yaksha - final

Sanjay wore the loosest t-shirt he could find and reached the airport right on time. While waiting near the boarding gate, using google maps, he planned a brief itinerary to reach Laxmanjulla as soon he lands on Dehradun, which is the closest airport to Rishikesh. 

Even sitting on the airplane seat felt slightly tighter for his large womanly hips.. he wondered how Anushka aunty managed all these years. The cab he booked was waiting for him at Dehradun airport. By around 11.45 he checked- in to a hotel, which is 5 min walk from Laxmanjulla bridge. After dropping his backpack in the room, he left for laxmanjulla.

Reaching the riverbed, he recited the spell to invoke the yaksha, that he found in that library book.

Moments later, he heard the same laughing sound of that yaksha. 

Yaksha - have you returned all this way to thank me, stupid human? Hahaha. You have chosen quite a figure for yourself.. I can see hahahaa. Now you can feel those curves whenever you want…hahaaa. Why have you summoned me now, what do you want?

Sanjay - I did’t come here to thank you, you monster. I never asked to be like this, you twisted my words. I wish to become normal. I can’t go out and live like this, with a woman’s midsection, I’m a man.You have to change me back to normal. I know, you have to grant whatever the person who invoked you asks, otherwise you’ll be cursed to be a stone again. I’m going to make my wish now. I wan..t.. t… 

Yaksha - stop human, you can only make one wish at a time. You made yours when you said “I wish to become normal”. Now I’m going to grant that for you.. so that, from now on, you can go out and live with this sexy woman’s midsection, I’m going to give you a body to match your curves…

Sanjay - wait.. waittttt.. that..s not what I wanttttt..

As Sanjay stood on the tranquil banks of the Ganges, an eerie sensation seized him, his muscles tensing involuntarily as his body began to contort. Panic surged within him as his sturdy frame softened and his shoulders narrowed. With each passing moment, he felt his chest tighten as his once-flat chest swelled, now adorned with massive breasts. His feet shifted and narrowed, toes delicately arching within his footwear. Internally, his organs rearranged themselves to accommodate his new form, a disconcerting sensation that left him breathless.

His hair, once short and cropped, cascaded down his back in long, flowing locks, a stark contrast to the masculine cut he had always worn. Even his height seemed to diminish slightly as he stood, now slightly shorter than before. And as the transformation neared completion, he felt his buttocks round and plump beneath the fabric of his altered cloth, a final confirmation of the profound change that had overtaken him.

Finally, as the last vestiges of his former self slipped away, Sanjay staggered backwards, his breath catching in his throat as he beheld his reflection in the rippling waters. Shock washed over him as he realised he was now a woman, her features delicate and refined, her body draped in a saree adorned with bangles, earrings, and intricate mehendi.

As she studied her reflection, she estimated her age to be around the mid-30s, her gaze fell upon the crimson sindoor adorning her forehead, in-between the hairline, a stark reminder of the marital commitment she now bore. That realisation sent a shiver down her spine.

Yaksha - you asked to be normal, and now are a very normal woman. Since I cannot take back the wishes I granted, you will still possess the curves of the women you first admired. But don’t worry, your body is now altered to match the curves you already had, that must explain why look older now.

The reality has now been changed and in this new reality, there is no Sanjay only Sanjana. You are now 36 years old, and happily married with 2 kids. You are still living with your mom, but not as her son, but as her sister.. hahaaaha ( evil smile ). 

Yaksha - one more final detail, that you might have missed while reading the book about me…., only a person who carries the seed of life can summon me. In simple terms, only a male can summon me, which now, you are not, so this will be our final meeting. The women’s reflection you saw on this holy river, will be the one you’ll take to your bed for the rest of your life. hahahahaaaa.. 

Sanjana standing alone on the riverbank of the Ganges, with a shocked reaction on her face after hearing everything the yaksha said. Suddenly she heard a little boy’s voice “Mom come on, the midnight puja is going to start, Dad is calling.” She somehow knew this boy. “Just a moment, Rithvik”, she said in a motherly tone, with a sense of extreme care towards him, She moved closer to him, picked him up over her hips, kissed him on his forehead and both walked together to the Shiv temple, next to the banks. As she looked back at the river, she saw the yaksha slowly fading away into the dark, along with him, vanishing the entire existence of her previous life of 21 years as a boy

The end..
