They were married in a quiet, simple ceremony. The only guests were Cecil's family and Beverly, who had wanted to be present for the closing Chapter of the story that only she had seen begin.
Cecil, looking more masculine than his sisters ever remembered, wore a dark gray suit with a smooth, serene confidence and Shirley looked heartbreakingly young in the flesh – colored costume that was her bridal gown.
After they were married, they had both agreed that they would return to their previous way of life living together, working together as girls, as friends as well as enjoying the delights of male and female sexuality. But for this wedding this small tableau they were merely male and female.
When the brief ceremony was over, Beverly as Cecil had previously asked her took Alma and Blanche to a cafe to engage in their own small celebration. But Joanne, curious to see the place where her son would live with his wife, accompanied Cecil and Shirley with Donna to their apartment. They only stayed long enough to taste a little wine, exchange a few, meaningless words then Joanne left with Donna.
As soon as they had gone, Cecil urgently eager to tear off his hated male clothes and return to the self that he loved, Cecile changed into his comfortable and cute miniskirt and blouse… And no one would have known anything about this if Donna had not stopped outside the apartment glanced inside in time to see Cecil's transition then called, her small voice shrill with excitement: "Look, mom! Cecil's turned into a girl!"
