Title: The Transformation of Jonathan
Seven-year-old Jonathan was ecstatic. His 21-year-old mom, a young and loving single parent, had finally allowed him to venture out alone. An early evening sky stretched over the neighborhood, a bluish hue giving way to the encroaching darkness.
“Be careful, Jonathan! Don’t wander too far,” his mom had hollered from the doorstep. Her voice was laced with a mix of excitement and concern.
Determined to prove his independence, Jonathan trotted down the sidewalk. He pretended the cracks were lava, hopping and skipping over each one. He glanced around, taking in the unfamiliar night smells and sounds, feeling a tingle of uncertainty but pushing it away with bubbling adventure.
Walking past the grocery store, he spotted something peculiar lying on the sidewalk— a pair of sandals. They were flimsy, almost dainty, and curiously ostentatious. Not pink, but a garish neon yellow adorned with glitter and tiny beads.
“Ew, gross. Too girly,” Jonathan muttered, making a face. He intended to navigate around them but stumbled on a crack. His sneakers and socks flew off in the chaotic tumble, and somehow, his feet slipped into the sandals.
Revulsion crept over him; the sandals felt all wrong. He jerked his feet back, intending to kick them off, but a strange tingling sensation took over. Horrified, he watched as his small feet aged and roughened, then became slim with crackling and aging. They took on a brown shade with a shocking bright green nail polish appearing on the toenails.
“What is happening?!” Jonathan turned to run but found himself immobile. His legs lengthened dramatically, gaining a feminine shape. His whole body was turning an unrecognizable brown. Muscles transformed, leaving his frame slender and womanly. His black kid's shorts and t-shirt morphed into an eye-catching, skimpy clubbing outfit—a strapless, purple sequined mini-dress that clung snugly.
Jonathan's hair erupted into a vibrant mass of curls styled into an elegant updo, framing a face with large brown eyes and full, pouty lips. He—no, she—stumbled for balance. Confusion hit her anew as she realized she was a woman. Jonathan's memories as a boy faded, replaced by those of a sassy black woman who glared down at her bare feet, annoyed.
“And just great, barefoot now?” she muttered, a flicker of her old self.
She recovered quickly, slipping into the neon yellow sandals, securing the straps with defiant confidence. They fit perfectly. With newfound poise, she strutted towards a storefront mirror, swaying her hips and casting confident glances at her reflection.
Turning this way and that, she struck poses—admiring her curves, the fit of her dress, the way her altered face seemed to glow. “Hell nah, this dress hittin’ different tonight!” she exclaimed, one hand on her hip.
From her glittery clutch, she pulled out a small tube of deep plum lipstick and a compact mirror. Carefully, she applied the color to her lips and added a swipe of shimmery eyeshadow, completing her transformation. “Finna can’t be out here lookin’ all basic,” she nodded approvingly.
Suddenly, the encroaching darkness became unsettling. “Hell nah, I ain’t tryna be out here shakin’ in my shoes,” she muttered, though the sandals gleamed mockingly under the streetlight.
She tried to calm herself, standing tall and listing facts about herself. “I’m Monique Jenkins. Thirty-five, born July 2nd, 1988. I’m five foot eight, a hundred and forty-five pounds of pure sass. From Atlanta, ya heard? And the most sassy thing I ever done? Shutting down Simone at that nightclub for stealin' my drink,” she declared with a snap of her fingers.
Monique pulled out a pair of chandelier earrings from her purse, fastening them with practiced ease. She admired her reflection, her sandals now a point of pride. “I got these beauties from Kiki’s Boutique. I can’t wait to drink some margaritas tonight and meet up with my sistas, Trina and Shanelle, and tease a couple fine niggas,” she grinned.
With Jonathan's existence completely erased, Monique strutted away in those gaudy neon sandals, a confident woman with a mysterious past she’d never know.
