The woman's look of concern returned. She was genuinely worried about her, which made Karyn feel a little better about the situation. The woman obviously cared about her. Apparently, their relationship transcended sex. (Karyn didn't really want to think about that - she was absolutely sure that she was still only interested in boys, not girls, even if the facts of this new reality said otherwise.)
"Okay," the woman said, sitting down on the bed. "My name is Laura Ferguson."
"Wait, you mean the mother of Nadine Ferguson?" Karyn asked. Nadine was a prudish Baptist girl who went to school with her. From what she could gather, her whole family was like that. Except now ... things were obviously different. No way could Nadine's mom be a lesbian before. Her family's values would have made that kind of lifestyle impossible.
"Yeah, that's right. Nadine's my daughter. So ... you do remember something, right?"
"I know who Nadine is," Karyn said. But I'm not sure how she could cope with her mother being a lesbian ... or is Laura bisexual instead? Not that it would make much of a difference, to Nadine, she thought.
Laura sighed with relief and smiled. "That's good. At least you remember one of your sex partners."
Karyn's head snapped towards Laura so fast that she could hear her neck creak. "My what? Wait a minute, are you saying that I'm with Nadine too?"
"Well, of course. We're all together. The three of us," Laura said, matter-of-factly.
Karyn couldn't believe it. Not only was she supposed to be a lesbian in this new reality, but Laura Ferguson was a lesbian too ... and so was her daughter! The old Laura would have rather died than even think about living a lesbian lifestyle. But this was even worse than that, because she was also committing incest!
"Mom? Is Karyn up yet?" Nadine asked, walking into the room, dressed in just a demi-cup bra and a pair of thong panties. She was definitely a lot more "sexed up" than Karyn could ever remember. The original Nadine would have frowned on such a display of the female body and would never have done something like that herself.
Nadine smiled when she saw Karyn. "I always liked you in that negligee." But then her smile faltered when she saw the looks on the faces of her mother and Karyn. "What? What's wrong?"
