Chapter 13 Summary: “Olivia 7”

The day after the courtroom revelation, Olivia finds the word “Murderer” painted on the barn wall outside. As Olivia gets ready for court, she sees Asher slowly scrubbing away the red paint.

Ava is the prosecution’s first witness for the day. She describes how Lily identified as a girl for almost as long as she lived. Her father sent her to a private school, where she was forced to wear the boys’ uniform, but Lily rebelled by growing out her hair and wearing nail polish. Her father buzzed Lily’s hair short in retaliation, leaving Lily deeply distressed, so Ava took her and left for the San Francisco area. Lily later enrolled in a different private school where she lived her life like a girl, but Ava didn’t let her get surgery yet because she thought Lily was too young. Lily’s father turned up and outed her at her new school, after which Lily was publicly assaulted and turned suicidal. Following this, Ava obtained legal permission for Lily to have the surgery without her father’s signoff, and he was furious about it. Ava didn’t see any reason to have told the State that Lily was trans; in her view, Lily was just a girl who fell in love with the wrong boy.
