Stephanie Part 4 Discoveries

Even though two people had managed to pass through the first filter and listen to the podcast, there were no phone calls, then one evening there was a ring on Stephanie’s phone.

Stephanie pressed to receive the call and put it on speaker phone for Graham to listen.

A broad Scotts accent said. “Am I through to the Help Line?”

“If it is the Help Line you read after the Podcast, then, Yes.”

“I am told my name is Kirsty, although until two days ago it was Hamish. I am sitting with Kirsty’s Mum, Lucy.”

“Where are you?”

Sometimes death isn't the end. Sometimes, people can come back with new lives and new powers. This is one of those times.

This is a serial story with litrpg and gamelit elements.

Our daughter’s silence was a persistent worry, for I suspected that it wasn’t a mature response to the need for silence but rather a conditioned reflex, no doubt beaten into her. Ish didn’t have my character quite right, for there were times I was pretty sure I could kill, and if I had encountered ‘Mr Rattan’ or whatever his bloody name was, I am pretty sure the firing squad he met would have been redundant. Save the bullets, boys, the bald round-eye over there has fists.

Chapter 13.

The new neighbours had expressed a desire to see inside Broadcasting House, so it was a big group who were escorted to the studio where the show was to be recorded. It was set up for TV, and the presenter apologised for the change in format.

“Since you were last here, you’ve all gone from strength to strength. This will be a special on both One and Three, as your appeal covers both demographics. If you can go with our make-up girl, she’ll give you the matt skin that looks better.”

I live on the outskirts of the city of Shanghai. My name was Jun, meaning “talented” or “handsome”. I had just turned eighteen and graduated from high school a couple weeks later. I was lying in bed one night, tossing and turning, because I was not at peace inside. Inside I was a girl, but I had been born a male. How was I ever going to be at peace? The Chinese government had banned the online sale of hormone replacement therapy drugs, and there were so many barriers in the healthcare system. I was at a loss as to how I could possibly transition.

It was a much quieter evening, without the extra small persons, Paul and Paula collaborating with Maz to produce what she called a traditionally untraditional nasi goreng, and the ensuing conversation nearly broke me. I have no idea why, but as Maz prattled on about tradition preceding religion, and the central role pigs had always held in ‘Austronesian’ culture until the arrival of Islam. I had some very sharp memories of those first barbies together with Kul and Geeta, where she had avoided neither alcohol not pork.
