Wish Shift: Chapter Two
Deflection
Year 1 A.S. Day 32
No one laughed when Kira said that to her. Not that it wasn't just like
something she would say and that it wasn't amusing in its own way. Jenny
was mostly sure it was because none of them really knew what to say. Like
her mom had said to her in the restroom, it was just something that he
never expected to hear from her son, even if her son was now her
daughter.
She supposed that it also brought home to her sister Kira and her dad
that due to their own changes it could be very likely something that they
would also find themselves revealing in time and for Mattie and her mom
it was something that he would never say for the first time or ever
again. It was just too big and yet so intimate for all of them. As much
as Kira could try to cut it down with humor, her wit really wasn't up to
this task.
"I suppose that we should be moving along dad," Jenny said.
"I've got everything and if you don't mind I could really use something
to eat before we get on the highway."
Bringing it back to practical things that she could do something about
did what Jenny hoped it would with her. She asked Jenny if there was any
place in particular she fancied. Jenny was not in any degree picky though
and told her anyplace would be fine. The truth was that she was not
hungry until after the words were out of her mouth. Now that this was out
in the open and she had them focused on something else she realized that,
without warning, she was ravenous.
Little Jake picked up her biggest suitcase when Jenny offered it to him.
He only grunted a little, though it was packed to the weight limit. She
thought she detected a little pleasure in his eyes at how easily he was
able to carry it once he had plucked it from the trolley. Jenny handed
out her other things and they made their way to short term parking.
Once they got on the road, Jenny felt there was one more thing she had to
say.
"I know that this is pretty big to hit you with right off the plane. And
I really wasn't going to let you know like this. But can you just be
patient until we get home? I really would like everyone there so I can go
over everything with you once we're all together, if that's all right."
Dad made the non committal grunt she had managed to keep sounding exactly
the same even though it welled from another source. Jenny relaxed a
little. Everyone else murmured a quick agreement and concentrated on
small talk that wasn't intended to do anything other than take up time as
the miles rolled behind them.
It usually took about five hours on a good day to get home, but mom had
been right when he said that traffic would not really be all that much of
a problem. The normally infuriating Atlanta traffic was minimal and even
though there were even less people on the interstate and more
checkpoints, they still got out of the city fairly quickly. Dad
customarily didn't speed, not because she was fanatical about following
traffic laws, but because she didn't want to give the highwaymen the
opportunity dip their hands into her pocket. At least that is what she
had always said. Regardless Jenny thought that they made it home pretty
quickly.
It was about two hours till dusk when they turned into the driveway.
Jenny didn't expect to get much sleep. Jet lag was in full effect and she
didn't think she would even be able to lie down until just before
everyone else would be getting up sometime tomorrow. She could see from
the cars parked around the yard that Kim and Jake were already here and
George's old battered Taurus peeked out from around back. Grandma's car
was up by the door, but from what they said about her watching over
George that wasn't any surprise.
Her travel trailer was pulled away from the side of the garage where they
normally kept it when Jenny was away and her old black Silverado had been
moved out of the garage as well. She could see the water and power lines
snaking across the back yard to their hookups. When they got everything
deposited inside, she flipped on a light for later and went into the
house.
George was in a wheelchair pulled up at the edge of the kitchen table.
Mr. Jacobs had avoided them as often as possible, preferring to submit to
them only when he couldn't avoid it, but he had years of practice that
George lacked. Jenny had gone in last this time. She wanted all of them
to get settled before she started in with this conversation. Mom and
Mattie had already gone in while Kira, Little Jake. and Dianne helped her
download the car. Kim and Big Jake were quiet and that was a big change
for Jenny. Jake was usually a very opinionated and domineering husband.
He had never mistreated Kim, but it was plain to see on her face that she
was still in shock every time she looked at what had been her face. Jenny
could tell that her sister and his new role as Jake's husband was
something that Jake had not even begun to accept and only faced it
because she couldn't avoid or ignore it. Jenny made a mental note to only
use her male name with her for the indefinite future.
The nineteen year old girl sitting beside George she figured was grandma.
Her hair was shaved close to the sides so you could see the scalp. There
were several empty holes in her nose and ears that had held piercings.
Right now she only had one earring in each lobe though. Jenny looked over
at Kira knowing that she had left these things out, as well as the brick
red dye job grandma was sporting just to mess with her. She shot her a
dirty look and Kira stifled a giggle.
She made her greetings, but it was nothing like what would have been
normal. When the standard questions about her trip were out of the way
she took a deep breath and decided to not delay it any more.
"I've got a couple of things I need to tell you," she started.
"Mom, dad and everyone who came to pick me up already know one, but only
because it couldn't be avoided."
"Are you coming out on us now?" Jake managed to make what had been her
sister's voice sound gravelly.
"No Jake, I'm not coming out," she shot back. Privately Jenny had the
idea that Jake would be though. If she tried to maintain what she had
been, Jenny could see her becoming a butch lesbian pretty easily.
"What I have to say is that I'm pregnant," Jake's eyes flashed at her and
she held up her hand to keep her quiet.
"Let me finish, Jake," she said to her before she could even get started.
Jenny didn't have to even speculate that she wouldn't like being told
that by her one bit.
"I found out from the embassy. They told me when I was at the end of my
interviews. I know that you might not recognize me, specifically because
I don't do things the way she did, but I switched with Sonya when it
happened. They told me that, when it happened, she was already about six
weeks pregnant and probably didn't even suspect it herself. From what
they told me I'm almost ten weeks now."
"Where is Sonya?" Kira asked.
She was being very serious now, her version of dad mode.
"That's the tricky part," Jenny answered. "The fact is they don't know."
Mattie gave a half gulp/half shudder making Kim lean over and draw his
small form close to him.
"They don't know if she went into someone near or far or into someone
who...didn't make it." Jenny stopped for a second and unclenched her
small hands. She had been clenching them so hard that the knuckles blazed
white through the skin. She hadn't even realized that she had done so.
"Even though they don't really know, they did tell me what could have
happened though." This part was going to be harder than she thought,
Jenny realized.
"They think Sonya might be...here," she said bringing her hands back from
the table to rest on the slight swelling of her belly.
"Oh you poor girl," she heard grandma exclaim in her strange young voice.
"What made them think that? How could they even think that something like
that even would happen?" Jake demanded.
"They thought that, because of the other thing I have to tell you all,"
she said, bracing herself for what was coming next. She had everyone's
complete attention now, not that she ever thought she was lacking it
before.
"I asked them not to tell you this, because I didn't want you to get the
wrong idea. You see when...it...happened, the first thing I thought was
that Sonya had switched into me. But...he...didn't respond to anything I
did. He just lay there until the retrieval team from the embassy came for
us."
"Oh, my God," she heard Kim say softly. "I can't imagine what that was
like for you."
"They took us both to the embassy compound and I didn't see him again
until just after they confirmed that I was me. I asked them not to tell
you about it, because I didn't want you to think that I was in a coma or
something. The truth is they think that Sonya and the baby switched when
we did. At least they're mostly guessing that's what happened."
"And what happened to your body then?" Dianne asked. "Did they just leave
it there? What are you going to do?"
"They had him transferred to Midland's Memorial just before I got on the
flight to come home. They told me that they would contact me once the
transfer was finished, but I don't expect to hear from them for a few
more hours."
"What was their reasoning for telling you this?" George said, speaking
for the first time since she had come in.
"They won't do it for shits and giggles," Jake added sourly.
"They told me that while they were keeping my body under observation,
that he was starting to move in a way typical of a newborn. There was
nothing about his actions that suggested that he was comatose. They want
to keep him under close observation for the next several months."
"Jesus, that's gonna cost you a fortune!" Kira blurted out.
"No, they're picking up the tab on this," Jenny answered.
"This is research to them. One of the things that they told me was
understanding things like what was happening to us was a top priority.
And our case is of particular interest to them."
"And you believed them? Jake said shaking her head at what she was
indicating by her action as disbelief at Jenny's newly gained female
gullibility.
"Jake, I don't really have a choice in this now do I?" Jenny answered
back. She didn't want to have it out with Jake right now. That kind of
unpleasantness was not on the menu as far as she was concerned.
"I guess not," she grudgingly agreed.
"Anyway, as soon as they get in touch with me, I'm going to hook up the
travel trailer and I'm going to go down there for the next few weeks.
They want to evaluate us both, we're kind of a special case so they fast
tracked it. I've already got a series of appointments with a slew of
doctors down there. I don't really know how long I'll be there though."
"Sounds like you could use some company," Kira said after a minute. "You
want Dianne and me to come down there with you?"
"You know I would, but I wasn't going to ask you tonight," she answered.
"You sure it's not a problem Dianne?"
"You know you don't even have to ask that," she answered right away. "But
you might have to give us a day or so to get things straight here. We
might have to drive down after you leave if you have to go before then."
"Or I could ride down with her and you can follow when things get set,"
Kira said.
"We'll see," Dianne answered.
"So is that everything? Or is there something else," dad said. It was the
first thing she had really said since Jenny had started telling them
about what had happened over there.
"No, that's it," Jenny answered more than a little relieved that this
particular part of the conversation was over. She had no intention of
telling any of them just how female she had become since the Shift and
definitely not why that was. As it was she planned to keep that to
herself while she was working it out a little more before broaching that
topic.
"There is one thing that I'd like to know," her father said. "And that is
what do we call you. You still haven't told us. Your mother and I both
already had names that either one of us could use and your brother
changed his to that trek girl he had a thing for." Kira shook her head in
bemusement at that.
"The rest of us are pretty much the same as before." Jake scowled at that
last part and Kim just looked uncomfortable. "So how about you?"
"It's Jenny," she answered. "Jenny Sonya Minton."
She watched her mom and grandmother's slow smiles from across the table
and knew she had made the right choice. She was finally official.
----------------------------------------------------------
Year 1 A.S. Day 33
Jenny had bought her travel trailer shortly after she moved to China for
work. It made sense to do that. She didn't have a house before she left
and most of her possessions could easily fit in it. It made it easy to
store her stuff out of everyone else's way. It wasn't that she couldn't
stay with family when she was back. She often did that already, but the
10'X40' foot trailer gave her options just by having it and she liked
that. She'd bought it secondhand her first visit back and had spent the
better part of a month renovating it with dad and Greg. It made a handy
thing to have when she took a trip and she had planned to use it to stay
in when she came back for good to ease the transition financially.
The old black Silverado she had owned since college. Between her dad,
Kira and George it was in good shape. They were pretty meticulous about
keeping it in good condition while Jenny was away so she didn't have any
misgivings about using it for this trip. She knew that they used both the
truck and the travel trailer occasionally while she was away, but she had
never had any problem with them doing that. She knew that they would look
out for her things like they were their own and would treat them with
respect. She wished she could say the same for Jake.
After everyone else called it a night, she retreated to the trailer. It
would be several hours before she would even attempt to call it a night.
She really wasn't looking forward to the next couple of weeks of jet lag.
She was just about to get settled when she got the call from the hospital
that the transfer was completed. She confirmed her appointments and then
sent Kira a quick text. The family knew that she would keep weird hours
for the next few weeks, so she knew that Kira would not think anything
strange about getting a text from her at zero dark thirty. She lay back
on the mattress and got back to sorting herself out. She was glad that
this part was done with, but there was still so much else to knaw at her
mind and she really hadn't even started. Odd thoughts kept popping into
her mind and she wasn't even aware of just when she drifted off because
of it.
Kira was already back from her and Dianne's place when Jenny woke up a
few hours later. Jenny didn't know just how long she had been waiting for
her to get up. Jenny had not bothered to unpack very much last night so
she just fished a few things out of the suitcase to get her through
today. She had on the black and white sleeveless striped dress that Sonya
had loved wearing and a pair of white running shoes. She had bought it
for Sonya for her birthday shortly after they started dating.
She had pulled her long thick hair back into a loose ponytail and had put
on a little pale pink lipstick. She still had no real skill with
cosmetics, but she was going to the DMV today and she didn't want to let
Sonya down by looking like shit. She looked into the mirror for a long
few minutes afterward and then looked down at the faint bulge of her
growing belly. "I miss you baby," she said quietly.
"Holy shit," Kira said when Jenny walked into the kitchen. "That is the
last thing I thought I would see you wearing this morning. And are you
wearing lipstick already? I didn't see that coming."
The smell from the coffee made her stomach give a quick lurch and Jenny
braced herself to run to the toilet down the hall, but it settled and she
relaxed a bit.
Kira looked at her concerned. "Anything else making you hurl yet?"
Jenny shook her head and dosed her cup of coffee with lots of cream and
sugar. She didn't drink it like dad anymore. Sonya's taste in coffee had
stayed with Jenny it seemed. "Not yet, but anything can set it off. I
hope I don't have the same problem with bacon that Kim had."
"No shit," Kira answered. "I'm surprised she didn't puke the kids up
since she was craving it the whole damned time as well."
"So why'd you wear that today? It looks good, but I damn sure wasn't
expecting it from you," she said.
"I have to go to the DMV today. I want her to look nice," Jenny said and
left it at that. She didn't feel like going into the fact that since that
first night she had felt less and less like the man she had been before.
She had noticed that everyone in the family and for that matter most of
the people she had seen since the Shift tended to dress in ways that did
not lean either overtly masculine or feminine. Kira was a good example of
that this morning. She was wearing a pair of tan cargo shorts and a baggy
T-shirt she had bought a few years ago. She wasn't wearing any make up or
jewelry either.
Last night Jake had been wearing new clothes. She also had clearly not
been wearing a bra and Jenny was certain that she had absolutely refused
to wear anything that Kim had owned before unless she had to. She had
even made Kim wear his delicate wedding ring on a thin feminine chain
around his neck while Jake had her own suspended from a heavy one around
hers.
"Mom and Dad still here?" she asked.
"They went out about an hour ago. George needed them to help take him to
his physical therapy. They should be back in a little while," she
answered sipping her coffee.
"Did Grandma go with them?" Jenny asked stirring her coffee.
"No, she had to go to work this morning, but she'll probably swing by
here when she's done. You up for a cookout tonight?
The thought of dad's BBQ ribs flashed in Jenny's mind and she felt
instantly hungry. "You bitch," she said to Kira, "now I'm starving."
"That's a yes then," Kira said.
Jenny ignored her and started pulling out the ingredients for a monster
omelet out of the fridge.
"So what's the game plan? You said DMV and I got your text when I woke up
so what's the deal?"
Jenny started dicing vegetables and ham. "DMV for my license and
registrations and police department for my CCP. I want to get all of that
stuff out of the way before I head down there. And I have to call a
couple places to rent a lot for the trailer while we're there as well.
You going to bring your pop-up or are you and Dianne gonna squeeze in
with me?"
"We talked about it on the way home, I'm gonna ride down with you and
she'll get the pop-up and follow us down in a couple days. Anything
else?"
Jenny added the diced meat and vegetables to the omelet and started
shredding some cheese over them. "I probably need to hit the bank to get
things straight with them if I can today."
"Not today you're not. They won't open for another week. You ok for
cash?" Kira would know better than most Jenny thought since she worked at
the same bank Jenny used.
"Yeah I'm good, I closed out my Chinese bank accounts and converted it
all before I left." She put the omelet on a plate and started dousing it
with Tabasco.
"You finish then and we'll get going," Kira said while Jenny dug in.
After Jenny fished out the papers she needed from her safe, she put them
in the thick folder holding her new passport and all of the other
documentation that the embassy had given her. She slipped it into the
backpack along with some emergency clothes. She had no intention of
walking around wearing this if she couldn't make it to a toilet like had
already happened to her a couple of times in China.
"You and that damned backpack," Kira said to her as they walked out the
door to the truck.
"What?" she asked. She knew what she meant though. Jenny had gotten used
to hauling the backpack around where ever she went in China and even when
she came back to the US she still did it without thinking.
Kira just rolled her eyes in mock exasperation.
She opened the door to the truck and threw the bag in before climbing in
after it. The truck was so much bigger now. She needed to grab the
steering wheel to help swing into the driver's seat. She leaned over and
rooted around in front of the seat, found the lever and started to slide
the seat forward. When she got it adjusted she settled in behind the
wheel.
"Crap," she said.
"What is it?" Kira asked
"I feel like I need a goddamned booster seat."
"You want to take my car?" Kira asked. Jenny looked over at her. Kira's
legs were pushed up a bit by Jenny moving the seat so far forward.
"No," she said after a minute "but you should probably drive this time,"
Kira agreed and they took a few minutes to switch out and readjust the
seat. Kira cranked the engine and pulled the big truck out of the drive.
"I can already see a new set of truck seats," she said.
"Yeah this bench seat just won't cut it for everyone else when you
drive," Kira answered.
The DMV was packed. Jenny was expecting this and spent the time waiting
talking with Kira. They didn't get into anything personal, too many
people around for that kind of talk and just hearing her brother talking
about inconsequential things was soothing in its own way. She eventually
got to the counter and after wading through the stack of paperwork the
embassy had provided she got the truck and the travel trailer's
registration changed and went back to sit with Kira to wait for her turn
to get her driver's license photo changed. She had another attack of
morning sickness while they were waiting, but she got to the toilet in
time and didn't have to do anything other than use some mouthwash and put
on some more of the lipstick for the photo.
There were less people in line at the police station. She got through
that pretty quickly and with all of her documentation there was not any
real trouble getting her concealed carry permit updated. She did have to
go through a qualification course soon, but that was not anything she
considering unexpected. She made a mental note to swing by the range and
get some practice time in before she went down for her appointments. She
considered asking George if he wanted to come with her. She figured he
would since it was one of the things they did regularly before. But she
decided to wait until later to ask him.
----------------------------------------------------------
Year 1 A.S. Day 38
The night before she was to leave mom pulled her off to one side after
dinner.
"I know what you're doing Jenny," he said when they were alone.
Jenny looked back at him and didn't say anything.
"You're being in control the same way you always do when things are
falling apart. You do the same thing every time. I've been watching you
running around, checking things off your list. Keeping in control.
Keeping busy so you don't have to deal with the rest of your life. You
need to quit it."
Jenny started to open her mouth to say it wasn't like that and just
stopped instead.
"Don't talk, just listen ok? mom said. "You need to do these things, I
know. But you've been burying yourself in details since you got back. You
need to back up and take some time to deal with what you're ignoring or
you're going to be a basket case when you run out of things to do to
avoid it. You keep trying to be a rock and it's going to break you."
"I have to do this mom," she started to say. But mom just nodded and
stood up and motioned for Jenny to come with him. They walked down the
hallway into the bathroom. Mom closed the door behind them. He stood
behind Jenny in the big mirror.
"I've been watching you every day," he said. "You haven't been wearing
anything but dresses and a little makeup and you look beautiful. You look
like you're handling it, you really do even though you only go so far.
She was lovely, I can see why you fell for her."
He pointed at the mirror. "That's not her anymore, it's you. You're not
honoring her when you do what you've been doing, you're embalming her.
You can't play dress up the rest of your life. I've been watching Jake do
it since the Shift and honestly I'm worried about her and what it could
mean for Kim and the kids." He motioned for Jenny to sit down.
"That woman in the mirror is you now. She's going to be you tomorrow.
She's going to be you the day after that and every other day that
follows. Mom placed his hand on her stomach. "If they are right, that is
her now. You are going to be this baby's mother for the rest of your life
and it doesn't matter who she was before."
"I know you said that you are wearing these things because they fit you
and they were hers. But they're not anymore. These are your clothes now.
You need to accept that when you put them on it's because they make the
woman you are now look beautiful. You need to wear them because you want
to wear them. When you put on makeup it should be because you choose to,
because you want to look good as a woman, not because she did that."
Mom looked her in the eyes. "Sonya is gone Jenny."
Jenny collapsed against her mother's chest. "I miss her," she said over
and over through the tears. Her mother didn't say anything else as he
held her and let her wallow in her loss.
