I grabbed my laptop from the table searching tabs for hours, searching for a cure for anything that can help me escape this misery.

Until a screen popped up my laptop window and there was a beautiful women with pale skin and long dark hair, her background seemed dark and she had long dark eyelashes and baby blue eyes that I can't seem to turn my focus away from.

"Hello" her voice was very calm yet relaxing

I glanced at the screen afraid to open my mouth to say anything

The words won't come out my mouth but I just faked a smile for return 

Her smile turned into a frown as she looked at me in pity

"Come closer to the screen" 

I obeyed and scooted closer to my laptop as my anxiety level rises

"I can see that you're hurting, stop hiding it little boy" 

Should I open my mouth to speak? To reveal the secret that I'm biologically a female? Should I just stay mute? Or let her know I'm a freak?

"Can you talk?"

I shook my head

"I'm here to help you"

Yeah, lies.

"You shouldn't be afraid little boy, others might have rejected you but I promise you I'm here to help you"

A silent tear rolled down my cheek

There was a long pause after this 

"Are you okay..."

I shook my head holding onto myself before I start breaking down.

"No.." I paused.. "I'm not okay" I whispered

"I cannot take it another day in this body please, I was born in the wrong body. I beg of you I need someone I need help I'm a freak and a weirdo and I have no one!"  I said the last sentence as if I was screaming

Her eyes widened in surprised of the sound of my voice she seemed surprised as if I was a baby talking for the first time ever

"I'm transgendered, I'm a MTF (Male-to-female) I know how it feels to be in the wrong body and I've suffered so much. Do you notice why I'm here in the dark alone?"

My body stiffened and I was shocked to hear that. There was somebody actually out there, maybe not an FTM but still someone that knows what its like. I tilted my head awaited for the answer

"It's because I ran away from the harmful society, those people are so cold and heartless. I locked myself up in this dark cold room just to feel safe. We're weirdos of society. I've could never guess you were transgender"

 I also never could have guessed that she was trans, she looks so beautiful and pure and why could such a beautiful person suffer so much?

"I'm trapped." I said loud and clear

"Someday you're going to break through, there's always a little hope" She gave me a warm smile as the window screen webcam faded.

I shut down my laptop. I went to bed and the weight on my shoulders wasn't as heavy as it used to be. "Maybe there is a little hope" I smiled to myself as my eyelids slowly dropped.
