She slipped into a tight red dress, one that hadn’t seen daylight in years.
Her reflection smirked back at her from the mirror—older, wiser, still radiant.
Downstairs, the babysitter’s eyes widened at her transformation.
The kids, already asleep, would never know.
At the club, whispers followed her every step, a storm in heels.
Men tried their luck, but her smile was untouchable, reserved.
She danced like a flame, every move drawing light.
Midnight struck, and her phone buzzed—“Mom, I can’t sleep.”
Her glow softened; she blew one last kiss to the night.
By dawn, she was home again, just mom in slippers.
