Back to Work

We head off the jet and onto the landing pad.

"Have you ever thought about changing your hair?" Steve asks me out of the blue.

"Um, yeah. I mean, we never had the money to do it back home. I've thought about it a few times." I reply.

"Well, I think you should. You took some time to yourself, and now your going back to your normal job. Why not add a little bit of new to your normal?" He asks.

"Sure, I'll look into it before I head back to work." I assure him.

"I better be the first person to see it when it's done." Steve points and gives me a fatherly look.

"Okay," I throw up my hands in defense, "you'll be the first to see it."

"Okay, good."

I chuckle and shake my head.

---------------------

I'm walking back down the hallway of my apartment building. The nostalgia subtly sets in. It's been a little while since I've been home. After the fight with Loki and figuring out my powers, it's been about 6 weeks since I've been home. The key slides in the lock, and I give the door a little shove. My eyes scan over the space.

"It's good to be back."

Little did I know, that this wasn't going to last very long...

Anyways, I make my way to my bedroom. First thing, I flop down on the bed like a starfish. My phone makes it's way to my hand. I dial a number for the nearest salon.

"Hello, this is The Platinum Salon, how can I help you?" A woman asks.

"Hi, I'd like to set up an appointment for my hair." I state.

"Okay, our next appointment opening is at 2 o'clock tomorrow. Does that work for you?"

"Yes, thank you."

"Anytime, what's the name?" She questions.

"Lilliana Maximoff"

"Alright, we'll see you then."

The line ends.

"Now I just have to figure out what I want to do with my hair." I mumble.

After a couple hours of searching the internet, I come across a picture. Immediately clicking in my brain, that that's what I want.

Now I just have to wait until tomorrow.

-------------------

I walk into the small salon, placing my sunglasses in my purse.

"Hi, I'm here for my hair appointment at 2 o'clock." I state.

"What's the name?" The woman asks.

"Lilliana Maximoff"

"Right this way." She stands up, waving her hand for me to follow.

"Sit here, Jane will be with you shortly." The woman announces.

I sit down and wait patiently for a few minutes.

"Alright what are we doing with your hair today?" Jane asks.

"Here" I hand her my phone and show her the inspiration.

"Let's get started."

-----------------------

I pull out my phone and dial Steve.
He answers the facetime by the third ring.

"Hey, are you okay?" He asks concerned.
