"It wasn't actually random, I wanted to be you. Do you know how hard it is to have dreams and be stuck as an unaccomplished housewife?" mom said now inhabiting my former body. The frustration is apparent in her eyes as she remembered how many things she had to put on pause.
She never really wanted to simply be a housewife, she initially wanted to be a superstar athlete but being a woman in a man's world was always a hindrance especially back in her time. She remembered how she was the top basketball player in her school back in high school but it never meant shit because women's basketball didn't draw much attention no matter how good someone is.
"David, you've wasted so much of your life. You were born a male with a good toned body without much work needed. I'll make use of your body than you ever would so better get use to it...mom" the new David said in a face that I could only describe as smug.
I felt enraged, mad, and yet this looming reality that she's right is dawning on me. There's a high possibility that I'm stuck as a middle age woman forever. Feeling my newly inhabited body, I really got the worse end of the draw. I wasn't in to sports but my body was naturally lean and toned. Now I feel like my entire body is soft and dumpy with my tits sagging and my stomach covered with flab. This body was not well kept at all and now I have to live the rest of my life with it.
I still feel mortified staring at my former body blatantly being paraded in front me. The new David stood there fully naked with his teenage dick fully erect right in front of me. She must be relishing how everything feels compared to how I'm feeling in this old and sad body of hers, and honestly I wouldn't blame her if she's ecstatic about this. Just a few minutes in this body made me feel depressed, imagine how living a lifetime in this pathetic shell of a woman would have felt?
I'm still mad at the entire thing but made a subconscious decision that as long as I'm inhabiting this body, I might as well work on it to make it as well as it could be.
"Good you're both awake. We will be conducting some short tests with your bodily functions and afterwards you can go back home" a man wearing white uttered. He's probably the one in charge over here as he has this air of knowledge surrounding around him.
"The name is Dr. Sybert by the way. I am the head researcher for this program" he said as both me and my mom were changing back to the clothes that we wore before the procedure. Staring at mom inhabiting my old body, I never realized how good I looked in tight clothes. I never liked wearing tight clothes because it felt too revealing but she insisted before we go here that I wear some tight jeans and a shirt that emphasized my toned and lean body. It was uncomfortable but looking at my old body from an outside perspective, damn it looked good.
I wore instead a nice dress that she usually used for church visits. It's not really fancy as she never took care of her looks too much. Her hair even had some strands of grey in it and was relatively unkempt over the years. It's clear she was far too sad to take care of herself and that sadness seems to be permeating on to me the longer I inhabit this body.
Once we were both dressed, the doctor lead us to separate rooms where several tests were conducted. It was a regular procedure for the most part for medical examinations, except for the part that they extracted egg cells from my body. With this body being in its 40s, I'm not even sure if I'm still fertile but they said that they wanted to freeze some of my eggs (and I assume they kept some of the new David's sperm as well). I'm not sure what they wanted to do with it but according to the contract, they have free reign of what they will do to us for a hefty sum so there was nothing I can do.
After the examination, the new David and I met in the lobby where we met with Dr. Sybert once again.
"Everything seems to be fine. The experiment is over and you both are free to go back home" the doctor said.
"Sweet. I can't wait to hit the gym" said the eerily familiar voice that used to be mine. I was not that big on going to gyms but it seems like the new David was going to change that.
So we both went back home and dad...I mean Steve welcomed both of us excitedly. He patted the new David's head like how a dad usually does to his son and he gave me a peck on the lips. I felt mortified but I remembered that he was my husband now and this is my new reality...
