Chapter 11

In order to explain to Bruce, Katherine had to repeat it.

"Oh, my God, oh, my God." Although Bruce was a rare atheist, he still invoked God at this moment.

This was probably a common exclamation among Europeans and Americans.

"Oh, should we celebrate, my sweet little darling? Maybe we should buy a color TV?"

A TV?

Katherine's heart skipped a beat. There was an unfinished circuit board for a TV in her bedroom, maybe...

Before Katherine could think or even ask a question, she felt a sharp pain in her abdomen.

Her face turned ashen.

"Oh, Kate, what's wrong?!"

Bruce didn't ask many questions; he quickly found the cause.

Blood was flowing from under Katherine's nightgown, down her thighs.

October 10, 1960, was a memorable day, marking another step toward Katherine becoming a true woman.

...

"Kate, it's been a while. How have you been?"

"How are you?" This was the most common greeting in America. After staying at home for a week and returning to school, Lily greeted Katherine with this phrase. Normally, the response would be, "Thanks, I'm fine, how about you?" But Katherine's response was:

"Terrible, I've never felt so bad."

Katherine touched the strap on her shoulder. Now, she indeed felt some weight in her chest. The swelling in her chest had disappeared in just a week, but after that, she felt the sensitivity in her nipples had increased significantly. Honestly... it was terrible.

"By the way, we've already decided on a name for the clothing company."

Lily took out a drawing of a logo featuring a pair of angel wings.

"Angel Clothing Design Company?"

Hearing this name, why did she feel a twinge of pain?

"Not bad."

Katherine could only respond like that.

"By the way, Kate, this is for you. Congratulations on starting your transformation into a true woman..." Lily handed a small box to Katherine with a half-smile.

"What is it?"

"You can open it and see~"

Katherine suspiciously opened the gift, but her face turned bright red.

It was a thong, the fabric seemed to be reduced to a minimum. More importantly, this thong did not fulfill its duty as underwear; it was completely transparent.

The thong was invented in 1955, but even so, this was too... extreme?

"Lily!"

"Do you like these pretty little panties?" Lily seemed completely unconcerned.

"Yes, but I can't wear them..."

"You can wear them at school, and there's no problem in the dorm. Who cares? There are no men here except for the teachers."

I feel even more embarrassed in front of women!

"Kate!"

Lisa, Jenny, and Ada also entered Katherine's dorm room.

"How are you feeling, Kate?"

"Very bad."

"These panties are really pretty, a gift from Lily, right? Congratulations, Kate, you've taken another step toward becoming a true woman."

I'd rather become a true man, but I don't like knock-offs or imitations...

"By the way, Katherine, this is something I made overnight, it might fit you well." Lisa handed a tight-fitting T-shirt to Katherine.

With the release of "A Streetcar Named Desire" in 1951, Marlon Brando's white T-shirt became a national icon. The soft and comfortable T-shirt liberated male beauty from the rigid, monotonous, and conventional upper-class dress code, showcasing a rugged physique that stunned and captivated the nation and the world. Although T-shirts were previously only worn as undergarments, they had now become everyday attire, though the real trend would take a few more years to fully develop.

"I designed this as a two-in-one, with a built-in bra. So, you don't need to wear a bra, and the straps won't show. Don't worry, it's made to your exact measurements, Kate."

It would look good with tight jeans.

"Thank you."

Katherine indeed liked this kind of clothing. Although she had been wearing a bra for a week, it was even harder to get used to than pointe shoes. Katherine always wanted to take it off, but for the sake of her figure, she had to endure the discomfort.

Since it was a two-in-one and looked good, Katherine really liked it.

"Here, Kate." Jenny handed two books to Katherine.

The first was "100 Questions About Puberty."

The second was... contraception knowledge?

Katherine was speechless.

To be honest, she had no interest in men. Even though she was now a woman, she still felt that only pretty girls could spark her interest.

"Alright, now it's my turn, Kate. 'Mr. Horn' will definitely make you fall in love with him, trust me."

"Mr. Horn?"

Looking at Ada's half-smile, Katherine felt a bit strange.

"Once you're in bed, open it under the covers. It doesn't matter if it's still there, it's vibrating~" Ada whispered in Katherine's ear.

"Um..."

Ada's breath on her ear made Katherine's face instantly turn red. Since her first period a week ago, perhaps due to psychological effects, Katherine felt her entire body had become a sensitive zone. A light touch would make her whole body heat up, even to the point of being unbearable.

If it were just a moment, she could endure it, but the problem was that her body had been like this for the entire week.

"Alright, Kate, we won't disturb your rest."

Perhaps seeing Katherine's still pale face, everyone assumed her body hadn't fully recovered.

In any case, for Katherine, this somewhat awkward situation finally passed.

But what did Ada give her?

Following Ada's instructions, Katherine was unsure. Was it a prank?

No, but why could it only be used when she was alone in bed?

In any case, as evening approached, Lily went to bed early.

With curiosity, Katherine took a flashlight into her bed and opened the mysterious item.

Instantly, a wave of heat surged through Katherine's brain.

This was even more exaggerated than the thong Lily had given her.

Although the Japanese hadn't invented the vibrating egg yet, the history of "Mr. Horn" was long and storied.

But... why did Ada give her this?

She felt her heart rate increase, and her face turned bright red.

...

Note: The history of "Mr. Horn" is said to date back to the Ming Dynasty. A vibrating "Mr. Horn" seems to have existed in the 1950s, but the information is unverified, so it's probably correct.
