CHAPTER 13

~Kayle's POV~

My name is Kayle An Theodore, the only son and heir to the An Theodore marquis family. My father is known to be a workhalic and my mother is very sickly.

I don't have any siblings to play with so my parents decided to let me play with boys my age. Growing up, I realized that my interests to others is not the the same which made me think that I don't want to play with boys.

Are you wondering about my interest? I love clothes and girly ones too! I love how frilly and decorative a dress can! Boys can only have small designs and almost have the same ones as the other clothes.

So I told mother that I want to play with girls. I met some girls my age but all of them left me since they say that I'm weird for liking feminine things. My maternal cousin, Delie who was in the same age as me when I was five was sent to play with me.

Instead of her convincing me that I should wear boy clothes and do boy stuffs likw how my previous playmates told me so. She told me how cool I was when I try coordinating some dresses to her. It was fun playing with her but everything changed when she brought another girl to play with us.

"Kayle look! I brought someone!"

She was just some random girl but Delie looks so happy so I decided to play with her. Although I admit that I was jealous.

We don't have any problem playing with each other until I overheard the same random girl talking about Delie with the others. I don't have any interest remembering her name so I just call her random girl.

"I hate to say this but Delie is reallyyyy annoying, right?"

"Yeah! I don't want to play with her anymore!"

"My mommy only told me to play with her because of a business deal with daddy!"

They were talking badly about her. Even though I was only five, we are already aware if someone is talking bad about another person.

One day, that annoying girl came with Delie again and smiling like she didn't talk ill about her. So I decided to prank her, I also do that to Delie but she only cries but forgives me anyway.

I put a lot of cockroaches on her toys to frighten her and for saying bad things about my cousin. She saw the cockroaches and screams.

"Kyaaaa!! Noooo!"

She throws the toys that has cockroaches on it and cries.

"Wait! Don't go!"

Delie tries to stop her from leaving but the annoying girl just shouted at her.

"I don't want to play with you anymore!!! I'm telling daddy!"

Then the annoying girl storms out of the room. Delie becomes silent so I went to her.

"Don't touch me! When I thought that I finally have a friend, you ruined it! I don't want to play with you anymore!"

I froze on the exact place where I'm standing. I saw Delie running away from me, she didn't come back again. After that I began being a troublemaker and wearing girl clothes to annoy people hoping that maybe Delie might come back again.

I hope and hope...but Delie...I've always want to ask you that day...

Wasn't I your friend too?

After a few years of not having contact with Delie, I was surprised to know that she'll be visiting again.

Now then...why don't I try pranking her? Maybe she'll cry again and really don't come back. You made a mistake coming back.

Heh.

I'm looking at the upside down Delie today, she looks surprised to see me like it is the first time she met me. Her aura is really weird too like she became a different person.

"How are you 'hanging' there, dear cousin?"

I asked her with a smile waiting for her to cry.

"You...put me down now or I'll punch you!!!"

I was a bit surprised by her response. She usually cries and beg me to put her down but now she looks very angry. I can even see some of her veins popping out.

"Punch me? How?"

"Oh you'll see! Get me down now!!"

She tries shaking off the rope and I can see it loosing the knot. Is she serious? She'll hurt herself!

"Hey!!"

I quickly teleported at the place where Delie was suppose to fall which made her fall to me. I became her human human cushion so she won't get hurt.

"It hurts...so heavy"

I whispered as she sits in my back with my face facing the grassy ground.

"Oh! I'm free!"

She quickly stood up and jump.

"So?"

I looked at her. She looks my way like she's about to cry.

Oh? Is she finally going to cry? Will she tell mother that I'm being mean to her? Alright, cry and tell me that I'm bad like how you did when we were five.

"Kayle...I..."

She goes to me like she's about to weep. I knew it, she'll hate me again.

"You little twerp!!!"

She punches me right into my face which made me sit down on the ground with one of my hands touching my red swollen cheek that she punched.

Whattttt?!

~Delie's POV~

His eyes widen after I gave him a punch of a lifetime. Why does he look so shocked? Of course I'll punch him after doing that to me! I told him so!

"You...you should be crying!"

Ah, he thinks that I'll cry because of that?

"What's happening?"

We turn to look at the two familiar voice that we heard. It was Sara and the butler earlier!

"Young master?"

"Ron!"

Errr...I punched him...darn it

I'll get scolded.

...

"Hahaha, that was a bit funny"

The marchioness laughs softly when she saw her son with a bandage on his cheek and me looking down because I'm feeling bad after I realized that I punched him only because I'm furious.

We told him what happened and the reason why Kayle has a bruise on his cheek.

"I'm so sorry, marchioness"

I bow repeatedly and apologize over and over again.

"Don't be! Kayle needs someone to knock some sense into him! This boy has been spoiled a lot"

She pats Kayle's head but Kayle only scowls.

"I knew it, you've changed Delie! You are becoming like my sister!"

She laughs again. Was that supposed to be a compliment? Am I supposed to be happy that I'm being compared to my She-Ogre mother?

"And Kayle, why don't you wear your clothes and stop palying dress up for a while"

The marchioness told her son. Kayle just nodded and went to his room to change his clpthes.

"Why don't you two have a snack? I'll tell the maids to prepare some"

My aunt called out some maids to prepare some sweets and tea to us. I sat on the chair of the small round table with a lot of sweets and tea.

"Hey"

Kayle went to sit in my front facing me. Well, this table is only for two people.

"Wait, your long hair earlier wasn't natural?"

His turquiose long hair earlier is now short and a bit curly. He is also wearing clothes for young boys now.

"That's obviously a wig, I only like to dress up but whenever I go out of our manor or have a visitor then I wear normal boy clothes"

"I see..."

While I'm here eating the chocolate cake that they prepared for us, I can't help but notice how good-looking he is. He doesn't look like a boy because of how he acts and dress earlier. He even lifts his pinky finger when drinking his tea and is very good in etiquette.

"Are you going to punch me again?"

He asked me with his eyes closed and patting his handkerchief in his mouth gracefully.

"No"

I answered him before I ate the last piece of chocolate cake. He noticed that I have been staring at him and acts like he doesn't know.

I also noticed that he didn't touch his cake at all.

"Aren't you going to eat that?"

I pointed at the chocolate cake on his small plate.

"No, it's bad for our diet...why?"

"Can I have it?"

My eyes sparkled as I ask him that question.

"Sure?"

"Alright!"

I quickly stood up and reach for his chocolate cake to eat it.

"Mmmm~! So good!"

"..."

He narrows his eyes on me as I was savoring the flavor of the cake.

"Ah! I'm sorry, do you want some after all?"

I asked him. Maybe he is angry I took all of his cake.

"No, you really changed...before you didn't want to eat a cake nor even touch one since you told me that you'll gain weight and now..."

Is Delie really that strict on her diet? Poor her, she doesn't know the taste of these delicious foods.

"I realized that I need to eat more to grow a lot!"

That's a lie.

"I see..."

After that, there's another long awkward silence.

"Ummm...may I ask why you said that I don't want to play with you anymore?"

I see his hand flinched a bit with my question. He gave me a serious look.

"Did you have an amnesia or something?"

He raised one of his eyesbrows like he is being suspicious of me.

"I just don't remembering anything..."

Besides, Delie was only five at that time. Even I can't remember what I was doing when I was younger.

"Then let me make you remember"

He stood up and took my hands to pull into a certain spot in the garden.

He told me everything about the reason why he doesn't like playing with boys, how he doesn't have any friends and what I told him five years ago.

So Delie was angry since she thought that Kayle was the reason why she lost her first friend and doesn't know that she was being badmouthed behind her back.

Jeez. Kids are such gossippers these days. My adult self can't keep up.

"I'm sorry"

Those words suddenly left my mouth as soon as Kayle finishes what he was telling me.

"For what? You pity me?"

He gave me a smirk with a pained expression on his eyes.

"No, I don't! Why do I pity a spoiled brat like you?"

He widened his eyes at my words and laughs. I can't still see him as a boy though since he looks prettier than me when wearing girl's clothes. He looks similar to aunt Illiana earlier.

"Then why?"

"I'm sorry for telling you all those things and not realizing that you are my friend"

He looks behind me and smiled.

"Want to become friends now?"

I reached my hand to him and I took it without doubts.

"Thank you"

He muttered with a faint smile.

I wish Delie would understand him. This boy only needs someone to understand him.

I wonder if I didn't transmigrate here and took Delie's body, will she reconcile with him? What will Delie do?

Something inside me tells me that I shouldn't have done this but I don't why. Am I changing something, somehow?

"Now then"

He grins.

"?"

I tilted my head in confusion.

"Have fun!"

I was suddenly seated on a large branch of a tree where I'm many feet away from the ground.

"Why am I here?"

How can I get down??

"Hahahaha! That's your punishment! You thought I'll let you slide just like that? That's for punching my face"

He teleported me here?? Is his gift teleportation?

"Get me down!! I'm going to kick your face after I get down here!"

"Try going down first!"

He sticks his tongue out and gives me a peace sign. I hate it that he is pretty! And now he is playing his tricks on me?!

"Hey wait! Where are you going?"

He walks away from me and try to go inside his treehouse.

"Going inside"

"Don't leave me! Get me down first!"

I try standing up but I can feel the branch shake for a bit which made me hug the large branch of the tree.

"See you!"

He gave me a small wave and smile.

"Arghhhhh!!!"

My shout echoed in the whole manor.

...

About two hours had passed, he teleported back to me when he saw me staring far away.

"Hey, let's go back"

He teleported beside me and I just ignored him.

"You don't want to go back?"

He asked me. He goes near me so I decided to use this chance.

"I'm going to kick you!"

I was about to kick him when one of my foot slides on the branch.

"!"

I'm going to fall down!

"Delie!"

He took my hand and quickly teleported us on the ground.

"Ah...thanks"

I patted his head with a grin. He slaps my hand to remove it from his head.

"Stop that, you almost fell! I don't know what I'll do if you got hurt!"

He yells at me. Boy, calm down now.

"Look, I'm sorry! It's done right? I'm safe now thanks to you!"

I even flex my small arms to him to show off that I'm alright.

"Grrr...idiot!"

He glares at me before stomping his feet away from to get inside the manor.

What's wrong with him? I'm alright now!

I went to eat dinner with my aunt but Kayle didn't come so aunt Illiana told his butler to send him the food instead.

"Don't worry, aunt! I'm going to give it to him!"

I went to his room with his butler guiding him. He was the one who knock Kayle's door.

"Young master, your dinner is here"

"Just put it infront of the door"

He replied.

The butler bows his head to me before he leaves. I'll wait for him to come out so I'll sit here outside his room beside his door. I hug my knees and put my head to rest on it.

I'll take this opportunity for me and him to be in good terms again.

"Ron...?"

I heard his door slowly open before he pops his head out and finally opening the door.

"Where's my food?"

"Here it is!"

I told him with wide smile in my face. He was surprised to see me holding his tray of food.

"You! Why are you here?"

I ignored him and quickly went inside his room.

"Hey! Get out! This is still my room! A boy's room!"

I continued to ignore him and just sit on his bed before putting his food on a table beside his bed.

"Eat now, I won't get out unless you eat it all!"

I crossed my arms. He looks very annoyed at my actions.

"Fine, fine!"

He took the tray and eat it as fast as he could.

"Whoa...slow down!"

He almost choke while eating it. I patted his back to help him swallow his food properly.

"I'm done, now get out"

He gave me the empty tray but I just put it on the table once more.

"What are you doing? Didn't I told you to get ou-"

I pinched his ears to shut him up.

"Ouch!"

"Let's play first!"

"What? No way!"

"Are you afraid to lose to me?"

I sneered at him.

"Alright, what will we play?"

He asked me as I sit down on his room's carpet.

"Do you have cards?"

"You mean the one's they use for casinos?"

"Yup!"

"I do...wait"

He rummages to his cabinet and find a set of blue deck cards.

"Do you know how to play this?"

I asked him while I'm shuffling the cards.

"A little bit"

He answered.

"You know?"

He asked me.

"Of course"

I put my chin up before placing the cards.

Even though I'm not really good in playing this card, I'm still an adult that can easily beat a kid like him!

"The winner can draw something to the loser's face!"

I took an ink bottle from his desk.

"Are you sure?"

He lifted one of his eyebrows.

"Sure!"

I'll draw a large moustache in your face. Hahaha!!

After two sets of rounds and finally the third one...

"Royal flush"

He puts down his A, K, Q, J, 10 cards infront of me. My full house cards didn't even match to him!

"Come on, give me your face"

"This is the third time! You already put a circle in my right eye and an X in my left cheek!"

"Just give me your face, you're the one who suggested this"

I sighed and give up. He draws something on my other cheek.

"There, a star"

He puts down his brush and lies on the carpet with the cards scatter on the floor. I also went to lie on his opposite side that's why we are both looking at the ceiling.

"Don't you need to go back to your room?"

He asked me.

"Nah...I'm too tired to walk back there"

"You do know I'm still a boy, right?"

I giggled.

"Say, why do you like wearing feminine clothes and doing feminine stuffs?"

"Why, does it bother you?"

"No, I'm just curious"

I heard him sigh.

"I'm only interested in those things but when I go outside the manor or when there is a visitor, I wear boy clothes and do boy stuffs...I only like to wear those as a hobby since I want to design clothes one day and do it as a business"

"I see..."

"Whenever I tried hanging out with boys, they only talk about swords or training and it is so boring! That's why I prefer playing with girls...I'm still the heir of my family so I need to act like one, I wish a have a little sister to dress up with so that I won't have to use myself when I'm coordinating clothes"

"Why don't you visit me and Dahlia? We can play together! You can treat her as a little sister!"

I suggested to him. I heard him laugh softly.

"I'll think about it"

"And I hope you fulfill your wish!"

I told him before yawning and closing my eyes.

"Thank you for coming back, Delie..."

I heard him say something but I didn't hear it clearly since I'm too sleepy to ask him again.

Goodnight, Kayle...

~3rd Person POV~

"Have you seen the young miss, sir Ron?"

Sara went outside her room to check on Delie but she is not in her room so she took a magic lantern to find her. Then she finds the handsome butler earlier walking so she asked him.

"The last time I saw her was when she took the young master's tray in his room"

"Really? Then she must be in that area!"

Sara went to the direction of Kayle's room when the butler took her hand. Her heart skips a beat.

"Let's go look together, the young lady is still our visitor so it is our responsibility too"

They both head to Kayle's room to find Delie.

"Hm? The door is open?"

The butler named Ron opens the door and saw the two young kids sleeping peacefully.

"Oh my!"

Sara smiled at the sight of the children.

"It's been a long time since I saw the young master smile like that"

Ron commented as they both admire the sleeping faces of the two.
