Hair Disappointment

T.W. Bullying

"Pffft. Lol! Your hair looks ridiculous!"

My 'friend' laughed at me, arms crossed across her chest in a judgemental way. I lowered my head and pretended to be interested in the little movements the bark chips were making from the wind. I wished she would shut up and keep her thoughts to herself.

"You look like a stupid and idiotic boy!"

She said, adding more worries to my overflowing brain. It was true, i hated how my hair looked and I knew she would go off on how ugly it looked as soon as her eyes caught sight of me. 

"Get a wig or some crap would you? I should literally call you Bob or something instead of your actual name!"

Call me Will then! I thought. But knew it would never happen. I had brought up the fact that it would be nice if she called me Will but she said that was a boy's name and that I suck. Well, a matter of fact, I want to be a boy! I had never dared to say a word about me being transgender to her. I knew that she would everyone a was a ugly creep who wants to change her and I didn't need that right now. Even the thought about having hundreds of people judging me every day and gossiping about the 'transgender kid'  was making my stomach fill with large energetic butterflies. So, I was going to have to deal with it.
