Andrea along with Mikey and Ray entered the room. I took a sit on the chair near the window and looked down towards the bustling street.As I was looking down I felt like someone was staring at me But its left the moment I paused as it was gone I didn't give it much thought and continued looking towards the streets , I saw a small boy selling sugar candy of different animal shapes on the streets and I suddenly carved to eat I looked behind me I saw Mickey as Ray had gone to bring some refreshments for me " Mickey do you see that young boy selling sugar candy I want to eat it , can you bring that for me " He said "But master there would be no one to protect you if I go away" hearing his concerns I replied " who would think of harming me here and don't forget I also practice martial arts and their are only few who can challenge me in this city , so go its only down street " " yes , young master " saying that he left As I was sitting alone I again felt someone's stare but as I looked around I saw a tea house opposite me but there wasn't anyone I thought it must me my imagination as I just had a conversation regarding my security with Mikey before he left.
After sometime Mikey returned with two sugar candy in a shape of a tiger and a cat. I ate the one made like tiger and gave the cat shaped one to Mikey to eat after a while came a knock on the door Mikey went to look at the door there stood Ray with refreshments on the tray as he entered the room Mikey took the tray from him and sent him to do his work without minding us then he left. I consumed the food while observing the streets looking at the people below their were couples ,friends and children's along with their parents walking together shoppers selling their products after staying for long I left the restaurant along with Mikey .I started roaming around the streets enjoying the foods on the stalls there were different types of sweets , mooncakes ,pancakes, rolls , noodles etc I bought some cakes and pancakes home for my parents and siblings to eat . After roaming around and enjoying the freedom as a free young man away from behaving like a proper and noble young miss it was time to return home as the sun will set soon. I took the same route from the bamboo forest that I took in the morning and returned to my room from there. After changing out from my male clothes , I told Mikey to inform my mother of my return and went to took a shower and wore my female clothes as I finished my shower Mikey was already dressed in his helpers clothe I asked him to do my hair and it was just in time for dinner as a maid came to inform . Mikey took the snakes we bought along with us to the kitchen and asked the maid to serve it after the dinner along with tea. My parents and siblings came along after some time we ate the dinner and went to have tea outside in the garden. As we had just took our seat the servers came along with tea and snacks I had bought from outside . I told " Dad, mom taste the snacks and tell me how it is elder brother , second brother you too " elder brother said took a bite of the pancake and said" hum its quite good due our little sis made them " " no it was not made by me " then second brother having some suspicion added " then did you go out and bought them " he hit bullseye seeing me smiling he told " don't tell me you went out" " yes today I went to visit the shopping area and found lots of snacks to eat and bought some for you all to taste too " hearing that both brothers had shocked expression seeing that mom and dad behaving as it was normal elder brother added " dad did you allow Andreya to go outside that too without any of us accompanying her , what if something happened to her" dad hearing the accusation replied " ahh don't look at me like a criminal it was not me and even if I did allow her do you thing I will let her go alone there were hidden guards following her " and its was my time to get shocked " dad how did I not know there were people following me" I asked . He looked at me ' do I look a fool' written on his face "I knew you will not like being looked at all the time so I asked them to maintain a safe distance to not go near you and only to show themselves if you are in any trouble" . Then hearing dad's explanation elder brother face became a little better seeing that I spoke "Elder brother Mikey was along with me and don't forgot I also am a martial arts practicer and you know my level" second brother said " Its not bad being more cautious right and you are our only sister " hearing that I felt a pang in my heart don't know whether from pain or from happiness . I thought that if my brothers ever find that the sister they pamper so much is actually their brother, how will they react? Will they fell betrayed and wont talk to me ever? Will they ever hear my explanation or will just leave me felling disgusted I returned back from my thoughts by the pain for the splashed tea drops on my hands hearing my shout ,second brother who was beside me took my hurt hand and started wiping it with a cotton cloth mom dad asked the maids to bring ice don't know when but mother was already beside me " baby are you alright does it pain more " dad came along with the ice and soaked my hand in the bowl of ice "don't worry everyone its fine its just a little burn " "just a little burn what were you thing " came a voice I saw elder brother with a box of cream in his hands. He wiped my hand with a Silk cloth and put the ointment I assume in my hands "ahh nothing I was just dazed its okk look . Hearing me mom and dad both looked at each other and then at me I came across their eyes and had an eye contact .
After everything was fine I went back to my room as I was preparing to sleep I heard a knock at my door thinking that it must be Mikey I said " come in " I heard footsteps different from Mikey so I looked towards the sound and saw dad coming by I was getting up as dad said " sit I just wanted to talk with you " "un okk " as I replied he sat by my bed and asked " son tell me what were you thinking that you got your hand scaled " hearing him asking I got socked and realized that what he wanted to ask " yes dad I was thinking the same thing as you thought"" were you thinking about your brothers reaction regarding your gender care to explain your thoughts with your dad " I signed and said " yes dad I am scared what if after knowing that I was faking my gender all along till now without their knowing will they feel betrayed and stop loving me will they dad" I started crying saying " dad will they feel disgusted from me will the hate me" seeing me crying he hugged and started patting my back trying to pacify me saying " no baby they wont they will think that you did all that for a reason and you are not on fault from the start as it was' I 'your dad who wronged you don't cry and how can they hate you you are their baby brother no matter what they will even feel angry at dad for making you suffer don't cry , will you ever forgive dad for making you suffer " hearing he say that guiltily I said " no dad don't feel guilty and sad that it was not your fault when it happened you also didn't had any choice as you did that for the betterment of our family and us so don't fell guilty I will no longer cry " " ok my brave son now sleep and stop thinking about those thing ok " saying that he got up from my bed I also said " you too don't overthink regarding the past otherwise I will feel sad and I love you no matter what " Hearing that he smiled and said " dad too loves you my son sleep well " saying he went out and I too started to feel sleepy as I was sleeping I heard the wind and felt someone near me but without being able to open my eyes I slept .
