Found happiness by accident (Patreon)

Curtis sipped from his steaming cup of coffee, the aroma of freshly ground beans filling the small kitchen. Josiah had just kissed his forehead, the warmth of his lips lingering on Curtis's skin. "I'll be back soon, love," Josiah had whispered before stepping out the door, his footsteps fading down the hall.

The house was quiet now, and Curtis felt an unfamiliar sense of peace wash over him. The weight of his previous life, the stress of turning back into a man, no longer consumed his thoughts. The Great Shift had been both a curse and a blessing. It had swept across the globe, causing chaos and confusion as some clusters of people woke to find themselves trapped in unfamiliar bodies. Families were torn apart, identities lost, and lives changed forever.

Curtis had been one of the many victims, finding himself in his friend’s female body that wasn't his own. Vanessa had been horrified as well when she found herself in his stressful life. He owned multiple coffee shops and was in meetings everyday. For weeks, they had searched for a surgical solution alongside Vanessa, desperate to switch back, but with each passing day, he began to question his motivations. Was it truly a desire to return to his old life or simply fear of the unknown?

Vanessa was a close friend who had adapted quickly to her new male body. She eventually learned to love her newfound status as a business owner, enjoying the power and respect that accompanied her transformation. She never made this much money being Josiah’s wife, and she made way more than Josiah. She always wanted to hustle, but her husband refused to let her get a job. It was that level of control and toxicity that made her want to keep her male body. Her acceptance of the change had unsettled Curtis at first, but as time passed, he began to understand her perspective.

Curtis actually found that the life of a housewife suited him more than he had ever imagined. He no longer yearned for the stress and responsibility of running multiple businesses. He found solace in the simple tasks of keeping house, preparing meals for Josiah, and tending to their small garden.

And as he sat on the porch, Curtis realized that the desire to become a mother had taken root within him. It was a foreign concept, but the idea filled him with warmth and hope. He knew that Josiah would make a wonderful father, and he couldn't wait to start their family together. In the quiet of the house, Curtis contemplated his journey. The Great Shift had been an unexpected twist in his life, but it had led him to discover his true self. He had found a love and partnership with Josiah that he never knew was possible, and the life they were building together brought him more happiness than he could have ever imagined as Vanessa.
