A grocery store is already a place teeming with life—even more so in the year 2020, where masks and social distancing are the new normals. It is in this setting that we meet our young protagonist, Michael.
At just 7 years old, Michael was born on June 19, 2013. A small boy for his age, he stands at 3'10" and weighs just 45 pounds. His shaggy auburn hair, which curls slightly at the ends, often falls into his wide blue eyes—eyes that hold a curiosity about the world, despite the perilous era he's been born into. Caucasian, his skin lightly freckled, he wears a homemade face mask, a blue t-shirt emblazoned with the logo of his favorite superhero, Spider-Man, and cargo shorts. On his feet are a pair of Velcro sneakers, scuffed at the toes from countless backyard adventures.
His mother, a young woman named Rachel, fusses over him as they traverse the crowded aisles. Born on April 15, 1995, the 25-year-old stands at 5'6" and weighs 135 pounds. Her long, blonde hair is knotted in a messy bun, and her green eyes are lined with dark circles from sleepless nights. She wears yoga pants and a loose tank top, a baseball cap on her head, and a pair of battered running shoes, all signs of someone who prioritized practicality over style in these tumultuous times.
Things take a turn for the worse as the garbled warnings on the store’s intercom come alive with urgency. "Zombies—inside—run—safety protocols." Panic spreads through the store like wildfire.
"Michael, stay close to me!" Rachel screams, her voice tinged with terror as she grabs a cart to shield her and her son. The room erupts into chaos, and shoppers scatter in all directions, their fear palpable.
As Michael clutches his mom’s hand, they dart toward the exit. From the corner of his eye, he spots a group of seven women entering the store, seemingly out of place amidst the bedlam. They are African American women, all clad in eye-catching, skimpy outfits, high heels, and carrying purses that sway with their hurried steps. The oldest, a statuesque woman named Shanise, leads the group.
Amid the swirl, Michael’s attention is caught by a woman with fuchsia hair, cut into a chic bob, wearing a sequined mini-dress and jewel-encrusted sandals. Her name is Latesha, a 35-year-old from Miami, Florida, born on March 5, 1985. She stands at 5'8" and weighs 150 pounds, her laugh as bright as her dress.
Rachel yanks him, but not before one of the women—Tanisha, 28, from Houston, Texas, born on September 12, 1992, standing at 5'7", weighing 140 pounds, wearing a gold metallic dress and leopard-print stilettos—reaches for him. Her touch is electric, and Michael feels disoriented—his vision blurring and twisting.
When he opens his eyes, he realizes, bewildered, that he's no longer looking up but down—down at an unfamiliar, voluptuous body clad in Tanisha’s eye-catching ensemble. He gags, his new ebony hands shaking as he sees polished nails and feet adorned in skimpy sandals. He tugs at the straps, struggling to comprehend his transformation.
"Mom! What's going on? Oh my God, Mom!" he yells, but the voice that comes out is not his own—it’s an unfamiliar female voice laden with a thick Southern accent, punctuating the horror with words he doesn’t understand, "Boo, what's happening? Gurl, this ain’t right!"
He tries to swap back, but he's trapped. Tanisha's friends grab his new feminine hands, hurrying him through the store. One of them, Shantel, 25, from Chicago, Illinois, born on July 8, 1995, at 5'6" and 135 pounds sporting a hot pink bodycon dress and rhinestone-encrusted heels, snaps, "Tanisha! You gotta focus, boo. You actin’ so clueless!"
"Girl, get with the program," another friend, Ayesha, 22, from Detroit, Michigan, born on November 30, 1998, at 5'5" and 145 pounds in a neon green plunging neckline top and high-waisted shorts, adds, her voice dripping with sass. "We need to get outta here! You lookin' all sorts of a mess!"
"I'm scared," Michael cries, but what comes out instead is, "This body is somethin’ else, these curves! Girl, what is happenin’?!"
They stop in an alleyway, checking each other over, relief mixed with grim determination. Shantel turns to Michael and says, "You alright, Tanisha? Ooh girl, you look so fine. I love your pink pedicure—really reppin' Houston loud and proud, baby! I just love the way those sandals look on your feet!"
Michael stammers, feeling his new feminine hand run over Shantel's body, "Uh, yeah, boo, you too, gurl!"
With a scream, he kicks off the sandals, eyeing his new, dainty bare feet with disgust. He scratches at the polish, the reality sinking in. Trying to think of his mother, he mutters, "I’m gonna miss mommy so much, bye-bye momm—" but, unexpectedly, it emerges as "Shimmy on, b*tch, this ain’t workin’!"
As he tries to recall facts about himself, it comes out differently: "I love bein' Tanisha, boo! Born September 12, 1992, from Houston, baby! What—?"
The apocalypse had altered more than just the people; it had twisted the very fabric of reality, leaving a young boy lost in a woman's body, struggling to hold onto his identity in a world gone mad.
