I don’t know how long it was before the door opened again; this time to reveal Aaron and my dad. I didn’t know what to say to them; so I just stared at them as they walked over to my bedside.
Looking at me, dad said, “It’s good to see you’re finally awake, Brian.”
“To be honest, I’m hoping this is a dream.” Sighing, I said, “That I’m going to wake up and still be a boy.”
“I’m sorry, kiddo. But,” looking at me, Dad said, “This is real.”
Looking at dad, tearing up, I said, “How could you let them do this me!?”
“I didn’t have much of a choice, Brian.” Taking a breath, Dad said, “This was really the only viable way to give you a normal life.”
“Normal!?” getting angry, I said, “You call waking up to find you’re a girl NORMAL!?”
“Calm down, Brian.” Trying to calm me down, Dad said, “This is a big change for everybody!”
“I don’t see your world completely turned upside down!”
“Brian.” Looking at me, Aaron said, “This hasn’t been easy for us; you being a coma for 6 months.”
“Forgive me if I don’t care about you’ve been through; my life is over!”
Rather than try to reason with me, Dad simply turned and ushered Aaron out of the room. Before closing the door, dad turned to me and said, "We'll talk later, when you are able to stay calm, young lady."
Hearing that, I burst into tears as the door closed. As I cried, I wondered why I was being so emotional all of a sudden.
