Elizabeth stands naked in front of the full-length mirror in her bedroom. She couldn’t get over how the hormones have affected her body. Ever since she came out to her mother about wanting to be a girl, while on vacation in North Carolina. She has been on hormones to change how she looked. The pubic blockers her doctor has her on has allowed her breasts to develop.

She wanted to be bigger than her sister. She would love to be as big as her mother, but she knew that was impossible because she wasn’t a real girl. If she had been born a genetic girl, she might have the possibility.

Her long silver, purple hair framed her head and stopped halfway down her back. A smile appears on her face, as she thinks about how she had changed her hairstyle and coloring. Ever since the day her mother allowed her to get her hair done at the salon. She hasn’t allowed it to go back to its natural coloring.

She glances down towards her puny penis and testicles. They were so small, that she wishes they would pull up inside her body. So, she would be like her sister and her female friends.

“Elizabeth, Mrs. Nagele wants to know if you’re still planning on cutting her yard today?” Alice sticks her head into her younger sisters’ bedroom.

She is amazed at how much her little brother has changed from being a male to looking like a teenage girl. She never knew he wanted to be a girl until he came out to everyone down in North Carolina on vacation.

Most of their relatives accepted the fact that her little brother wanted to be a girl. Hell, one of her cousins was a lesbian and the family accepted that. Her male cousins couldn’t understand why Elliot wanted to be a girl. They did tease and harass Elliot, but their Uncle Joey put an end to it.

Elliot faced some problems when school started up in September. They wouldn’t allow him to attend school as a girl unless he had a letter from a doctor saying he had gender dysphoria. They managed to find a doctor by the name of Maggie Winters. She specialized in gender dysphoria in young children and teens.

Once he had a letter from her saying he could dress full time as a girl and was hormones. The school agreed to allow Elliot to come to school as a girl and take part in sports for girls. As for the bathroom issue, there was only a small problem. Some parents didn’t like the fact that their daughter would have to share a bathroom with a trans girl.

Some compromises had to be made, but the school managed to come up with a solution. It was a rough six months for Elizabeth, but she found out who her friends were and who weren’t her friends.

Yeah, I was admiring my breasts and my body.” Elizabeth starts to get dress. She puts a sports bra on to wear under the short coveralls she
wears when she does yard work.

“You’re already getting to be bigger than mine.” Alice had noticed her sisters’ breasts were becoming perkier and bigger than her breasts.

A smile appears on Elizabeth's face “really? You’re not fibbing to me, are you?”

“No, I would never lie to you, sis. I know how much you want to be as big as, mom. Hell, I was hoping to be as big as, mom. But I’m happy with what I have.” Alice at one time wanted to be as big as their mother. However, when she stopped growing, she realized that she would never be like her mother.

Elizabeth walks over and hugs her big sister. They have been growing close to one another since she came out. She and her older sister were close, but never as close as they were now.

Alice returns her sister’s hug. They have grown close to one another since she became a girl. She liked her sister better now than she did before. She hadn’t realized her sister had been taking her clothes to wear either. Now they shared articles of clothing she bought at her job.
Elizabeth releases her sister and looks up at her “thank you for everything.”

“You’re welcome.” Alice places a kiss on her sisters’ forehead.

“Well, I better go and get to work.” Elizabeth releases her sister.

“Don’t forget, we're going out to eat tonight. So, you’ll need to shower and change out of your work clothes.” Alice knew they were meeting up with their mother’s new boyfriend.

He was a nice guy and was an Air Force pilot. He flew a super hornet and was a member of the Red Ripper squadron. He was also stationed at the same base as her mother.

“Okay.” Elizabeth heads downstairs and outside to the dive way.

She walks behind her white ford ranger and hooks up her lawn service trailer. She started the business when she came back from vacation. It started with her purchasing a used push mower and going door to door asking people if they wanted their lawns done.

Some people said no, while others allowed her to cut and trimmed their lawns for a reasonable price. Once word got around about her prices and how well she did. She started getting commercial customers as well. Whatever money she made, she put into two separate accounts. The first account was for her lawn business. She got a business license and became bonded. The second account was for her medical expenses. She was still covered by her mother’s military insurance since she was still under the age of twenty-one.

However, she wanted to save money, to pay for all the surgery and doctor visits she would need. Her mother’s insurance covered most of it, but some money still had to come out of pocket for the rest. She knew her mother was proud of her.

Once the trailer was hooked up and secured. She pulls her truck keys out of the pocket of her coveralls and gets into her truck. She puts her cellphone in the wireless holder, mounted near the environment controls. She selects her favorite song list and starts the truck.

She was happy her driver's license had an f for sex on it. Maggie wrote a letter to DMV and they approved letting her say she was female. Even though she is sixteen and five months old. The insurance on the truck and her equipment were expensive.

She heads towards Mrs. Nagele’s resident first. She didn’t have much to do to the lawn. It takes her thirty minutes to get to her place. She was in the rich part of Virginia Beach.

The lawn wasn’t very big. She pulls along the curb and gets out. She grabs the equipment she needed and goes to work trimming and cutting the lawn, and scrubs. It takes her about an hour and a half to finish and clean everything up.

She prints out the bill and place it in an envelope and leave it in the mailbox. Once she was done, she heads off to her next appointment. Her second appointment was a new client and when she pulls up at the address, she moans. The place was overgrown and needed a lot of work.

It was going to take her at least four hours to get the job done. She should have come out earlier to quote a better price, instead of going off the pictures the client sent to her. She grabs a pair of work gloves and pruning shears and gets to work.

After two hours of pruning, trimming hedges and cutting up dead branches that had fallen from some trees. She stops and takes a few minutes to break. Her shoulders were pink from being out in the sun. she grabs her wide brim hat out of her truck and put it on. She glances at her wristwatch and notices it was getting close to when she normally stops to have lunch.

She finishes drinking water, from her water bottle and gets back to work. She backs her riding lawnmower off the trailer and starts mulching the lawn. It takes her four times to empty the lawn trimming into trash bags. The last thing she had left to do was to edge the yard.

She figures, if she starts edging now, she could work through her lunch break and take it later. She pulls her edger out and starts edging the perimeter of the yard. It takes her an hour and a half to edge and clear the sidewalk, and driveway from the edging.

She glances at her watch and notices it was 3:30 pm.

“So, much for lunch.” Elizabeth prints out the bill and put it in an envelope to mail off.

Since this was an investment property, she would send the bill to the owner’s house. Elizabeth grabs a cold-water bottle from the cooler she carries with her. She was hot and sore from all the work she did today.

A few times people in the neighborhood would step out of their house to look at her. She noticed that the neighborhood was mixed and lower middle class. As Elizabeth was putting away her equipment, one of the residences across the street comes walking over to her.

Elizabeth could tell that the person was gay, from the flamboyant way they were dressed. A smile appears on her face. Some of the guys that were gay in the school she went too; thought she was gay.

“Excuse me, Miss. How much do you charge to do what you just got done doing here?” Kikkie like what the girl had done to the property across from her.

“As bad as this property was. I charge three hundred dollars, first time out and a standard maintenance fee of forty dollars to maintain the yard.” Elizabeth knew maintaining what she did was easier than letting it get out of hand.

“Is that forty dollars a month or bi-weekly?” Kikkie wouldn’t mind paying it either way.

“Once a month. I don’t charge bi-weekly rates, because sometimes you only need me once a month, depending on how fast your grass grows.”

“Do you do other lawn services?” Kikkie was thinking about sprucing up her front yard and back yard.

“Yes, Ma’am I do. I have a list of what I charge depending on the job.” Elizabeth reaches into her truck and pulls out a flyer and hands it to Kikkie.

Kikkie looks over it and notices her prices were reasonable. She looks back at Elizabeth “Are you available on Friday?”

“Yes ma’am.” Elizabeth only two jobs for Friday.

“What time would be available?” Kikkie had a doctor’s appointment and wanted to know if she would be here before the appointment.

“I could be at your place, first thing in the morning.”

Kikkie thinks about it and she could still be at her appointment. She looks at Elizabeth “could you look at my lawn and tell me how much you would charge me on Friday?”

“Sure.” Elizabeth puts her water bottle down.

Kikkie leads Elizabeth across the street and shows her around. She watches as Elizabeth examines the property.

“How short do you want your grass to be?” Elizabeth saw how it was now.

“About the same height, it is now.” Kikkie liked how high it was.

“Okay, since your lawn isn’t too bad, I’ll charge you sixty dollars and forty dollars a month to maintain it.” Elizabeth figures it was a good spot to start.

“Alright, can you come back on Friday morning?” Kikkie will go by the bank on Thursday.

“Sure, let me schedule, you for Friday morning.” Elizabeth taps the information into her cellphone. She schedules Kikkie’s address for Friday morning.

Kikkie watches as Elizabeth types her information into her cellphone. She noticed that it wasn’t an Ipad she was using.

“Alright, I have your schedule for Friday. Here’s my business card.” Elizabeth hands her business card to Kikkie.

“Thank you.” Kikkie smiles at Elizabeth before she turns and heads inside the house.

Elizabeth walks back to her truck and finishes putting everything away. Once everything was secured, she gets in and heads home. She hasn’t had any lunch, so wherever they go for dinner, she hopes the food is plentiful.

It takes her thirty minutes to get home. As she pulls up to her house, she noticed her mother’s car was already there. Elizabeth turns around and backs into the driveway. She gets out and disconnects her work trailer from the Ranger. She keeps her truck disconnected from her truck,
just in case she needs to go somewhere

Elizabeth runs into the house and up to her bedroom. She strips out of her work clothes and dash across the hallway to the bathroom. She had to get her shower before her sister comes home.

Once Elizabeth had washed and shampoo her hair. She exists from the bathroom and dash across the hallway to her bedroom. She felt better and smelled better as well. Elizabeth looks through her dresses and spots the one she wants to wear. She grabs her nice matching bra and pantie set and put them on.

She looks at her dress and the slips in her dresser drawer. Her mother said she should always wear one if the dress is of thin material. She grabs a nude slip and put it on. She slips her dress on afterward. She looks at the full-length mirror to check herself out. There was no way anyone could see the panty and bra she was wearing.

She walks over and sits down at her make-up table and brushes her long hair. She loved the style her stylist taught her. The silver and purple color showed through. She applies light make-up to her face like her mother and older sister taught her. She puts her favorite earrings in.

They were in the shape of birds in flight. It was one of the first pairs she bought when she had her ears pierced. She spritzes some perfume on. It was light and subtle. That was what she liked about it.

She gets up and goes to see if her mother is ready. She had slipped her three-inch heels on. They were already broken in, so she didn’t have to worry about blisters. She made that mistake at a party she had been invited to. She wore a pair of new heels and by the time she got home, she was limping and had a blister the size of a quarter on the back of her heel.

“Lookout.” Alice runs by Elizabeth as she headed up the stairs to the second floor.

Elizabeth just smears as she heads into the kitchen to grab something to snack on. She spots her mother walking into the kitchen.

“Was that your sister, Elizabeth?” Jessica looks towards her younger daughter.

She never thought her young son would ever want to be a girl. She was confused at first and didn’t know what to do. However, once she saw how happy Elizabeth was after getting her hair and nails done. She realizes that her son was happier.

“Yes ma’am. Alice just got home and headed upstairs.”

Jessica looks at her daughter and how she was dressed “you look very cute, Elizabeth. I just wish you would allow your normal hair color to grow in.

“I like my silver and purple hair coloring, mom. It makes me unique.” Elizabeth cuts a slice out of the apple she is eating.

“You know, you damage your hair every time you color it.” Jessica knew her daughter took good care of her hair.

“Mom, I like my hair to be colorful.” That was one thing Elizabeth has been doing since she came out to her family.

“That you do sweetie.”

Alice finally comes downstairs and steps into the kitchen. She had put on a nice dress as well. Their mother was wearing a nice pair of dress slacks and a nice blouse that showed off her figure.

“Are you girls ready to go?” Jessica looks at her daughters.

“Yes ma’am.” Elizabeth tosses the apple core into the trash can.

She washes her hands quickly. She looks at her older sister “shotgun.”

“Nope, I called it earlier, and, plus I’m the oldest.” Alice smiles sweetly at Elizabeth.

“That’s not fair.” Elizabeth hated it when her sister plays the older sister card.

“Come on girls, we have a dinner engagement to get too.” Jessica leads her daughters out to her car.

It takes Jessica about thirty minutes to arrive at The Boathouse. She parks her car on the second row.

“Wow, this place is busy.” Elizabeth was surprised at how busy the place was.

“What does this place serve?” Alice was curious because she only liked certain types of food.

“We’ll find out when we go inside, sis.” Elizabeth grabs her older sisters’ hands.

Jessica leads her daughters into the restaurant and is stopped by the hostess.

“How many in your party?” Lisa looks at the older woman with two younger women standing behind her.

“I have a reservation. It’s under Brewster.”

Lisa checks her reservations and finds it. She notices a member of their party was already in the restaurant.

“If you’ll follow me, please.” She grabs a few menus and leads them to the table where their other party member was waiting.

As they approach the table, an older gentleman dress rather nicely stands up. Elizabeth notices her mother smile at the man. He pulls out a
chair for each of them and pushes them close to the table. Once everyone was seated, he sits back down in his chair.

“Trevor, I would like you to meet my daughters. This is my oldest, Alice, and my youngest, Elizabeth.”

“It’s nice to meet you girls. Your mother has told me so much about you.” Trevor smiles at Alice and Elizabeth.

Elizabeth glances towards her mother and wonders if she told him she was transgender. She didn’t know if her mother would do that or how serious the relationship was between her mother and Trevor was.

Jessica noticed Elizabeth glancing at her “Is everything alright, dear?”

“Yes ma’am.” She’ll ask her mother later.

Trevor had noticed Elizabeth looking at her mother and wonder what it was about. He looks at Alice “your mother tells me you work for T.J. Max and is trying to become one of their assistant managers.”

“Yes sir. I’ve been working for them since I was in high school. I’m a department manager right now.” Alice worked hard to get where she was currently.

“Do you like doing retail work, Alice?”

“Yes sir. I enjoy doing retail work and helping people find the right fashion for their body type.” Alice had two online degrees she received for fashion and business management.

“How about you Elizabeth? Are you like your sister?”

“No sir, I’m the opposite. I have my own lawn service business.” Elizabeth was proud of her lawn service.

“Oh? Aren’t you still in school?” Trevor was surprised about Elizabeth having her own business.

“Yes, sir. I’m in eleventh grade.” Elizabeth had just graduated last summer when she told her mother and family, she didn’t feel right being a
boy.

“And you have your own business?” Trevor never knew a junior in high school would have their own business. He never did.

“Yes, sir. I started it when I was in tenth grade and when we came back from our family vacation.” Elizabeth wanted to earn her own money so
she could pay for her doctor visits and surgery.

“Have you thought about what you will do after high school?”

“I was thinking about opening a flower shop and nursery.” Elizabeth liked flowers and was considering starting her nursery.

“That’s very ambitious. Why aren’t either one of you following in your mother’s footsteps and join the military?” Trevor knew Jessica’s first husband was a military man.

“Because as nice as the service has been to our family. It’s just not in the cards for me or my older sister.” Elizabeth knew Alice didn’t want to join either.

Their waitress comes over to take their order. Trevor and Jessica order a seafood plate. Jessica loved seafood and it seemed that Trevor did as well. Alice orders crab cakes and a salad. Since Elizabeth didn’t have lunch, she orders a nice steak, cooked well done, loaded down with mushrooms, onions, and brown-gravy.

Jessica looks at her after they all place their orders.

“What? I didn’t have lunch today and I burned up a lot of calories.” Elizabeth knew she was going to feel everything tomorrow morning.

They all have sweet iced tea to drink. Trevor, Jessica, and Alice order some wine to go with their meal. Elizabeth was the only one who couldn’t drink. During dinner, Trevor gets to know Alice and Elizabeth. He could tell that both girls were independent and hard working.

By the time they finish dinner, Elizabeth and Alice knew more about Trevor. They knew he has been in the military since he graduated high school, that he has always wanted to be a pilot. He had gone to college and gotten his degree in aerospace engineering. He has been flying ever since he joined the service.

After dinner, as they are leaving. Trevor walks them to Jessica’s car. Elizabeth saw how Trevor looked at her mother.

“Thank you for dinner tonight.” Jessica kisses Trevor on the cheek.

“Yes, thank you for dinner.” Both Alice and Elizabeth were thankful for dinner. They were also shocked to see their mother kiss someone else

Elizabeth and Alice get into their mother’s car. After a few seconds, their mother gets in and starts the car up. As she drives out of the parking lot “so, what do you girls think about Trevor?”

“He seems nice. Do you like him, mom?”

“Yes, I do.”

“Then you should see more of him, mom.” Alice wanted her mother to be happy.

“I agree with Alice, mom. If he makes you happy, then you should see more of him.” Elizabeth wanted her mother to be happy.

The next day, Elizabeth gets up and gets ready for the jobs she has lined up. She had a contract with one of the local banks to tend to their
flower beds. Instead of eating out, like she normally does. She puts together a nice salad from what is available in the refrigerator.

Once her cooler is filled with ice, water bottles, and her lunch. She carries it out to her truck and secures it in the bed. She connects her trailer to the trailer hitch and secures it. She makes sure she has her favorite wide brim hat in the truck.

It takes Elizabeth twenty minutes to drive to the first of five banks she needs to do today. Once she arrives, she begins working in the flower bed. She weeds it and removes any trash that has blown into the mulch. Any mulch that has been blown away she replaces. It takes her an hour-n-half to do the first bank location.

As Elizabeth is putting away her tools and trash bags of the mulch she pulled out and replace them. She notices some kids from her school going through the drive-thru ATM. They don’t recognize her as she stands and watches them.

A smirk appears on her face, as she watches them drive off. They weren’t the ones that teased and picked on her when she first went to
school dress like a girl. No, those students had been the ones that got suspended a few weeks after she went to school.

One of her teachers caught one of them teasing her and calling her names. That student ended up being suspended for a few days. Her school had a strict anti-bullying policy and they strongly enforced it.

The next fours she does the other three banks. Most of them were easy and she barely had to do anything to them. It was the fourth one she is at, that she was going to spend a lot of time on. It looked like a hurricane had hit the place.

Elizabeth wipes the sweat out of her eyes, as she sits back on her legs. She looks at one section of the flower bed she just finished clearing of debris. It looked better than it did when she arrived. Elizabeth takes a sip of cold water from her water bottle.

She still had more of the flower bed to clear and straighten out. She goes back to work and after an hour she stops. She wipes the sweat from off her forehead, from under her hat. She glances at her watch and saw; she had enough time to do the last property.

Before Elizabeth leaves, she sits on the tailgate of the truck and eats her lunch. She was happy that she brought a cold lunch, instead of a hot lunch. While sitting on her tailgate and enjoying her lunch. She spots Kikkie drive by her truck.

Kikkie was on her way to a store she likes to shop at when she spots Elizabeth’s pick-up truck. She spots Elizabeth sitting on the tailgate of her
pick-up. She liked how Elizabeth looked, wearing a wide brim straw hat. Elizabeth looked so cute with her hair in a ponytail, her cute baby face, and the denim bib coverall she was wearing with a pair of matching blue denim tennis shoes.

Kikkie stops next to Elizabeth’s pick-up truck. She rolls her window down “taking a lunch break?”

Elizabeth smiles at Kikkie “yep, I have one more bank to do and I’m done for the day.”

“You do banks as well?” Kikkie was curious.

“I do a lot of commercial business. They keep me busy.” Elizabeth had a lot of commercial business. Between them and the residential business, she did. She could survive the winter months when things are slow.

“Well, don’t forget about Friday. I’ll be expecting you to show up.” Kikkie wanted to see how Elizabeth worked.

“You’re first on my list for Friday, Kikkie.” Elizabeth closes her plastic bowl she brought her lunch in.

Kikkie just smiles and heads on her way. She couldn’t wait to see what Elizabeth could do with her yard. She heads towards her destination.

Elizabeth finishes cleaning up and heads towards the last bank she needed to do. It took her little time to freshen it up and lay down new mulch. By the time she was done, she notices she had time to go by the store and buy the ingredients to make dinner for her family.

She pulls into the Safeway parking lot near her house. As she walks into the store, she notices some of the girls that go to her school.
Elizabeth waves to them as she walks through the store picking out items she was needed.

The people she waved too, were nice to her when she started coming to school dress like a girl. There was a big commotion when she started using the girl’s locker room. Several girls in her class protected her when some of the older girls in her class threatened her.

They didn’t care that she wasn’t a true girl. Elizabeth proved that she wasn’t interested in their bodies or anything. She looks at some meat in front of the butcher station. She spots her neighbor and client Adam Stocks.

“Hi Mr. Stocks, how has your day been?” Elizabeth had a smile on her face.

“Fine and I’m glad its almost over. So, what brings you up here today?”

“I’m looking for a special cut of meat. I want to make a special dish for my family tonight. Do you think you can help me out, please?” Elizabeth had looked at what was on display and didn’t see what she wanted.

“What type of meat are you looking for, Elizabeth?” Mr. Stocks wonders what Elizabeth was looking for.

“How about some beef tenderloin steaks?” Elizabeth looks at Mr. Stocks.

“How many would you like?”

“Can I get eight of them, please?” Elizabeth gives Mr. Stocks her puppy dog eyes.

A smile appears on Mr. Stocks's face. His daughters have played the pouty, puppy dog eyes on him.

“Yes, you can have eight of them. Let me go and cut them up.”

“Thank you, Mr. Stocks.” Elizabeth watches Mr. Stocks walk into the back.

She continues to look at the meat on display and pick out a few items. By the time she is ready to move on, Mr. Stocks comes out of the back.

“Here you go, Elizabeth. I hope they are to your satisfaction.” Mr. Stocks hands Elizabeth a wrapped bundle.

“Thanks, Mr. Stocks.”

“You’re welcome, Elizabeth.” He turns around to head back into the back to clean up.

Elizabeth finishes her shopping and checks out. She doesn’t use the self-checkout. She hates that businesses are going to them and reducing their human cashiers.

Afterward, she heads home and changing out of her work clothes and put something comfortable on. She figures her mother and sister would be home in a few hours. That will give her the time she needs to cook dinner.

Elizabeth makes sure she follows the recipe she found for dinner to the letter. The tricky part was going to be the portobello sauce. That was something she never has done before. She tastes one of the mushrooms covered in brown sauce.

“Perfect.” Elizabeth puts the spoon she used in the dishwasher.

Elizabeth works on the rest of, dinner and by the time everything is ready. Her mother and sister arrive home.

“What smells so good?” Jessica walks into the kitchen and spots Elizabeth wearing an apron.

“Hi, mom.” Elizabeth looks up when her mother walks into the kitchen.

“When did you become so domesticated?” Jessica has seen a big difference in her son, since becoming a girl.

In the past, she had never been interested in since things. Sure, she would help out making cookies and such, but never a full dinner or anything.

“I just wanted to do something special for you and Alice.” Elizabeth has noticed she has changed since going full time as a woman.

Jessica walks over and places a kiss on Elizabeth’s cheek. Her son has changed a lot since becoming a girl.

“Thanks, mom.”

Alice shows a few minutes later and enjoyed what she smelled in the air. She walks into the dining room and notices the dinner sitting on the table.

“What’s the special occasion?” She looks towards her mother and Elizabeth.

“Nothing. Your little sister wanted to do something special for us.” A smile forms on Jessica’s face.

“Elizabeth did all this?” Alice was surprised her little sister fixed the whole dinner by herself.

“Yes, your little sister did all this by herself.” Jessica sits down at her normal spot at the table.

Alice sits down as well. She tries the steaks with the portobello sauce. The steak melts in her mouth.

“Oh, you have to teach me how you made this.” Alice loved dinner.

“I have to agree with your sister, Elizabeth. You did an outstanding job with dinner.” Jessica was proud of her daughter.

“Thanks, mom.” Elizabeth felt warm and fuzzy from her mother’s praise.

After dinner, Alice and her mother clean the kitchen up. There wasn’t much mess, because Elizabeth cleaned behind herself as she cooked. She goes upstairs and takes a quick shower, before heading to bed.

The rest of the week she has a few jobs to do. When Friday arrives, she arrives at Kikkies' resident early. She wanted to see the expression on Kikkies' face. She walks up to the front door to let her know she was there.

Kikkie had barely gotten up to get her coffee when she hears someone knocking at her front door. It didn’t sound like a man’s knock. She walks to the door and looks out the peephole to see who it was. She couldn’t believe it was Elizabeth. She was wearing the same outfit she first seen her in.

Kikkie opens the front door “good morning.”

“Good morning, please come in.” Kikkie steps aside to let Elizabeth into her home.

Elizabeth walks into Kikkie’s house and couldn’t believe how normal it looked. Sure, there were a few items that spoke or showed that Kikkie was gay or was part of the Pride movement.

“So, what brings you to my house so early.” Kikkie starts making herself a cup of coffee.

“I wanted to prove to you, I could be on time.” Elizabeth takes a seat at the counter.

Kikkie just shakes her head “would you like any coffee or juice?”

“No thank you. I’m fine.”

“Your lost.” Kikkie fixes her coffee.

“So, what do you want me to do with your lawn?”

“Come out back and I’ll show you.” Kikkie leads Elizabeth outback.

Elizabeth follows behind Kikkie. She noticed Kikkie had an above ground pool as they walk by it.

“I was wondering what you can do with this back corner.” She stops in front of the corner.

Elizabeth looks at it. The spot was messy and disorganized. However, she noticed she could put a stackable flower wall in the corner.

“How about a stackable flower wall there?” Elizabeth looks at Kikkie to see what she thought.

“Could you place some lights in it?” Kikkie wanted to put some color lights on it.

“Sure, that shouldn’t be a problem.” Elizabeth didn’t see any problems with doing that.

“Good. How soon could you get started on it?”

“Right away.” Elizabeth knew it was going to take her most of the morning cleaning the spot out.

“Good.” Kikkie turns around and heads back towards her house.

Elizabeth just shakes her head as she walks to her truck. She grabs her work gloves, tools, and a hat. She starts getting to work on the corner.
Kikkie watches Elizabeth as she works. She has seen a lot of young people, who considered themselves born in the wrong body and regret it later in life. However, she doesn’t think that is the case with Elizabeth.

A Month Later:
Elizabeth rests on the donut inner tube as she drifts around the pool. She and Kikkie have become good friends since she did work for her. She met some of her friends and other transgenders she didn’t know about.

She looks over towards Jerry at the grill “when will the food be ready?”

“Soon, Lizzy.” Jerry turns around to smile at Elizabeth. He loved teasing her.

Elizabeth just shakes her head. She looks over towards the corner she redid a month ago. It was looking nice.

“Hey, Elizabeth. How did your family react when you came out to them that you wanted to be a girl?” Sera looks over at Elizabeth as she drifts on an inner tube.

“I got some strange looks and such, but my family went along with my decision. I came out while I was vacationing with my family. My uncle Joey has been my biggest supporter, next to my mom and sister.” Elizabeth was happy that her family didn’t give her a lot of grief.

Elizabeth knew sera just came out to her family. She had a mixed reaction, compared to her coming out.

“I wish my life was a little more understanding.” Sera’s mother supported her, but her father was finding it a little hard to accept.

“Just give them time Sera. It’s a big adjustment to the family for them to adjust to how they feel.”

“Thanks, Elizabeth.”

“You’re welcome.”

The rest of the day Elizabeth enjoys spending time with her new friends. They play pool games and eat food. By the time she leaves to go home. She was tired and sunburned.

When she gets home, she spots her mother waiting for her. She walks over to her and just hugs her.

“Thank you for being an understanding mom.”

Jessica was confused when Elizabeth hugged her. She holds her daughter and hugs her back.

“What is this about?”

“For being understanding about how I feel mom.”

Tears slide down from her eyes as she just holds her daughter.
