Charlotte is woken up by her cellphone playing the ring tone assigned to her wife. She reaches for it, while staying under the covers. She presses accept “hello?”

“Good morning sleepy head. How are things going so far? And how are you doing?” Stella was enjoying a fresh cup of tea. She knew it was six in the morning where her wife was.

“You know its six in the morning here, don’t you? I haven’t had my first cup of coffee yet.” Charlotte felt tired after staying up late last night talking and drinking with her older brother.

“I know, so how did things go at the funeral and with your family members?” Stella was concerned about her wife.

“Not so good with my parents. They had me declare dead and removed all pictures of me from their home. They still can’t accept the fact that I became a woman. Also, no one recognized me here, until I came out to them at the reception at my parents’ house.” Charlotte knew she looked different then she did seven years ago.

“Well sweetie, you’re not the same person as you were seven years ago. Between the hormone pills, the numerous surgeries, and exercise you are an entirely new person. If I didn’t know what you had looked like seven years ago and what you look like now. I wouldn’t recognize you either.” Stella knew the hormone pills Charlotte has been taking has changed her body.

Not only had the pills/shots redistributed the fat in her body. But it has flooded her system with so much estrogen and progesterone that Charlotte’s body become very curvy and busty. She knew Charlotte had to cut back on the dosage she was taking, because she started lactating.

An evil smile appears on her face when that memory popped into her mind. She enjoyed milking her wife when that happened. It lasted for a few months and they sold her breasts milk.

“True, I do look different then I did seven years ago. However, I’m the only one in my family, besides one of my aunts who has the deep rich auburn hair that I do.” Charlotte knew there was only one other person in her family that she took after. It was her Aunt Margrethe.

A lot of her facial, body curves, bust, and hair color came from her aunt on her father side of the family. She inherited a few things from her mother side of the family. She was only a few inches taller than her mother.

“So, who has accepted you so far?” Stella was curious.

“My older brother has accepted me. Well, I think he has. He came over after I stormed out of my parent’s house. We talked and enjoyed a few
drinks until four in the morning.” Charlotte turns to lay on her back and stare up at the ceiling in her grandmother’s old bedroom.

“How is your other brother accepting you?” Stella knew Charlotte had two brothers, where she had an older sister, an older and younger brother. She was the middle child and the only spy in the family.

“Don’t know yet. I did find out that he is married and has two children from his high school sweetheart. According to my older brother, he got his high school girlfriend pregnant while they were still in high school. But, they didn’t get married until they graduated.”

“Boy! Your family can accept the fact your brother got his girlfriend pregnant, but can’t accept that you want to be a girl?” Stella shakes her head on that.

“You have to remember, sweetie. My family is very grounded in religion and personal beliefs. My grandfather on my father side uses to be a preacher in his younger days. He was very involved in the church. As for my grandfather on my mother side, he was a hard-working Irish man. He believed in hard work and a strong work ethic. He also believed in family. My mom changed after she married my father.” Charlotte remembered some of the things her grandmother told her about her mother. How her mother was more relaxed and freer spirited.

“I wonder what changed your mother?”

“I don’t know; however, I still need to see how the rest of my family here will accept me. I promised my grandmother that I would at least try to patch things up between me and them.” Charlotte knew she needed to keep her promise.

“I know sweetie. If you have any problems or get in any trouble. You can always call my cousin in Montana.” Stella knew her cousin in Montana would help her wife out.

“I hope it doesn’t come to that. He’s a scary person and I know from meeting him at the funeral, that he isn’t the type of person to piss off.” Charlotte met Stella’s older cousin and knew he wasn’t the type of man to piss off.

“That may be true about my cousin, but he has daughters that have gone through what you are doing now and he can make sure you don’t get hurt.” Stella knew the history of all of her cousin’s daughters.

“I don’t think my family will go to that extreme, but if they do. I’ll make sure to call your cousin for help. So, how is your case going?” Charlotte knew Stella’s case was important.

“You know I can’t talk about it, sweetie. Just be careful and remember that I love you.” Stella makes a kissing sound on her phone.

“I love you too.” Charlotte returns the kissing sound.

She puts her cell phone back on the charger and gets out of bed. Since she was already awake, she’ll grabs some breakfast and a cup of coffee. She puts her house robe on and her slippers and walk downstairs towards the kitchen.

While Charlotte is brewing some coffee, she looks outside into the backyard and spots a little dog chasing a rabbit. She wonders who the dog belongs too. She fixes her coffee the way she likes it and began making some eggs, hash browns and sausage for herself.

As Charlotte is eating her breakfast, while speaking to Sebastian last night. She thought she would ask Mark out for lunch and see what he thought of her and explained things to him. Sebastian thought it was a good idea, but would like to be there to help smooth things over.

She agreed to his suggestion. She asked him which restaurant was one of the best around and he informed her. She looks the number up in the old-style phone book her grandmother kept and made reservations for the three of them for tomorrow. Afterwards, she sends a text to Sebastian letting him know the time and place for the meeting/lunch.

The rest of the day Charlotte has her grandmother’s car towed to a mechanic Sebastian recommended. The two of them were best friends in high school and later when they went to college. Charlotte has the mechanic check everything over and give it a full tune up.
