Surrounded by cameras and a bustling studio, Tommy struggles to understand his new identity as Marianne.

1. It was a rainy night in the late 2010s when young Tommy lay in his bed, unable to sleep.
2. Tommy was a bright, 8-year-old boy, born on August 3rd, 2011.
3. With his 4-foot-tall frame and 60-pound body, his blueberry eyes scanned the darkened room.
4. His light brown hair, short and slightly messy, tickled the edge of his forehead.
5. He was of Caucasian descent, a typical midwestern lad living with his young mother.
6. His mom, Jennifer Smith, was a vibrant 27-year-old born on June 17th, 1992.
7. Standing at 5'6" and with a weight of around 135 pounds, she carried herself with grace.
8. Her long, brown hair cascaded down her back in soft waves, a stark contrast to her piercing green eyes.
9. Typically, Jennifer wore her hair in a loose ponytail, giving her a youthful and approachable appearance.
10. Tonight, however, Tommy could not seem to shake off the feeling of unease.

11. As he tossed and turned, the familiar hums and creaks of the house continued in their usual rhythm.
12. But suddenly, the sounds around him changed.
13. Tommy sat up, ears straining to catch the unusual noises.
14. It wasn't the familiar rustling trees or creaking floors.
15. Instead, he heard a clear voice, a woman speaking anxiously.
16. "Marianne, are you alright?" the voice echoed in his ears.
17. Tommy jerked fully awake as if someone had physically shaken him.
18. He blinked, bewildered, the shadowy shapes of his room morphing into unfamiliar forms.
19. Heart racing, he looked around and realized he wasn't in his bedroom anymore.
20. Around him was a bustling camera crew setting up lights and adjusting microphones.

21. A woman, dressed in a professional suit and high heels, sat next to him.
22. Her suit was a dark navy blazer and matching pencil skirt, fitting neatly over her slender figure.
23. Her high heels, maroon in color, had a sleek and polished finish, adding inches to her height.
24. She wore delicate pearl earrings and a silver bracelet on her right wrist.
25. Her name tag read "Marianne Wallace."
26. Marianne was a poised 37-year-old, born on September 15th, 1980.
27. Standing at 5'8" and weighing around 140 pounds, she had shoulder-length, platinum-blonde hair styled in loose curls.
28. Her eyes were an intense blue, filled with confusion and concern.
29. She'd been a respected news anchor for 15 years, her reputation as solid as her demeanor.
30. Suddenly, Marianne turned to Tommy, with worry etched on her face.

31. "Marianne," she said, "are you alright? You seem a bit off."
32. Tommy gulped, her words confusing him further.
33. He looked down and noticed he was wearing an outfit similar to Marianne's.
34. The suit he wore wasn't exactly like hers but still professional—a light grey blazer with pinstripes and a matching skirt.
35. The high heels on his feet were black, slightly lower in height than the maroon ones Marianne wore.
36. Looking at his hands, he saw they were adorned with rings, an elegant watch gracing his left wrist.
37. He knew these weren't his clothes, or his accessories.
38. "Marianne?" the woman repeated, worry in her voice. "Do you need to call your husband? You're not acting like yourself."
39. Bewildered, Tommy stammered, unsure of what was happening.
40. "Um, I'm not supposed to look like a girl, I'm a boy. Have you seen my mommy?"

41. Tommy’s voice sounded different, more mature and authoritative like a news anchor's.
42. The woman gasped, "Oh jeez, Marianne, you're having a manic episode. Take the day off, hon. Call your husband."
43. Standing up, Tommy stumbled, the unfamiliar heels making him unsteady.
44. He carefully sat down again, removing the high heels with trembling hands.
45. Desperately, he tried to revert to his old self, listing changes in his head.
46. 1. Remove rings.
47. 2. Change clothes.
48. 3. Cut hair short.
49. 4. Stop wearing makeup.
50. 5. Shrink height.
51. 6. Lose weight.
52. 7. Change voice.
53. 8. Alter eye color.
54. 9. Grow back my hair.
55. 10. Find Mom.

56. Tears welled in his eyes, none of his innocent attempts working.
57. Deep down, he felt the swap was permanent.
58. The other woman reentered the room, "If you could just do the first segment with me, I can handle the rest of the show. Also, why did you take your high heels off?"
59. "Um, the shoes were hurting my feet," Tommy responded, his words coming out crisply like a news anchor.
60. The woman frowned but nodded understandingly.
61. Tommy reluctantly slipped the high heels back on and sat down again, dreading the teleprompter.

62. The other anchor began the broadcast, "1. Local man arrested for arson.
63. 2. Evidence suggests premeditation.
64. 3. Witnesses claim they saw him near the scene multiple times.
65. 4. He was caught with gasoline in his trunk.
66. 5. Suspect's lawyer denies claims.
67. 6. Set trial date next month.
68. 7. Area residents worried about safety.
69. 8. Fire caused significant property damage.
70. 9. No casualties reported.
71. 10. Authorities increased patrols. And now to you, Marianne."

72. She got up and walked out suddenly, leaving Tommy alone.
73. He began reading the broadcast, his voice nervous. "Authorities have increased patrols after-- after recent arson."
74. Suddenly, she returned and slipped a wedding ring onto his finger. "Here you go, this should make you forget the last 10-15 minutes."
75. "No, I--I--" Tommy's protest was cut short.
76. His memories started to shift and blur.
77. 1. Building sandcastles.
78. 2. Learning to tie shoes.
79. 3. First day of school.
80. 4. Playing tag in the park.
81. 5. Bedtime stories with Mom.
82. 6. Birthday parties.
83. 7. Losing his first tooth.
84. 8. Halloween costumes.
85. 9. Spring picnics.
86. 10. Winter snowmen.

87. Instead, he only remembered being a news anchor.
88. She blinked, confusion clear in her eyes, then cleared her throat.
89. She adjusted her posture to something more feminine, crossing her legs and sitting straight.
90. "Authorities have increased patrols after recent arson, causing significant damage," she read calmly with a more feminine womanly voice.
91. The other anchor looked at her concerned, "Are you okay, Marianne?"
92. "Yes, I'm fine now. My head is a little fuzzy. Was I saying I was an 8-year-old boy named Tommy again?"
93. "Yeah, you even took your high heels off."
94. "Oh no, I better put them on."

95. She slipped on the high heels, turning apologetically to her co-anchor.
96. "Please don't tell my husband. He gets so worried. I've been an anchor for 15 years and these weird dreams just started happening."
97. With a firm resolution, Marianne dove back into her professional role.
98. Her identity as Tommy vanished, leaving only the poised news anchor.
99. Outside, the rain continued to fall, unaware of the strange transformation that had occurred inside the studio.
100. Her life as Tommy was a distant dream, replaced by her new reality as Marianne Wallace.
