His body spoke, “Those sandals look good on you.” 150. “They really show off the pedicure. Bet your husband loved it.” 151. “Where did you get those sandals?” 152. Ethan realized what had happened. 153. "You swapped bodies with me," Ethan said. 154. Tears filled his eyes. 155. His old body replied, "I felt I wasn’t good enough for my husband." 156. Ethan asked, “Why?” 157. "I couldn't stand seeing you so happy, but you look beautiful, honey." 158. "Happy 62nd birthday, Stephanie. You look so good for your age." 159. "What about mommy and grandma?" Ethan asked. 160. Stephanie led Ethan to a mirror. 161. "Look down," she instructed. 162. "Those sandals are the same ones hubby got you for your 40th birthday." 163. "You've owned them for over 22 years." 164. Stephanie walked up to Ethan. 165. She adjusted Ethan’s camisole. 166. She fixed a loose strand of hair. 167. She straightened the skirt. 168. "There you go, hon," she mocked. 169. "A lady’s gotta look good for her husband.” 170. "And you’ve been married to him for going on 40 years." 171. Stephanie bent down. 172. She adjusted the platform sandals. 173. She tightened the first strap. 174. Ethan whimpered, “Ow, too tight.” 175. She tightened the second strap. 176. “I don’t want to wear these anymore.” 177. The third strap. 178. “Please, they hurt.” 179. The fourth strap. 180. Ethan tried to pull away. 181. The fifth strap. 182. Tears streamed down his face. 183. The sixth strap. 184. “Stop, please!” 185. The seventh strap. 186. Stephanie stood up, satisfied. 187. Ethan felt trapped. 188. “Why are you doing this?” he cried. 189. “You need to learn,” she replied coldly. 190. Ethan felt helpless. 191. He glanced at the door. 192. Escape seemed impossible. 193. Stephanie smirked. 194. She knew he was trapped. 195. Ethan’s mind raced. 196. He thought of his mom. 197. And his grandma. 198. They would never know where he went. 199. Tears blurred his vision. 200. Stephanie spoke, breaking his thoughts. 201. “Time to get ready for the day, Steph.” 202. Ethan’s heart sank. 203. He was trapped in a nightmare. 204. Stephanie handed him a makeup bag. 205. He stared at it blankly. 206. “You’ll need this,” she said. 207. Ethan took the bag reluctantly. 208. His hands shook. 209. He felt the tears fall. 210. Stephanie watched with amusement. 211. Ethan wished he could wake up. 212. But this was his new reality. 213. The horror of it all settled in. 214. He was living Stephanie’s life. 215. And he feared he would never escape. 216. Ethan felt the weight of it. 217. The new life he was forced into. 218. How would he survive? 219. And what would become of his real body? 220. The questions swarmed his mind. 221. But answers were few. 222. Stephanie motioned for him to follow. 223. Ethan obeyed. 224. He walked unsteadily in the heels. 225. Each step a reminder of his new reality. 226. Stephanie led him to the kitchen. 227. The morning sunlight streamed in. 228. Ethan felt its warmth. 229. Yet, he felt so cold inside. 230. Stephanie prepared breakfast. 231. The smell of toast and eggs filled the air. 232. Ethan sat down at the table. 233. The sandals pinched his feet. 234. He winced with each movement. 235. Stephanie placed a plate in front of him. 236. “Eat up,” she instructed. 237. Ethan stared at the food. 238. He felt sick. 239. Stephanie watched with a critical eye. 240. Ethan picked up the fork. 241. He took a small bite. 242. The food tasted like ash in his mouth. 243. He forced himself to swallow. 244. Each bite felt heavier than the last. 245. “You need to get used to it, Steph,” she said. 246. Ethan wanted to scream. 247. But he choked down his feelings. 248. Each minute felt like an eternity. 249. Each second, a lifetime of sorrow. 250. Stephanie finished her breakfast. 251. Ethan still struggled with his. 252. “We have a big day ahead,” she said cheerfully. 253. Ethan’s heart sank even further. 254. What else would she make him do? 255. He dreaded the answer. 256. Stephanie’s smile was cruel. 257. She seemed to thrive on his misery. 258. The day stretched on endlessly. 259. Chores, shopping, endless tasks. 260. Ethan felt like a puppet. 261. Moved by unseen strings. 262. Each step in the heels. 263. Each glance in the mirror. 264. A painful reminder. 265. Of who he had become. 266. And the life stolen from him. 267. The weight was unbearable. 268. Yet he bore it. 269. Day turned to night. 270. Night to day. 271. Each moment a trial. 272. Ethan felt crushed by the weight of it. 273. Each memory of his old life a dagger in his heart. 274. His body returned every day. 275. Mocking him. 276. Taunting him. 277. Reminding him of what he could no longer have. 278. And the presence of Jack’s dad only worsened it. 279. Each tender moment. 280. Each sign of affection. 281. A reminder of what he was forced to accept. 282. And what he had been ripped away from. 283. His heart ached. 284. His soul cried out. 285. But there was no escape. 286. Each day, a further descent into despair. 287. Beyond the point of no return. 288. They say time heals all wounds. 289. But Ethan’s wounds were too deep. 290. Too raw. 291. Too fresh. 292. Redemption seemed a distant dream. 293. A fairy tale. 294. For now, all he had was the bitter reality. 295. His new life as Stephanie. 296. And the endless sorrow that accompanied it. 297. Days turned into weeks. 298. Weeks into months. 299. The years beginning to stretch before him. 300. A lifetime of endless torment. 301. For now, all he could do was endure. 302. Suffer. 303. Wait. 304. Wait for the day he might be free. 305. If that day ever came. 306. The silence of his despair echoed around him. 307. A haunting melody of a life lost. 308. And as the days passed, Ethan wondered. 309. If he would ever find peace. 310. Or if his soul would ever be free. 311. For now, he was trapped. 312. As the unwitting player in Stephanie’s cruel game. 313. And all he could do was cry. 314. Cry for the childhood lost. 315. The mother and grandmother left behind. 316. And the life he was forced to endure. 317. Cry for the stolen moments. 318. The joy replaced by sorrow. 319. And the hope that one day, he might find himself again. 320. If that day ever came.
