Katie, Kellie and their new friends spent the afternoon surfing. While Claudia and Mika gave up after an hour and half the others kept going. Samantha seemed to greatly enjoy being able to surf again and giving Mary Elise the lessons she had always craved. The sun slowly began to sink into the horizon the girls decided to head back to Katie and Kellie's.
The trip back to Katie's home took longer than she expected as the girls biked down the road. Katie was tempted to age the group up so they could at least be old enough to drive. Katie decided against ageing the group though, their would be plenty of time to age the group during the sleepover.
The group finally got back to Katie and Kellie's as the sun was slowly setting in the horizon. The girls were all third but remained energetic as they gleefully burst in the front door. Kellie told everyone to leave their shoes by the front door as the girls gave their new friends a tour of the house. Mary Elise and her friends were impressed by the home as the girls began to rummage through the cabinets looking for something to eat. As Katie went to go upstairs Mika followed behind her. "Hey Katie can I talk to you real quick?" She asked. Katie nodded as the two girls began to go up the stairs.
"So Kellie doesn't remember being your mom even though their are pictures of her and you all over the house," she asked. "Yea," Katie said. "I know it's weird but the ring I guess hasn't affected my history, just what's going on now." Mika nodded as she looked at pictures of Katie and her mom. "Your not actually 12 are you," she said. Katie nodded and smiled. "Actually I'm seven," she said. "Mom, I mean Kellie, was 43 and a lawyer before I found the ring."
"So why make her younger," Mika asked. "I me a did you mean to make her this young. Did you want a twin siter or did you kind of get carried away."
Katie shrugged as the girls reached the upstairs. "I originally just wanted my ears pierced but Kellie said I was to young so I made myself a little older and her a little younger. After that I kind of wanted a sister, which eventually became my twin sister. So I guess I did sort of get carried away."
"I guess it makes sense," Mika said. "If it had been me I probably would of done the same thing. I just have one more question why did you choose me first. Mary wanted to go before I did."
"You look like you had a lot of fun when you were a kid," Katie said. "Mary seems so serious and level headed, I figured you'd be a lot more fun than the others."
Mika laughed at Katie's answer. "Well your right about that," she said. "I was kind of the wild one when we were kids. Claudia was the alpha, Mary was the mother hen and Sammy was the athlete. We got along well enough and I do miss those days but I always wanted to be more adventurous. I think we could have a little bit of fun with that ring of yours if your up for it."
Katie paused and turned to the young Asian girl in front of her. "So Mika what do you have in mind?"
