"We go to the bridal shop and I try on several dresses" you said evenly. Harry looked at you, like she misheard you.

"Did you say you want to go to the bridal store?"

"Yes."

"Why? i'm not trying on a dress" Harry said, stamping her feet again, ignoring the fact she is already a girl in a pink princess cut dress.

"Because Bethany, 'mommy's' little girl wanted me to go to that store for a reason, and you know she doesn't do anything without a clear purpose. i want to know what that is."

"The purpose is for you to try on the most feminine thing I can imagine. I'm not going out like this!"

"But you will, young lady. I can't go and leave you alone with the baby. That means we take baby Sam with us."

"Can't you change her like she changed us?" Bethany pouted, seeing that she isn't going to get her way. You laugh. "I'd like to. She is fully aware of everything, you know. Luckily for her, lucy never taught me those types of spells. But that doesn't mean we can't dress her up in my old stuff."

"That sounds better" Bethany giggled. "i would like not to go though."

"sorry, but mom would kill me if I left you alone while you're like this. besides you're not going to be trying on dresses."

"You don't want to do this?"

"No. But I have to face this. I have to confront that all this may be my future." bethany remained quiet, as you pulled out a stroller for Sam, as well as some of your old clothes. after dressing her, you said to Bethany, "I found some of Mel and Hayley's old stuff."

"you think I can face them if I wear their clothes" Bethany said, a disgusted look on her face. You laugh, and head for the store
