Strands of brown hair fell to the ground.
SLASH!!! SLASH!!! SLASH!!
Xendros cut his long hair with the knife hastily, just slashing wildly. He did not care if this would cause his appearance to be disheveled. All he wants is to lose some weight in his head...
Cutting them off like he was cutting off excess pain.
Once it was over, Xendros was almost unrecognizable. His hair was unruly and cut until his nape, the sides not passing from the ears. This gave some lightness to him and his face cannot be covered by his long hair anymore. The whole world can see it now.
"I have decided, Maelle. I will forever hold on to this pain. I will forever bleed."
This caused Maelle's inexpressive face to falter, as his eyes widened bit by bit. This was not the change he expected, yet he was trained to expect the unexpected anyway for that is the way of life.
He can only come to accept it.
