The Day I turned into a Girl (The Evil-Eye)
That day went by joyfully and calmly making me feel that this moment could last forever. But it wasn't possible as happy and sad moments both are part of the life and one day every moment will wither away. I slept that day peacefully completely forgetting about the thing which kept me awake the last night. Father woke me up in the morning inviting me to go play matches with him again. I was super duper excited to spend another wonderful day with him. But there was someone who was getting jealous of our bond "My Stepmom". And finally that day, someone casted evil eye on my happiness. That day not only us but my stepmother also went to the basketball court to follow us. We were so happy unaware of the danger waiting for us. The ground was filled with river of people, everyone chatting and laughing. There were only joyful faces as we headed towards the ground, I found a spot to play with my father. I indicated him the spot and after grabbing a ball, we both went to that spot and started playing with enthusiasm. Her father was also ace in basketball during his times. Though he was old and lost some strength in his arms, his skills were no joke and he was a tough competition. While playing, he started talking about the good old days when he used to win every match in his university and how he was so excellent that no one was able to beat him. He also mentioned that he was one of top 5 basketball player in his area and everyone considered him "God of Basketball". I chuckled after hearing such a immature title which made me distract a bit and made him think that he had the chance to win that point. But I dodged the ball making an illusion and in the end got the point. That group of boys were observing us from quite a long time and finally, a boy from their team approached us and offered me to play with their team and also mentioned how he was impressed by our skills. While he was introducing him,he gave me a card and also mentioned that he was a national player and appealed me to give auditions to be in their team. While I was taking that card with my eyes fixated on that card and nodding my head crazily with excitement. Suddenly a strong force hit my hand and made that card fall down on the ground. I looked up to see the person and found it was none other than Mimi's stepmother. I looked at my dad waiting him to say anything but he was silent didn't utter a single word and instantly when he saw tears in my eyes. He clenched his fist and looked down, her stepmother declined that boy's request and dragged me to her car demanding my father to follow along and was really enraged. We all went to home and before I could say anything, her stepmother shouted at me demanding me to go back to my room. I was quited down and while crying, I went to my room and grabbed my pillow while sniffling completely forgetting about who I was. I was just aware that her mother did something which wasn't expected and that I would never forgive her for what she did. While thinking, I suddenly realised that I was actually not Mimi and everything will be fixed after one week. So, I just have to stay in her body and after coming into my original body I can pursue my dream to be "the national's best basketball player". I wiped my tears and looked for the diary which Mimi used to keep in which she used to write everything- her normal daily conversations to her deepest secrets, everything.

AUTHOR'S NOTE -
So, our protagonist is again searching for information so he could adapt in Mimi's body but he is actually getting lost in her body mistaking it as his identity. Stay tuned guys.
