Thinking he was alone, Kyle dressed up in his sister’s clothes. Looking in the mirror, he wondered if he was really a girl. Just then Hannah unexpectedly walked through the doorway.
“What are you doing in my room freak?” she asked. In a panic he ran to his own bedroom. A short time later Hannah knocked on his door. “Can I have my dress back? That one doesn’t fit you anyway. Here are some of my older ones that would be more your size. Just don’t go in my room again.”
She left Kyle a box full of clothes.

This was written with the prompt dressing up provided by the Carrot Ranch January 14 Flash Fiction Challenge.
This is the second one I’ve done on the prompt, though the first one I wrote. LGBT issues are not often as crowd pleasing as other subjects…

A tragic reality for many. But Hannah made me smile. A good sister in the end. Great story, Joanne.

My mind read the last word as “chocolates.” I would have preferred those. LOL

We all need someone like Hannah in our lives: honest reactions, but thoughtful, loving response in the long run!

I think increased awareness of trans issues has made even cis people more sympathetic. Hannah probably had an inkling, even if she’d not caught her sibling before, if she had a good relationship with them.
