[Kojuro]
". . . You're a woman, aren't you?"His unexpected question sends s shockwave through me that nails me to the floor.
His eyes are questioning, yet calm.
[Me]
"Ah. . .aha. . .ha. . .good one, Lord Kojuro. . ."Deciding my best course of action is to pretend as if it is a joke, I laugh and hope I'm right.
[Kojuro]
"Yeah, I thought so"(Huh. . . ?)
His quick reaction leaves me even more confused. I wind my hair around my finger absently.
[Kojuro]
"I was actually kidding. . .but they're not wrong when they say you have a comely face"[Me]
". . ."[Kojuro]
"The maids have been enjoying the fact that Lord Masamune's page looks so much like a woman. You cannot do much for your looks in this regard. . .but do at least try to keep from acting like a woman as well"[Me]
"I'm sorry. . ."Defeated, I can only apologize.
(But. . .considering that he is asking me in this way. . .means he still thinks I'm a boy, if a girly one, right?)
Strangely, that thought does bring me a small sense of relief.
[Kojuro]
"Also, I have come to tell you we will be taking out the falcons for a three-day hunt starting tomorrow"[Me]
"Understood"[Kojuro]
"Good. See that you are well-prepared to accompany us. . .and I apologize for keeping you so late"Lord Kojuro leaves the room without another word.
The moment I am sure I am alone, my knees fall out from under me, and I collapse of the floor.
(I totally thought he found me out! I have to be more careful. . .I can't slip up now. . .or my cover's as good as blown. . . !)
