**Title: Vacancy**
Yasuna's parents never loved her for who she was; they loved what she represented—a smiling daughter, a reason for neighbors to nod approvingly at their neat, Japanese household.
They knew the Swap was coming. It was a thing muttered about at shrines, whispered in the hush of ancestral houses: sometimes, on a bitter midnight, a soul might be snatched and replaced. No one spoke about it directly. But Yasuna’s parents prepared.
The Swap came quietly. Yasuna’s body awoke with alien movements, her laugh slightly off, her gaze too lingering. But inside, Yasuna—the soul—was gone. In her place, a boy, with frantic confusion and memories of another life.
He tried to make sense of his new existence. He learned quickly: something was missing. He couldn’t see boys, couldn’t even perceive their presence—the world filtered through Yasuna’s body, which carried its own rules and blind spots. In places where boys should be—on the street, in the classroom—there was nothing, just emptiness.
Yasuna’s parents watched the new inhabitant with cold eyes. They took care of the body, stern and rigid, not out of love but out of obligation. In Japan, appearance was everything. They coached the boy to act like Yasuna. They rehearsed her mannerisms, drilled him on polite greetings.
He asked, quietly, about swapping back. He searched for clues. But the parents watched. If the body stood to lose its veneer of normality, or if someone suspected the soul inside was different, the consequences would be severe.
At night, he lay in Yasuna’s bed, listening to the quiet hum of the city. He wondered who he was anymore. The body wanted things—the body hungered, responded, recoiled when addressed by male voices that it couldn’t process. He wasn’t allowed to feel real fear, because in this new skin, even perceiving boys was impossible. The body denied it.
Sometimes, he’d catch a flash in the mirror—a smile that wasn’t his own, a tilt of the head that felt like someone else’s sorrow. Yasuna’s parents would stand in the doorway, expressionless, not caring what happened to the soul inside, only to the body. Only that the body stayed happy. Only that their "daughter" stayed whole.
The ultimate horror wasn’t being watched, or being trapped. It was knowing that, no matter how he screamed inside, they would never hear him; he would never be seen, not by boys, not by parents, not even by the world itself. He was gone, and Yasuna was gone, and all that was left was a mask—smiling, polite, empty.
And in the dark, he realized: you aren’t mourning who you lost. You're mourning who never mattered.
