ONE YEAR LATER:

I twist my messy, ponytailed, blonde hair nervously. Today is 19 September: Color Day. Not just any Color Day. It is is my thirteenth Color Day- when I have to choose.

"980632269015? It's your turn to choose."

I cringe: my turn. I'm nervous. They say it's natural to worry. That everyone does. I'm not too sure that it's typically to this extent. My nails are chewed short and blood leaks out from underneath. I enter the white yet gloomy room.

A lady in a white coat asks, "Whats your favorite color? Choose wisely."

"Um...." This is the biggest decision l  will ever make. "Violet... the darker kind though"

"Are you certain? This affects the rest of your life?

I am completely aware of this.

"Uhhh.... I think so...."

"Say it firmly," the woman whispers in my ear.

Oh yeah.... The cameras... I almost forgot! I put on a fake smile,

"Definitely!"

"980632269015: violet!"

I "smile" again and exit the room.
