Recruit Times

Part 2

,,Y/N, it's time to get up or do you want to be late for the registration into the training corp?'' my mother screamed from the kitchen up. I blinked a few times and then sit up on the small bed. The sun was shining through the window and the birds were singing. Today was a beautiful shiny day. I sighed and then stood up. Little by little my sleepy mind became clearer. Everything that happened last night came into my mind and I was still shaking like aspen leaves. It was dumb idea to ask my mother after this bastard of father. But I couldn't wait. I was so curios about him. Who he was and why did he left my mother with an unborn child? My mother hadn't told me anything about him and so I began to search her belongings. The only thing I found was a letter with the signature K.A. Who has written this letter and why was I involved? I scared away my thoughts and got ready for today. Hastily I got dressed into a wide trouser and tried to bandage my breasts. I never really had big breasts so it worked more or less. I also hadn't have big hips or something like that. At home I was the girl my mother used to raise but on the streets I was a boy, named Jo L/N. I never really felt like a girl. Maybe it was because my mother always told me how much she wished I was born as a boy. As a little child I always dressed as a boy just to please her but when I hit puberty my breasts have grown just like my hips. Since then I have been wearing oversized T-Shirts and trousers. I got down the stairs yawning and greeted my mother.

,,Good morning, Mother.''

,,Good morning.'' she said dryly and turned her attention back to her coffee and the newspaper. I knew I was just a disappointment for her and nothing else. She doesn't love me and I knew it. I knew everything. She hates me but she loves my father and thats the only reason why I am still alive. I was an illegitimate child and this brought shame on her. After I enrolled in the training corp I'll hopefully never see her again. With this thoughts I went through the door onto the streets. The last thing my mother said to me was, was that I shell go and die. I walked down the streets of Trost to the location were you can sign in for the Corps. The small children were playing with each other and one of them ran into me. It looked at me with a shocked expression and apologized then it ran away to it's comrades. I chuckled slightly and made my way to the market place. Mostly of the time the streets full with dealers, who dealed with all the things you might need but today the streets were overfilled with people, animals and kids. They were full of life and with love. Instinctly I grabbed the necklace around. My mother gave it to me and told me that it was a gift from my father. I didn't know why she gave it to me. A little diamond was placed on a silver chain. It was actually a real expensive so why hadn't she sold the necklace? It doesn't matter anymore. I will never see her again. I hadn't noticed that I reached the place to sign in so I bumped into a tall blond young men.

,,Hey, watch out where you're going, little boy!'' he said and looked down on me.

,,I'm sorry I haven't seen yo-.'' I stuttered and looked at him. Wait. That couldn't be. He was the boy, was he? No, no that couldn't be him. I was shocked and he noticed it.

,,Are you shocked to see such impressive eyebrows or did you hurt yourself?'' he asked and I stuttered:,, N-n-no, I'm okay. Are you going to sign in for the Corps?''

,,Yeah and you?''

,,I'm going to sign in too but why are you going to the Corps?''

,,Oh I want to proofe something and yeah. You?''

,,I want to explore the world.'' I responded shyly.

,,Interessting.''

,,Yeah.''

I knew it. It was him. He was the boy I waited for when I was a kid.
