“Wow Em, she’s sort of cold isn’t she?” Ally said. “I don’t know what her problem is today? She is not usually like that. She’s usually a really nice person. She must be ‘ON’ herself?” Darla stated. “I don’t think so Darla. Look guys,” as I looked around to make sure we wouldn’t be overheard, “She knows, or think she does, but is not sure.” “Knows what Em?” Darla asked. “She knows about Rhod.” I said. “What!” Ally exclaimed. “Shhh, keep it down. I’m telling you, she knows about me being Rhod.”

David Sanders saw something he shouldn’t have and Agent K will do everything she can to keep him alive–-but who can he trust as he sinks deeper into a disguise he never chose, and will he ever find himself again? This collects the first ten chapters--the first story arc--into one place. Transitions between chapters have been smoothed out and hopefully it reads as a single novel-length narrative.

“Em, you’ll be a great mother, you took great care of Kevin. I couldn’t have done a better job. That was the first time he went to bed without an argument.” Mary said. “How did you do it?”
“Trade secret.” I giggled, “We mothers need to have some secrets.”

I turned back to Ally and Sandy, “Hey guys, I think I have a real problem and I mean a real serious problem.” They both stopped laughing and looked at me. They could tell I was serious.
“What’s wrong Em?” Sandy asked.

Chapter Eight: David settles in to life at the Clinic and perfects his disguise. The clinic promises safety but David’s paranoia leaves him in doubt, even as Cindy makes a new friend.

Chapter Seven: David and Agent K check in to the Clinic, but the disguised man’s instincts are proven correct: there’s more to the place than meets the eye.

Chapter Five: It’s time for a little talk, David decides, and some answers. However, Agent K is fond of her secrets and has plans of her own for the disguised man.

Chapter Three: Girls aren’t just born, David learns, they’re trained, especially in the witness relocation program. And eventually you have to put that training to use, because you can’t stay in the safe house forever.

Mary relizes she doesn't even know Sandy's favorite color. “I'm really not doing that good a job as a mother, am I? I’m so ashamed.” Mary was going to cry, so I pulled her into a hug before she lost it. “Oh Mary don’t cry, I’m sure you’re doing the best you can. No one is perfect.” Mary said, "I really need to get to know my S ... ah daughter."

Em, you have to move smoothly, you are jerky like a boy. Think were you are going to move your hands and slowly move them there. That's it, soon we will have you moving gracefully getting rid of your boyish movements. Her refering to my boyish movements were un-nerving me. Does she know?

Ellen, Sandy and Em get some starteling insight about Mr. J. Will Sandy be able to cope? Will Ellen keep her cool? What Empression will Em get out of this chance meeting?

Em is going to school with her enhancements for the first time. She dresses very nicely and sexy. She is in an excellant mood. Even Sandy is amazed at her mood. Will Em survive the day? Or will Em be on an emotional rollercoaster from all the attention she is getting? Will she be treated fairly by all of her supposed girl friends?

The second day of school is upon us. I need to get a PE kit together and we are going to the store tonight to get leotards, tights, a sports bra, dance shoes, leg warmers and a sweat band for tomorrow. Later Ellen said, “Em that looks good on you.” Seeing me embarrassed, she leaned into me and said in a whisper, “Em, I know you’re a boy.”

When we arrived at Jack's Diner everyone looked up as we walked in. I heard one boy say:

“Hey aren’t they the two British exchange babes?” The other boy said, “Ah, yes they are.”

“I would love to hook up with the tall one, Bert. She is one hot looking babe.”

I could see Sandy beaming, as her brother spoke about her. I could see Mr. J turning puce trying to hold his tongue. He was absolutely livid but he couldn’t say anything about it. I was there and he didn’t know, I knew everything about Sandy. I am hoping Kevin never spills the beans about me knowing. Kevin was using all the correct pronouns when he talked about Sandy.

He turned to me and said, “I will decide what’s right Mfanwy, and this just isn’t the place for it. Ouch!” He quickly looked at his wife and I saw she gave him the evil eye and he shut up, I think she kicked him again.

WHAT IS GOING ON HERE? I’m totally confused. Mr. J gets angry about me being a girl, Sandy looks like she is getting chewed out, I find Sandy in the apartment by herself crying, her mother isn’t saying anything, and keeps referring to Mr. J, Miss Bell is being evasive and is upset I came here as a girl. Why is everyone so upset? God did I blow this big time? Am I going to be in serious trouble? Why is there such a big issue with me being a girl? I mean, after all, Look at Sandy she a big girl and me being a girl, I’d of thought that was more desirable. What gives anyway?

Rhod finally arrives in Grottoes Virgina. There is a little welcome party planned were all the exchangees will meet up with their host partners. Rhod has no idea who his host partner is except his name, Sandy Jones. He is the replacement for Dan Martin that freaked out when he discovered Rhod was Mfawny. Dan was removed from the exchange program. How will Sandy react when he meets a girl instead of the boy he was expecting? (Even though she is that boy.)

Rhod has some tight moments, will he be able to make people see he is a girl? Will he be able to carry it off? Will his classmates twig there is something amiss? He still has a male passport, what will happen if he makes it to the American Customs?
