Not a Girl

Rissi or Priscilla lives a rather normal childhood until 'she' doesn't. Months after struggling to sweep 'her' issues under the rug, they break out and gobble up everything normal about 'her'. 'She' bizarrely learns that 'she' is actually a boy; an unlikely yet possible turn of events before 'her' birth left 'her' mother and doctors fumbling to assign 'her' either sex. They made the wrong choice in an almost flip-of-a-coin gamble, leaving 'her' caught in an unimaginable world of chaos and loneliness. 'Her' mother downplays the issue until 'her' time to join high school when the mother has left the country and her sister then has to take over. A girls' boarding high school is no place for a boy, yet 'she' has to live like one, amongst many. In a twist of fate, 'she' meets a friend with whom 'she' grows close, really close. Their friendship, however, gets to undergo the toughest tests with Rissi's little secret eating away at 'her'. One kiss transforms 'her' life in ways she never imagined.
