Chapter 92.

Billy Jane.

Wednesday, July 23rd. A month later…

My name is Jane Azure, popularly called 'Billy Jane.' I didn't choose Billy for myself. Dad did.

You see, he had these friends, who all had sons. The Tenshaws amongst others. And when I turned out to be the only kid he was privileged to have, he decided to accept me the way I was and turned me into a man, by himself. He named me Billy, because of my love for dollar bills as a kid.

So as a kid, the name kinda stuck. And anything to make daddy happy.

I acted like a boy. I snorted. I spat like a boy. I climbed trees and fences like a boy. I even played foot ball like a boy. I was dad's favorite. Mum always had a fit, because she wanted me to grow up into a young and beautiful woman like my cousins; my dad's elder brother's daughters. But I was bent on making dad happy. So I ignored her tantrums. I became a tomboy.
