There was an atmosphere of silence in the room for like twenty minutes. The room seems to be filled up with lots of individuals but they were all families.Roger's seven brothers, their wives and their kids about thirty people in the room were all seated, the room was such a huge one. Their father Mr.Richard was also seated among them having Roger by his right hand and Anna by the left.
The father already announced to them what Roger told him few days ago which was very hard for him to heed in to but after much persuasion and pleading he had to agree since his remaining mission according to him, is to make sure Roger stay happy and free in this world.
The family was just quiet. The eldest among them who has also earn a title of a senior Officer in the recruitment of male children from the age of sixteen and above was the first to speak up.
" Dad...we are yet to understand everything you just said. We appreciate the fact you recognized how we are currently letting all we have on the deck just to fight for our country regardless of our statues and family, but the part were u talked about Roger is still confusing, I bet you allow Roger talk to us."
De Chard family is a very powerful family that is governed with lots of ethics and rules and that has been what kept the family famous and flourishing. Therefore, in this great family, anything that must be carried out must be agreed by the father been treated as the king of the household and anything done contrary to his word will be tactfully treated. So Rogers had made his father promise him never to allow his brothers outspoke him in anyway but must stick to their plans.
"Roger has nothing to say. You all heard me right I must say"
Hell broke loose among them when he repeated himself, he told them about Roger's intention in undergoing a transgender in order to follow the female exportation to Port City coming up in few weeks time, everyone seemed to be against it because it sounded too absurd for a young boy like him.
When the meeting seems to have lasted the whole day, the brothers had to give in and were also required to manipulate his identity after the surgery and help grant a pass out of the country without any implications. But in one condition, Roger was proposed not to terminate his genitals instead a facial and breast implant with voice surgery was all to be done and he agreed.
***************
Roger rose from the bed. He was all alone waking from his bed. He hesitated a little before stepping out already feeling the new changes on his body. He headed to the mirror, as he approached the mirror he was full of curiosity couldn't wait to behold his new looks as a female and so he confidently walked up to it.
"Gosh!" He couldn't hold the shock. And that was also another shock, "hearing his voice", it was very more tiny and mild like never before. The reflection in the mirror really got him so marveled that he forget it was actually his reflection. A very light skinned lady figure with enlarged breast about the size of his girlfriend Jannie, a little increase in shape of hips and waist and very feminine face. The figure was a very beautiful one. Roger knew he was a handsome guy right from birth but never confessed that to himself but today, he stood starring right into the mirror and nodded in great affirmation that the figure right before him was a very beautiful one!
He gazed at himself for over an hour. He kept moving around watching his new body and wondered if this was actually the right to have done or has he ruined his life. He tried to make himself believe it was the right decision and found lots of hope in it.
The door flipped open. Anna walked gently and upon setting her eyes on Roger, she was puzzled. She stood astonished and Roger expected all that and allowed her to take her time. He sat down. He was still on his patient wear, but he was looking so sexy as if on tight gowns.
Anna heaved a sigh. She walked up and acted as though she didn't notice anything but was trying endlessly to hold herself from crying out, it's not a disaster anyway, he decided it and it was done so no need coming here to mourn, she tried everything possible to keep a straight face.
"Everything is working fine. We got a successful match to what we are planning, a couple that lost their daughter some days ago is willingly to sign in with us and if fully granted, leaving the city won't be a problem."Anna told him.
"What's the new identity?"
"The couple have a daughter who already signed in for this Port exportation but they lost her to a heart disease few days ago...her name is Benson Claire"
"Claire" He muttered to himself. He knew that will soon be his name and wondered how fast he will get acquainted with the name.
"That's not a bad name. Claire!" He called out.
Anna laughed out knowing why he was doing that.
"Unfortunately that's not her only name, she's also Roseline, that's Rose...so which one will you prefer as a middle name henceforth?"
Roger was a little embarrassed by this. He was still yet to believe all these is happening in just a space of time and it seems to be leading him somewhere already.
"Roseline?....not bad ...at least am Roger and I have got a R in my name...I will go with that "
At a point Roger remembered.
" Who knows about this amongst us?"
"Who else, just the family, letting people involved is at our own risk..."
"Jannie?"
"We told her you are going to join the military and they will take you along to the camp and you won't be reaching out again...in fact that's what we told everyone "
Roger paused from listening. Tears seems to be gathering and he tried to prevent that. He was not really ready to lose anyone for this but knew it was the right thing that has been done, he cheered himself up and then told her, " Always tell her I ask about her and will definitely come back a certain day..."
Anna nodded. She was never gonna do that, she really like the way they were ending the relationship.
