I woke up on thefirst morning for fall semester and I tried to be optimistic and excitedbut I could feel the loss of Pete's friendship and the paralle... emotionalwhirlwind of the crossdressing which was unfortunately embedding itselfinto my life. I was taking four classes that semester and I was becominga solid B student. I was still confused by what my life had become andthe first day back to classes felt strange.After my daily classes I headed home and as I went upstairs I saw myStepmother. I disappeared behind a veil and made Leliana decline, saying she'd have to discuss it with me first. I went to some of the craftsmen and organized some work to be done in her rooms, and had Josephine tell her they had discovered a problem with the ceiling in her room that would be finished by the end of the day, if she could stay out for a few hours. I went to the War Council, reassured my advisors that she would not be allowed to be involved in any decision making whatsoever, and then went to. I'm not saying you'll live in this house as long as I did, but you might. If Daddy and Wanda get married and we get some brothers and sisters, maybe there won't be room for everybody and you'll have to get a bigger place. If that happens, you won't be left out, believe me."She looked a bit more settled but I could see she was still thinking about it."Hey, I'll tell you what. It's time to take a break from all this stuff. Do you want to ride your scooter or your bike?" My bike." OK. Let's go out. .. yet. "This is where you'll start the final leg of the journey to our main facility. Your luggage has already been loaded onto the ship. Bobby is waiting to help you onboard – she's also the captain." Ship? What ship? The dock was very long and reached a few hundred feet into the ocean. A figure stood at the end. As I looked closer, there was ... some sort of ship rocking above the waves. "Have a pleasant voyage and enjoy your stay at the Club." I stepped out of the cart and waved as June.
