A Different Angel 6

“I can feel your hands Mandy!” Richard crowed............

now we continue....

Back at home David and Helen spent a good while as he finally got his emotions under control. Helen was concerned for how this change in David would be perceived and also how others would treat the family. She was a product of her upbringing, the perceptions of those around her had a larger influence on her behaviours than she realised. There was not a lot of experience with trans individuals and the internet to her and her husband was a distraction.

David could see the conflict in his mother and he started to get concerned that she would not take what he had said seriously. The drive of his feelings and the watershed he had reached emotionally, he could no longer in himself deny who his internal personality was and seeing the worry and confusion on his mothers face was hurtful to him. He also knew that she would worry on what others would think of them if he started to present how he felt. He also had to gather his courage to do so, there was also the thought in himself that he would really be an ugly girl and that worried him also.

Just as they were both sat their in silence there was a light knocking at the front door and the voice of a young girl was heard although too muffled to work out who it was and what they were saying. David needed to step away from his mother and the looks she was giving him so he went and answered the door. Ginny was stood there with her mother and she looked at David shyly and then darted back to hide behind her mothers skirts. David invited them in and led them into the lounge and got them to sit on the sofa and went to tell his mother who was there.

As he went through to the kitchen Ginny stood up and rushed over and without warning hugged him. He was taken aback by the sudden warmth from the young girl and he gently squeezed her shoulder as he hugged her. That little voice at the back of his mind was saying to him that he should behave like a big sister as this little girl was looking up to her. Helen saw the hug that David gave little Ginny and it all clicked into place and she saw the young woman that was inside of him. She kicked herself for reacting in a negative manner. She braced herself and slowly tried to work out how she was going to help the young woman that was housed in the body of her son.

When David looked up seeing his mother stand he could see the change in her and he started to smile. It lessened the hurt he was feeling and he started to relax again and loosen up, he was surprised when a little voice at his waist giggled and hugged him again.

“why you dressed like a boy?, Ginny asked in innocence.

David almost stepped back at the acuity from the child it was as if she saw the inner person and Helen also seemed shocked. Ginny's mother hurried over and started to stumble out an apology but David waved it off with a smile. That shocked both the women and also how gentle he was being, as in himself Ginny's perception of him was obviously that he was female and maybe a tomboy. After his years of internal conflict to have someone outside of the family that open was rather a surprise. It was also liberating and he hugged Ginny tighter and then knelt to get to her level. With a giggle David winked and whispered in her ear.

“Maybe I'm a tomboy?”

“But you so pretty you shudden hide” Ginny whispered a bit loudly.

Helen did a double take when she heard Ginny blurt that out after the conversation she had been having with David and his breakdown, maybe this child had a better insight into her child than she did. Ginny's mother was trying to shush her daughter but David didn't seem to be reacting in a negative manner to what she had said. She looked closely and she could see the feminine in the young man and she wondered if there was something there. Helen and Richard had always seemed to be normal and when she had dealings with David he was a thug. This was the first time she had seen a softer side to him and now it was being overlaid with a feminine filter.

Tbc in the next chapter we continue to explore David and the girl inside.....

Awww...

Ginny is just adorable! She seems to be able to see just by looking what David's mom had trouble seeing.

Out of the mouths of babies

Young children are still close to the spirit till 9 or 10 years old, and can still see the real angel in others.

Little one sees the truth

Helen is so right, in that our lives are partially formed from the perceptions of those around us.

David was perceived to be a boy so he believed that's who he had to be, despite how he felt inside.

While Helen finally realized David's truth, it was a little girl who asked the question, bringing up the topic Helen feared to approach.

Even Ginny's mother could see the truth, and didn't appear to be appaulded at the thought.

Others have feelings too.

It is odd how we fight

Our inner selves. Yet when we lose we win.
