After the secret was revealed, I thought it would stay within a small circle. But unexpectedly, a photo from the library was uploaded online, sparking waves of comments.

“Wait, was this person really a boy before?”

“What kind of joke is this?”

“But… wow, they’re really cute though!”

The news spread like wildfire. Within a single night, I became the center of attention. Everywhere I went, there were whispers—some mocking, some curious, and even a few fans out of nowhere.

I grew anxious, sleepless for days. Fear gnawed at me: would this affect our relationship?

But he—the one always by my side—stood firm. He held my hand openly in front of everyone and calmly said:

“They’re the one I chose. The past doesn’t matter. What matters is the present.”

That statement spread just as fast as the rumors, earning admiration from many. And in that moment, I realized: I wasn’t alone anymore.

No matter how stormy the world outside became, as long as he was with me, I was strong enough.
