"Cosmic Chaos: When Dad Became Mom and Instagram Sensation"
0 Points
0
Standing on the whirlpool of chaos that had become my life, I tried to pinpoint the exact moment it all went sideways. Was it when my dear ol’ dad called me to his deathbed, looking ghostly pale with his skeletal fingers clutching a crumpled paper like it was the last slice of pizza? Or perhaps it was when I, in a moment of sheer curiosity, read out loud the words he handed me, desperate to fulfill his bizarre, final wish to find him a new youthful body?
Whatever the specific moment was, it led me to this very awkward dining room scenario, where I sat across from what used to be Dad but was now a woman my age, with sultry blonde hair, wide curvy hips, and a rack that even Victoria's Secret would envy.
"So, honey, how did your day go?" My...Dad? Mom? Doad?... asked, in a voice that sounded both eerily familiar and utterly alien. She was twirling spaghetti around a fork with elegant ease, looking at me with his—her—Doug-like eyes.
"Well," I said, trying to navigate the maze of awkwardness, "I found out that my father has 100k followers on Instagram."
She giggled. "Ah, yes! My little social media empire. The ladies just can't get enough of me."
"And neither can the guys," I mumbled.
Doug stretched, his—her—chest heaving impressively. "Well, if you've got it, flaunt it, right?"
I nearly choked on my soda. "Dad, you really shouldn't be talking like that. You're basically...my age now."
Doug, aka Dad 2.0, shrugged nonchalantly. "Hey, if I can look like a Monet painting, why not enjoy it?" He got up and sauntered over to the window, his hips swaying in a way that could topple skyscrapers. "Besides," he added, peering out as if in deep thought, "this body is so low maintenance. I could get used to this!"

Later that afternoon, we decided to brave the public yet again, mostly because I needed coffee and because staying at home was becoming cringeworthy.
"Doad" strutted through the coffee shop like a runway model, turning heads left and right. My Dad-in-Bombshell’s-Body's newfound confidence was staggering. We ordered our coffee—mine with the usual shot of espresso, his with an extra shot of cellular youth.
As we waited, a woman approached Doug and gave her a sweet smile. "I just love your dress! It's so chic!"
Doug did a little twirl, showing off the goods (clearly not the dress). "Thanks!" she beamed. "Really shows off my assets, doesn’t it?" She made an exaggerated wink, pointing at her chest.
The woman’s smile wavered but held. "Y-Yes, it certainly does."
Embarrassed beyond belief, I tugged at Doug’s—Doad’s—arm. "We should go sit down now."
Sipping coffee at the table, we encountered yet another uncomfortable moment. A burly man with a tattooed sleeve sauntered up.
"You alright, babe?" he asked Doug, clearly under the impression that this beautiful woman sitting across from me needed a savior.
Doug’s expression turned smug. "Oh, I’m fine, chief. But thanks for offering! The name’s Doug, by the way." She extended a delicate, perfectly manicured hand.
The man blinked, confused. "Doug? That’s...well, that’s interesting."
I couldn't help the snort that escaped. "We get that a lot," I offered as an explanation.
After the guy awkwardly walked away, Doug nudged me. "Was it something I said?"
I shook my head, chuckling. "It’s always something you say, Dad."
We both laughed, the oddness of everything hitting us once more. Despite the awkwardness and the jarring visuals of my old man turned Instagram sensation, I’d begun to accept this new reality—my new Dad.
"Let’s go home," I said finally. "I left the TV on, and God knows what kind of trouble you could stir up on Twitter."
Doug flashed a thumbs-up. "Coolio! I’ll fix us some dinner. Chicken alfredo sound good?"
I sighed, shaking my head. “Sounds great, Dad. You make killer alfredo. In every sense of the word.”
As we walked home, I glanced sideways at my father-turned-hottie, realizing that the spell hadn’t turned everything backward. We were still Doug and I, navigating life’s unexpected sharp turns and speed bumps—just with noticeably curvier implications.

Prompt: write a story with dialogue where My dad was very sick and was lying on his death bed. He told me he had one last wish, to find him a new youthful body. He handed me a paper that had a spell on it. I read it an then he began an to de age in front of me. I must have read it wrong though because he’s now a woman my age with blonde hair and wide and curvy hips and a big rack. I don't know what to do this is super awkward especially now since he has figured out social media he's got tons of followers now. It is funny to go out in public with him now he still acts like his old self so when women come up to chat with himself he still calls himself Doug. One woman complimented his dress and he said it really showed off the goods and pointed to his chest. Although its awkward for me to have this ultra curvaceous and busty woman around the house at all times I've learned to accept my new dad.
