs. "I bet you were a real cute kid," Katie said as the ring began to glow. "What was that kiddo," Marissa asked looking at the young girl. "Oh nothing," Katie said. "Just wish they were kids my age at the beach."
Marissa smiled. The 42 year old understood Katie's longing she remembered what it was like growing up. She had always been a very sunny child and tried to be friendly with the kids in her neighborhood. Unfortunately her parents lived in a neighborhood where the majority of the kids were older than her. It had been lonely for her in her neighborhood as kids 3 and 4 years older than her didn't want to be bothered with her. School had also been difficult, Marissa was the most intelligent girl in her class. It made the other kids jealous and view her as odd. It didn't help when she got to high school and blossomed into a beautiful young girl. The other girls were jealous of her intelligence and beauty bullying her unmercifully. It wasn't until college that things began to change. She finally began dating and eventually lost her virginity at 20. Unfortunately for Marissa the scars of childhood ran deep. She had never established any true girlfriends and had focused solely on her studies. Her work had been her life and Eric, Robert and Nancy had become her closest friends.
The 38 year old woman stared at her well manicured hands. They seemed a little smoother than usual. She had thought that there were a couple of liver spots on her hands but those seemed to have vanished. "Whatever they did last time I got my nails done must have been good," she thought. "My hands look smoother than usual." She shrugged and looked out towards the water.
Katie continued to watch the woman regress. Now only 35 the small amount of cellulite around her thighs and stomach had vanished leaving a trim and attractive woman. Marissa's golden blonde hair had regained its luster and her skin had had begun to glow again. Katie thought that the woman obviously worked hard to maintain her appearance. As she approached 30 the fine lines around her eyes vanished leaving flawless skin.
"Do you like your job," Katie asked. The 28 year old woman looked at Katie and smiled. "I love this job,"she said excitedly. "It's been the best 6 years of my life." "What about friends," Katie asked. Marissa's smile faded as she looked at her unchanged colleagues. "There really nice but their a little old." she said sadly. "I'm used to it though. I didn't have a lot of friends growing up and those that I did have were alot older than me. We all work really well together and they took me under their wing. I couldn't ask for a better group."
Katie felt a little sad for the 25 year old woman. Katie originally had thought the woman was a little arrogant. After talking with her though she was just guarded from having a sad childhood. It must have been tough growing up with no friends. "That won't be a problem this time," Katie thought as Marissa slipped back to 22.
The changes happening to Marissa were beginning to accelerate. Marissa was now absentmindedly tugging on her black one piece bathing suit. The suit still fit her pretty well but seemed a little loose around her stomach, which had become flat and lean. Marissa's c cup breasts were still full and had lost the sag she had in her 40's. They were becoming perkier by the moment but Katie knew from previous experience it was only a matter of time before they deflated.
As Marissa became 19 Katie could see her face taking on a more teenage experience becoming rounder with a cute button nose. Her golden blonde hair was shining brighter than before but was losing it's volume that she had in her 20's and 30's. As she slipped from 19 to 18 Katie began to notice her shrinking slightly. Her feet were slowly shrinking leaving marks in the sand. "Almost there," Katie said quietly.
"Did you say something," a 17 year old Marissa asked. "No," Katie responded quickly. "Oh," 16 year old Marissa said sadly. "I thought you were talking to me," The 16 year old pushed her golden blonde hair out of her face. Katie looked down at the girl. She had shrank about 4 inches so far. Her feet that had been resting off her towel now rested on the towel. Only her toes now touched the sand. Her breasts, which had been full c cups had been reduced to a pair of perky b cups. The bathing suit she wore now looked a little loose on her diminishing frame. Marissa now attempted to readjust the straps that slipped off her shoulders. Finally the confidant look Marissa had in he 40's had been replaced by a withdrawn and shy teenager.
As Marissa became 15 she shrank another inch. Marissa's toes no longer touched the sand and rested on the blanket. Her shoulder length hair was straighter and less voluminous than before. Her eyes showed a girl with a lot of youthful energy but her face showed a girl who looked to be very withdrawn. As she became 14 puberty reversed itself very quickly.
Marissa shrank 3 inches when she became 14. The curves she had faded quickly becoming barely flared. Her perky b cups shrank down to a cups. Her face took on a childish and angelic look. Marissa was a beautiful child but still had a very shy look on herself. As Marissa became 13 puberty reversed itself even more. She shrank another 2 inches and her breasts were reduced to a couple of soft mounds the size of baseballs. Finally her hips lost most of their curves vanished leaving her with barely flared hips. "Guess she was a late bloomer," Katie thought as Marissa became 12 leaving all signs of puberty behind. Marissa was small for 12, which is why she probably had so much difficulty making friends. From what Katie could see Marissa was probably only an inch than her. As she reentered her 11th year Katie could see Marissa was probably the same size as her.
"What grade are you in," the very shy 11 year old asked. "I'm in the fourth grade," Katie answered. "What about you," Marissa averted eye contact and stared at her well manicured nails. It struck that they were painted. Her mom wouldn't allow her to get her nails done saying she had to wait until she turned 13. Marissa glanced up at the 10 year old girl. It what very nice that the girl had come to talk to her even if she was younger. Marissa she her head. This girl wasn't older than her they were the same age. Marissa looked at the girl and smiled. It was nice to have a friend even if was only for the day. "I'm in fourth grade too," she answered.
Katie smiled. The regression was complete. Marissa seemed no worse for wear. The black one piece she wore was quite large on her with one of the straps having slipped off her shoulders. Her golden blonde hair cascaded just past her shoulders but was thinner than before. She now stood a couple of inches shorter than Katie. Finally Marissa had lost the confidence she had gained as a successful businesswoman. Now she was a painfully shy girl desperately trying to make a friend her own age. Marissa smiled at Katie, her memories were adjusting to this new reality.
"I'm here on a business trip with my... dad," Marissa said as she pointed to Robert. "I had a week off from school and he took me on his business trip. I like it here its a lot better than where I'm from." "Plus," Katie said cheerfully. " You made a new friend." Marissa jumped to her feet almost causing her swimsuit to slip from her tiny body. "Really," she said excitedly. "Do you really mean it." "Only if we can be the best." Katie smiled. Marissa jumped into her arms hugging Katie as hard as she could. Katie could hear the small girl sobbing quietly thanking her for being her friend.
"Your welcome," Katie said as she eyed the other three adults. She had plans for the rest of them but another thought entered her mind as she glanced at Robert and Eric. With a smile she made her wish.
