"Reflections of Joanna: A Transformation in Blue"

Just as she always did, Officer Jonathon Patrick—no, it wasn't Jonathan anymore, a soft whisper in her mind tried to remind. But she wasn't ready to call herself anything else yet, clambered into the uniformed patrol car. As she checked herself in the rearview mirror before setting off for the shift, she felt a subtle shock ripple through her.
Her face was different. It was... softer, with rounded cheeks and full lips. Her nose that had boasted of a past broken in high school football was now small and delicate. Long, dark lashes framed almond-shaped eyes, traces of mascara enhancing their depth. Her hair, once closely cropped, was now a chestnut cascade falling past her shoulders. Without thinking, her fingers reached for the hair tie conveniently secured around her wrist, pulling her hair back into a bun—a maneuver she didn’t realize she perfectly knew.
The familiar silhouette of the strong and box-like man was replaced by a lean and gracefulness of a woman reflected in the mirror. A spark of fear flickered in the back of the officer's eyes as she realized, instinctively, that she was no longer him.
Her uniform was unchanged in color—a deep blue tinged with black—but the fabric clung differently now. It fit more snugly around her waist, accentuating an hourglass figure she had never possessed. Her badge shone on her chest, slightly off-placed, sitting right above the pocket on the front of her standard issue blouse. The policeman's cap she used to wear was replaced with a smaller, form-fitting policewoman's hat. It sat neatly above the restrained bun, casting a long, unfamiliar shadow over her face.
Just as instinctively as she'd secured her hair, she crossed one slender leg over the other while she sat, feeling an uncanny wave of déjà vu. Wasn't this always how she sat? No, it wasn't but she couldn't remember how she used to. Jerome—no, Joanna heard herself speak through the radio, noticing how her voice sounded lighter and pitched. The name—one she was not familiar with but one the world recognized her as—rolled smoothly off her tongue with an effortless grace.
The stranger in the rearview mirror unnerved her and she found herself playing with strands of her bun in discomfort. An idle tic she never possessed expressing an unease she'd never experienced.
Reality seemed to have twisted itself inside out. Everything was the same but she was not. Her memories fought against the reflections of herself in the mirror—the way she spun the hair tie around her wrist, the ease with which she slipped into feminine mannerisms, the way her gaze lingered just a heartbeat longer on the tall officer Rob approaching the car. The rush of admiration seemed unwarranted, inexplicable as Jerome had always been more inclined towards the fairer sex. But now? Now she couldn't fathom it. The feelings of familiarity women had once evoked were replaced by a vague sense of confusion and a desperate need to remember.
Yet, despite her frantic attempts, the past and the present seemed to drift apart like two separate continents. The uniform remained the same, but its wearer had changed. The officer was still patrolling the same streets, but unlike before, she was patrolling them as Joanna. The world knew her as a woman. And against all odds, and against her will, so did she.
