I Swear, I Am Not A Cinderella |Book 2- The Fairytale Academy|

Chapter 39: |Breached A Wall Around The Heart|

Fairytale was a busy city. Noisy streets, crowded people and loud venders were the common. If you take a straight road through the Abbey, you would see the humble yet elegant looked cafe. If you ask Lady Marian, who works on that Cafe she would say though only nobles are allowed on this place, the cafe was still equally crowded and noisy like the rest of the streets in Fairytale.

However, the certain with four unusual people remained silent. There was a pin drop silence though there were two awkward fiery faced girls, one red faced boy and one pretencious calm Silver Lion student who was trying her best to hold in her overflowing emotions.

Delicious desserts were kept before them. But, none dared to take a bit. Exceptions were welcomed though.

Merida took a big bite of her donut and looked at three awkward people before her for the nth time. It only took a matter of minutes to burst into another round of laughter as her gaze fell on the still flustered Robinhood.

"Seriously... You thought Anastasia was a guy..? But.. how? Since when?? Can't you see that see that she's clearly a girl with boobs and no Adam's apple?"

Merida cracked and looked at me. I glared at her obvious teasing.

"Since the first day!" Robinhood replied immediately. "I mean, I know girls respect their personal space. I might be dumb but I am not dumb enough to not know how to treat a girl!"

He protested with all his might.

Lady Marian who was sitting beside Robinhood knocked him for the second time.

"Shut up! You are dumb alright. But, I never knew you were dumb enough to not find a gender..?!!"

Lady Marian was extremely frustrated.

"But.. How can I when Rottenstien wears pants and shirts all day? Her haircut is short too..!?"

Robinhood cried.

"You did see her in a gown on that day..! At the rain alright..??! How come you not discover then..?" Said Lady Marian.

"Yeah. I am curious about the same incident.. You called me ugly that day too." I leaned on the table curiously.

"Oh.." Robinhood scratched his head with the most goofiest smile. "I thought you were into crossdressing Rottenstein.."

I was speechless beyond all words.

"I am okay with it since you are my friend.. But, I was worried that others might bad mouth you.."

Merida just couldn't hold it in any longer even if she tried her best to dig into the sweets. She almost dropped from her chair in laughter with red eyes that had gathered too much tears.

"Ahh.. I can't. My stomach is hurting. I think, I might die with laughter if I am here."

I pulled Merida from the floor and made her sit on her chair again, frustrated. My temper was on it's peak.

"But.. Robinhood really.. You were clever enough to suspect that I was cross dressing but still dumb to not suspect me as a girl..? I mean, I do know I get misunderstood enough by other people for my manly looks..But, couldn't you who was my classmate for almost half an year get it right?"

I yelled at him.

"Yes. Yes. I know but.." The stumbling Robinhood closed his face with his palms."You are just too cool, strong and powerful than any of our classmates that I could never suspect, you might actually be a girl..!!!"

My face abruptly wrapped up with a thick fluster and tapped on the table agressively.

"Don't call me that! This is the exact reason why people think you are flirting with me!"
