"So what do we do?" Mrs Monroe, Alexis's mum asked her husband looking confused…..i mean should we just allow her go to an all boys school like that?
She's a girl and I wouldn't want her to influence her junior sister ... ".So what are you saying we do huh?" Mr Monroe asked….just as a knock came in
They glanced at the door for some seconds before saying "come in"
It was Alexis
Alexis pov…..
I pushed the door open slowly...pausing for a moment before stepping inside,the look on their faces hit me so hard,the confusion,the exhaustion and the kind of expression that made my heart ache with guilt…and i knew i was the reason for it
Ever since i was eight i preferred boy's clothes and it was all for a reason and my parents understood,they made me look comfortable and even though i stood out, the rejection from college after college was just too unbearable for them
Yesterday at dinner,I told them I want to attend Sterling Academy, a school with two campuses, one for boys,the other for girls,but I told them the all boys campus and here we are
"Mum…Dad" I said with my mouth searching for the words that would coming out of it next…..yes "we were…..um…yeah were just" she wasn't sure what to say,i could tell from the look in her eyes and the way she caressed my dad's palm
"We were taking consideration into what you said last night and honey I don't think that's a really good idea" my dad said as if not knowing what else to say i could feel all what they were feeling and honestly it hurts so bad
" I….i…. I don't want to bother you guys anymore….i don't want you guys to keep on going through this
Mum…dad I'm tired of seeing you guys like this worried leaving the principals offices down….. rejection after rejection it hurts so much ... .i can just barb my hair and all it takes to go to an all boys school hiding my identity...i said with tears streaming down my cheeks…my mum held my hands looking into my eyes she said…"honey we're fine,you don't have to worry about us we love you so much…. We are just worried if it's okay to let you go to an all boys school, hiding your identity and acting like a boy that you're not….. it's not…it's not okay it might be hard for you my darling you're a girl You're still my little princess she said looking away from my eyes and looking at the picture frame on the nightstand close to her bed….in the picture i was wearing a princess gown and my crown
I could still remember that day. It was a sad day and I hate talking about it. It was when I was 8 years old….. Yeah I know you might be wondering how come i was wearing a princess gown.
