My roommate, Nick, was your average, run-of-the-mill, 25-year-old bachelor. He worshipped two things: his Xbox console and the altar of booze. And when it came to the fair sex, letās say he had a healthy and voracious appetite. But his simplified, hedonistic routine came to a screeching stop one mundane Wednesday. With one mysterious phone call, his life turned into something out of a science fiction novel.
He had been swapped at birth. Yes, you read that right. His real parents, people belonging to an affluent lineage, had found him. It was a mind-boggling mistake at the hospital. They had even sent in a picture of a busty and curvy woman, saying that according to his DNA, thatās what he shouldāve looked like. Imagine my surprise when I saw Nick, who barely has a few chest hairs, in comparison to the picture of the voluptuous lady framed by flaming red hair and curves for days.
Our apartment suddenly became a vortex of change. Starting with Nick's transformation. And yes, Iām not metaphorically implying it; he literally changed, taking on the ultra busty and curvy body that the picture had flaunted. His masculine features shifted, leaving a freshly minted woman behind. And Iāve got to be honest, Iām not sure how to cope living with this stunning version of āhim'.
Yet amidst all these physical changes, something didn't change - Nickās spirit. As if by cosmic joke, his personality survived the transformation unscathed. He still lounged in front of his Xbox, tossed back shots of beer with a natural ease and shocked me with his unnerving knowledge of sports statistics. And even though looking at him filled me with novel discomfort, his infectious laughter when we played Mario Kart was still reassuringly familiar.
The absurdity of the situation could not be overlooked, and so, in an attempt to lighten the unspoken tension, I gifted him an apron for his grilling escapades. It was emblazoned with, "Yes, I know not only the burgers have buns, I do too." A cheeky nod to her new figure. Surprisingly, Nick's eyes sparkled, and he laughed heartily, showing that same gap in his perfect set of teeth that always appeared whenever he laughed.
For all the chaotic changes, thereās a sense of normality creeping back into our lives. Or perhaps I'm just embracing the madness. It's just hard to wrap my head around the fact that my best friend wasn't supposed to be a regular Joe but a voluptuous Jane this whole time. But he's still my friend, and that's something worth hanging onto. The biggest challenge? Keeping my eyes off her when she's casually lounging on our couch in her sweatpants. Honestly, it's a challenge I'm not sure Iām up to handle.

Prompt: My roommate was your regular run of the mill 25-year-old guy. He liked video games, booze, and especially women. But his life came to a shocking turn when he got a phone call saying he was swapped at birth. It got even more crazy when he saw the body he was supposed to have been ultra busty and curvy. Iām not sure how Iām going to room with him looking like this, I donāt think I can handle that. At least he still has the same personality he loves sports and loves to play a good video game he also can still grill like a champ. I bought him a new apron as a joke that says Yes, I know not only the burgers have buns I do too, of course referring to his curvy ass. It's hard to believe my best friend was supposed to be a sexy woman his whole life.
