Revenge of the Mommies

My household has been blissfully quiet lately, a change for
my sanity. Joe, my husband has been more attentive to my
wants and needs, as well as for our children's wants and
needs. Joe has always been there for our two daughters and
me, but does tend to ignore Carroll, our only son. I try to
help Carroll, and support him in his endeavors as I do for
all of our children. He has the potential to become a
gifted chemist.
Carroll, the second oldest at age seventeen is slight for
his age, and not what you would call masculine, though he
is handsome. However, his father is very masculine and
athletic, but Joe has a face only I could love. Joe is as
bald as a vulture, yet Carroll has long, thick brunette
hair like mine. His father and I both gave him his dark
eyes and olive skin. All of the kids shared in their great
looks from me I would assume. I am the quintessential
example of the very proud mother.
It was not always peaceful in our home. In fact, it was a
war zone. Patricia and Lisa always degraded Carroll, often
making him cry. It has always been Joe's way to be always
taking the girls' side in every argument with me in the
middle of the foray.
This was a sore spot with me that caused Joe to sleep many
nights on the couch in the family room or the den. It also
hurt me deeply that we had to argue about the kids or get
involved in their petty arguments.
In fact it was so bad that two years ago we sent Patricia
and Lisa to a private school. In order to send them to that
school, and to help in the expenses I had returned back to
work as an administrative assistant in a physician's
office. My workdays were long and tiring, but we needed the
extra money, and I needed my sanity returned to me. Besides
I wanted my husband's loving.
The months flew by without any problems. Even the summer
was grand for our entire family. I was at peace with the
world until one Friday I came home early from work. I was
to start a four-day weekend, as I had to use my
compensatory time I had accrued. I had to use it or lose
it, or so they say.
I went into the house from the attached garage taking my
shoes off as I entered the house. Oh, that felt so good to
my feet and me. I briefly massaged them to get the feeling
back and the blood flowing again. That was when I heard the
unmistakable sounds of two people making love. I always
thought that I was loud in bed but the noises I heard could
start an avalanche in the nearest snow covered mountain
range. That was over 500 miles away.
The noises seemed to originate from the family room. My
curiosity was increased. Ever so slowly and quietly, I
crept toward the sounds of lust. My curiosity conquered my
common sense. I knew my girls were not home as they were
both in school. My mind focused on Joe and Carroll.
If Joe were cheating, I would kill him. I'd cut it off! If
it were Carroll, I would ground him for life. My anger was
at its peak! I had fire in my eyes and smoke came from my
ears.
Ever so slowly, I made my way through the dining room and
living room to eventually come to the sunken family room.
What I saw shocked me to my very core.
There were two people making love on my couch. ON MY COUCH!
How dare they! The boy was Carroll's best friend, and our
neighbor, Alex. The girl had her legs up very high and had
them wrapped around Alex receiving him. She seemed to be
enjoying every thrust Alex made as she sounded close to
climax, asking for more. I saw her hips move in time with
his rhythm rocking motion and enjoying her receivership. I
continued to watch in shock that this was being done in my
house. This was my house and not some lover's lane! There
were no submarine races here! HOW DARE THEY!
Finally, they both climaxed. I watched intently as they
kissed and held each other lovingly to share their ending
to their sexual romp. I am not a voyeur, and not into that
type of activity, I was very offended and thoroughly
pissed. This boy wasn't even my child! This is MY house, MY
home!
I had to admit that Alex was a God in his own right. He was
the opposite of Carroll, tall, muscular, and now very dead.
He was going to get his comeuppance and so was his little
harlot girlfriend. The audacity of those kids! When I was
through with him, I'll give him to his mother!
"Ummmmm... Excuse me for interrupting your roll in the hay
or shall I say, on my couch." I said softly and calmly but
sarcastically.
Alex was up from the couch in a burst of speed grabbing his
pants first, followed by his girlfriend that stood behind
him trembling in fear from being caught. I saw her re-
buttoning and pulling her clothes to some similarity of
order. I felt sorry for them but they had used my house and
my couch for their assignation. Their asses were mine!
"Sweetheart, please stand next to Alex and take your
medicine as a woman should." I said in a no nonsense tone
of voice.
Slowly she moved to Alex's side. I assumed she was very
pretty as she stood wearing my hot pink suit, white satin
jabot blouse, tan hose and my hot pink open-toed four-inch
sling-back pumps. Her head was lowered with her hair
braided as she stood. I saw that all the jewelry she wore
was mine too. The audacity of this little trollop! I was
betting she was wearing my underwear too! However, without
looking at her face she had a very nice body. Nevertheless,
she was wearing my clothes! My clothes damn it!
"Alex, get dressed please. Young lady, go use the powder
room, clean yourself up and repair your makeup. Do not
leave a love trail either, missy."
Since there was no bath in the family room, she had to pass
me. Ever so slowly, she walked toward me after retrieving
her... MY pink-laced panties from the floor. I noticed she
was very graceful in her mannerisms and the fluidity of her
walk. I wished my daughters where as graceful as this girl
was. She also looked very familiar. Suddenly the light went
on in my brain. OhMyGod! It was Carroll! My son! I said
nothing as Carroll passed me going to the powder room. I
was speechless! I was angry! I was so confused! What the
hell was going on with my son?
"Darling, get cleaned up, leave your clothes on and come
back here." I said when she or he passed me.
"Alex please sit and wait for Carroll to return." I said.
"Ah... you recognized her, huh?"
I nodded that I did before I went quickly to the telephone
and called Phyllis, Alex's mother and my closest friend.
"Phyllis, could you please come over? We have a slight
problem, more like a situation."
All she said was that she would be right over and hung up.
When I had returned, both Carroll and Alex were seated on
the couch they had both christened in their throws of
passion. They sat very close to each other and Alex had his
arm around Carroll's shoulder, protectively. Alex was the
boyfriend protecting and reassuring his girlfriend. Carroll
was still shaking nervously.
"Ah... mother, can we talk please." Carroll said sounding
just like my other daughters did.
My Lord she sounded like them too but looked more like me.
I heard the door open with Phyllis saying, "Judy what's
wrong? Are the boys alright?"
"Come to the family room and yes the kids are fine." I
yelled out.
"If they're okay then why... Oh, shit! Since when did you
have a third daughter?" She asked surprised looking
directly at Carroll.
I then explained what I had seen when I had come home,
neither of us had looks of disgust, but we were
dumbfounded.
Carroll and Alex had been friends for many years all
through Grammar School and now High School. Never once had
we thought that they might be gay or questioned their
association.
As I said there was never any indication they were gay
during all those years. I had seen many persons in the
stages of transition over the years working in a doctor's
office. Was it possible that Carroll needed it? I had never
realized my son wanted to become my daughter. It tore me
apart the he or she was what was referred to as
transgendered.
"Okay so tell us. We want to hear it all and we want the
truth." I said
"This better be good!" Phyllis said.
"Ah... mom... Alex... and I... are lovers. We've loved each
other for years. We decided to be with each other for all
our lives." Carroll said after relaxing a bit.
"Personally I think you are too young to make that
decision. Okay, are you saying to us you've both done this
before? But why my clothes?"
"We're not too young and yes mother we have. I've been
wearing your clothes for several years. Patricia and Lisa's
clothes are either too tomboyish, slutty, or too tight. I
want to be just like you, mom. I want it all, love, dating,
boyfriend, husband, children, sex, everything." Carroll
said on the verge of tears. Her anguish and determination
was very evident.
"Well that explains a great deal. I've been blaming your
sisters for wearing my clothes and using my makeup. I
should be flattered but... Carroll, I just don't know. How
do I tell your father? What about your sisters? How about
the family?" I said confused.
"Alex what do you have to say? We've heard Carroll, now
what about you?" Phyllis said calmly.
"Mom, we do love each other and always have. I think that
Carroll has said it all." Alex said.
"Have either of you given any thought as to the attitudes
of the people you go to school with or some of the bigots
in this town? How about our feelings?" Phyllis said.
"Most of our close friends know and respect us. The ones
that don't know might not suspect. I think that most of the
school knows or suspects.
Carroll was attacked once, but the football team and some
others came to her aid. We're sorry for what we did, I
guess we thought we would never get caught."
"So when were you going to spring this on us? It seems
everyone knows but us, your parents. Carroll I'm
disappointed I always thought we could speak about
anything. I am your mother after all." I said.
"Mother, we were going to tell you but... I wasn't ashamed
or embarrassed... I was frightened." Carroll said.
"Frightened, of me? Of your father?" I asked.
"Of both daddy and my sisters, but I know both Patty and
Lisa know about us. They don't like hearing about Alex and
me. I know that you and daddy have no secrets, so I would
be dead meat."
"Mom, I do love Carroll and she loves me." Alex said.
We were at a loss for words. I didn't know what to say. My
daughters are bigots? My son's transgendered? It would seem
that everyone knows of these two but their parents don't.
"Alex, please go home and wait for your mother. Carroll,
please wait here for me to call you. We need to talk more.
Phyllis and I need to talk first before we speak to you and
your fathers."
Alex went home after kissing Carroll in front of us.
Phyllis and I went to the kitchen to discuss this matter
further between us. Carroll stayed in the family room and
sweated for my return or to be called.
"Did you watch those two? They were no different then us in
our younger days. The only thing missing was the back seat
of a car or a blanket on the grass." Phyllis said.
"Yeah, but those are two boys. My son is wearing my clothes
and was being made love to by your son. How do I tell Joe?"
I said as I buried my head into my hands.
"Judy, I know it was a shock, this is a situation that we
must all be calm, patient, coherent and collective. Carroll
is beautiful. She looks just like you. Carroll needs to
find herself, as we all had to do. I think you should get
her cleaned up and present her to Joe. Perhaps give her a
taste of what it's like to be a woman. Don't treat her as a
girl but as a young woman.
Why don't you have Carroll work with you at the office
after school? Alex normally has to help at my parent's
hardware store, so that will keep him busy." Phyllis said
after pouring us both some coffee.
As I drank the coffee, I mulled over what Phyllis said.
That would possibly work. Perhaps, if Carroll were treated
as a woman, she might revert to my loving son. No matter
what the outcome, Carroll was my child and I loved Carroll.
"Will you help me? I'll arrange it with the school and if
she is serious about her status, I know my boss, Dr.
Terris, will help her too."
"Sure, I'll help and I think she is more serious than we
might think." Phyllis said as she took my hand into hers to
reassure me.
"Carroll, please come into the kitchen." I yelled.
I heard the soft, short footsteps falling upon the rug and
then the familiar sounds that high heels make on the
hardwood floors. My Lord, her footsteps sounded so soft and
feminine, I thought. Carroll entered the room and stood in
the doorway nervously.
"Sweetheart, pour yourself a cup of coffee, or get a cola,
and join us please." I said.
Phyllis and I watched Carroll closely as she walked to
where the coffeepot was, pouring the hot liquid into a cup
and came to the table. She placed the cup down on the
table, withdrew the chair and sat making sure her skirt was
tucked under her. She then placed her hands into her lap.
By every action I saw, it was me or should I say it was a
woman and not a faux woman or gay impersonator. Oh Lord, I
have a third daughter!
"Carroll, before I have words with your father, I need some
answers. Okay?"
Carroll nodded her head to signify yes.
"If given the chance to be a woman would you? That means
not sexually but dress, school, home, work and family
responsibilities." I asked.
"Oh yesssss, mother. I would even have the surgery to
fulfill my dream today. Work? Yes if I had a job." Carroll
said excitedly.
"How do you feel the kids in school will react to you?"
"Mother I have been going through hell for years at home
and school. I've always felt I was a girl and never a boy.
When you dressed up my sisters, I always wished I were
included.
Do you remember when I was six? I was at home due to a very
bad cold and fever. I asked if nature ever made mistakes
when making boys and girls. You said it was possible. Well
mother, I am that mistake. I wanted dolls instead of
trucks. I wanted dresses instead of suits. I wanted to be
pretty. I wanted my hair styled and set. I wanted
everything feminine! I would rather die then to be a boy! I
have even thought heavily of that alternative." Carroll
said through her tears.
I was once again in shock to Carroll's words. My child
confessed she would rather commit suicide then to remain
male! Why didn't I watch my children closer as they grew?
How do I protect my child? What were the warning signs?
Carroll is a she and not a he. She is transgendered!
This was the happiest I had seen Carroll in such a long
time. She was at peace with herself, happy and confident,
as a young woman should be at her age. I could not let her
suffer as she had been doing.
"Okay, here are the rules dear. You will be reregistered at
school, after you see Dr. Terris, as a girl. No boys in the
house, not even Alex unless an adult is present. Curfew is
at 10pm on weekdays and midnight on Friday and Saturday
nights. You are to tell us where you are going and with
whom. No single dates and no car dates.
You will maintain your grades in school, and work with me
in the office after school. The school will be advised that
you have a job in my office with me. You will wear proper
business attire at school and the office that includes
suits, hose and heels. You will be feminine at all times!
You will help me with all household chores including
cooking, cleaning, laundry, and shopping. You may dress
casually while at home.
Above all, you will abstain from all sexual activity. You
will conduct yourself as a young woman at all times. You
will also address Phyllis and George as Mother Phyllis and
Father George.
Are we clear on all items?"
"But Alex?"
"No buts, do you agree?"
"Yes mother, I do."
"Okay dear. I want you to go cleanup yourself by taking a
bath in my bedroom. Place the suit you're wearing into the
dry cleaning bag and your undergarments into the laundry.
Call me when you're ready to get dressed.
By the way, you look beautiful. Your hair, makeup, clothes
and mannerisms are perfect." I said as I kissed Carroll on
her cheek.
She quickly exited the room going to my room to do as she
was told. I smiled at Phyllis but I was still confused. Did
I do the right thing for Carroll? I had to call Dr. Terris.
"That was the hardest thing I have ever done, Phyllis. I
feel as if I killed my son. I have to call Dr. Terris and I
still have to tell Joe. I'm so drained of all my emotions.
I almost lost it when I saw it was Carroll with Alex. I had
to remain calm but now I just don't know if this is the
right thing I did."
"Hon, What could you do, rant and rave like an unstable
woman? What you did was legitimate in my eyes. Otherwise
you might have had a dead child on your conscience.
I have to go and deal with Alex and George yet. Oh fun
times are coming. I have to tell George and our parents
just as you have to do. Oh Lord, in-laws!"
"Thanks! I'll be an in-law if our kids do what they're
planning. Sure, and I have two daughters to tell yet along
with everything else."
"Sorry but you're more like a sister."
"Now that's a complement I can handle."
Phyllis and I spoke more until Carroll yelled to me that
she was ready.
Phyllis and I hugged as she left to attend to the matters
at her house. I slowly walked to Joe and my room to be
greeted by Carroll wrapped in a towel around her body and
one wrapped around her hair. It was then that I noticed the
two outlined bumps on her chest. She also had a small
waist, large hips and the rounded butt of a young woman.
Her legs were gorgeous as she stood waiting. I was
speechless as I surveyed her covered body. OhMyGod! Carroll
was more a woman than I imagined, unless the towel was a
deception. I think she is very serious about being a woman,
my intuition screamed at me.
I went and retrieved the necessary lingerie for my daughter
from my dresser.
"Okay dear, drop the towel." I said as I handed her a pair
of black high cut satin panties.
When the towel fell I almost fainted. Carroll did have
breasts and an hourglass figure just as the towel
suggested. No wonder she wore my bras, as her breasts were
as large as mine and I wear a 36C. I handed her a black
strapless bra and half-slip after putting the other bra I
held, back into the drawer. I gave her a black lace garter
belt and black stockings that she put on like any normal
experienced woman would. I couldn't believe the size of her
almost nonexistent penis or the soft and silky smooth skin.
Her pubic hair was trimmed and looked like mine. I saw no
hair anywhere on her body that didn't belong.
I located my favorite black patent strap sandals with a
three-inch spike heel. She had those on very quickly after
attaching the ankle straps. She gracefully moved and walked
easily in the shoes about the room.
Where was I when all these changes occurred? How did she
manage to hide all the changes to her body? How did she
change her body? My son is no longer. He is and will
forever be a she. I was close to crying that I really had
lost my loving son for good. I had the denial, I had the
sense of loss and now I have acceptance, the acceptance of
my daughter.
I had her sit at my makeup table and watched as she applied
the very same makeup that I used only for the evening. Her
eyebrows are thinned, formed and arched! When? I only had
to correct her once when she almost applied too much
blusher. I was amazed as Carroll began to look as I did
when I was a teenager. I needed to remain calm although my
heart was beating very fast by all of these surprises.
I went to my closet and selected her dress for the evening
as she did her hair in a very elegant braid. I handed her
the black sleek sleeveless dress. The dress accentuated her
breasts, waist and womanly hips as the zipper closed her
inside the soft, luxurious fabric. The hem was where I wore
it, at three inches above the knee. There was no doubt as
to her womanly attributes as she stood proudly before me
smiling.
I gave her my matching gold and black onyx jewelry. I
watched as she placed the heavy leaf shaped earrings into
the holes in her ears. When did she pierce her ears? She
placed the necklace around her neck and adjusted the
pendant that hung one inch above her cleavage. If you saw
her pendant, you saw her cleavage. Your eyes were brought
directly there to that area.
I handed her a gold serpentine anklet that she placed onto
her femininely sculpted ankle. I noticed that she had long
delicate fingers and dainty hands. Her fingers were
perfectly manicured with her nails extending a quarter of
an inch past her fingertips with perfectly polished nails
in a deep reddish burgundy. I then noticed her pedicured
toes also matched. How could I have missed those long
nails? Fingernails polished and manicured? The polished
toes? Were those fingernails her own?
I went to my closet and brought her my favorite beaded
shoulder wrap, black opera length gloves and my beaded
evening bag. She did her lips with a lipstick that matched
her polish. Then she placed my gold watch onto her wrist
that I handed her. I gave her two antique gold, diamond and
onyx rings for each hand. Her father and my husband gave
those rings to me. I helped her to put on the gloves
drawing them past her elbow and placed a matching bracelet
onto her wrist. She placed her wrap around her shoulders
and took the purse I gave her.
I stood back to look at her. She was perfect as she stood
before me. This was how all my girls should look, I thought
smiling at Carroll. Inwardly I wondered where I had been
during all her changes. I saw the pride in her eyes as she
checked herself once more in the mirror. Her body screamed
woman as I saw her reflection. Her breasts heaved with
every breath of life. There was no doubt that she was
indeed a woman and had a woman's soul.
"Go wait in the family room for me. I need to get ready
too." I said as she hugged me to her.
Carroll had left my bedroom sprightly and I went into the
bath grabbing the phone on the way in. I started the water
running and dialed Joe's office number. I dreaded this
phone call I was making to him.
Within seconds, I heard his voice. I was mortified in
telling him what I had walked into. He was strangely silent
as I described Carroll and Alex's reactions to the
questioning both Phyllis and I had done as well as
Carroll's new emplacement in our household and her rules
she was to obey.
"I'll leave for home right now. My son's a faggot? I'll
beat it out of him!" He said angrily.
I told him no, that I would handle the situation as beating
our child was not the way to handle the matter. I explained
that Carroll was not gay, but transgendered. I explained
what Carroll's body looked like when I saw it. Joe was
silent. I told him further that I had decided to call our
parents to meet us at our favorite Italian restaurant,
Martini's.
We all needed to talk to find a solution without any
arguing. Joe agreed with my idea and suggested that Alex,
Phyllis and George join us. I couldn't believe he was being
rational as we spoke. He kept his hot-blooded, Sicilian
temper in check. This was the man I loved and married. We
said our good-bys and sent our love to each other.
The next calls were to Phyllis and our parents. Phyllis had
called George and received the same reaction as I received
from Joe. George normally remained calm in any situation
but this time he was angry. He was angry with himself for
not making sure his son remained a man.
I told her how sagacious Joe had become when I told him I
was calling a family meeting at Martini's. It suddenly
occurred to us both that we should have both families
there. After all, the entire situation affected both
families' futures.
My next telephone calls were to my mother and mother-in-law
on three way calling. I explained we needed a family
conference without getting into all the details. They
weren't happy, but said they would all be at the
restaurant.
My next call was to my boss, Dr. Margie Terris. She heard
the strained nature in my voice and began pressing me to
tell her all. She listened and I cried as I told her
everything about my son that was now my daughter. I was
asked to bring Carroll to the office on Saturday for a
complete physical. I was told to be at the office at 1 pm,
as no one would be there except us.
Martini's restaurant was the last call I made. I placed the
reservation and asked us to be situated in an area as
private as possible. I was assured they had several rooms
available that were indeed private for a party of our size.
Between the bath and getting all the arrangements made, I
was able to eliminate some of the tension I had. I was
still somewhat apprehensive when Joe came home. I had to be
dressed and ready to keep him separated from Carroll until
we left for the restaurant.
I was dressed and totally ready an hour before Joe would be
home. I went to my daughter waiting in the family room.
"Oh mother, you look beautiful." Carroll said as I waked
into the room.
I wore almost the exact same dress, as Carroll except my
dress was heavily glass beaded and three quartered sleeves
with matching beaded four-inch pumps.
This brought a smile to my face as I gazed at my gorgeous
daughter. It wasn't hard to think of Carroll as my daughter
and not of my son dressed as she was. As I had said before,
my son was gone forever at Carroll's hand. I had to
celebrate her birth and mourn my son's death. Was I sad?
What mother wouldn't be? I was sad that my husband's family
name of Florentino would not be passed on. I was sad that
there was going to be sorrow and quite possibly anger
tonight. I was sad our two other daughters might not accept
Carroll as she is.
"You can borrow it sometime. Carroll, we need to be honest
with each other. Remember I saw your naked body? Just
how... did you hide it from us? From me? How was it
possible? I saw you everyday."
"Mother, it wasn't easy at times. I always have worn baggy
clothes and I learned to hide my breasts somewhat. I always
prayed you wouldn't notice the bulges on my chest, my waist
or my hips. In gym, we always wore our own clothes. I'm
positive the teachers knew.
At home, Patty was the first to notice the changes. We
seemed to get closer when I told her everything. Next Lisa
saw a difference in my moods, which she told Patty about.
It was history after that. We decided that we had to
maintain our normal sibling rivalry as to not make you and
daddy suspicious. We did things later as sisters do,
including dating and sharing clothes." Carroll said.
"Dating, Sharing clothes? Okay, but the breasts, waist,
hips and skin?" I said amazed to her candor as she
continued.
"I was walking from school when I saw the pharmacist at the
clinic carry out a large box. I was I think thirteen years
old at the time. I thought the box might contain chemicals
I would be able to use in my garage lab. This clinic was a
prime source for some of my chemicals like ether and other
chemicals. Since the dumpster was full, the large box was
placed on the lid.
"I took the entire large box and the prized contents home.
I began to unpack the contents. On seeing boxes of vials of
estradiol in an oil suspension, boxes of packaged birth
control pills and contraceptive products, I felt my dream
was near. The shelf lives of all the products were several
years away so I began to write down the various names that
were on the packages and stored them away until I found out
more information.
"For the next few weeks, I did the research here at home
and on the Internet at the library. I used the Physician's
Desk Reference and Pharmacopoeia. I had learned much as how
to concoct my own hormone cocktails and the variations that
are used for transsexuals. I had even managed to get the
syringes legally through the mail, which you might have
signed for.
"I found the dosages and had all the meds I needed to
complete my transformation. I was prepared to accept my
womanhood with open arms. I found out that since I had not
yet experienced male puberty that I would experience female
puberty. This overjoyed me until my body started to change.
I continually worried that you or mother Phyllis would
notice these changes. Patty and Lisa were the first as I
said."
Four years it had been since my son died and my daughter
was born. FOUR YEARS! I was angered that Carroll had not
disclosed her true feelings, and what she had been doing. I
felt deprived in not seeing my daughter flowering. I was
angered at the deceptions. I was angered that Joe and I
sent our kids away to school to keep peace.
I heard the garage door open with heavy footsteps
following. I ran to greet my husband before he saw and met
our new daughter.
I kissed him first and said, "Darling I laid out your suit
and everything else you need. Take a hot shower and relax.
I love you, dear."
"Lord, you look beautiful. Let's go to bed. That will relax
the both of us." Joe said wrapping me into his arms. I felt
safe and recharged as he kissed me.
I had to pull away as he was making a shambles of me.
"Get going. We have to meet everyone at Martini's in two
hours."
"Sorry, I forgot about the other matter after seeing you.
Are you okay?"
"Sure, as well as could be expected. Now get going! We'll
all talk later after you've bathed and changed."
I smiled as he lightened his steps walking to our bedroom.
For the briefest moment he peered into the family room and
continued on his way shaking his head.
I went back and motioned Carroll to come with me. Once
again, I heard her very feminine steps following me to the
kitchen. I compared her steps to the steps of my other
daughters and myself. Those steps were so light and airy,
similar to professional dancers. In fact, Carroll had the
lithe body to be a dancer.
We sat at the kitchen table while we waited for Joe. We
sipped our coffee in silence as I thought of what was to
come at the restaurant. My thoughts were interrupted by the
Telephone. It was Phyllis calling.
"Good you're alive! I saw Joe's face as he put the car
away."
"I can't really talk." I said.
"Carroll is there, huh?"
"Yep. And all ears too."
"I called to let you know that George has arranged vehicle
transportation for everyone. We're all going in the same
car. After dinner, he managed to make reservations at the
comedy club to see the show."
"I don't know about the show but the cars are okay," I
whispered.
"I already called your moms and told them. Wow, was
everyone angry but I managed to calm everyone down."
I stretched the phone cord into the dining room out of the
earshot of Carroll saying, "Phyllis I almost choked when I
saw the towel around Carroll. I thought I saw boobs. I died
when she dropped the towel. She did have boobs, no waist,
wide hips and a very round butt. She was the carbon copy of
me when I was her age. She even has my breast size! Her
penis is almost gone!"
"Hhow? Wwhhen?" she stuttered.
"The past four years with hormones."
"Crap! How are you going to tell the Italian Stallion?"
"Very carefully, he's in the shower now."
"Good luck Hon. Should I call the mortuary now?"
"Only when you hear my screams. Oh, oh, here he comes now.
If we live I'll see you later." I said as I went back to
the kitchen and hung up the phone.
"Okay where are you two?" Joe shouted.
"In the kitchen dear." I purred as I went back to my chair
quickly.
I heard his heavy exaggerated footsteps of feigned anger as
he came closer. When Joe was angry he always walked heavy.
Carroll started to shake until I took her hand into mine to
calm her fears. Joe could be very intimidating in his voice
and manner.
I watched as he entered the doorway seeing the both of us
seated. His eyes went wide with astonishment and then
narrowed taking all of Carroll carefully into his eyes.
"Carroll, please stand."
Carroll stood up very slowly still holding my hand.
"Release your mother's hand and please turn around slowly."
I thought Carroll was going to faint from fright as she did
as her father said.
"Please walk to the back door and then to me."
As Carroll walked, I heard Joe say 'Mama Mia and a
Ma'ronne'. That could be bad or it could be a good sign.
"You know Judy, she has your mesmerizing walk. Carroll
could be your teenage twin."
I guess we live! I was frightened Joe would lose it. I
still haven't told him everything yet. Maybe I should call
that mortuary?
"Carroll, why? And with Alex?" Joe asked softly.
Carroll almost lost it and was near to crying as she
explained to her father what she told me. I had to
interject things as she told her story.
I saw Joe's face soften from the hardness it had when he
entered the kitchen. I saw the concern and the tears when
Carroll stressed the word suicide. Joe softened more to his
new daughter. We wouldn't need that mortician after all I
thought.
"Carroll please step in front of me. Don't be afraid,
girl."
Girl? Now I knew all was going to be fine. Carroll stopped
a few inches from Joe and took her hand into his.
"Carroll, you have no idea how angry I was when your mother
called. When I saw you, I was, to be honest, in a traumatic
effect. I assume those are real?" Joe said pointing to
Carroll's breasts and looking at me.
I nodded yes to him.
"Are you a stupid, a chooch, to do that to your body?
Sweetheart it's your body now for all your life now. Oh
well, it's done now, no use getting excited."
Joe pulled Carroll closer and gave her a kiss on the cheek.
I saw that the fear Carroll had was gone as Joe held our
daughter to him.
"C'mon sweetie, let's go fix our makeup. Let daddy get
something to drink that's preferably non alcoholic." I said
giving him a wink as I took Carroll's hand.
Entering the bedroom, Carroll sat at my makeup table and
removed the makeup she had on and reapplied it. This time
she impressed me further in her expertise of the art.
"Mother, it's not over yet is it?"
How could I lie?
"Not at all dear. All the grandparents will be at the
restaurant. So you better be as feminine as possible. The
magnifying glasses will be out watching your every move."
Carroll was close to tears again. I had to reassure her
that all would be well as I hugged her. Her father and I
would be there for her protection.
"Do they know what Alex... and I did?"
"They will know after they see you. As for your sexual
romp, no. I wasn't going to tell them about that, unless
you want me to do so."
'Ah... I don't think so, not unless there's an ambulance
outside to take me to the hospital." Carroll said smiling.
She even had my smile and humor, I thought as I packed a
small makeup kit to take with us.
We went back to the kitchen laughing and giggling all the
way.
"Phyllis called and said the car was here. What car?"
I told Joe about the car, he agreed that that was best, as
the parking was bad in that area of the city. I didn't say
anything about the comedy club.
Joe took our arms after we picked up our purses from the
table. He gently steered us to the front door and out.
George had shocked us all by hiring a limousine for the
night. I saw the look of disbelief on George's face as he
saw Carroll. Alex wore the biggest smile I had ever seen
him have. Gradually George began to smile as we came closer
to him and Alex.
"I take it this is the Carroll that I am to meet tonight?"
"Yes George, and our new daughter," I said.
"She does take after you Judy, and not at all like that ape
next to you," George said smiling after hugging us all.
We quickly entered the very large limousine. Phyllis and I
watched closely as Carroll entered the vehicle, as a young
lady should by not giving a thrill to anyone watching her.
We were once again impressed.
Alex sat next to Carroll in the main back seat. Joe sat
next to me on the right side seat, while George and Phyllis
sat together on the left and across from us. The silence
was stifling as we rode. It was as if no one wanted to
offend anyone else.
"Father George, thank you for the car tonight." Carroll
said sweetly.
"Carroll, you are welcome. I have to say I was amazed into
this transformation from caterpillar to butterfly by you. I
was not pleased as to how it had happened that we found
out. We would have preferred that you both would have
spoken to us as the young adults you are. The both of you
have always been close to each other but today you took
that closeness to new heights in the sharing of your
bodies. Whether it was love or lust, it was still an
unacceptable action of today's mores. We weren't pleased
but we respect your wishes to be fulfilled. Alex was told
about your new rules and we agree, as his are similar."
"Dad, please we've heard it all this after..."
"Alex, this is nothing compared to what all the
grandparents will say. This will be beyond their
comprehension as to the gender games and the sexual
escapades." Joe said softly.
"Look, we're almost there. We know the kids did wrong and
they know it. We have to support them both without scaring
the hell out of them. They made their own choices. They are
both beautifully dressed and mannered, which will please
them all," I said calmly.
"And they make a cute couple too," Phyllis said giggling.
The ice was broken as we manage to speak of other matters
as the car arrived at the restaurant. As I got out of the
car, I saw two other identical limousines parked nearby. I
knew they were all here and waiting. I noticed how we all
became nervous together. Ah, nothing like group fear to
make you all become closer together.
We entered the restaurant and identified our party. We were
led to the private room. I now thought that I knew what a
condemned prisoner feels when escorted to his or her death.
I felt fear, much fear! Bowel cramping fear! Menstrual
cramping fear! It wasn't even my time of the month yet.
My mother was one not hold her thoughts in. She was very
vocal, much to the embarrassment of my father. Phyllis's
mother was just as bad. I have to say that our fathers were
the stabilizing factors as we matured.
Our husbands' fathers were like our mothers while their
mothers were very passive. They were the exact opposites.
Phyllis, Carroll and I entered the room first followed by
the guys. I felt all eyes on us as we sat down at the
table. We all felt the cold distant stares that made me
shiver. I saw the women's eyes go into slits and the men's
eyes widen. I saw the women's eyes all stare in wonderment
or incredulity as they stared at Carroll's breast formed
cleavage.
"Carroll, I must say you look like your mother once did
dear," my mother, Jean said.
"She's adorable, just not what I expected at all," Joe's
mother Maria said.
"I agree Maria, totally. Judith, would you, Carroll, and
Maria join me in the powder room," Jean asked or rather
commanded.
I stood just as all the ladies at the table stood en masse.
That powder room was going to be very crowded I thought.
We all walked together, but Phyllis and I held firmly onto
Carroll, as I feared she was about to run for her life. I
saw that wide-eyed frightened look before and I was not
about to let my daughter enter the she-devils den without
me.
The inquisition started as soon as we entered through the
door and it closed. We were encircled by them as the door
was locked and blocked. We were stuck in this bastion of
femininity! They made the challenge and I accepted it
showing my fangs, claws and dripping venom to protect my
young daughter.
Phyllis and I protected Carroll from all their bitchiness.
I was proud of my daughter as she too defended herself from
the thundering fierce gathering of all those women. We made
them all cringe in fear and made them count their blessings
that they were born the way they were. They each heard of
the turmoil and strife that Carroll had all her life and
the depression she suffered. When the word suicide was
mentioned they recoiled, cried and held Carroll to accept
her gladly as one of them. A major battle was fought in
that powder room and Carroll became the victor.
We all repaired our makeup and left to enjoy our meal, and
to accept the lives that our children had chose for
themselves.
I found out later that the same thing also happened in the
private dining room. A few times, they were all close to
blows, until Joe showed just how forceful he could be. He
made them all realize what was happening. He told the men
also about the talk of suicide. It made them all stop to
think. He reminded them of the story of the Montagues and
the Capulets of Romeo and Juliette by William Shakespeare.
They all accepted our children but warned them of the rocky
road ahead. They warned that society was not as accepting
as they were.
Due to the busy day ahead of us, we decided to forego the
comedy club and return home after Martini's. We were all
emotionally drained.
As we prepared for bed I gave Carroll a nightgown, robe and
slippers along with all the love I had in me. I also had
her move into Patty's room. Joe likewise did the same in
showing his love by going to her room and kissing her
goodnight.
The following day Joe and George went to play golf while I
took Carroll to the doctor. Dr. Terris had given Carroll a
clean bill of health and wrote out a letter to the school
and our attorney advising them of her new status. She was
given her own scripts to maintain her femininity. Carroll
also made the obligatory donation to the vampires so that
her hormones could be checked. As blood was being drawn,
Dr. Terris offered Carroll a part time receptionist
position that was accepted immediately. I was so proud of
her during the visit to the doctor that we went shopping
afterward.
When we came home, I called Patty and Lisa. I told them
everything over the speakerphone. I spared no details to
her sisters. Patty's only question was if she enjoyed her
love fest. I watched as Carroll blushed, matching the pink
color of her jeans and high heels she wore, which were
mine. I sensed that Carroll wanted to speak to the both of
them alone.
While Carroll spoke to them, the doorbell rang at the back
door. I saw it was Alex and Phyllis and let them in. I told
Alex that Carroll was on the phone with her sisters and to
go talk to them. Damn that kid was fast!
Phyllis and I sat in the kitchen and talked. I told her
about the doctor and the notes. I also spoke of the brief
shopping trip to get Carroll some nightwear. Phyllis looked
a bit disappointed that she wasn't invited. I explained it
was a spur of the moment thing, which she understood. I
promised her we would all go shopping very soon, as Carroll
needed a new wardrobe for school, work and leisure.
Phyllis's eyes glazed over at the word shopping.
As we spoke, Alex and Carroll came into the kitchen holding
hands. Phyllis and I noticed the smeared lipstick and said
nothing until Carroll went to the refrigerator to get sodas
and bent over. I saw that Alex was watching her butt
closely.
"No more of that sweetie. You had your last for a very long
time yesterday." I said.
Phyllis laughed hysterically but I embarrassed the poor
kid. I mercifully got up and gave him a kiss, and a warm
smile to let him know I was kidding. He was always a part
of our family and loved by us all.
"Mother did you know that all your daughters now have
boyfriends?" Carroll said nonchalantly.
I was taken aback by what Carroll said. I was informed that
their boyfriends lived here in town. I thanked Joe silently
for sending Patty and Lisa to that private school. Being
the mother of teenagers, I was always on the edge. All I
needed now was to hear the famous words: "I'm pregnant
mom." I wonder if suicide is truly painless!
We all had been talking about the day so far when the phone
rang. It was Dr. Terris asking to come over with her
boyfriend. All she said is they had a surprise for Carroll.
When the doorbell rang, I asked Alex to answer it, as I
just made more coffee while Phyllis and Carroll prepared
snacks for our guests.
I heard Dr. Terris's voice and Alex's as they came into the
kitchen. I was amazed as Dr. Terris kissed us all telling
us to call her Margie. She then introduced her gorgeous
hunk of a boyfriend, Dr. Samuel Shapiro, Sam or Sammy for
short. The man was a god at over six foot, tanned and
athletic. Margie was six inches shorter at five foot six
very well proportioned, tan and athletic. We thought that
they made a very cute couple. However, a gynecologist and a
Plastic Surgeon? Oh hell, why not!
"So this is our chemist? Damn, that must have been one hell
of a cocktail or good genes." Sam said after being
introduced to Carroll.
"Down boy, you're with me now. She's spoken for and also
jailbait." Margie said jokingly.
"I was only kidding dear." He said as he bent to kiss her.
I had worked for this woman for over a year. This was the
first time I was allowed to be close to her. We had always
been very professional in the office. She was always cold
to the staff. This was another facet to this complex woman,
I had never fully seen. This was a very welcomed scene.
"Sammy and I spoke after you left the office. Carroll will
be at odds with the school if she has gym, swim or wishes
to use the washrooms or showers, no matter how many notes
she has."
"There is a technique sometimes used to create an illusion
of the right equipment. There is no surgery involved except
for a few sutures. I've heard, very little pain also.
Margie told me you discussed surgery but this is an
alternative until she is eighteen."
I thought of what they said.
"She can't have intercourse?"
"Sorry sweetie, but no Judy. It is an illusion."
"When can it be done and where?" I asked.
"Right here and now. We brought everything we'll need." Sam
said.
"Carroll?"
"Yes mother, they are right. The rumor will go out through
the school and all over town, I was always a girl. That
will be hilarious!"
"Margie will prep Carroll and assist me after you sign the
consent forms." San said.
If Joe finds out I'll never hear the end of it. Shit, I'll
be dead!
"I want a promise from all of you right now. What is going
to be done will never be discussed or disclosed to anyone.
Does everyone promise?"
They all agreed to what I asked. I wondered if the doctors
could suture mouths too. Margie took Carroll up to her room
as I signed the forms.
"Sam what is your fee for this procedure?" I asked.
"I already received payment from Margie. We're engaged to
be married. Finally, after three very long years. As for
the reasons, she said for you to ask her later."
We all congratulated him before he went to Carroll.
Phyllis, Alex and I waited and waited. In the meantime, Joe
and George returned from the golf course in a very happy
mood. It just had to be then that Margie and Sam came from
Carroll and Patty's room.
"That bedroom is gorgeous. Just what I want for our girls'
room." Margie said.
I introduced Sam and Margie to George and Joe.
"Is Carroll sick?" Joe asked concerned.
I jumped into the fray by saying, "Ah... Sweetheart,
lover..."
"Okay spit it out. You're hiding something. What now?" Joe
said impatiently.
I told him of the procedure and what was done to help
Carroll and the reasons it was done.
"It's logical, but we still have to pay your fee."
"Okay two rounds of golf, eighteen holes." Sam said.
"George, I like this man already. We now have a threesome,
finally."
"The men then went into the garage and left Phyllis,
Margie, Alex and myself. Margie asked for a cola as she sat
down at the table.
"Is Carroll okay?" I asked as I retrieved a cola for
Margie.
"Sure, she'll be down soon. We had her put on a nightgown
after we finished. Here's what has to be done for the next
twenty-four hours. No tight slacks, baths and cotton
panties only, that I noticed she didn't have. Use what she
has and get cotton panties tomorrow."
"Margie, why no fee from us?"
"There was another little boy that also suffered greatly.
That boy did the same thing Carroll did to her body in some
respects. Her parents were not as kind and understanding as
you have been. They threw her into the street and disowned
her. Her father had anally raped her earlier as her mother
watched laughing. As she left through the door, they both
called her all types of derogatory names from faggot to
queer to fruit.
"She lived on the streets until an aunt, her fathers'
sister, found her. With the encouragement of her loving
aunt, she went back to school, excelled, and had her
surgery. That girl became the woman I am now and through
Carroll's love and courage, I told Sam about my sordid
past.
"I finally found out what love is about because of all of
you. This was our little way of saying thank you."
That was a revelation that was unexpected by us. Now I knew
why she seemed cold and distant. Margie was afraid of
people and to make friends, She was afraid of what people
would think of her and her secret. I thought of the cruelty
of her own parents and the love of her aunt and Sam.
Carroll was in a different type of situation. Sure there
was deceit on our children's part, but at least we did not
do what Margie's parents did. I could not live with myself
if I had. She, as all our children, is loved and will
always be loved. If anyone interferes with my daughter's
life, their ass would be mine. It was fortunate that I had
given her name at birth that could be either male or
female.
Carroll came into the kitchen, as we were all talking
followed by the men. Phyllis called Carroll to her and
whispered something in her ear. I saw Carroll blush closing
and tying her robe really fast. Phyllis later told me that
she told Carroll she could see everything, which included
her new mantrap. I had to laugh because I had just bought
Carroll those babydolls today. I hadn't realized how sheer
it was or the view it could give a hormone heavy teenager
boy. Oh well, moms can make mistakes too.
In the days to come, Carroll and I bonded as mother and
daughter. I had noticed that Joe too had accepted her new
status in so many more ways by his complements. Joe and I
became closer too in many, many ways. Oh Yeah!
On Sunday both families went to church, not an eyebrow was
raised as the whole congregation saw Alex and Carroll
walking together holding hands. After the services I was
taken aside by our minister's wife. All she said it was
about time Carroll was to be herself and she was welcome.
We all went home changed our clothes and had a family Bar B
Que. All three of the guys cooked the main course while we
girls made the vegetables and salads. It seemed to Phyllis
and I that the kids were acting as if they were married
couple.
When we told our husbands, they both disagreed with us.
They said it was our imagination and we were seeing things.
We'll see! Are chastity belts still being made? At least
Carroll won't come to me and say those famous last words,
"Mom I'm pregnant."
After we ate, we girls went on a shopping spree for Carroll
with Alex in tow. Alex regretted he came with us. He saw
the packages of clothes: lingerie, accessories and shoes
grow and grow in his tiring arms. Several times, he was
sent back to the cars putting the packages into them. He
didn't complain once, but Joe and George sure did when we
got home.
Monday was a treat. We went to the attorney's office.
Carroll wore a gray business suit of mine with a red silk
blouse and gray pumps. She really looked like a
businesswoman and made many men stare at her loveliness.
We then went to a judge's chambers for the legal paperwork
to change Carroll's sex. I felt her humiliation as she was
led to the powder room with a matron. When she returned the
matron told the judge that Carroll was all girl. I saw her
smile for the first time that day as the judge signed the
legal order to change all documents to her sex.
Our next stop was the school. As we entered through the
doors, I saw many of the students that knew Carroll smile
and show their approval as to the way she was dressed. At
first, Carroll was nervous but I calmed her down.
We were well received in the school's office until the
principal came and took us into his office. He was a pure
redneck! I handed him the paperwork from the court and Dr.
Terris. He studied it all and seemed to suck the life from
the words on the paper. I saw his eyebrows squirm together
with a multitude of facial contortions.
"Mrs. Florentino, these papers are useless, as I run this
school, and no one else. I will however have the school
nurse and one of the office ladies clarify Carroll's
status."
"Dr. Busby, this is not a matter of what you want. This is
what the court says you will do. My daughter will be
allowed back into her classes as the sex she is. Her sex
was verified by the court prior to us coming here. She has
all the rights to an education as any other student."
"That is true. However, Carroll will comply with whatever I
deem as to the student's status."
"Sorry, apparently you are not comprehending what a court
order is. What you are saying is a clear case of bias
toward my child, and calling the court, her doctors and I
liars. Carroll will do as you ordered but she and I will
expect apologies upon the completion."
I was angered that this pompous pig had the audacity to
speak to me such as he did. He violated a court order! I
had to keep my anger in control for Carroll's sake. I had
no intentions to make her life difficult by this man's
hands. He seemed to be not only a control freak but
vindictive in nature. This was a very dangerous personality
trait.
"We shall see, Mrs. Florentino, please step out to the main
office while I contact the nurse."
I saw that Carroll was close to losing her composure. She
had tears in her eyes as we sat down into the chairs to
await the nurse.
I took out the cell phone and called Phyllis. I told her
what we had just gone through and our mental states. I
asked her to telephone Judge Thorsen, Joe, and our mothers
and inform them as to our situation.
Looking around the office as I spoke I could see there was
a general distaste as to what Dr. Busby had done and was
about to do.
Lorna one of the secretaries had a look of shock. I had
known Lorna for years we both had been friends until our
subsequent marriages and the births of our children.
"Why didn't you telephone me first? He has no right to do
this to Carroll," Lorna interrupted while I was on the Cell
Phone.
I quickly finished the conversation with Phyllis and said
to Lorna, "Well he did! Phyllis is calling Judge Thorsen,
Joe, and our mothers."
"Good, but Busby has ignored court interference before.
He's even ignored the school board directives." Lorna said
"Lorna, we don't want to cause any problems. All we want is
to have Carroll attend school and finish her education.
This man is the one causing the problems," I said as I
pointed to the principal's office.
"Carroll does look lovely in that suit. It is such a change
from those terrible baggy clothes she used to wear. She has
a lovely figure and needs to show her attributes off to
everyone. Her hair and manicure are great! She has a lovely
mother and she too is lovely." Lorna said.
We spoke for several minutes until Mrs. Smythe, the school
nurse came. She smiled at us and asked for a volunteer from
the office staff to witness what Dr. Busby had ordered. I
demanded to be present too. Lorna was chosen as the
impartial witness.
As we walked through the halls, I noticed there were no
students anywhere. I assumed that they were all in their
classes. I was later informed that the students were indeed
in their classes and if caught out of class they received
twenty hours of detention. Ridiculous! This was not a
prison! These were all young human beings here to learn.
I was still angry as we entered the offices of the School
Nurse. The door was locked to avoid anyone entering.
"Carroll honey, please remove your clothes for us," Mrs.
Smythe said softly and compassionately.
Silently my child disrobed before us to just her bra,
panties, stockings and high heels.
"Honey, please lower your panties and remove your bra."
I heard the intake of breath from Mrs. Smythe as Carroll
removed her bra and released her breasts. When Carroll
lowered her panties, all I heard was. "Uh oh." and Oh,
Shit. Someone made a very big mistake." from both Lorna and
Mrs. Smythe. The looks on their faces were priceless. I had
wished that I had a camera.
Okay so this charade was devious. I could have told the
truth about Carroll but after all the bullshit with Busby,
I wasn't about to say a word. I was still honked and I
wanted his ass.
"It appears that a mistake was made about Carroll's sex. Oh
honey, we are so sorry to have put you through this. Busby
will be pissed!" Lorna said as she gave Carroll a hug and
laughed at Busby's possible reaction.
"I assume she's had an internal exam?" Mrs. Smythe asked
coldly.
"Oh yes by Dr. Terris on Saturday. And a Pap Smear." I
sweetly said, but inside I didn't want to get Margie
involved.
"Well then, she's a girl and has always been a girl." Mrs.
Smythe said smiling.
I saw Carroll's eyes light up after I had told that little
white lie. Little lie? Hell that was a whopper. See what
having kids do to you! Anyway for some reason, I didn't
care for this woman. She wasn't like any of us at all. She
came off cold and uncaring, with a lack of womanly
emotions. I wouldn't say this to anyone but it was as if
she had an enema bag douche nozzle stuck up her ass.
Lorna and I helped Carroll get dressed while the stone cold
bitch went to her boss and made her report.
"Look, I don't know how you two did this and I don't care.
I remember when you had Carroll. I just want to see that
pompous bastard get his. He has made our lives a living
hell here. Dr. Forester, our former boss was fired because
of him and nurse bitch that you met," she said very softly
in a barely audible voice.
"Look Lorna, meet us at our house later. Please look after
Carroll while she is here." I said whispering
"That's a promise to you both that I will, and so will all
the office ladies." Lorna said also whispering and giving
us a warm hug.
We had Carroll dressed and walked back to the office. Lorna
assumed the manner of the typical school office secretary,
hurried. We assumed our chairs we had sat in previously
when my cell phone rang. It was the Judge Thorsen calling.
"I understand that Dr. Busby has ignored the court order I
signed in my chambers. Is that correct?"
"Yes your honor, he has and has humiliated my child further
by having her undress for the school nurse and a witness."
"I see. Do you wish to seek legal counsel to initiate a
lawsuit against the school district?"
"Sir there is something out of the ordinary happening here.
I feel that a legal action would only be hurting the
schools and the students. This place is worse than a
prison. Everyone seems to be afraid of this dictator," I
said softly.
"It's that bad?"
"Yes sir. I have several ideas that might eliminate this
problem."
We decided to meet at our house with Lorna and the kids
later. Maybe we could do something.
"Mrs. Florentino, here is Carroll's admittance slip to
return to classes. Carroll, we transferred you to Girls'
Gym, Home Economics and Office Technology. Your first class
begins at 7 am and your last period ends at 11:05 am,
Sweetie," Lorna said with a wink and handing the paper to
Carroll.
I saw Carroll smile as she took the paper. I told Lorna to
be at our house after school and she agreed by nodding her
head in acceptance.
I quickly left the school and went to the safety of our
home. The atmosphere of that school disturbed me. I heard
the kitchen door open and the familiar sounds of Phyllis's
feet hitting the tiled floor.
"Depressing wasn't it?" she asked as we both made the
coffee.
I told her of how the principal and his bitchy nurse
treated us. I told her of what Lorna and the Judge had
said. I was pissed and I wanted revenge at any cost. No
child of mine was going to be treated as Carroll was. I
understood why the Judge did what he did. However, that
asshole principal? Never!
I grew madder as we spoke. I did something that I swore I
would never do. I called
