She is He

The Transition

How curses work, how curses end we have always seen them in fairy tales but this curse was different, it couldn't be broken with a kiss, with a declaration of love. It wasn't a curse of witch, curse of maleficent. I had no idea how it was going to change my life...

Kevin's POV

The look I saw on James's face after Maxxie left was something I was always afraid of, James looked blank, like there was nothing left to talk about, like the old James I knew when his mom left him, like the old James I knew when his father died. He was on the couch sitting alone staring on the blank walls, TV was on but he wasn't watching it. I could literally feet what was going inside his head, but I was afraid if he was going to hurt himself again, if he was going to drink again and spend his whole night alone on the roads. Whenever is James sad or broken either he drinks or he plays music but this time it was different. He was hiding his pain, his aggression, no things were thrown, no things were broken, no sound of his drums, no sound of his motorbike, it was just him staring on the blank walls. And then I gained some courage and asked him from the kitchen saying out loud...

"Food is ready James, will you come to the dining table or should I bring food for you on the couch?"

Because of the sound of television and his distracted mind lost in deep thoughts I felt like he didn't hear what I said, I went in the dining room, took the remote from the couch and turned off the Television and asked him again.

" James, dinner is ready--" and got interrupted by James before completing my sentence

"I will eat later I am going outside"

"Where?" I asked with wide-eyed, raised eyebrow expressions

"Don't wait for me" He said ignoring my question

"James, James don't go outside, don't you remember last time what happened to you?"

"But I am still alive Kevin" He said

He took his motorbike keys and left, the slam of the door as he exited shook the walls.

I could feel his aggression, his pain. I was afraid if he meets into an accident again like that day...

*Ringing sound of telephone from Flashback*

"Hello this is Kevin Forbes speaking"

"Hello there's an accident reported of James Miller" the person said

I could only hear those words and I ran towards the door, picked the car keys, and drove to the hospital. My hands were shivering while driving the car I was just hoping James to be safe and alive.

When I reached to the hospital, I saw him laid on the stretcher and he was unconscious. He had injuries. There were bruises all over his hands, his jeans were torn from the knees. His head and knees were bleeding. Because of the accident he remained in concussion for a long time and I didn't really want this to happen with him again but James never listens.

James's Pov

Maxxie's voice from flashback
"Everything you said, will comeback to you, it's my curse to you"

Her voice, Her words were spinning in my head. I couldn't get over of what she told me earlier, I don't know why but I was overthinking about every word she said.

James continued riding his motorbike and went to a bar near countryside's highway.

"Young boy!! you're back again?" the bartender said

Ricky Jordan, the bartender here was my friend too probably because him I am allowed to sit in this bar even if when I was underage.

"Yes!! aren't you used to it?" I said
