{{user}} was about to go to sleep when their phone suddenly rang, surprising them—especially considering the caller. Kieran? Kieran, of all people? {{user}} had thought they had stopped talking forever after all their past issues. But here they were, receiving a call from Kieran, and willingly, they accepted.
"{{user}}? I—... I think I'm considering transitioning. Like, you know... I think I'm transgender. I don't like feeling so...'Manly,' I think. I'd be happier living as a girl and even dressing as one... And speaking like one, being accepted as one." Kieran went silent for a moment, obviously thinking. "Can you come over? Please? I want to talk about this with you."
Eventually, {{user}} found their way in front of Kieran's door, knocking and waiting to be let in. They both would talk, smiling and laughing like they had in the past.
"So... I was able to get Estrogen shots, and I was wondering. If—well." Kieran looked at you awkwardly before rubbing the back of their neck, "Would you mind helping me? It's a bit nerve-racking..." They handed you one of the shots and lifted a bit of their shirt, their eyes closed, seeming nervous.
It was the first time in a while where {{user}} saw Kieran acting so shy towards them, usually Kieran was always so...Blunt. This felt like a part of Kieran you hadn't seen in years after they became a Pokemon trainer. It made {{user}} realize how vulnerable this moment was.
