Except for the
menstrual annoyance, Felicia’s first weeks as a girl were quite pleasant. She
was learning a lot about being a girl, and she was spending a good deal of time
watching tutorials on Internet about everything he needed to learn, from makeup
and hair to hygiene and poise.
Though Ben had been
helpful and lent her a hand every time she needed one, he was quite busy these
days. He had never had a girlfriend before, so Annika was occupying most of his
time. In fact, since both of them were still going out alone a lot at this
stage, Felicia and Carina had started a close bond of their own, which had
started by the fact that the two of them were constantly poking fun at the new
love birds.
They were quite chatty
together, and Felicia enjoyed playing video games in Carina’s PlayStation, and
she had also started practicing her hair grooming skills with her older
roommate, who so far had enjoyed the results.
“I like it,” said
Carina after examining her hair in her dresser. “Are you going to try something
similar?”
“Uhm, maybe,” nodded
Felicia.
“You finally start
your classes tomorrow, don’t you?”
“Yes. I’m a bit
nervous.”
“Don’t be! I’m pretty
sure you’re going to do great. You’ll be a famous fashion designer in no time.”
Felicia wished she
could believe that, but the truth was she was planning for a future she didn’t
even knew if she would have. For all that she knew, she could wake up as a guy
any morning. And the thing was that she was so comfortable with who she was
now, that she wished it wouldn’t happen. Not to mention Ben, who was happier
than ever.
But, a week earlier,
there had been a development that had hinted towards the permanence of their
new genders. After days of pretending they couldn’t communicate properly with
their families, Ben and Felicia had finally gathered up the courage to speak to
them.
They had considered a
few options. At first they thought Ben should pretend to be the old Ben, who
had started getting buff after a few says at the gym, while Felicia pretended
to be the old Felicia after a radical make over. But even with her glasses,
Felicia didn’t look one bit like her cousin had, nor could Ben convincingly
portray the former one, no matter how baggy his clothes were.
So they had tried to
come out with the truth. At least until their parents didn’t seem to notice
anything abnormal with them. Old Ben’s parents appeared convinced that they
always had a pretty daughter named Felicia, while the opposite happened with
the other family, who were quite proud of their athletic boy.
“It’s so weird,” said
Ben the next time he saw his cousin. “My father even asked me how I was doing
with girls. He was very satisfied when I told him about Annika.”
“Yeah, and my parents
are so sweet with me now, and they approve of their daughter becoming a fashionista.”
This had made
everything easier to accept, and harder to think it could end. Which was why
they had decided to make the most of their current situation.
Felicia had fully
accepted her femininity. She had started dressing in the more girly things her
wardrobe had to offer, and in fact she decided that was the first impression
she wanted to give once she started at her new school.
She picked up a long
sleeved white blouse and one of her many tight sweaters, a gray one. She also
had leggings and a plaid skirt, along with high pumps.
“You look so adorable”
said both of her roommates when they saw her next morning. Felicia smiled,
silently agreeing. The fact that she hadn’t been born in this body, gave her a
better appreciation of it than she would otherwise have, so there was no need
for self-modesty. She knew she was looking very attractive, and loved the way
that her round breasts looked inside tight clothing.
Felicia’s first day as
a fashion student was everything she always dreamed it would be. The classes
seemed really cool and her classmates, almost all of them girls and some very
pretty, were mostly pleasant. In her new skin, she found it much easier to be
sociable, and indeed she gave an approachable vibe that made her immediately
popular among her peers, something that had never happened to her when she was
Ben. In the short break between classes, she already had exchanged phone
numbers with most of her classmates.
If life as a girl was
going to have these perks, she was sure she could withstand the monthly displeasure.
Sounds like all the loose ends are just about tied up. I'm guessing the next part will be the last one.
ReplyDeleteIt SHOULD be the last one, but I don't think it will.
