Chapter Seventeen: Hair cut
The talk with my parents had gone well, they seemed scared but agreed to everything I had told them. Now, I'm walking towards Kells place. Hmmm, I should probably cut my hair when I get there, it's long and I know that it will bother me. I don't know what I should cut it like though. I'll just cut it in a pixie cut. Well I'm at the village right now, so I might as well ask someone if they can cut it for me. I'm an idiot. I forgot that my mother cut men's hair. I headed back from the direction I had come from.
"Ms. Smith?" Okay, I know it's weird to call someone who is your parent this way, but I could just never bring myself to actually call her my mother. And everytime that I thought I could, I felt like I betrayed my actual mother. That woman suffered so much.
"Red? Your back?"
"Uh, yeah. Ya see, well, can you cut my hair? Like...a pixie cut or something? I don't want my hair to get tangled up and all so yeah…"
"O-of course!" She said cheerfully "Just sit here and I'll go get the scissors"
I sat down in a chair that she had pointed at, and she came in a few seconds after and started cutting my hair. When she was done I thanked her and left.
"Alright now I really have to get to Kells place."
I went inside his house and he was in the kitchen serving himself something to drink. When he saw me he took all attention away from his cup
"IDIOT YOUR SPILLING THE JUICE!"
He looked down and jumped backwards at the mess that he made and then placed the jug on the counter.
"I-Why did your hair?"
"It's easier to control this way"
"I see"
I was heading to my room when I heard someone talking directly towards me
"Woah, Red, Is that you?"
"Who else do you think it is idiot?"
I headed towards my room and looked in the mirror. I'm not gonna lie, I looked pretty cool. I should have cut my hair a long time ago. I'm hungry, I want food. Didn't I already eat though? Screw it, I'm eating again. I headed to the kitchen and ate some chips and chocolate. I have to train now, then shower, and after that get some sleep.
