The key to freedom

"You cannot be that woman…You are a man now!" Jin angrily whispered.

An enigmatic smile encased his lips, not really bothered with Jin's guess. But Shui's mouth did twitch.

"You are a man now…What are you even talking about, Jin? Of course, he is a man. Do you have any doubt about his gender?" She coughed.

"Ah don't worry, dear. He is just confused," the man's eyes mischievously twinkled. "I might feel familiar to him though I would very much like to say that I am indeed a man. The woman you met previously might be somebody else~"

Jin recalled the elderly woman and now fixed his gaze at the man.

He means that they belong to that same weird cloudy space but are different entities?

"I must stress that I am very much a man," he smiled.

His countenance soured.

For some reason, I don't want to believe him. Whatever, I don't care!
