”(Author note: the 5K ending with a high-five from Chuck Norris is a real thing: https://www.runnersworld.com/news/a25992522/chuck-norris-5k/)“Yea..., no, I don’t want to do that.”“Okay, so next is, obviously, when it’s scheduled. You don’t want to sign up for one that starts at 2:00 in the afternoon in the middle of August.”“Don’t most of them happen in the morning?”“Yeah, more or less, but the point is more that it’s hot and humid in August and you might not want to run in weather like that.. She asked me pointed questions. Could I live with Tim being with the another woman? How would I handle if I knew he took her on his New York or to Atlanta trips or met her for a night? Could I accept that or would it eat at me? She suspected I would be jealous and hurt. Am I willing to take the risk?’ Her questions continued to play in my mind for days. Jealous is a powerful emotion that could destroy us. Why risk it I asked myself. I would have jealousy, but why and to what degree? My mother. The idea was actually quite attractive: Spending the evening with tworeally hot girls talking about my favorite hobby, which was now out inthe open. I paused and thought about how Alli would react to such achange. Anita seemed to read my mind, as was frequently the case."It'll be better with Alli too," she said. "I know her pretty well, andI'm telling you, her biggest beef is going to be keeping secrets. Get itall out. The clothes, the makeup, the secrets, everything. I'll help youmake your. Is that something you would like to have happen to you?" Yes." You will need to go to a doctor to get the hormones and surgery and hewill want you to talk to a psychologist and that will take a lot of timeand time is not something we have a lot of. You are entering puberty andyour body is sending male hormones throughout your body. These hormoneswill make you more like a man and make it harder for you to look like agirl. I will continue to try to convince the others that you need to seea doctor.
