Naked, you stand before her.
'Come to Mummy,' she coaxes. 'You called me and here I am. Take this step, why don't you?' She held out a pair of pretty white knickers towards you. 'These belong to you.'
You stare back, unable to tear your gaze away from her warm, motherly face. Two eyebrows plucked to feminine arches; two bright blue eyes fix you in a hypnotic stare.
'One tiny step,' she says softy, and beckons. 'Take my hand.'
You stare down at her long slender fingers and brightly painted nails. She waves the knickers ceremoniously like a flag in a gentle breeze. Their splendour takes your breath away. With a high waist to hug your baby hips and row upon row of sumptuous lace topped with delicate silk bows to make you pretty.
Your mouth dries and you begin to sweat.
'That's all it takes - for someone like you to join me,' her voice continues seductively, and her blue eyes grow wide. 'For you are special.'
'S... S... Special,' you whisper.
'Special,' she repeats. 'I knew that from the moment you first cried for Mummy. You had an overwhelming longing; an emptiness inside which you yearned to be filled. And I can help you. I can help you escape, I can dress you, I can make you pretty. That's what you really want, isn't it. You want to revisit your childhood. To dress as a baby. That's why you called.'
'Yes,' you say dreamily. 'That's why I called.' You finger the soft sensual lace on the knickers but refuse to take them from her outstretched hand.
'Adult life isn't for you,' she went on; flattering, insistent. 'Not for you the stress of everyday life, the strain of work, the pressure of impossible deadlines, the fear of strangers and everything grown up. Because you are like so many others. You're a gentle sissy, a knicker wearer. A lover of lace, bows and frills!' Her voice becomes hush and intimate. 'You deserve more. You could be a beautiful baby. I can help you. Take my hand, Step into these knickers and you'll see. Look they even have your name on them.'
You gaze at the beautiful embroidery and move a step closer.
'Oh, what a time you've had of it,' she sighs. 'No one understands. Lonely, always frightened. But the tables can be turned. If you just take my hand and step into these gorgeous knickers. You'll be amazed.'
You shuffle awkwardly from one foot to the other.
'You can look how you wish. A new-born in disposable nappies and a pink fluffy baby grow, a toddler in a pretty gingham dress ready for a walk in the park, an excited toddler dressed for a birthday party in a sumptuous silk dress with layers of netting underskirts... Anything. Imagine it.'
You nod your head mechanically.
She waggles a cuddly toy at you. 'Mr Flopsey Bunny wants a friend. Be his friend?'
You take the toy and hold it close to you.
'That's right darling. You can be the baby of your dreams,' she says soothingly. 'Any baby at all. You can wear anything, do anything. Simply take hold of my hand, step into these knickers and all your desires shall be yours.'
You swallow hard. Your heart beats furiously. If this kind lady is right, you will never be an adult again.
