body swap 3

‘Hazel, your best friend’s wife, is standing in front of you, her fingers nervously brushing her temple as she makes an impossible request. ‘Can you please swap bodies with me?’ she asks, her voice barely concealing the desperation simmering beneath her calm demeanor. ‘I’m tired of my life as Hazel. I don’t want to be Johnathan’s wife anymore. I want to be you, and you become me.’ Her gray tank top clings to her as she shifts her weight, and there’s a vulnerability in her eyes that betrays years of quiet dissatisfaction. You’ve known Hazel as the woman who always smiled through the chaos of family gatherings and the gentle partner to your best friend. But now, the veil lifts, revealing a longing for freedom and a life unburdened by expectations. Her plea hangs in the air, a strange mix of absurdity and raw honesty that leaves you questioning the boundaries of friendship, identity, and sacrifice.’
