When Sara explained the situation to the family. There was a bit of commotion. Michael who had emerged from the bathroom, dressed in a pair of white shorts and a light brown top was upset. “Isn’t there another body I can have?”
“I’m sorry. But even if we had another body available it would be no good. You have to wait 12 hours between changes. You won’t be able to change again before tomorrow”
“This sucks” said the young brunette who used to be Andrew
“I agree” said Tina “I want Andrea’s body”
“So if we get this card does that mean we can go to the theme park straight away?” asked Kimmy
“Well you will always need to have an adult with you” Sara reminded her.
“Can we go swimming? It’s really hot” asked the small redheaded girl who used to be Brad. She had a big smile on her face. It appeared ‘Brenda’ wasn’t the least bit upset that she was now a girl
“How long are we actually booked in here for?” asked Michael
“I booked for 9 nights. I only had to pay for 5 and unlimited entry to the theme park is included”
“So if we get this ID I’m are locked into this Angela body for 9 days?” asked Michael
“Well not necessarily. Perhaps only when we want to go to the theme park. But I think we need someone to be Angela. I took 10 years of my age remember. I’m now too young to be Tina and Andrea’s mother, besides they look like you. I’ll have to be an Aunt”
“Don’t call me Andrea” said the young woman who had just struggled into her tight fitting jeans. She had also put on a singlet top which did nothing to hide her magnificent figure
“As long as you are in that body you can’t be Andrew. Choose another name if you like, but make it quick as the concierge will be back in a minute”
“Errgh! I suppose Andrea will do”
“Aren’t you hot in jeans?” Tina asked her now big sister
“What other option do I have? This girl didn’t pack any shorts”
“You would be much more comfortable in a skirt. We are in Hawaii. You have a great selection of skirts and dresses”
Sara concurred “Yes, I’ll be trying on some of those clothes from that suitcase. The only clothes I have is what I’m currently wearing. I hope I will be slim enough” Sara was very happy that she had thrown a change of clothes into her hand luggage. She wondered where her own suitcase had ended up.
“Perhaps you should get something from my suitcase Mom” suggested Tina. “I think this body is closer to your size”
Just then the concierge returned. He had a trolley containing what was needed to create ID for each of the guests.
Tina was first to volunteer. Within a couple of minutes the man had created an ID card for her. She gave her correct name of Tina Jamison. The ID card had a picture of her chubby redheaded face.
Next up were Kimmy and ‘Brenda’ also giving Jamison as their surname.
Michael was shamed into also getting a new ID. She told the man she was Angela Jamison, effectively locking her in to that identity for the duration of their hotel stay.
Reluctantly Andrew came forward and had her photo taken as well. She was very disconcerted by the way the hotel employee appeared to be checking her out. To everyone’s surprise, she gave her name as ‘Anastasia’ Jamison.
…………
When the man had finally left. Tina was quick to ask her sister “What’s with the name Anastasia? I thought you were going to be Andrea”
“It just seemed a classier name. If I’m going to be stuck as a girl at least I can choose my own name”
“I think Anastasia is a lovely name” said Sara.
They then sorted out beds. Initially Anastasia wanted to share with Brenda but Brenda wanted to share with Kimmy hence Anastasia was out voted. She ended up sharing with Tina. Sara and Angela would share the King bed in the master bedroom. Each took their suitcases to their rooms. Tina insisted on hanging up her own and Anastasia’s dresses. “These girls have really nice clothes. You will look fantastic in any of these”
“Urghh!” was Anastasia’s reply. She had just put the underwear from the suitcase into her side of the wardrobe. She did not want to admit to her sister that she was excited by the prospect of trying these items on
When they reassembled in the lounge. Sara asked “So what do we do now?”
“Can we go for a swim now? It’s so hot” suggested Brenda.
“Well let’s have a bit of a look around first. There are quite a few swimming areas. Let’s see which one looks nicest. Who’s coming?”
“I’ll stay” Anastasia quickly replied.
“I’ll stay as well” said Angela. “I need to get used to this body”
Sara looked at her former husband and her former older son. No doubt they were feeling embarrassed about now being females. She decided not to argue. “Okay then. We’ll check out the pools and dinner venues. I’ll make a booking somewhere for dinner at 7. Hopefully by then you will feel more comfortable. She left with Tina, Kimmy and Brenda in tow.
No sooner had the door closed that Anastasia declared. “It’s hot. I’m going to have a shower and cool down.
Angela suspected there were other reasons besides cooling down, why the young woman wanted to get naked. She understood and wanted to do the same. “Great idea. Good thing we have an ensuite”. The two new women disappeared into their respective bathrooms for a bit of self examination.
