Aiden went to the hairdresser, he had to, didn't do that for almost a year now. The local hairdresser was her ex-girlfriend, Mary's mom shop.
"I hope she never told her about me."
Aiden sighed, worried about his reputation in the shop he was standing in front of. He walked in and immediately heard warm voice of probably the nicest person in Candle Hill.
- sit down hun, i'll just grab a few things and we'll make your hair go shiny.- He heard from the backroom, sat down and waited until Mrs. Jenn came up to him
-what's your name sweetheart? Hmm... Haven't i see you somewhere?
- I don't think so ma'am. My name is Aiden.
-Aiden, hmm? My daughter had a boyfriend named Aiden, but i seen him only once.
"Oh crap, of course! She saw me when i visited Mary while she had flu! That one damn time!" He thought, scared, tried to quickly change the way this conversation was going.
-I don't think i know your daughter ma'am. What is her name?- He bluffed, as he saw it the best way out of it.
-Mary. Are you sure you're not him?
-No, no, I don't know her.
-Hmm. Let it be your way then.- And with this words the conversation ended.

When Mrs. Jenn stepped away for a second, Aiden quickly said under his nose: "Neb Marhk Xu Vis Xheroz"
- Did you say something, sweetheart?
-Uhh, no ma'am i didn't.
-Huh. Must have misheard something.

When Mrs. Jenn ended, Aiden in hurry paid her, said goodbye and got out of the store."Yeah, just another life saved, I'm almost a hero." He stopped by the trashcan, pulled out his phone and picked the number.
-Aiden, i told you-
-Mary, we need to talk, let's meet in that alley behind your mom's hairdresser shop.
-Aiden, listen to me- He hanged up, as he didn't want and didn't have to listen to painful truth.
