Doing Okay (Part 3)

I didn’t recognize my former body as it walked down the street. In fact, it wasn’t until she looking down at me when I realized that was my former body. She looked incredible. I was amazed my old body could look that well put together with nicely styled hair and a sharp blazer over a collared shirt.

Then I looked down at the tank top and jean shorts I was wearing. I became hyper aware of how messy my hair was and the Diet Coke in my hand. I tried to hide the boxes of tampons in the plastic bag next to me. I realized I was slouching, and I tried to sit up straighter.

“You look...good,” I said in a tone that was hard to hide my embarrassment.

“And you seem to be doing okay,” She responded, “I can’t imagine it’s easy for a guy becoming a woman.”

Even her words seemed to be picked better than mine. I could feel my nervousness grow.
