The next day, I decided to go into town in one of the dresses Adelle gave to me. It was a nice change of pace compared to being in boy's clothes.
I'm just glad Adelle managed to help me with how I should look as a boy. I had to tie my hair up into a low ponytail using a black ribbon. I hope I can continue to pull off looking like a boy for as long as I can.
After buying two apples from one of the stands, I was passing by the plaza where Maxi helped me practice learning card tricks. I saw Maxi sitting alone in the center of the plaza.
"Hm?" I stopped. Tilting my head in confusion. 'What is he holding?'
I placed the apples back into my bag, and slowly made my way over to Maxi. Once I was close enough to see Maxi, I saw something shiny.
I thought it was a mirror.
It wasn't.
My eyes widened in shock.
It was a saw.
It was a saw.
It was a sAW.
It was a SAW.
It was A SAW.
It WAS A SAW.
IT'S A SAW?!?!
