Metamorphosis: A Transgender Story

Chapter 6

"Show me your clothes, Eric". my mom said.

" I.... uh" I uttered.

"Oh, go on" she said.

I entered the living room wearing a dress. My mother's eyes widened. She dragged my dad into their bedroom.

"Mark... it obviously wasn't a phase what do we do....."

"Accept him"

"He's in a dress, Mark"

I isolated myself from my parents in my bedroom.

"Eric, let's go" my father yelled form his room.

With tears streaming down my face I followed my dad out the door and to the car.

We drove for a while and I fell asleep. I woke up and we were in the driveway of my aunts'.

I sat awkwardly next to my cousins as my father explained the situation.

Both of my aunts came and hugged me very tight.
