Inspect the skin of Marie

David watched as Katie kicked, freeing her foot from the suit of his mother and moving to the small basement window, unlocking it and pushing it open to escape. As she crawled out, she closed the window behind her, leaving the skin of Marie there on the floor.

David moved down the stairs trying to remain as quiet as possible, towards the skin of his mother. He kneeled to inspect it, touching it and feeling its enticing warmth. He looked at the opening with great interest, as if it were calling out to him. He dropped the skin and firmly slapped his checks with both hands, regaining his focus.

Then it all clicked, the way Katie was grumbling, his mother constantly asking about the package. Could the pens perhaps be the key to fixing his mom? He could bring her back, he had them.

But would he? The thought of becoming his mom, even to just see what it was like definitely stood out as interesting to David. The idea seemed more and more appealing as he thought of the warm sensation on his hands as he held it.
