The Fine Print✔️

Chapter 5

Perhaps I was imagining it, but when I moved away, Zhan looked a little disappointed, a little hurt, for just a second.

I don't like that look. Even if I did imagine it, I don't like it. I needed to fix it. "Nature calls." I blurt out and immediately regret it.

Why the fuck you have to say that, YiJuan!?

Zhan smiles; I wince on the inside. "Please, excuse me," I add and make a run for it like I am being chased by angry dogs. Once I have put a good hundred or so meters between us, I look around and whisper, "Weredra, are you there?"

"Yes, lad." Comes the reply from right behind me. Once again, I yelp (in a hot sort of manly way) and turn around to find the small girl smirking at me.

"Weredra, my lady, is there a way to turn me back to a woman?" I ask the creature as politely as possible. I even bow a little just to butter her up some more.

"What do you mean, lad?" She asks, looking truly confused.

I sigh, "I was a woman before you granted my wishes."

She keeps staring at me.

"Can you change me back to a woman, please? The thing down there, I don't know how to deal with it. It keeps coming in the way."

Weredra looks at me sympathetically.

 Maybe, she has a kind heart after all. Hopefully, she will change me back.

She walks closer and taps my tummy gently, "A deal is a deal. I am sorry."

"But you said you can do whatever the fuck you want once the deal is made." I try to reason with her.

She nods, "Yes, that is indeed what is written in the fine print."

"Then why can't you change me back?" I whine.

She smirks, "Because I don't want to. I like how things are at the moment. And there is another reason."

"Which is......?" I try to coax her to continue.

She turns away, "I don't want to tell you."

'What the fuck!?' I don't understand this creature. I feel like she is taking pleasure in my pain. Well, not exactly pain. I am definitely not in pain... Yet. But if things continue like this, I might be in pain very soon. 

 "At least tell me how to deal with this?" I point at my crotch.

"How am I supposed to know, I already told you, despite how I lo..."

I interrupt her, "Yes, I know you are a female."

"But you could ask that gorgeous piece of meat you saved from drowning." She says, wiggling her eyebrows.

"Shameless!"

I realize that I am not going to get any answers from her. I try to remember what LiFen had taught me about the workings of the human body, more specifically, the male reproductive system.

I immediately start thinking about my uncle and aunt. And like magic, things start getting back to normal.

Once again, I thank LiFen. I make my way back to where Zhan is waiting for me. I clear my throat, trying to drag him back from his daydreams.

He yelps a little before looking at me and smiling, "You are back." He looks away from my face, "I thought you left me."

My heart starts beating as if I had just run a marathon; I take a deep breath, "I can't do that. After all, I saved you. You are mine."
