Gender-bending
Wednesday, June 20 | 0 comments
Something that shouldn’t occur in their life just happen, making it’s impossible to be impossibilities. As Namine, and Refia’s orbs become wide; they couldn’t believe what are showing in their eyes. When the smokes around the workshop has cleared completely, they completely sure what just happen to their workshop friends. Chloe, Harumi and Aritsu just had their gender changed into opposite ones.
[A/N: This story is actually another random oneshot of Lunar Academy. This scene will take place where the main character (Namine) has reached her second year. However, I just wanted to write this scene... because I don't think anyone will read a story from an ex-queen, right? (mood-swings, baka... or it's true...)
Genre: Gender-bending, slice of life, school life, shoujo, fantasy.]
I rested my head on the fountain wall, looking at the cloudy sky where the rains come from. Being watched by other peoples didn’t make any changes in my mind on stop laying down there because there is an advantage of being the way I am. If I was a girl, this would cause attentions but since my gender is changed. I think… nobody will care what I do. I can just around, climbing trees, playing in a place where there are no peoples and do many things that girls are forbidden to do because it’s ‘not a lady’ would do. As the rain pours, I smiled as I have been crafting to do so much things that I have always wanted to do.
While I was closing my eyes, I heard a footsteps coming closer toward me. I revealed my sky-blue eyes to see who it was. “Harumi… You’ll catch a cold if you stay like this.” He said to me but I just smile and faced back to the sky.
“Haha don’t worry about me. I can deal with it.” I replied to him.
Silent fell after what I said because I don’t think I need to say anything else but there must be a reason for him to come here, right? Is he going to help them returning my gender to normal?
“Harumi, it’s already been seven days since you and the others gender changed. It’s time for you to return back the way it was… and that is being a female. This is the last chance to return or you will stay like this forever.” He explained to me but it doesn’t concern me. I like the way it is now. Not being tight by stupid rules such as always stay clean, walks like a lady, always be polite, control my manners and BE a lady-like… with this… I’m finally free from those ‘ladies’ rules.
Without changing my gaze, I just reply decision bluntly, “I’m going to stay like this. I don’t want to return to way it was.”
“Harumi… don’t say that. This isn’t your true self. When you return back, you can finally be your true self; the real self that you always been.” He uttered and waited for my respond.
Hearing what he said has made me revealed my eyes and changes my position from lying to sitting of the fountain wall. “I’m sorry to say that… all this time… I have always hated my true self.” I replied as I swing my legs front to back recently. “I hate myself for being obedient to the rules; the rules that you will never understand… the rules that chained me for what I really want to be. I want to change myself because I have always hates myself.”
“But Harumi…”
“I’m sorry. I don’t think I want to return.”
Suddenly, a loud ‘thud’ can be heard as he walks toward me and hugged me firmly yet, gently. I was confused and wondered why did he do this? “DON’T SAY THAT!” he yelled out loud which made me stumble and frozen. “I have always liked you the way you are, Harumi. Yes, you are obedient but you are strong… very strong and nobody realizes it. Whether you are female or male you always can be the way you want although it’s a different solution. If you stay like this… aren’t you running away? Plus if you stay like this… you can never be your true self because you have to understand that you are not a male.”
His words made me shocked once more. I wanted to push him away but I just couldn’t because what he said it true. I am running away right now. “You can never show your true self if you stay like this and I don’t want that because… I have admires the Harumi I saw a week ago. She is female but she can do whatever she wants. She will be the person she wanted to be. She always finds a solution to be herself without anybody stops her. Yes, the Harumi that we all know.” He said and releases me to kneel down as he gently held my hand, kissing it. It is a sign of admiration which has successfully made me cried.
