“I lied to you. The man out there is my father, but…” Winnie pretended to sob and looked out at Alpha. He was still sitting there, oblivious, so she took off her hat and revealed her long, seaweed-like hair.
The counter lady was moved by Winnie’s tears. She held Winnie’s little hand and comforted her, “Don’t cry, little darling. If you feel wronged, just tell me.”
“I have a younger brother, but he passed away a year ago because he was sick. My father suffered a huge blow and suffered from a mental illness. From then on, my father suddenly treated me as my younger brother. When his illness acted up, he thought that my younger brother was still alive…”
Winnie wiped her tears again and poured all her true feelings into making up the story. “In order not to make Dad sad, I’ve been pretending to be my younger brother when his illness acts up, but I forgot to bring a wig when I went out today. My father’s illness suddenly acted up just now. If he realized that my younger brother had passed away due to his illness, he would be in so much pain… That’s why I needed a wig.” There was actually such a touching story behind a wig! The counter lady widened her mouth in shock. After experiencing Winnie’s helplessness and heartache, she hugged Winnie sympathetically and sighed from the bottom of her heart. “Baby, your father will definitely be proud to have such a sensible and kind daughter like you!”
She wiped the tears from the corner of her eyes and said firmly, “Take this wig away. I hope it can help you and your father!”
Winnie was almost moved to tears when she finally got the wig.
Under Winnie’s repeated insistence, the counter lady finally accepted the watch used to exchange for the wig, which was also Winnie’s repayment to her. After putting on the wig in the fitting room, Winnie looked at herself in the mirror, who looked exactly like Nicole and Noelle, and smiled in satisfaction.
This time, her father would not be able to recognize that she was actually Noelle’s imposter!
Because his son had dawdled in the shop for a long time, Alpha was curious and decided to walk in and take a look.
Alpha’s face darkened when he saw the little boy with short blond hair gesturing in front of the mirror with a dress. “Noelle, you’re a boy,”
Why would a boy wear a dress!
Alpha suddenly remembered the day before when Noelle had thrown a tantrum about wanting his Mommy because he hadn’t let him buy the dress. In addition to the psychiatrist’s advice to him, Alpha finally shut up about the matter.
After all, the psychiatrist had already persuaded him that it was human nature to be vain. Although Noelle liked to dress up as a woman, as a parent, he had to be tolerant!
Establishing a strong sense of gender would instead cause harm to the child’s psychological health. At the thought of this, Alpha forced himself to change his words. “As a boy… you look good in this dress.”
Winnie’s eyes immediately lit up. She had just put on a wig and saw this dress when she was passing by, so she wanted to try it out. She didn’t expect her father to think that it looked good either. She held the dress and gestured at it. The more Winnie looked at it, the better it looked. She immediately spun around happily and asked expectantly, “Really?”
Seeing his son’s shy and light movements, Alpha nodded with difficulty. “Yes.”
Once she was praised, Winnie was in the mood to choose a dress. She took another dress from the rack and admired it in front of the mirror.
Taking a deep breath, Alpha repeated the advice the psychiatrist had given him yesterday in his mind. With mixed feelings, he said, “Noelle, since you like dresses, Daddy will buy you a few..”
