She is a Woman
"That was rather careless of you."
She looked back at the man with long golden hair. It was odd of him to comment on her way of life. "What is?" She took a book from its shelf and handed it to him.
Konzen took the book. Goku had been asking him to visit Tenpou so that they could get books. The little idiot wanted another one of those books about the flying meat bun. While they were here, Konzen asked Tenpou for a book. He would rather read than stare at Goku read.
"How did Kenren find out about your true gender?"
He remembered that Tenpou crossdressed so that she could serve in Heaven's army. She wanted to contribute to something and it seemed that the army would be the only challenge. Tenpou was an extraordinary woman. It seemed as if she was the only woman could understand the rules and regulations of Heaven's wars. It was even more remarkable that her knowledge was something that they could not find in any other man. She was granted permission to join the army only if she were a man.
"Oh," she reached over her head and gave him another. "About that." She opened it and flipped a few pages. Her eyes glanced over it making sure Konzen would like it. "Well, I was taking a bath. I didn't realize that Kenren walked in."
Konzen squinted at the woman putting the book back in its place. "You should really lock your doors. You're lucky that it's Kenren."
"Anyway," she turned to him and continued the story. "I was taking a bath and apparently he was calling for me. Of course, I was fast asleep in the bathtub and that asshole kicked through the door. He pulled me up to make sure I was still alive and then he got a look at my chest."
The man beside her wondered how she could keep a smile throughout the story. He could tell that Tenpou was agitated. Her eyebrow twitched a few times while she told the story. Though, the question that lingered in his mind was whether or not Kenren would keep it a secret.
