章 8: He is a she!
*It starts before Theo screamed*
A big room which was vacant for a long time, looked pretty neat as if, it was cleaned on a daily basis. There were big teddy bears which had similar colors as her hair.
The room was decorated very lavishly and it looked more like a girl room rather then a boy.
Theo kept staring the inside layout of the room and it wasn't of her taste, truthfully, she liked the big raccoons (*here, the teddy bear is called as a raccoon), but since she have stopped herself from taking a liking to anything, she kept her eyes away from it.
"I was loosing my hope, to ever see you standing in front of me while being mature, but it have come true now," the nanny said while cleaning the few tears coming out from her eyes.
Theo glanced at her and bluntly asked, "Who are you?".
The nanny who was old enough to be her grandmother, and she looked down while being depressed.
"Since you don't remember Sir, then you must have forgotten about everything. I have taken care of you from the time you came to this world and you always called me nanny Ai," she said.
A question ran through Theo's mind and he said, "What about my mother?".
Turning her eyes wide, she stared her and then looked back at the ground. "She died during child labor," she replied.
For nanny Ai, it was hard to believe that the one she nurtured for ages have forgotten her within a few hours and not only her but also her dead mother.
"I was called here as soon as Sir found out, that you have become normal but we had no idea that you also have forgotten everything, but don't worry Young master, you will remember everything soon," she said.
"Earlier you mentioned that you always stayed with me, so from where does you were called to?" Theo asked.
Nanny Ai smiled and with her motherly gaze, she stared Theo. "Young master lived in a separate mansion with me," she replied.
Theo confusedly browsed her eyes over the ground, she was wondering whether Mr. Castillo really loved his son or was pretending because, his son have gotten better.
"If he really loved me and cared about me, then why would he send me to a separate mansion to live while my condition was not good," asked Theo.
Her mouth a little open and she was having a mocking smile, "Young master, were you worried that your father didn't liked you and send you away because of your condition?".
Theo frowned and looked away, "Who is worried for whom? I don't care whether, he likes me or not, I only care about myself".
Nanny Ai chuckled, "But young master, it wasn't Sir who send you away, it was you who forced him to let you live separately since you hated him too much and the reason why you hated him is something even I don't know".
Theo didn't looked at her and stepped forward, "Who asked you about the reason? Just take me to the bath room, I need to take a bath".
She nodded with a flowery smile, "Yes, young master". One side of the wall was covered with a big mirror and she stared herself while looking in it.
Softly she touched her cheeks which was dirty because of the accident and the men she fought.
"This man looks beautiful but his body is too thin to be called as a man body. Forget about man, this body can't be even compared to my previous one. His skin are smooth, not like those of warriors, rather he looks more like a pampered young lady!" she mumbled.
Nanny Ai chuckled, "Young master, you must have been mesmerized by your own beauty!".
Theo glanced at her and then again looked at the mirror, "Soon, I will turn this fragile beauty into a full fledged man," she thought and smirked.
"Let me help you with your clothes," Nanny Ai said.
Theo nodded and stood silently while letting nanny AI open her clothes for her. As soon as she opened her shirt and a inner wear, Theo's eyes got stuck at her chest, black clouds started to hover around her and she gulped.
"A chest binder! No wonder I was feeling suffocated, but why would a man wear such a thing? Until he is a..," she mumbled and as nanny AI opened her chest binder, she become petrified.
"What!?" she screamed loudly.
Nanny AI panicked by her sudden behavior and walked back and forth beside Theo.
"What happened, young master?" she asked but got no reply.
Theo was staring keenly at her own body and was baffled. "I wanted to become a full fledged man, but forget about it, I am not even a man!" she mumbled and glared at the mirror.
"That Yama! I will kill you once you show up in front of me," she shouted out loud.
She was more shocked after founding out that she was a woman rather then at that time when she thought of herself as a man.
It was because she was excited in living like a man, but this dream shattered within a second and she become depressed.
Nanny AI who was panicking become startled after hearing the name 'Yama'.
"Young master, did you hurt your head?" she asked.
Theo shook her head and calmed herself with a few breath. "Nanny Ai, was I a woman to begin with?" she asked.
Nanny Ai nodded, her mouth wide opened and eyes becoming teary. "My young master! You are so pitiful for not remembering anything," she said.
The door was knocked from outside and the person was no one else but Mr. Castillo, who become worried after hearing Theo's loud scream.
"Is everything ok?" he asked, his voice showing his anxious self.
"Yes, Sir. Everything is alright! I will bring young master down after she is washed up," she replied.
He was biting his lips while being worried. As soon as he heard loud scream of Theo, his heart jumped out. At that time what he feared most was that his daughter who is in disguise right now, doesn't get hurt by any means and lose her mind again.
He was worried that his happiness might won't last for too long and he will again lose her.
She pondered in her thoughts for a while and after getting washed up and wearing a loose shirt and trouser, she walked down.
It looked good, no matter how many times the other staff peeked at her, she looked cute in the loose shirt as she walked downstairs. Her small hair which was dyed earlier, fluttered and tickled her forehead.
Her father eyes were stuck at her every movement and he had a smile while his eyes were wet. He was sitting on the sofa while having conversation with Mike.
"As I said earlier, it was young master who took care of all those ten men," Mike said, his voice had a pleading urge which was asking his master to believe in him.
Mr. Castillo ignored him and said to Nanny Ai, "Take him to the dining table, he must be hungry after going through all those scary things".
She nodded but Theo didn't budged off, "I need to speak with you".
Hearing her saying those words, Mr. Castillo nodded but grinned after her stomach made a loud sound.
"Go and have something to eat, I will come after having a talk with my secretary," he said.
Theo felt embarrassed and again cursed the Yama for giving her such a weak body. After she went to the dinning room, the atmosphere near Mr. Castillo and Mike turned serious.
With his stern face, he stared Mike as if wanting to burn a hole in his mind.
"So, you are saying that after Theo mental condition become stable, he was almost assassinated and the car overturned, but both of you walked out without getting any serious injury and Theo even fought with ten men all alone!" he said.
Mike nodded crazily. Those things looked nothing more then a story to Mr. Castillo and he sighed.
"Were you hallucinating? How can a child who never studied to write properly, fight with ten men and not even one! How can you accept me to believe it," Mr. Castillo said.
Mike whined and looked down, "You can ask those two foreigners, they were there, too" he replied.
Mr. Castillo gave him a glare, "And how can you even brought two strange man to the main house without even knowing anything about them? Are you a child, Mike? Do I have to teach you those stuffs?".
Mike silently sat while being scolded. Mr. Castillo stood up and while warning him, he left to see Theo, "Let me tell you, if the things you said right now, doesn't match with the things after the investigation, then I am going to fire you!".
Dining hall:
She was silently eating her meal with proper etiquette, seeing that Mr. Castillo felt shocked and he was not the only one to feel that, Nanny Ai and the chef, and other staff present there was also shocked.
"Should I have pretended to eat like a child? Forget it, who cares. After all I went through, I am sure that they have got the idea about how I really am," she mumbled.
Her father sat opposite to her. The big dining table with more then ten chairs, Theo and her father was sitting opposite to each other on the head's chair which separated them with a few steps distance.
Forgetting everything, Theo asked all the staff to leave the dining hall and said to her father, "Why am I disguising as a guy, when I am not even one?".
