I was sitting on the couch feeling happy for the first time in a long time. I had put my hair in a bun and was now wearing lounging clothes, feeling really relaxed and feminine. I knew Steve was staring at me with a smile. My new body ached and wanted him more than anything in the world and I was looking forward to loving him later.
My mind was drifting towards thoughts of getting the imperfections fixed and embracing my new womanhood which was not in anyway as bad a trade as I thought,
My thoughts of my exciting new life were interrupted by David coming into the living room,‘Dad, I hate this, can I get my life back’ the words that left David’s mouth were surprising to Cathy,
‘How dare you, David, you wanted this, you wanted my body, my life and everything that goes along with it!’ I was angry, having been forced to adapt to being a woman and now hearing this ungrateful childish whine, made mu blood boil.
‘But, you’re not me, I want my original life and husband back’ the new David was getting upset and frustrated.
‘Oh but I am, I have memories, I have the body, I have MY husband to care for’ I started to smile as each word dripped out. I was going to tell David all about the plans to fix my body and life.
Steve watching this exchange, spoke before I could say anything, ‘David, you made it clear you were looking forward to being a man and made Cathy’s last few days as a man hell, you know what the doctor said, the switch cannot be reversed.’
David started to cry, ‘but he’s going to ruin my life and act like a man.’
I fixed my hair and looked at him with contempt. He’d forced me into this and now he was annoyed.
‘Listen, David, I am your mother. This switch has given me the life I now know, I deserve. A loving husband and the opportunity to have a mature existence. I did not ask for this but I am sure as hell, not giving it up now. I expect you to do the same or you’ll be looking for a new home, you’re 16 now.’ I felt every inch a woman and I loved it.
David motioned to speak but turned away,
Steve looked at me and said, ‘you’re perfect, let’s fuck’ I smiled and felt like the happiest woman a live.
