**Title: A New Dawn**
---
James was a small, curious boy, with a height of four feet and slender build weighing just 50 pounds. His sandy blonde hair was cut into a neat bowl cut, and his round blue eyes were filled with the eagerness of adventure. Today was special; he wore his favorite blue sneakers, paired with white socks, and a red T-shirt that had "Superhero" emblazoned across the front. It was his first time going out alone, an act that filled him with a mix of excitement and trepidation.
His 20-year-old mother, someone whom youthful mistakes had aged swiftly into maturity, had given him permission after much pleading. As James stepped out of their small house and onto the pavement, he felt a newfound sense of independence. "Stay safe, James!" his mother called from the porch, her eyes reflecting the dual nature of letting her baby roam free and her own anxiety.
The sun began its descent, shading the world in hues of amber and gold. James wandered through familiar streets, the playground, and the park, feeling a sense of calm. But as the light dimmed, his path seemed to grow more labyrinthine, and soon he found himself in a part of town he didn't recognize.
Nightfall approached rapidly, and James noticed a pair of skimpy sandals lying abandoned on the side of the path. The sandals were vibrant blue—definitely not pink, as he would have expected. They were strappy and flashy, lying in wait like a trap. He wrinkled his nose in disgust, deeming them undeniably girly.
"Yuck! Gross!" he muttered to himself and stepped to the side to avoid them. However, in his attempt to bypass the sandals, he tripped over an unseen root, causing his shoes and socks to fly off. For an unfortunate moment, his bare feet stumbled into the blue sandals.
"No! Ew!" He shrieked, kicking them off instantly. As he did, he felt a strange, tingling sensation spreading from his feet upwards. He watched in horror as his feet began to crack and change, turning a dark brown shade. Blue polish appeared on his toenails, making them vibrantly colorful.
"Mommy!" he screamed, his young voice trembling with fear and confusion. "M-Mommy, help!"
No help came. Instead, his small legs and torso began to feminize and mature, their hue darkening to match his feet. His arms and hands followed, becoming more delicate as long blue nails painted themselves onto his fingers.
His once youthful face stretched and contorted, transforming into that of a mature black woman with defined features, framed by thick, curly black hair styled elegantly. A skimpy clubbing outfit—tight, shimmering, and black—formed on his body, accompanied by a matching purse. Inside the purse, he would later find a lipstick, some cash, an ID, and a cellphone.
His memories fought against the tide of change. He tried to hold onto his identity as James until it was a vanishing echo in the recesses of his mind. He was no longer James. She was now a confident Black woman named Lorraine, aged 50, born on the 3rd of March, 1972, in Oregon. She stood tall at 5'8" and weighed 140 pounds. Lorraine's voice resounded in her mind, replacing James's with sass and pride.
"Ugh, being barefoot like this might ruin my nails," she complained, locating the sandals she had kicked off, now feeling an affinity for them. She sat down, carefully adjusting the sandals onto her reshaped feet, admiring the blue polish that matched perfectly. She slid each foot in, one by one, adjusting the straps with meticulous care.
With her sandals secured, she stood up and adjusted her purse, strutting down the road with newfound purpose. As she passed a store window, she caught her reflection. Setting her purse down, Lorraine posed various ways, each more confident than the last.
"Mm-mm, look at you, girl! You're flawless!" she hyped herself, grinning at her curves. She ran her hands over her hips, deliberately accentuating her shapely figure, all while admiring her vibrant nails and enviable curves. "Those hips don't lie, and these nails are on point!"
But as night fully cloaked the world, a shiver of intimidation crept over her. She whispered to herself, trying to find calm: "I am Lorraine Carter, proud and sassy at fifty. Born on March 3, 1972, in Oregon. Wearing this fine black dress and gorgeous blue sandals. My nails are fierce and so am I. The worst thing I've experienced—mama being called a traitor by her own brother at twenty-two—I handled that better than anyone."
She took a calming breath, thinking of her children and how much she loved them. "Michael, 28; Sandra, 25; Tiffany, 22; and my baby girl, Amy, always tryna wear my clothes and shoes. That girl even stole these sandals once—way too young for them!"
Reflecting on her sandals, she remembered, murmuring softly, "These were a gift from my best friend Monica. Love that girl."
Once more, Lorraine caught a glimpse of her reflection. "You got it, girl!" she shouted, dancing and shaking her hips, giving a shoutout to her mother and Oregon. "Look at me, I'm as fierce as Beyoncé!"
Just then, a rustling noise startled her. Clutching her purse close to her chest, she muttered, "Hell nah, who's finna tryna mess with me? What kinda nigga would mess with a woman like me, from Oregon no less!"
As she continued to walk, she held onto the sense of power and pride that now defined her. Lorraine was who she always was meant to be, and the shadow of James had all but disappeared.
