As I walked up to the door my head started spinning. What if this was all a dream? What if Mike don't really like me, just uses me? I know it's not true. I care about Mike and he obviously cares about me too. It's a good feeling knowing that I have him. It's like I have a shoulder to cry on if something goes wrong. It's a really comforting feeling. As Mike opens the door I see his face light up. It makes me really happy. Knowing he's happy is the most important thing for me.
His hair looks amazing and I get a little self conscious knowing that my hair really needs a trim.
"Hey Mike." I say walking up and hugging him.
"Hey." Mike say hugging me back. We stand for almost ten seconds until we hear Holly scream in the background. We turn around fast to see that Holly had cut if her Barbie's hair. I start to laugh while Mike goes over to her to comfort her. She starts to cry and I walk to her and sit down beside her.

"Holly, did the Barbie need a haircut?" I ask slowly.
Holly sees up to me and stops crying.
"Yes."
"Do you think she looks beautiful?"
"Yes."
"So why are you crying."
"Because her long hair isn't there anymore."
"But maybe that's a good thing. You know change isn't always bad." I say hoping she will get more happy.
"But Barbie always have long hair." Holly says looking down at the shorthaired Barbie she holds in her hand.
"But you know short haired Barbie is just as beautiful." Mike say. I look over at him and smile. I love how he is so protective over Holly.
"Do you really think so?" Holly says looking at both of us with big eyes."
"Yes." Me and Mike say at the same time. We look over at each other and smile.
"Ok. Then I also want short hair like Barbie." Holly say loud and happy.
"I think you should ask mommy first." Mike say almost laughing. I laugh too as we see Holly run upstairs.
