Future Plans

Chapter 6

Future Plans

Leaning on the door, Lucius felt a surge of relief, one of his problems is solved now, there's still a lot to be fixed.

'Wait… did I just forget something?... Ah! Right! I haven't asked about Edward's new transformation power! And his transformation race!'

'I guess it's inevitable because of the situation, I'm already feeling grateful for his thoughtful treatment. He is always able to treat his friends like that..'

"Edward.. Huft.. Fortunately I got the best outcome possible from revealing this whole situation.. He really is admirable"

Feeling good Lucius ran to his sister's bedroom trying to tell her the good news.

Opening the door with a bit of force, the door almost gave up because Lucius wasn't aware of the impact of his upgraded strength after the transformation.

A loud bang comes out from the collision between the door body and the wall.

Sophia and Eve are both on their phone, Sophia is reading a message from her colleagues about work, and Eve is reading manhwa while laying on the bed, both startled because of the loud bang.

Eve jolted and almost falling out of her bed

"hiii! What.. What happens!?"

Sophia, while surprised, isn't showing much reaction, but she is still visibly confused and a bit panicked after hearing the loud bang.

"Luci? What happens?"

'Damn! What the hell!? Why am I so strong? I just opened the door with a bit more force than usual… ohh right! The strength stats!, right.. I have to apologize'

Lucius then apologized after giving a smile with a bit of pained expression.

"Ahaha I'm sorry, it's actually my strength stats, i forgot that I was stronger than before, oh right! Sister Sophia! The plan… It was successful!"

Finally hearing the reasons of why her brother suddenly ran and slammed the door she was sighing with relief, she then genuinely smiled and give Lucius congratulations.

"Congratulations Luci! So how's it going after that? Care to share?"

Eve after hearing the conversation between her sister and brother she joined and ask with curious expressions

"Brother Luci.. Is it about the plan that involves brother Edward to tell him your situation?"

Lucius with a bright smile sat down in front of them and then told the event.

Fast forward Lucius is done with his explanation, both Sophia and Eve are happy after getting to know that the plan is successful.

Eve having some silly idea suddenly said to Lucius.

"Brother Luci, how about we go out tomorrow? We have a national holiday, right?

"Should we go shopping for your new clothes! How about also getting your hair done! We can hang out together with sister Sophia, me and you, is it okay?..."

Eve had an expectation about the scenes of her hanging out together, especially now they're all girls and really beautiful ones at that,

So having to think of a trio beauty hanging out together, buying some clothes and going to the salon ignited her imagination about scenes like those in the manhwas.

Feeling complicated Lucius thought for a moment, he thought that the hang out plan had some merits in them,

He can try to get used to his new appearance and try to learn how to act as a woman outside of the home, so he decided to oblige.

"Sure, why not I guess we can go outside, ahh it's also a good time for us to have a nice time hanging out together, we usually can't go outside together because of our schedule,

"Uhh.. So how about you sister Sophia?"

Sophia is a bit afraid, she is thinking of Lucius' mentality, she doesn't know if he is ready for the treatment and obstacles he is about to face as a woman, especially a really beautiful ones at that.

But she decided to trust her brother's strong will, they have been experiencing a lot of life's problems and he's always able to overcome them together.

"Fine with me, so where should we go? Ahh Lucius don't worry about the money i have some savings,

"I save those money for a moment like this… ahh i mean a moment that require emergency money, right this is emergency"

Lucius feeling warms and relieve, he really is blessed with his family, even after those arduous trial after trial happening to him at his young age,

He is still grateful about his current situation, after all there are more miserable people out there who can't even eat their fill for a day.

"Sister… really.. Thanks a lot i don't know what to say"

Again, smiling warmly Sophia then said

"Luci, as i always said it's my obligation as a big sister, so of course we have to help each other, so now please tell me you guys opinion and plan"

Eve cheerfully said with a bright smile and raised her hand

"Me! Well I actually have the plans already in mind! How about first we get brother Luci a haircut and style it, of course he has to do it in a salon,

"We can't let him go to a cheap barbershop like he always does and get a cheap ass looking cut! We have to bring the full potential of his new look!"

'Haha Eve, fine! I don't afraid of that challenge! I'll tackle it with ease!'

Lucius smiled and said after the thought

"Ahaha sure Eve, uh.. Btw how much is usually to get a cut in place like that?"

He feels awkward for not knowing the pricing, so he plans to be prepared for the spending, he thinks he might spend more than 500k rupiah (around $30 USD) or even 1 mil rupiah ($61 USD at current change rate), so he has to brave his heart.

Eve and Sophia as girls have visited the place several times, of course both only get a cut for their bangs and a bit of cutting around the hair tips, so they don't spend that much money.

"Ehh.. You don't have to worry about that brother Luci, i think for full cut and styling you will spend around 150k or maybe even less,

"I don't know the specific because i never get a full cut myself"

Hearing that Sophia then added some suggestions.

"Actually you don't have to worry, I know a good place, their price is reasonable and I know the hairdresser that will do a great job for you,

"She actually is my friend, so maybe you can get some discounts! Ahh of course don't tell her that i said discounts, i don't want to burden her with request"

After hearing those suggestions Lucius felt relieved, having a sister really helped, especially his own sisters! Both of them are amazing and can be relied!, so he thought.

"Okay so our plan to go to the salon is now fixed, how about the store to buy my clothes?

"Ahh actually while at it why don't we buy clothes together? Not just me"

Both Eve and Sophia look at Lucius with a bit of weird expressions, after all buying a couple set of clothes, a couple pairs of underwear, and maybe some accessories for a woman will cost a lot even at discounted price and more affordable brands.

So both of them decided to refuse and maybe just buy some accessories or clothes that are really enticing for them.

"It's okay brother Luci, we got a lot of great and beautiful clothes we inherited from mother, they're all good brands,

"Even if it's a bit old on the trend but we don't mind holding a bit for now, sister Sophia also thinks so, right sister Sophia?"

Sophia getting nudged by Eve elbow immediately responded

"Yeah don't worry Luci, if we really want something we will buy it, so don't worry, our priority is to buy things for you"

Lucius feels bad after his sister's refusals, he don't know if this is the right thing to do, especially when they use Sophia savings to buy the clothes.

"But guys… I can't possibly do that.. I don't like it if I'm the only one that gets a lot of good stuff.."

Sophia smiled after hearing her brother thoughtfully thinking for her and Eve, but what has to be done has to be done.

"Luci, you know it's okay for sometimes getting rewarded like now, it's only on occasion after all,

"If something similar happens to us in the future I won't hold back and prioritize the money for it, so don't worry,

"As I said it's your day, you're the main character, and we as supporting characters have our own goals, which is to dress you up!,

"Uhhh did i use the terminology right? About character things… i don't usually read novel or comics after all"

Hearing firm refusal from her sister, Lucius finally surrenders, he chooses to let his sister do what they want to do, and vows to treat them in the future.

"Alright.. So where's the good store to buy the clothes from?"

Eve finally having her part to said, with quite a thoughtful expressions she delivered her opinion

"How about Un#lo? They have a lot of types to choose from and the price is affordable, ah they also have accessories booth"

Sophia thinks that it's a right place to go, as she also have been to that store buying some clothes, her usual brand isn't that, but she know that they have a good selection.

"Sure, that place is good to bulk buying, we can buy a special dresses from different store later if Lucius ever needed it"

Don't know what to say about the store and Sophia suggestions Lucius just accept all of it feeling tired.

Why doesn't Lucius just wear their late mother's clothes? Well it's because he even after having transformation still several centimeters taller than the siblings or even their late mother's,

The one that has similar build that is close to him is Sophia, she's only short about 10 centimeters, meanwhile Eve is around 160cm,

Their late mother is 159cm, so of course Lucius with the height of 175cm can't wear the clothes they inherited, such a shame.. Or what a blessing..

All of them aren't aware of the time, it's actually already over 7 PM closing toward 8 PM, they almost missed dinner time,

So they finally stopped and went to have their dinner.

Edward actually brought a lot of food, and he bought a separate portion for the siblings to eat for dinner. Edward really is a good friend, maybe even the best of the best Lucius can have.

Finishing the dinner with delight, the siblings then go take a shower alternately.

After around one hour all of them finished, still having to discuss tomorrow's plan they gathered back to the bedroom.

Lucius is the first one to speak.

"Btw about tomorrow's plan, what should i wear? It is fine to wear my old clothes? I can wear a hoodie and jeans, it should be fine right?"

Eve doesn't want to missed the chance to doll her brother up, she then tell him with a naughty expressions

"Hehe brother Luci, how about we decide now! Let's choose what clothes you're going to use for tomorrow!"

Startled Lucius almost backing up feeling some threat, his sixth sense is tingling telling him about something…

"Haha.. Eve.. Please don't.. We can talk about it, maybe my clothes in the drawer aren't that bad right??"

Eve doesn't want to give up, getting closer and trying to catch her brother in the arm.

Then both of them ran like cat and mouse.

After seeing the scene Sophia finally snapped and make a bit of angry look

"Both of you… can you stop now?"

Lucius and Eve freezes after hearing their sister's cold voice, they begin to sweat, after all Sophia isn't a person who can easily get angry,

So they finally stopped and sat down in front of Sophia asking for forgiveness.

"I'm sorry sister… I feel too excited about it.."

Lucius also doesn't want to left behind and said with face of regret

"I'm sorry too sister Sophia..but Eve.. She is too mean! How am I gonna wear a dress?"

Sophia then smiled after hearing their apology, with a bit of jokes she said

"Alright, just don't do it again, running around inside our bedroom is forbidden, especially because both of you now have a newfound power, you haven't had the chance to fully control it,

"So please behave, okay?

"Also.. Eve i can help you choose for Luci tomorrow's outings, I'm sorry Luci but please think this as a training"

Feeling a bit betrayed Lucius gave up and just accepted all the attention he get from his sisters.

'Why.. Sister Sophia..

'Ugh.. I don't really want to dress up like a princess… but they are really looking out for this..

'Sister Sophia might be right about training..

'In the future i have to act like a real woman with experience, it's to avoid a suspicion about my identity that are connected to my old identity as Lucius'

"Yeeey! how about this one?"

Eve pulled out a beautiful one piece from Sophia's cupboard, it have a color of bright blue osca with a checkered pattern.

Thinking it's not really match Lucius, Sophia also takes out another dress,

This one is a regal dress that has a cutout on the shoulder, with a darkish green color and an embroidery of a flower with a silver thread. It looks gorgeous and the size is just right.

That dress is gifted to Sophia for her 18th birthday when she still 16, the one who gave her the gift is their grandparents from their father's side,

It'ss almost feels like a parting gift, because when Sophia reached the age of 18 it's the time of the incident that happened, the loss of their beloved.

Sophia, looking at the dress with nostalgic expressions, suppressed her feeling of sorrow, she then brought it closer to Lucius.

"It's really good on you Luci,

"I think this one is good, you get to use my short heel shoes, it should be fine too as it is also bigger than my size, because the short heel you might be able to adapt easily and the color also matches!"

'Haha… it did look nice on me.. So now I have to wear it??

'Be strong Lucius.. Don't do anything stupid like snapping out on your sister because you'll regret it later for sure..

'Yeah let's just think this as a training'

Lucius his feelings is a bit mess right now, he doesn't want to let his sisters down, but he also still reluctantly refused to wear anything feminine,

He doesn't want to forget his true nature as a man but as this thing is required to be learned for his smooth cover he has to give it a go.

"Okay.. I'll wear it, where should I change?"

Eve looking at the dress quite enticed, because it really is beautiful, especially when she saw that it really matched her brother's appearance.

Then Sophia just said

"Maybe.. You can practice undressing in our presence, of course we won't see your body directly,

"We will look back when you change, is it fine for you?"

'Wait!? For real?! Damn… argh! Don't be angry! Think this all as training!'

Lucius thinks for a second, even though he's embarrassed about changing in the same room with his sister,

But he then thinks that in the future there might be a similar situation, so he follows the suggestion.

"I think it fine by me"

Eve and Sophia turned away and Lucius began to undress, after a difficulty he was finally able to wear the dress, after all he never knew anything about all of this.

"I'm done.."

Sophia and Eve turned back facing towards Lucius, both stunned for a moment admiring the appearance of Lucius in a dress.

The dress matches perfectly, it shows the beautiful line of Lucius' body, the curves on the waistline are really pronounced, the dress is almost like it was meant for Lucius.

'Haha… it really looks beautiful on me..

'But don't forget Lucius.. You're a man'

Eve gives her compliments with a bright smile

"Great! It looks perfect for you!"

Sophia, also felt satisfied, she was finally able to part with this dress.

She has never once worn it, she always connects this dress with her feelings about what happened on that day, but she can't sell it or give it to anyone.

"Okay it looks perfect, sorry for doing this to you Lucius, can you forgive your sister for this?"

Lucius feel a bit hurt but he chose to forget all of that, so he just say with a smile

"Ehh no problem sister Sophia, i think this as a lesson for future me, so you don't have to be burdened,

"Because I know what you do is the best for me"

The session is done, time tells it's almost 10 PM, so all of them decided to sleep,

Lucius then changes back to his comfortable sleeping clothes, and goes to sleep.

Thinking about future and the tomorrow's outing he find it's like a dream, something like this will never happened if not for his body,

So he felt complicated, he chose to stop thinking and finally go to sleep.
