Ruka couldn't stop staring at Tomie's cheeks. From her angle, you could only see a side of her face from the back, but it was mostly just her cheeks and she wanted to pinch them so bad. Most of the members are still teenagers and Tomie's cheeks just reminded Ruka how young Tomie still was.She couldn't resist it and crept up behind Tomie as her hand slowly approached Tomie's face. When Tomie notices, she slowly turns her face to Ruka. "What are you doing?" She asks.
The best answer Ruka could give her was through her actions. She lightly pinched Tomie's cheek and bounced her finger on her cheek. "You're so cute," Ruka gushed. "Your cheeks are like fluffy pancakes."
Tomie's lips turn into a downward smile, not sure how to feel about that comment. She wasn't insecure about her cheeks, but she didn't like them either. She stopped eating candy, baked goods, and other foods with added sugar to reduce her face fat, but it hasn't worked.
Sunday is a sacred day for Tomie, it is special and different from all other days of the week. Every Sunday afternoon, Tomie goes through a two hour long routine of washing her hair. She has a pink tub in the bathroom to wash her hair in. After filling up the tub with water, she uses her shampoo, hair mask, conditioner and leave in conditioner in that exact order. She sections her hair so she can thoroughly wash her hair.During each use, she massage her scalp and hair for almost ten minutes because she has so much hair. She leaves the hair mask in her hair for 30 minutes. After washing her hair, Tomie squeezes the excess water off before wrapping it in a towel designed for long hair like hers.
Around this time, there is always food waiting for her and her sister at the table. The whole family eats while watching variety shows.
After eating, Tomie goes to her room and closes her door to finish the last part of her routine. She prefers not to use a blow dryer, but occasionally she'll use it. She doesn't like using too much heat on her hair. She gently brushes her hair from the bottom to the top before adding all of her products.
She washes her hair every 2 days but Sundays is when she does a full treatment. The feeling of self care and spending time on herself is one of Tomie's favorite things in the world. Previously, Tomie had been confused as to why her mom would get her nails done or get a haircut and workout, but now she understood. Who was she doing it for? She was doing it all for herself. Taking care of yourself is one of the best feelings in the world.
