Matthew hadn't actually given in. She conceded to go to breakfast as a female - anything to stop the constant cramping in her arms which happened when Matthew vocalised 'I want to be male again and I won't go anywhere until you help me take you off'
The cramps only stopped when Matthew said out loud 'Please stop Kim! Okay! I will dress and go to breakfast as you. Then we can talk rationally about the rest of the day. But please stop! It hurts a lot!'
Reluctantly Matthew then followed Kim's commands and found herself getting dressed in same white dress (with roses on it) that Matthew had worn when she had first toured the resort the previous afternoon.
So as "Kim", Mathew attended breakfast, trying to ignore the glances of males as she sat alone to dine. As an act of defiance, Matthew filled her plate with with sweet, fatty foods, things the real Kim would usually avoid, only to find her appetite had decreased and 2 donuts was more than enough. It probably didn't help that Matthew was eating hurriedly as she had still not given up hope that Kim would relent and allow Matthew to attend the snorkelling trip as his male self.
However as soon as Matthew was back in the unit and Matthew tried to argue with Kim 'It's not fair! You know I wanted to go on this trip!'
In reply she felt a single cramp in her right arm.
'So you agree that you are not being fair?' 3 cramps
'You think you are being fair?' one cramp.
'But you are not letting me go on the trip' 3 cramps.
'I'm confused. Let me get this right. Are you saying I can go on the trip?' one cramp
'But I have to go as you?' one cramp
'If I refuse to go as you what will we do?' Constant painful cramps.
'Okay! Stop! I got your point! I have to go as you or you will make my day unbearable' One mild cramp
Matthew gave in and under Kim's direction collected various items including Kim's blue swimsuit, her hat, sunglasses and beach towel placing them in Kim's blue striped beach bag. Before hurrying off to the wharf.
