Review the Enhancement menu privately in the car bathroom when you stop at the next service station.

"Need to freshen up," you tell David as he pulls into the bustling motorway services. "Won't be a minute."

"I'll grab us some coffee for the rest of the drive," he replies, stretching as he exits the car. "Black with one sugar, right?"

You nod, surprised at how he already knows your preference—something fabricated by the app yet feeling completely natural to you both.

Inside the ladies' bathroom, you lock yourself in the furthest stall from the door. The constant hum of hand dryers and flushing toilets provides perfect cover as you pull out your phone. The screen illuminates immediately with a soft pink glow, Becky's avatar appearing with a flourish.

"Ready to become your most perfect self?" she chirps, her cartoon eyes sparkling. "You've got fifty-six Enhancement Credits to spend!"

A scrolling menu materializes, categories expanding with tantalizing options:

PERSONALITY ENHANCEMENTS (10-20 Credits)

• Intelligence Boost (+10 IQ) — 15 Credits

"You can mix and match, babe!" Becky explains, her animated hands gesturing excitedly. "But choose wisely—these are permanent enhancements to your Perfect Future!"

Your fingers hover over the options, mind racing with possibilities. With 56 credits, you could transform yourself in ways that would leave David speechless at dinner tonight.

A knock on the bathroom stall door startles you.

"Excuse me?" calls a woman's voice. "Are you almost finished? My daughter really needs to use the toilet."

"Just a second," you reply, quickly saving the enhancement menu to review later. You catch a glimpse of yourself in the mirror as you exit—copper hair, bright green eyes, the petite frame that's now permanently yours.

David waits by the car, two steaming cups in hand. "Everything okay? You were in there a while."

"Perfect," you smile, accepting the coffee. "Just thinking about tonight."

As you settle back into the passenger seat, the enhancement menu burns in your mind. By the time you reach London, you'll have decided exactly which upgrades to purchase—and exactly what kind of future Mia O'Sullivan is going to have.
