It was a rather spacious teenager's room. It's walls were painted in pastel lavender color and were decorated with various posters. Some of the posters showed images of popular new computer games, a few showed scenes from some action or fantasy movies. There was a single window on one of the walls, left slightly ajar to let in some fresh air. It was framed with dark purple curtains that were currently closed to prevent the morning light from coming into the room. On the windowsill there were a couple plants: a small cactus and a vase with beautiful orchids in it. Opposite to the window was an arch that led into a rather large walk-in closet. It was full of various clothes, quite a few dresses, some more unisex clothes, jeans, jackets, skirts and so on. There was a small collection of various shoes with some heels ranging from very low heel to a couple pairs of high heels for special occasions.
In one corner of the room to the right of the window there was a corner desk with two computer screens and small printer on top of it. There also was a small desk lamp and a couple books piled on the edge of table. There were also a few framed photos - one showing a family with five members and another showing two girls posing for a photo together. In front of table was a comfortable looking chair. Computer was hidden underneath the desk and there were a few closed drawers in the desk too. Next to the desk was small bookshelf that had various books in it - mostly consisting of fantasy or mystery books. On top of bookshelf were several figurines - mostly from popular fantasy games or anime. There were also a few more framed photos on top of the bookshelf. A rather trendy-looking student's bag was leaning next to the bookshelf, decorated with some pins and stickers.
To the left of the window was a small vanity table with a mirror. On the vanity table was small jewelry box, some makeup, a hairbrush, several types of lipstick and eyeliner. The edges of the mirror were decorated with some small photos that mostly showed a couple girls having fun together and some sticky notes with reminders. The corner opposite to the one with desk had couple large beanbags to sit on and a small coffee table. The seats were likely placed so one could see a small smart TV (that was hanging above the desk with computer) freely. The last corner of the room had a lot stylishly arranged wall shelves with numerous little trinkets on them. There were some more figurines, some small sculptures, a few photos, some decorative props from games or movies, several more books, a small disk collection that had several DVD movies and old music disks and what looked like couple photo albums. Under the shelves was drawer unit with a single framed photograph of young girl with older man, both dirty. The man was holding archaeology tools while a girl was holding a large animal skull. Both were happily smiling to the camera.
Between the shelves and vanity table there was a large bed with small nightstand next to it. On the nightstand there was a lamp, a framed photo and a smartphone. Nightstand had one small drawer that was closed. The bed itself was rather large and looked really comfortable. There were a few large pillows on it and a rather cute teddy bear. There seemed to be someone sleeping on the bed, currently hidden from view with white bed cover.
Suddenly the smartphone on night table started to vibrate and let out a rather annoying sound, earning a soft groan from the person hidden under the covers. After few moments a long feminine hand with well manicured long nails, that were dyed in red color, stretched from under the covers, tapping around night table until it found the annoying phone and pulled it back under covers. Few moments later annoying sound ended and a long feminine sigh could be heard. After a few seconds the hand brushed away the covers, revealing a beautiful teenage girl's body. Said girl slowly slipped out of bed and sat on the edge of the bed for a bit, rolling her shoulders and head with eyes still closed. After a bit she stood up and stretched, working out any kinks from the night's rest.
The young woman stood at around 5'5" tall. Her head was covered in a beautiful, lustrous mane of dark brown, almost black, hair that flowed down past her shoulders, ending around her waist. Her locks were naturally wavy and silky, framing her head in very stylish and gorgeous way. Her face was very beautiful and feminine with gorgeous futures that made her quite a beauty to behold. Her eyes were quite expressive with thick dark eyelashes and nicely curved feminine eyebrows. The eyes themselves were of bewitching emerald green color that seemed to catch the light like precious gems. Her lips were soft and feminine - they would look extremely inviting and tempting with a right shade of lipstick. The young woman had a charming, curvy and lithe figure. Her skin was smooth and hairless, without blemishes of any sort. It had a fair coloring with just a hint of very light, healthy tan. Her breasts were around C-cup, her waist was narrow and nicely toned and her hips were round, matching her figure perfectly. Her legs were long and smooth with nicely done pedicure and toenails that were painted red. Her arms were long and feminine with long, nimble fingers and well manicured nails, covered in red color. She was currently dressed in just lacy black bra and panties.
The young woman finished stretching and blinked rapidly a few times, looking around the room with some confusion. She frowned slightly and her attention went towards vanity table and the reflection of herself that she could see in the mirror. And it was then that with a rush the person, formerly known as Jon Madison, remembered just what happened and for first time got introduced to her new life.
Jon, if she could still call herself that, took quite a few moments to look away from her new reflection. She did not know what to expect after the ritual, honestly. She did not expect to wake up in her room either. She briefly checked her smartphone and noticed the date. It seemed it was next day after the ritual. So she was unconscious for a night, she guessed? Or was she? Did ritual move her back to her room or did Helia brought her here? She let out a sigh and calmed herself. It was not important how she got back here. She had more pressing matters to attend to.
She looked back at her reflection in the mirror. Wow, she was beautiful. She was not sure if she would be the most pretty girl in school, but she was pretty confident she likely was in top ten. She was surprised a bit that the thought brought out a feeling of pride in her, but just shook her head lightly, almost giggling as her long hair tickled her face from rapid movement. She tilted her head to a side a bit, watching her reflection doing the same and then smiled slightly, looking a bit amazed at the charming smile that stretched on her own face. It was not bad. Actually, she decided that she liked how she looked. For a moment she tried to think of her new name and almost as by some kind of instinct it slipped out of her lips "Jennifer". She was briefly surprised by her own voice which sounded quite like a soft and charming soprano. She decided she liked it and then brought her attention to other things.
To Jennifer the room she stood in was both familiar and not. Color pallet was entirely different. Apparently her new self liked lavender and purple tones, which were honestly not bad colors. At least it was not pink. Yuck. She also recognized some of the things she used to own in her old life. The room itself also seemed bigger - Jennifer remembered that she did not have a walk-in closet in the past either. And it was tidy. While in the past she was not a slob per say, now it was much more neatly organized. She looked a bit around, examining some pictures. She noticed a framed picture of herself and Karyn, posing for a camera. Karyn looked a bit different than she remembered, though. Longer hair, for one. Still red color, though in darker shade, which honestly suited her. More obvious change was clothes. Karyn never was girly-girl but in picture she wore a quite fashionable outfit which hugged her body quite nicely. And was it just her or did Karyn looked more beautiful? Jennifer shrugged of the though and after examining the picture for a bit more she set it down.
She looked down at herself and decided that further exploration could wait until she washed herself and used bathroom. As such almost on auto-pilot she slipped her feet into nearby warm slippers and took a lavender bath robe from her closet, slipping it on herself. Moments later she left her room and went to bathroom to start morning ritual. She found that she had no trouble of doing anything and her body knew full well her daily routine even if she herself did not gave it any directions. After a few minutes of washing her face, brushing her teeth and answering nature's call she exited the bathroom and almost bumped into someone else.
She was about to say an apology, but the words froze in her mouth as she noticed who she almost bumped into. It was Zoe. But not the Zoe she knew. The Zoe she knew was a goth that was angry at the world. The girl before her was completely different. This Zoe had a light brown hair, she was shorter than Jennifer by a bit and have slightly curves that only were starting to develop. She was dressed in light blue pyjamas and seemed to be sleepily rubbing her eyes.
Zoe blinked and looked up to Jennifer, smiling warmly "Good morning, sis. Is bathroom free?" she asked.
Jennifer nodded "Er... Morning, sis. Yeah it is." she fumbled a bit with words and suddenly felt few memories enter her mind.
~Flashback~
She and her sister were playing with dolls together, playing tea party. Another girl with red hair was also playing together as all three of them laughed and had fun.
Zoe and Jennifer stood in front of their parents, trying to convince them to let Zoe go to same school, which did not take much convincing to do.
Zoe gifting Jennifer a locket with a small picture of the two of them in it for her 16th birthday. Both of the sisters happily hugged each other.
~Flashback end~
The rush of these memories and many more dazed Jennifer for a bit and she shook her head, her eyes lingering on the form of Zoe disappearing behind bathroom door as a smile stretched on her face. "Seems we are much closer to each other in this life. That is... nice..." she thought warmly and decided she will wear that locket she remembered today to school. Jennifer then walked back into her own room and into her closet. She slipped out of the robe, hanging it back in the closet. She then unhooked her bra and slipped out of her panties, putting both in laundry basket and then putting on a fresh pair. She then thought for a bit on what to wear for the day. After a bit she decided to put on dark blue skinny jeans which hugged her legs and behind beautifully. She also put on a black satin blouse with a deep V cut that will show off a bit of her chest. On top of that she slipped on a short brown leather jacket. Satisfied with her clothes Jennifer took a few moments to sit down in front of her vanity table. She used the brush to tame her long hair and then picked up red lipstick, carefully applying it to her lips. As final touch Jennifer opened her jewelry box, finding the locket she was looking for on the top of the pile. She put it on around her neck and after looking at box a bit on she slipped on a nice bracelet on her right wrist. She had vague memory that she got it from Karyn.
Only after doing that all Jennifer realized how natural everything felt to her. She did the whole morning routine without really thinking about it and, honestly, she was really satisfied with how she now looked. "This is honestly not bad, so far. Wonder how school will go." she thought to herself and then after giving herself one last smile in the mirror grabbed her smartphone, keys and school bag, going downstairs.
Only after going down the stairs Jennifer realized that the house seemed different. The layout seemed the same, though she knew that they did not have a study before and the rooms themselves seemed bigger as well. She filed away the oddity for later and made her way to the kitchen. She could already see her mom making breakfast with her father already drinking his coffee.
Her father Adam raised his head from newspaper he was reading and smiled "Morning, angel." he said, surprising Jennifer with warm nickname.
"Morning, dad." she said automatically and her mother turned towards her as well, offering warm smile.
"Good morning, sweetheart. Sit down, breakfast is almost ready. Would you like some orange juice?" Jennifer's mom Linda asked.
Jennifer could not help but smile back "Morning, mom. And I would love some." she said, sitting down and placing her bag near her chair. Soon enough her mother filled a glass of orange juice and placed it before her. Jennifer thanked her and sipped from the glass slowly.
Only couple minutes later Zoe walked into the kitchen as well. She warmly greeted her parents as well and sat down on a free chair. Jennifer took a few moments to examine what her younger sister wore. Zoe was wearing light blue jeans and a white T-shirt with a popular band's logo on it. Around her neck she wore a small heart-shaped silver pendant. Jennifer could remember that she gifted it to her and smiled a little.
Zoe smiled back as well as her eyes slightly glanced at the locket Jennifer herself wore "Looking good, sis." Zoe said with a grin.
Jennifer grinned back "You too."
A few moments later the last family member walked into the kitchen. Jacob did not change at all from what Jennifer remembered. He still seemed to prefer to wear shorts and T-shirt so he could move around freely. He always was a rather sporty boy. He did greet the family as warmly as Zoe, though, so Jennifer guessed that they all got along well enough. Though she imagined that growing up with two older sisters was not easy for him.
The breakfast itself was pleasant. Both of Jennifer's parents engaged their children in conversation and Jennifer could not help but smile at pleasant atmosphere around the table. Conversation drifted from daily activities to plans for weekend to studies and so on. Jennifer listened to everything with attention, chiming in to comment when she felt she needed to or to tease her too siblings lightly. It was nice. Much nice than it used to be. As such Jennifer could not help but keep smiling.
Breakfast ended too quickly for her liking as both Zoe and Jacob rushed off to school ahead of her. They made quick goodbyes, giving hugs to both her parents and her and then left moments later. Jennifer finished her breakfast too and got from her seat.
"Thanks for breakfast, mom." she said to mom, giving her a hug. She then turned towards her father and gave him a hug too "Bye, dad." she said sweetly.
"Bye, sweetheart. Say hello to Karyn from me." Jennifer's mother said to her.
"Bye, angel. Have fun at school." her father added and both of them waved her goodbye.
With a smile on her face Jennifer exited the house, looking forward to the rest of the day.
