Stiffled Desires

Chapter 11 - Part 2

I couldn't sleep properly because I suffered from aching, tearing pain in my lips all night, and by morning my lips were swollen even more! This was expected as the doctor who performed the procedure warned me that this was likely to happen.

I was lying in a state when consciousness had already woken up, while body refused to move, demanding to be left alone. Suddenly I heard someone insert a key and opened the entrance door. My heart seemed to stop, and I couldn't even take a breath while listening to the noises. Only my sister and I were supposed to have the keys to the apartment!

- Vicky, why are you still in your bed? – Lera was curious as she walked into the room and looked at me disapprovingly.

I finally exhaled and lightly slapped my forehead; I had completely forgotten that I had given her spare keys! At least now the drowsiness has disappeared as if it never existed!

- Have you forgotten that we planned to buy you clothes today? Lots of clothes! - The girl was trying to encourage me to finally get up!

I got out from under the blanket and sat down on the edge of the bed with my feet down on the floor.

- I almost didn't sleep all night! - I said, trying to inflate my cheeks, but immediately felt that any mimicry increases the pain in my lips.

- How are you feeling? - Lera asked, noticing my reaction. – Let me look at your lips!

The girl came up to me and lightly took me by the chin and began to examine the after effects.

- Well, so far everything looks fine, of course the lips are swollen and reddened, but it's not even looking so conspicuous!

- Do we really have to go shopping today? – I looked at Lera with sad eyes.

- Unfortunately, unlike you, I have to go to work tomorrow! So, we have to do it today! – The girl concluded sternly.

I quickly put myself in order, but if before I could get ready in ten minutes, now it took me almost an hour and that's considering Lera was constantly hurrying me, so I had to skip part of a not-so-mandatory routine!

We went outside, the cool morning breeze made me shiver, even though it was quite warm outside for the last weekend in September.

- It pleases me how you began to behave! – Lera started the conversation when we were already getting into the car. – It seems to me, or have you finally become engaged in the process of your feminization?

- Are you implying that I started to enjoy it? At this stage, if I do not behave like a girl, it will look ridiculous!

- But with me, you don't have to always act the part! Although I prefer you this way!

- It's more like I shut Victor inside me when my working day ended on Friday! I think I'll be much more natural if I'm being Victoria outside even when no one around!

- A logical decision! In the end, Victor went on a "business trip" until the end of October! – What was said amused the girl rather much.

We were both silent for a while, I had a wish to ask Lera about yesterday, but every time I opened my mouth, I couldn't find the right words.

- Is there something you want to ask me? - A faint sad smile appeared on her face. – Let me guess, is this about Nina?

- Do you read minds? – Either I was so predictable or she really is a witch, I thought as I spoke.

- It's just that yesterday, right after the hairdresser, you behaved as if you had a lot of questions! By the way, I appreciate that you still decided not to meddle in my personal life!
