The Prodigy Boy Is Actually A 25 Old Girl!?

Chapter 9 - Ch. 9 Tricking The Innocent Kaylee

Her face, which had looked lively before, now turned white and panicked, thinking about what would happen if Mister and Mrs. Larson found out that she was disguising herself as their youngest son.

What should she do? Wouldn't it be safer if she stopped this act? After all, Nicholas had already been accepted into university, so her role as 'Nick' was already over.

Tap!

A gentle pat on the shoulder interrupted her reverie, and sudden bursts of laughter assaulted her ears.

"Hahahahahahahahahaha… oh my god! Do you believe it?"

Kaylee's forehead frowned even more cluelessly, and she just stared at her best friend in confusion.

"Darling, my brother is just kidding. Our parents won't do what he says. After all, they already knew and agreed to our plan. They know that Nick doesn't want to go to college because he already has his own band."

Kaylee gave Nick a look of exasperation and anger. How dare this kid to scare her to death?! She almost got a heart attack!

Even though there was so much she wanted to complain to the teenager, Kaylee still didn't make a sound and clenched her jaw.

This was the weakness of the introverted Kaylee. She easily believed what other people say without thinking that there might be a chance that the person was tricking him. There were not a few people who want to take advantage of it and lie to her skillfully. That was why Kaylee preferred to seclude herself and keep a low profile so that no one was aware of her existence.

Instead, she wished she had supernatural powers that could make her invisible… which was such a childish thought.

Fortunately, Wendy was not someone who likes to take advantage of other people's weaknesses and sincerely befriends Kaylee. Even Wendy and Nick would defend her if anyone tried to bully her or trick her.

It's just... this time, they really had to ask Kaylee for help, and they had no other way to make Kaylee comply with their request other than by tricking her cunningly.

At that time, Wendy made Kaylee's heart overwhelmed with the joyous occasion. Kaylee was very excited about attending the music of the year festival in Boston. When Kaylee was off guard, Wendy asked a series of questions, which made Kaylee answer nothing but 'yes' only.

"Are you happy today?" Wendy asked in a loud voice because of how crowded the festival music noise.

"Yes!" answered Kaylee in the same booming voice as her friend, jumping up and down to the rhythm of the loud music.

"Do you like my surprises?"

"Yes!"

"Are you a Black Moon fan?"

"Double Yes!!"

"Will you help me?"

"Yes!!"

"Can you disguise yourself as Nick and go to M University?"

"Yes!!" that's when Kaylee stopped jumping and looked at her friend in confusion. "Ha??"

"You already answered yes, so you can't take it back."

That was the beginning of why Kaylee yielded her best friend's request even though she actually didn't want to be someone who was not herself. Despite being clueless to become someone like Nick, Kaylee did not refuse it because she already thought of Nick as her brother and sincerely wanted to help the boy.

Wendy and Kaylee had been friends since they were kids. Kaylee even watched Nick grow up. Nick's first step, the first word that Nick spoke, as well as the one helping Mrs. Larson, replaced the child's diaper was Kaylee.

Because of that, Kaylee also really loved Nick like her own sibling. Only with Nick, Kaylee did not feel awkward. But when dealing with other men, Kaylee would become silent and want to get away from the man immediately. Including her 'fiancé.'

When Declan visited her house last month, Kaylee didn't say much and only answered when anyone asked her. First, she didn't want to get too close to him. Second, she didn't wish Declan to realize that the 'Nicholas' who was playing the piano at that time was her.

Declan did not seem interested in getting closer to her, either. Thus, Kaylee could relax in her place. It looked like this arranged marriage will be canceled, considering that neither party was interested in marriage.

Kaylee thought that her mother had given up on her and did not force her to marry Declan. Since then, that man has stopped coming to her house. And the discussion regarding their matchmaking was no longer discussed either.

Little did she know, Mrs. Black and her mother were already preparing for their engagement ceremony. Well, Declan didn't know about this either, so Kaylee wouldn't be left dumbstruck alone.

[Kaylee: What is that supposed to mean?]

"Hey, what are you thinking?" called Wendy broke her reverie.

"Nothing," was the short reply. "Looks like I'll have to cut half on my work after once the school year starts." Kaylee could imagine her busy life as a first-semester freshman, and her job would certainly be neglected.

"Ah, right. Take it easy. I'll help you."

"Thanks. You're really my heroine."

Wendy laughed at her, "You know you don't need to be grateful. Nico is the one who should be thankful. That self-conscious kid just walks away when he sees the results of the announcement. He hasn't said thank you at all."

Kaylee realized that Nick was no longer there with them and went somewhere when she was lost in thoughts.

This time it was Kaylee who laughed. "It's okay. It's his habit, right?"

The two of them giggled together. Nicholas was known to be a very spoiled kid, but at the same time, he could act polite and self-aware when dealing with other people.

The child was also well-known for his fiery emotions when anything upsets him. But only for his two 'older' sisters, Nico acted like a spoiled kid and never hesitated to ask for anything.

***

The day passed quickly, and the day when Kaylee entered the campus to replace Nick arrived before she knew it.

Kaylee had to get up at four in the morning to perform her undercover routine. She put on fake eyebrows to make her eyebrows look thick. The faux leather patches on the sides of her face, and she rolled her long black hair into a bun before being covered with a short boyish brunette wig.

She also had to wrap a white cloth around her chest so that her medium-sized bosoms would not stick out. Kaylee wore a white T-shirt and was then double it with a sleeved plaid shirt. She also wore torn jeans, and she completed her transformation into a Nicholas Larson.

Now Kaylee was standing in front of the campus gate with a doubtful look. Will she be okay? Will this disguise go smoothly?

"Hey, Nick. We meet again!"

Once again, a boy hugged her shoulders roughly… almost strangled her neck!? Do all men greet their friends like this? And she has to learn to get used to it?

"You're right. We finally made it in here. Can you imagine it?" Kaylee imitated Nick's excited and energetic speaking style while trying to untie her 'friend's' strangle.

"I know exactly what you mean. It's all like a dream. Imagine, out of the five hundred who signed up, only twenty people were admitted. And we are those twenty people. Look, my body is very excited today." the boy was bouncing with joy to show his enthusiasm.

Kaylee laughed at the funny behavior of the boy, who was very much like Nick. Perhaps having just graduated from high school, Kaylee could see the childish attitude she encountered in almost every new 'friend' she had.

Kaylee tried to think of all the boys who would become her friends during her 'college' period as Nick.

It felt much more comfortable to imagine those boys as Nick, and she could be friends with all of them.

She really hoped so.
