My self image

Chapter 11

As I was walking to the bus the guilt started nagging at me because what was I supposed to tell my parents, my hair is now red and that's gonna show obviously. "We did not think this through, how am I going to tell my parents about my hair?" We, I used the word "we" which is weird because Ana isn't a real person, she can't be. She is just a helping thought I guess. "Don't you worry, I got it all planned out, just always do what I say." Ana says.

When I arrived to my house I noticed that all the curtains were closed. "What did I tell you, no one's home because they're all at school and stuff." Ana says to me. I'm glad no one's home but I don't know what I'll tell dad when he comes back and sees my hair. I was sitting on my bed and I wanted to cry my eyes out. "What have I done? Why dying my hair? How am I going to hide this?" All those guilt thoughts, they're terrible. "You're not going to hide this, after everyone gets home you're gonna go into the bathroom and then you're pretending to dye your hair, so when you come out you have a new look, and how mad can dad possibly get?" Ana tells me. I personally think it's a nonsense plan but if Ana says so.....

'Lil! Get down, or we're having dinner without you!' Lisa yelled. I walked down the stairs nervously, but I was trying to seem as confident as I could. I walked into the dining room and sat down silently. 'Woah what happened to your hair?!' Sadie asks laughing. 'You look like the little mermaid.' Pellie says with her mouth stuffed with food. Dad doesn't say anything yet, he just looks at me with a shocked face. 'Di-.....did.....did....you do this, did you do this yourself?' Dad asks me, his mouth looks like a cartoon mouth, just one straight line. 'I...I can't believe this, this is só not what you're supposed to do. You were supposed to ask me and your mom, I'm so disappointed in you!!' He yells at me, his head has turned red and everyone else just sits awkwardly and look at me. 'I'm not going to let you get away with this, you're gonna go upstairs now and take your dinner with you.' He says to me strictly. He hands me the bowl with spaghetti, I take it and walk out there while looking shocked and embarrassed.
