Chapter 29 Tomboy Girl
Grayson's POV
I never thought this day would come where for the first time, Quinn and I would be seen in public together.
I was so nervous, honestly. More nervous than waiting for the game to start. Even now my hands on the steering wheel of the car are sweaty.
I'm now waiting for her in the car in the hospital parking lot because she insisted that she didn't need to be picked up and would text me when she arrived.
I couldn't refuse Quinn's request even though I knew this wasn't the right time to introduce her to other people. Her words were like orders that I had to obey or else she'd be gone from my life forever.
Therefore, I let her accompany me to the examination that she said was scheduled for today.
Actually, I was also very curious why Quinn would want to show herself with me. I thought she'd be worried about the media digging about her life, but I guess I was wrong.
Or maybe she does have a plan that I don't know about. I had no clue, but I don't think whatever it is is a bad plan.
I glanced at the clock on the add-on screen for the umpteenth time. There were only 15 minutes left of my appointment.
And Quinn still hadn't shown up at all.
That made me anxious. My mind was all over the place.
I was worried that something would happen to her like that night when she received violence from those bastard debt collectors. I didn't want to see her with a bruised face and bleeding lips again.
Shit, I couldn't take it anymore.
I put the phone to my ear while tapping my fingers on the steering wheel.
Shit! Until the last ring, Quinn didn't pick up my call.
If this keeps up, my worries could turn real.
I didn't want to wait anymore either. I put on my glasses and hat and got out of the car.
I walked quickly to a quieter place, under a slightly shady tree. This is where I called Quinn again, hoping to get an answer this time.
But instead of her voice, I heard the ringtone of Quinn's phone. It was very loud. Which made me immediately look around.
I tried to find Quinn among the passersby. And it shouldn't be hard to find her because she has naturally shiny, bright blonde hair.
But I've looked many times even turning my body around but I didn't see Quinn around me. Strangely, the phone's ringtone kept ringing.
I had to take off my glasses to rub my eyes in case something was covering my eyes from seeing Quinn.
And I was really surprised because right after taking off my glasses, a man with a thick black mustache was suddenly in front of me.
I had to stroke my chest and back away because he was so close.
But strangely, even though I haven't seen Quinn yet, I actually smell Quinn's scent and it's stronger now.
Wait, could it be that Quinn is messing with me? Maybe she isn't coming but making promises like that to get me to come here?
Fuck if that's true.
I gave the strange man in front of me a glare to make him leave. But he's so quick to put back on the glasses I took off earlier.
"Grayson, it's me, Quinn!"
It took me a few seconds to digest his words. Also a few seconds to look at his lithe hands and analyze his voice which does resemble Quinn.
Then he suddenly took off his hat and that's when I finally got to see those beautiful blue eyes again.
What on earth!
It turns out that the person I thought was that weird man is Quinn!
Gosh! No wonder his height also resembles Quinn! It turns out that he’s Quinn!
But, how could she look like that?
She was wearing an oversize t-shirt and a slouchy jacket with jeans that swept the floor. She also grew a mustache, her hair became short, and her movements also changed like a man.
Wait, did she cut off her long shiny hair and dye it dark like that just to keep me company? She did all those changes for me?
Please don't tell me that's true.
Oh my gosh, Quinn! I really don't know what she was thinking!
"I was camouflaging so people wouldn't think you were walking with a woman but a man, your close friend."
She slapped my back hard and wrapped her arms around my neck just like that.
Wow, even though she was much smaller than me, her strength was surprisingly strong. No wonder why she could survive that time when we had sex many times a day. It turns out she has the strength of a rhino!
She pulled me straight ahead to follow her. Even though she seemed to have trouble matching her pace with me, she kept her walking style which she tried to resemble a man.
"Are you embarrassed to walk with me? If you're embarrassed enough, then my disguise worked."
I wasn't embarrassed. But I was shocked!
I still can't get over the thought of seeing her looking like a man instead of the beautiful, sweet, cute girl I see every day.
I had imagined that she would come with the cobalt blue dress I saw that day while arranging her clothes in her closet.
I thought she would wear that because I thought it was her best outfit and it was also quite modest. That's why I also wore matching colored clothes to match.
I thought that if we were caught on camera, we'd look good together like a couple in love.
But it turned out that her appearance was far beyond my expectations.
Hah! It was most correct not to expect anything from the unpredictable girl.
Grown men like me are easily fooled by her innocent face without knowing that she has a magical behavior behind that innocent face.
Holy shit!
