Hope you enjoy

And I like feedback, good and bad it's all good

At the first break, Jennifer and I sat by ourselves and away from everyone. Jennifer said I'm furious at my mum for trying to feminize my brother permanently. That is so wrong. If he wanted it, that's ok, but to force someone that's wrong, I'm glad John ran away now. I agreed with her and then asked if the two girls in the corner were Sam and Tom. Jennifer looked to wear.  I nodded, and she said yes, that's them.

We don't have time to talk to them this break, but our next break is longer, so we can talk then. Then Jennifer nodded to a girl who just sat at a table by herself and said that's Jay. She's the fourth boy. I nodded. Jennifer said she showed him around when he got here, but then he stopped talking to me and anyone, for that matter.

Miss Bright kept asking me how he was going.  I'd tell her he was doing fine. Then one day, he stopped talking to me, and I've not seen him speak to anyone.  I've tried to get him to talk to me again, but he won't say more than 2 or 3 words. As we finished our food. I thought about what Jennifer had said. I got an idea. Then I asked Jennifer if Jay knew Miss Bright was asking about him.

Jennifer said no, I didn't tell him. I then asked whether Miss Bright had asked about me.  No, but she was walking around as I waited for you this morning.  I thought it odd as she's never done that before as she's never out front in the morning. I said. I bet you she will talk to you tomorrow morning. Why do you think she will? Because I did some research on petticoating in the computer science lab as I did all of that lesson last term at my old school.

So with what I found online and in that Petticoating booklet that Mum left in my room, which I read cover to cover.  I've got a low opinion of Petticoating.  It's not a nice practice at all.  It supposedly has good results with boys that are bullies through shame and humiliation, and sisters are great for that.

As it works out great for them.  Jennifer asked in what ways is it great for sisters. I told Jennifer. Younger sisters get to boss older brothers around, they can tell their brothers what they have to wear and get to do things their older brothers are not allowed to do like they get to stay up when their brother is sent to bed.

Jennifer got a shocked look on her face and said I remember before John left, I was allowed to stay up, and John went to bed.  That's so unfair. I know, but the booklet and what I read online said females come first. I Agee Females are just as good as males, but they should be treated equally. But my point is Miss Bright knows your brother was petticoated, so I think she thinks you'll be on her side, as everything I've read points to the fact that 90% of the time, sisters enjoy dominating their brother either intentionally or unintentionally.

Jennifer looked upset.  You don't think I'm like that, do you? I told her, no, I didn't.  I know how much you miss your brother. But I bet when we talk to the other boys, they say their sisters help their mum. Remember what Ben said his sister dobbed on him.  She didn't mean it, as she was too young to understand her actions. We got ready for class, and Jennifer said I can't wait to speak to Sam and Tom now.

At the end of class, Jennifer and I rushed to our lockers and then to the lunchroom.  We saw Sam and Tom in their usual corner.  We approached them with Jennifer in front, and she introduced me to Sam and Tom.  This is Alex he's like you he wants to meet the other boys like him.

We've already spoken to Ben. They said hello as we sat down too, and we fist-bumped.  Sam said don't let Miss Bright catch you doing that.  It's not ladylike.  Jennifer looked funny at them.  I do it all the time, and so do other girls. Maybe it's ordered from our mums, then.  We were getting in trouble a lot for not acting ladylike, but now not so much, so we must be acting ladylike then, or the girls like Jennifer aren't dobbing on us anymore.

Jennifer looked shocked and hurt. I came to Jennifer's defense. She's never said anything about me, and Ben trusts her as she never told on her brother or tried to dominate him as other sisters do. Sam and Tom looked at each other. All right then, we will talk to you, Jennifer. I put my arm around Jennifer's shoulders.

She said in a meek voice  I would never do anything against any petticoated boy.  You suffer enough of what your mothers have done to you. It's because my mother petticoated my brother that he ran away, and I've not seen him in 4 years, and it's all my mother's fault she took him away from me.

At least you boys have each other, I said. Yes, we can count on each other because we can't count on our sisters. Why, what do your sisters do  Tom said. There a year younger than us, and we used to stir each other up, but now they enjoy getting us into trouble, although now that there getting into girly things now, they've started leaving us alone.

Sam put in that maybe they've noticed how girly we've become. Jennifer and I looked at each other I asked what do you mean. Sam said our mums tricked us into taking hormones.  They used to give us healthy drinks in the morning, but they tasted awful, and our sisters took great delight in telling our mums if we tried to tip them out and got us into trouble, it wasn't mean-spirited.

We told them that it tasted terrible, but they insisted that we drink it, but they did start to make it taste better, so we didn't mind drinking it, but now we take vitamins as our mums said they didn't want to keep making our health smoothies, so we take vitamins now that's when I knew for-shore that they had been feeding us female hormones and to top it all off.

I heard Mum talking to Doctor Miller. She told Mum that we should keep taking the pills even tho we are permanently Feminized now. Doctor Miller went on to tell Mum  We'll just cut down their testosterone blockers to about 10 percent to be on the safe side, but we'll amp up their female hormones to about 120 percent. They'll start to grow breasts soon and get better curves like their mother. Then mum asked her.

When can we do the gender reassignment surgery?

The doc told mum, seeing that we'll have to be in hospital, we'll have to be at least 17 and a half before a hospital will look the other way, so for our 18th birthday, we become girls. Sam had a tear in her eye when she said that, and Tom was trying very hard not to cry. Sam then said. The stupid thing is Mum thinks she's doing me a favor. I actually want to become a doctor, and Tom wants to study law. I told them nothing was stopping them from doing that. Even if you're a girl, you can still be a doctor and a lawyer.

I want to be an engineer. I also love designing, so I thought I'd study architecture and engineering.  They both work well together. Jennifer said she was with Tom. She wants to study law.  She looks over her shoulder and around the room to make sure no one's close by so I can stop mothers from doing this to boys against their will.

Tom said. Don't look now, but Miss Bright has checked us out twice. She's made it look like she's watching the whole room, but she looked at us longer each time. Alex said what do we do Sam said do you play chess Alex  I do why. Sam pulled a chessboard out of his bag and said let's play. I looked at Jennifer and asked whether she played chess as well.  She nodded. I do. John tort me.  I said well; you can play the winner. I wasn't in Sam's league, but Jennifer was pretty good.

We played until it was time to go back to class. On the next break, we played again.  This time Tom and I would play, and Jennifer and Sam would watch us play. As we started to set up the game, Sam saw Miss Bright come into the lunchroom again, but for only about 5 seconds, 3 of which seemed to be focused on us 4. Just as Miss Bright left, Sam looked at the table as Tom and I set up the chessboard. Sam then looked around the room then said Tom, let's play outside.  It's a great day. Tom looked at Sam, and he was slyly pointing at the salt and pepper.

Tom then looked outside and said that's a great idea. Come on, guys, I'm sick of being stuck inside. I knew something was up, but I went along with Sam and Tom's idea. Jennifer said outside is a better idea. We went out to a table and quickly set the board up, and Jennifer asked what was that all about. Sam said you know how last month those girls got in trouble for toilet papering the science teacher's house?

Jennifer said yes, what's that got to do with this. They planned it all here in the lunchroom, and they weren't Sutle about it. It was obvious to everyone that they were up to something. Jennifer nodded yes. Tom and I were at the next table, hearing some of what they were planning. I looked at their table, and I knew they would get busted. Jennifer asked how did she know that.

Sam said well, the principal bugs the tables. Jennifer and I looked at each other and said bullshit. Sam said no, it's true.  Last year we had to help the janitor, as punishment. Set up the tables for that big fundraiser for the school.  Well, the janitor was petticoated till he was 15, then his mother died, and he was sent to his uncle, so he really hates that the principal supports it.

He showed us the principal's unique caddies for the salt, pepper, and sauces.  It's wooden, and there are only two of them, and they both have bugs in the handle. You can feel the little holes in the handle for the microphone Bruce, the janitor, showed us as it's his job to charge them up and turn them on when he sets the table. When she saw us talking at lunch, she'd want to know what we were talking about, and when she checked that we were at our usual table, she smiled just slightly, but she smiled. Tom and I have been on the receiving end of her cane, and she enjoys using it a little bit too much.

So when I saw the wooden caddy, I knew we had to get out of there, or one of you two would have said something to drop us all in it.  I couldn't say anything about the bugs that would have dropped Bruce in it, as he's supposed to be the only other person who knows about them.

I looked at Jennifer.  I bet you anything, Jennifer. Miss Bright will be waiting for you in the morning and asking how I'm going. Sam and Tom looked at Jennifer and asked what Alex meant. I told them my theory about why Miss Bright picked Jennifer to be my school buddy and Jays. Tom said that makes scents, as that's why Jay stopped talking to her. Jennifer's mouth was hanging open in shock. Tom looked at her and said you didn't know. Did you?

Jennifer slowly shook her head  Tom said he saw you talking to Miss Bright, and I'm sorry Jennifer, but a lot of the girls back then used to tell Miss Bright everything about us to get us in trouble. Ben was the only one of us who didn't believe what Jay thought, that you were just like his sisters and remember.  Jay has two, one older and one younger.  I don't know which one gives him a hard time.  Maybe it's both, but I know he has difficulty trusting females. Jennifer looked hurt and sad.  I do believe he thought that now.

Then she started to get mad then.  Jennifer said. I'm going to tell Miss Bright to sod herself tomorrow morning. We all said no together.  You have to play nice. Otherwise, she will be nosing around until she finds something, and I give her a knowing look. Jennifer didn't get it straight away, but then it clicked and said you're right.

I've got to protect all of you. Sam said don't worry about Jay if that's who you mean. Jennifer was thinking of keeping Miss Bright away from Ben. Sam said. Jay’s mum has tried the smoothies on him, but luckily it was when his older sister was away, so you don't have to worry about him. He drank them, but he got very good at throwing up, so very little got into his system, and because he didn't show any signs, his mom stopped giving him them as they were very expensive.

Whereas our mothers are very well off.

I'm grateful my mum hasn't got money to throw away on hormone therapy, (or so I thought,) and now I know what to look out for, thanks to you two and Ben. We finished our game just before the bell, and Sam did spot Miss Bright looking out a window. We went and got our stuff for our last classes.

Later as we were heading to the gate, Ben walked past and said don't try to talk to Jay.  He doesn't trust you, Jennifer.  He still thinks you're like all females. Talk to you guys tomorrow, at the same place, and I'll bring my chess set. Jennifer and I met my mum at the gate. I said thanks for the help today.  Jennifer, see you tomorrow right here.

Jennifer said you bet, girlfriend then she dashed to the bus stop. Mum and I talked about my school day, and I told her I had homework to do, so I sat at the table and started doing my homework Mum brought me my normal big glass of milk as I did my homework I thought about everything I learned today.

After hearing about other boys and how their sisters treated them, I was glad I was an only child. As I finished my milk, I saw Mum was making dinner. As I'd finished my class work I went and helped Mum with dinner then set the table as we eight. Mum asked if I wanted to go to the park or somewhere on the weekend.

I knew I didn't have any boy clothes anymore, so I knew I'd have to go as a girl. I told Mum no, I've got schoolwork to catch up on  I thought if I Didn't have any, I'd find some.  Anything's better than going out to where someone may know me. Stuff that for a bad idea.
