St. Paddy’s tg

18

You wake up in the back of a vintage green pickup truck, snow drifting softly around you. You’re no longer Walter “Walt” Harrison, the frail 80‑year‑old man you were the night before. Instead, you now appear to be Aoife O’Sullivan, a lively 20‑year‑old Irish woman with bright features, long braids, and festive St. Paddy’s Day clothes. Your heartbeat is strong, your body feels young, and the cold air stings your cheeks in a way you haven’t felt in decades. Green balloons bob in the breeze, and a pot of gold rests beside you. As you try to understand this impossible transformation, someone begins walking toward the truck with a curious smile — and your story begins.
