I was twelve years old when I first started to age regress.
I didn’t know it, of course.
I didn’t know it for a long time.
At first, it was just little things.
Things that didn’t make sense until much later.
My sneakers felt too tight one morning, and then the next, they were loose.
I thought I had just gotten used to them, even though I’d only had them for a few weeks.
And then my pants were too short, and I thought maybe I was just growing a spurt, even though I was at an awkward age already and all gangly limbs.
But then my hands looked different.
And my face in the mirror.
It was as if I was slowly losing all the features that made me me.
It wasn’t until I went back to school after the summer break that I realized something was very, very wrong.
I looked younger.
And not just a little younger.
My best friend, Tim, walked right past me the first day back, and I had to grab his arm to stop him.
"Hey," I said.
He turned to look at me, and I could tell he had no idea who I was.
I stood in the hallway with him as other students rushed past us to their first classes.
"Remember me?"
I tried to explain.
"I’m…"
But then my bladder suddenly felt full.
Really full.
Like, I-just-peed-my-pants full.
It was a sensation I hadn’t had since I was a toddler, and I squeezed my legs together, trying to stop it.
Tim stared at me, confused, as I shifted from foot to foot.
"Hey, what’s wrong?"
I grabbed his sleeve and tugged him toward the nearest bathroom.
"I…"
My face burned with embarrassment.
"I don’t think I’m going to make it."
And then it happened.
Tim's eyes widened, and he quickly ushered me inside.
"Okay, okay, just breathe," he said, his voice a mix of urgency and concern.
As I stumbled into the stall, he added softly, "This isn't just about needing the bathroom, is it?"
Standing in the boys' bathroom, I gripped the edge of the sink.
The cold porcelain dug into my palms.
Tim hovered behind me, his presence a mix of comfort and anxiety.
I stared at my reflection in the mirror, and it was like looking at a stranger.
My face looked more like that of a fourth-grader than a twelve-year-old.
The fluorescent lights overhead highlighted how my school uniform hung loose around my shoulders, as if I were wearing clothes meant for someone older.
My hands trembled as I turned on the faucet, trying to wash away the evidence of my accident.
But the water seemed too hot, and the sink felt higher than usual, as if it were moving further away from me with each passing moment.
I tried to splash some water on my face, but it was like trying to reach something on a shelf that was just out of grasp. Tim moved closer behind me, his voice filled with concern.
"Hey, you okay?"
I nodded, not trusting myself to speak.
He reached over and grabbed a handful of paper towels, handing them to me silently.
I took them gratefully and tried to clean myself up as much as I could without drawing attention to what had happened.
Tim didn't say anything about the wet pants or the fact that I looked like I had just peed myself in public.
He simply stood there, watching me with worried eyes.
The sound of footsteps echoed outside the bathroom door.
It creaked open, and someone walked in.
My heart raced as I quickly ducked into an empty stall, pulling Tim in with me.
We both held our breaths as the newcomer approached us.
I peeked through the gap between the stall door and its frame, watching as an eighth-grader walked toward us. The eighth-grader stopped at the sink next to ours and started washing his hands.
I couldn't help but stare at him; he looked so much older than me now, even though we were only a few years apart in age.
His shoulders were broad and strong, his features sharp and defined.
He glanced up at the mirror and caught sight of me staring at him through the gap in the stall door.
Our eyes met for a brief moment before he looked away again.
I quickly pulled back into the safety of our stall, my heart pounding against my chest.
Tim leaned against the wall next to me, his eyes fixed on the floor.
Neither of us spoke until we heard the eighth-grader leave the bathroom and close the door behind him.
