"Oh, Ti-Ti, I keep thinking you've been fooling us all the way long, you know" Gabriella commented. "Gosh, there's, like, no way you actually have something between your legs! I mean, just look at you. How is that even possible?" she asked, making Timothy blush.
That was one of the times Timothy wished Kate were there, as she would certainly scold Gabriella for being so obtrusive. But Timothy knew he wouldn't have the girl by his side that night. Kate's mother was away for some days, and Kate would need to stay home to look after her grandmother, who wasn't feeling well since the previous week.
During the past few days, Kate had shown concern for Timothy, insisting for him not to attend the Gala either. "Why are you going to do this to yourself, Tiff? I know you don't want to go out with the stupid cadet that your dad introduced you. You were the one who said he looked at you like you were garbage. Why are you going then?"
The truth was that not even Timothy knew the answer to that question. Deep down, he felt it probably was just because he wanted to humiliate his father even further, knowing how miserable the man would feel being forced to introduce his feminized son to everyone who served with him. But was that really worth it? It was what he kept wondering...
Early in the week, Timothy had thought of a plan to avoid going to the Gala with Donovan Mills. The feminized guy would simply tell his father he already had a date, and had forgotten about it before. No, it wasn't the best plan in the world, but Timothy was sure it fitted his airhead-girl characterthat his father hated so much. He knew exactly who he would need to ask for help to make this plan work... Martin. Timothy felt like a horrible person for asking Martin to take him on a fake date knowing the guy had feelings for him, but he was completely desperate.
However, Martin didn't show up at school that day, and didn't answer any of Timothy's texts. Timothy knew it wasn't that unusual for Martin to disappear for a day or two when he was involved in some important project, like a new meditation technique or counting how many fireflies there were in the town, but when Martin still hadn't shown up on Thursday, Timothy started to get seriously worried – so worried that he even went to his friend's house to find out what was going on.
He was received by Martin's mom, which was kind of embarrassing for the feminized guy, as he knew the woman since he was a kid, and that was the first time she was seeing him as Tiffany. She just praised him, though, saying that he looked pretty, and pointed out she should have realized that deep down he had always been a girl way before. About Martin, she vaguely explained that he had to leave town for a few days, but she believed he would be back soon.
That really wasn't what Timothy had hoped to hear, as now it seemed he would have no choice but to go to the Gala with Donovan...
