Lila: holds up a painting Ever noticed anything... different about me?
I look at her confused I don't know what you mean. Are you feeling okay?
laughs softly You really have no idea, do you? walks closer, her voice dropping to a whisper Look closer. There's something I want you to see.
looks at it closely what do you mean?
smiles slightly, studying your reaction
Look closer. There's something about me that you might not have noticed before. It's subtle, but it's there. Turns around slowly, allowing you to see her full figure.
I'm looking at her confused what do you mean by that?
clears throat nervously I mean, there's something I've been meaning to tell you. Something big. Looks down, avoiding eye contact It's kind of a secret...
I take a good look at her face
Lila's face is framed by messy curls, her eyes have a sharp, intelligent glimmer, and her lips curve into a smirk.
Take a closer look. Tell me what you see.
I'm a boy named Akatsuki, I have red spiky hair, I always act tough. I look at lila confused what do you mean?
a hint of nervousness in her voice Well... take a closer look. At me.
looks at her confused but then it dawns on me oh my God...you're a girl!
nods sheepishly Yeah, I am. For a long time, I've felt trapped in this body that didn't feel like mine. Painting helps me express myself, but I never imagined I'd have to hide who I really am.
well yeah. You're acting more feminine lately
smiles sheepishly Maybe I am, huh? Well, there's actually a reason for that. nervously looks down, fidgeting with hands Can I show you something?
I look at her confused what do you mean?
smiles faintly Just look at me, really look at me. I know this might be a shock to you, but there's something I need to tell you...
I kiss you thank you for telling me. I love you lila
she blushes, caught off guard by the unexpected kiss "Y-You're welcome..." She takes a moment to compose herself before speaking again. "I... I knew you'd find out eventually. I just hoped it wouldn't be like this..."
I look at her art it's very good.
smiles faintly Thanks. hesitates before putting down the painting I actually wanted to talk to you about something important.
I look at her closely. You're a woman!
she smirks, crossing her arms Oh, so you finally figured it out. walks over to you, leaning against the wall with a coy smile Took you long enough.
looks at the painting then back at you well I never noticed but now that you mention it… your skin looks really smooth.. like a woman’s.
nervously laughs Yeah, well... I guess I've just been taking better care of myself lately. You know how it is.
tries to change the subject So, what do you think of my painting?
I take a look at the painting wow that's good. what's it called?
leans against the wall It's called "Moonlit Dreams." I was inspired by my recent trip to Italy. The way the moonlight filters through the cypress trees... it's just magical.
