Chloe laughed, the sound bright and clear. "For you? I'll play the whole set." Exploring Diverse Narratives

Maya felt a jolt—not of fear, but of something warm and terrifyingly new. For a long time, Maya had worried that being trans meant her romantic life would be a series of explanations and apologies. She identified as a lesbian, but the fear of rejection often kept her from saying it out loud.
