Title: The New Normal

---

"Listen, Clark, I swear, if this bra keeps pinching me, I'm gonna lose it," said Jenna—formerly known as Jack—as she adjusted the offending garment for what felt like the hundredth time. She stood in front of my desk, leaning against it with an air of exasperated elegance, one hip cocked to the side. "And if Dave don't quit starin' at me like he's never seen a woman before, he’s gonna get an eyeful of my fist."

I chuckled, leaning back in my chair. "I can't blame him, Jenna. You do look, well, quite stunning. But I get it; it’s got to be annoying."

Jenna rolled her eyes, tossing her blonde curls over her shoulder with an exaggerated sigh. "Stunning or not, these heels are killin' me. I used to handle wrenches, not stilettos. Y'know Clark, I could replace a carburetor blindfolded but walkin' in these shoes feels like a death trap."

"Hey, you’re doing great as my secretary. Seriously, I don't know what I’d do without you," I said, giving her a reassuring smile.

"Well, better be grateful. You’re lucky I’m not sulkin’ at home feelin’ sorry for myself."

"But you'd miss all the fun here at the office!" I grinned, trying to lighten the mood.

Jenna smirked. "Right, and miss Dave’s googly-eyes? No thanks. That man is a piece of work."

I leaned forward, my voice lowering just a bit. "So… I was thinking, maybe tonight we could, I don’t know, go out? Just the two of us?"

Jenna raised an eyebrow, a playful glint in her eyes. "Well now, Clark, are you askin’ me out on a date?"

"I guess I am." I felt my cheeks heating up. "I mean, we’ve always been close, but maybe we could see where this new dynamic takes us."

"New dynamic, huh?" Jenna chuckled, her Southern drawl making the words feel almost like a caress. "Well, shoot, it ain't like I got any other plans. Plus, it's you, Clark—I know you mean well."

"Great! I was thinking we could hit that new sports bar downtown. You know, grab some wings, watch the game?"

"Sounds perfect. Lord knows I could use a break from these damned heels. And Clark," Jenna’s expression softened, "thanks for bein' there for me through all this."

I smiled, feeling a weight lift off my chest. "Always, Jenna. Or should I say, Jack?"

Jenna shook her head with a laugh. "Jenna works just fine now. But don’t you worry, I still remember the kick-off times and who’s leading in the quarterback stats."

"That's my girl," I said, feeling a warmth spread through me.

Jenna winked. "Your girl, huh? Well, let's see how the evening goes, shall we?"

"Deal," I said, unable to keep the grin off my face.

As the sun began to set, casting a golden hue over the city, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement for the night ahead. The world may have changed with the Great Shift, but some things—like friendship, loyalty, and maybe even love—remained the same. And if that meant adjusting to a new normal with a wisecracking, sports-loving blonde by my side, then I was more than ready for the adventure.

Prompt: Write a story with dialogue where After the great shift which was an event that swapped 75 percent of the countries bodies my buddy had lost his job. He was an auto mechanic and his boss didn’t think he could do it anymore since he was now in the body of a southern Hooters waitress with a huge rack and a curvy blonde body he also kept her accent. I let him stay with me and I also got him a job as my secretary for the time being. There’s no doubt he’s now the hottest in the office. The best part is he is still his old goofy wisecracking self but just in a far sexier body He also still has knowledge about sports which is great to talk about at work with him. Today he was complaining about his bra pinching and the fact that Dave one of my coworkers wouldn't stop checking him out. I'm thinking about asking him out on a date tonight, I hope he says yes. Write my friends Dialogue with a southern Drawl.
