'Silver Lining' by Max Turner

I should have seen it coming. Anticipated that it was about to happen, not literally visualised the fist flying at my face. I didn’t miss that bit at all.

When the bigot confronted me and Bryan as we walked out of the store holding hands, I guess I should have said nothing?

When he’d grunted something about “Disgusting. Two men shouldn’t blah blah.”

I’d smiled and replied, “I was born with a vagina if that makes you feel any better about it?”

So I should have seen it coming.

Was it worth it? Well, he wouldn’t have hit a girl.
