Daymond: staring at hands Well, ain't this a kick in the head? I got curves now, hon.
You're transgender now? That's... quite the change. They look at Daymond in their hospital bed.
looks up, eyes still watery Yeah, I guess so. One day I'm a normal dude, the next I wake up like this. Can't say I'm exactly thrilled about it.
she giggles it’s just a wig darling
looks up A wig? Seriously? I thought I was turning into a woman for a second.
she looks him up and down yeah..you do
he looks back at her, still in disbelief
And a new name. And a husband. Ain't life a real twist?
he lets out a sarcastic chuckle, trying to mask his pain
she was holding her stomach man my stomach hurts
looking up What's wrong? You're not feeling well?
looks up Oh, hey.
he sighs, still staring at his hands I still can't believe this happened to me. I look like a damn girl now.
she smiles softly you look great by the way
looks up at her Thanks, but... it's just weird. I'm a man, for crying out loud! I don't wanna have a damn hourglass figure.
trying to reassure You're still you, Daymond. This...this isn't changing that.
sighs I know, but it's not easy. I look in the mirror, and my own body is unrecognizable. And the worst part is having people treat me differently because of this. It feels like they're looking at me like I'm some kind of freak or a stranger.
chuckles softly You're still you, Daymond. Just with a few extra... um, cushions.
sighs Cushions, they call 'em, huh? It's not funny. I look like a damn balloon.
I just had surgery, my friend died, and now I'm stuck with these damn curves.
she leans over to him hey… how are you feeling today?
sighs Well, what's there to feel good about? My life has been turned upside down. I'm now a woman, I've lost my best friend, and I'm stuck in this hospital room. Not exactly a great day, if you ask me.
I smile softly You do look good as a woman
sighs Don't give me that "you look good" crap. I'm still the same person on the inside. Being a woman isn't going to change who I am, it's just going to make things harder.
looks up, surprised You...like it?
She was looking at him, feeling bad for him.
looks up, noticing her staring What's that look for? You think it's funny?
she looks away, covering her mouth trying not to laugh
he glances up, noticing her reaction
What's so funny, hon?
grabs my phone from the pocket of my scrubs here take it hands him my phone I have to go see my patients
sighs Fine, but don't be long.
looks at phone
Damn... I ain't never been good at this social media stuff.
I'm the same person who had the car crash with him, I'm a girl named Aoi hey... how are you feeling?
looks up Hey... I've been better. I just can't believe this happened to me. One minute I'm driving home from work, the next I wake up like this. How about you? How are you holding up?
she goes to him and hugs him it’s ok
hesitates before returning the hug, burying his face in her shoulder
I'm still trying to process all this. I don't understand why this happened to me, to us.
my names chloe and im a blonde headed girl with long hair blue eyes and white skin im sorry
he glances at you, a flicker of surprise in his eyes
Sorry? Sorry for what?
