"Simple. Just show your love for each other." She smiled, ruffling Minda's hair.
"There may be some feelings for Minda, but that's because I've always looked after her & Jess like my little sisters." Bob said, crossing his arms over his chest.
"Perhaps a trip down memory lane will fix that denial." Aphrodite said, placing a finger to Minda & Bob's foreheads. In a flash the two found themselves on a familiar stretch of beach. "Are we back home?" Minda asked, looking confused. "Not quite." Bob said, pointing to three figures nearby. It was easy for them to recognize Jess and Bob, but the fat and nerdy looking girl in jogging attire with them was far different looking from the Minda with a wedding ring on her finger. "Is that us from last year?" Minda said, hardly able to believe what they were seeing.

"Correct. You are experiencing the day that your romance for each other started to blossom and grow." Aphrodite said.

Bob was a little startled as the goddess stood behind them. They watched as Minda hunched over, looking out of breath. It only took a few short words between her and Jess to send the fat girl running off in tears, Jess holding out a hand as she cried out in regret. Bob grabbed her arm, stopping the blonde from further sticking her foot in her mouth. As the image of Jess ran off it quickly faded, Leaving Bob as he ran after Minda to comfort her. "I was just worried about her." Bob said, not seeing what Aphrodite was talking about regarding romance.

"That may have been what your brain was saying, but your heart was saying something different. You secretly had a crush on her for years, and that summer was when your feelings for her began to grow."

"Hmph, shows what you know. I'd only known her a year by this point in time." Bob said as Minda watched the memory play on. She knew that day she'd started to have feelings for him. He was the first guy to ever really take notice of her, let alone care for her. The images began to fade as he offered to take her out for ice cream and she'd hugged him tightly. Suddenly Minda found her old glasses on her and now hugging Bob. The two were momentarily confused before realizing they'd gone from watching the memory to reliving it. Minda quickly released Bob, blushing as he worked on sucking in much needed air.

"Now do you see. The universe means for you two to be together. You are both perfect for each other."

"One kind gesture means nothing." Bob coughed. "Besides, if the universe meant for us to be together we'd be closer in age."
Minda looked sad as she reached out to help him up, partly from being her fat nerdy self again and partly because it seemed Bob didn't love her. As she grabbed his hand their rings began to glow. Minda felt a pain in her chest as a faded image of some young woman started to appear. She realized though that the pain in her chest wasn't her pain, but Bob's. Quickly he pulled his hand away from hers, blushing as the image vanished.

"Another piece of evidence. Those rings only glow when one is holding the hand of their soul mate. And the image you saw was what Bob would look like as a woman."

Minda was a bit surprised by this bit of news, blushing as she tried to figure out why the rings would show them what Bob looked like as a woman. She had never thought of herself as a lesbian or even bi. The only time she'd ever shared a bed with another girl was Jess and it had only been because Bob's room at the mansion had one bed and they had been fattened up by one of Jonathan's inventions. "Why...Why did the rings show us tht image?" She asked, turning to the goddess.

"Because it is revealing a secret personality the sleeps within this young boy."

"A secret personality? Do you mean Bobbi?"

"Exactly. Both of them are one in the same. Now then, after viewing those memories, can each of you see the love between you? Let's start with Minda first."

“Well…I don’t know how I feel about Bobbi, but I know I love Bob. Even when so many seemed to be mean to me just for looking like this…” She said, grabbing her flabby belly. “He was able to look past that, wanting what made me happy.” Minda smiled, looking over to Bob for a moment. She then looked to Aphrodite. “Even though I was old enough to make the decision to marry without my parents’ consent…If Bob is worried about our age difference then I’ll make myself older and have the world altered to believe that was my normal age.” “Minda, no. Yours and Jess’s contracts dictate…”
“We can’t alter the way we or anyone else looks permanently with anything from the mansion.” Minda said, finishing his sentence. “But the house and even this place aren’t a part of the mansion.” She said, stating the loophole in the document her and Jess had signed after each of their first visits. “Think about it Bob…If I were older our marriage and even the twins wouldn’t have to be hid from my parents. Our children would be able to know their grandparents.” Minda said with a weak smile.
“And what about what you’d lose in the process?” Bob asked, a worried look on his face.

"No..." Bob said, grabbing Minda's hand. "Minda what about your senior year of high school? What about all the people and memories you'd make during those lost years?...What about the part of yourself you'll lose?" He asked, holding her hand tightly.
