The second day of school is upon us. I need to get a PE kit together and we are going to the store tonight to get leotards, tights, a sports bra, dance shoes, leg warmers and a sweat band for tomorrow. Later Ellen said, “Em that looks good on you.” Seeing me embarrassed, she leaned into me and said in a whisper, “Em, I know you’re a boy.”

When we arrived at Jack's Diner everyone looked up as we walked in. I heard one boy say:

“Hey aren’t they the two British exchange babes?” The other boy said, “Ah, yes they are.”

“I would love to hook up with the tall one, Bert. She is one hot looking babe.”

What if the girls don’t like the fact that I’m Em? What will happen if I’m found out? What about Dan, will he make a scene if he sees me? Oh my God, what am I doing? Am I insane for doing this? What possessed me to do this? Oh Rhod you are going to be in so much trouble. I don’t think I am good enough to pass for eight hours of school straight. Oh my what am I going to do if I have to take PE classes? How am I going to convince the other girls I am a girl and not show things that may shock them? Should I wear slacks, instead of this skirt? Is my makeup good enough? Is my hair ok?

He turned to me and said, “I will decide what’s right Mfanwy, and this just isn’t the place for it. Ouch!” He quickly looked at his wife and I saw she gave him the evil eye and he shut up, I think she kicked him again.

WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? I’m totally confused. Mr. J gets angry about me being a girl, Sandy looks like she is getting chewed out, I find Sandy in the apartment by herself crying, her mother isn’t saying anything, and keeps referring to Mr. J, Miss Bell is being evasive and is upset I came here as a girl. Why is everyone so upset? God did I blow this big time? Am I going to be in serious trouble? Why is there such a big issue with me being a girl? I mean, after all, Look at Sandy she a big girl and me being a girl, I’d of thought that was more desirable. What gives anyway?
