"No," I said for the fifth time and staying put on my seat, frowning.
"Please? You said that I could give you the worse dare and you would accept it," Kevin tried again.
"I didn't say I would accept it and Don't put words in my mouth," I stated, crossing my arms.
He gave me his sad puppy look and sighed dramatically.
"I told you about what happened about her and me and it was hard to do so, you know? Furthermore, you were the second person to know," He said, sadness filled his eyes and this time he wasn't joking around.
Shit. I made him look like that after he had just recovered minutes ago. I sighed and said,
"Fine I'll do it,"
His eyes lit up and he smiled brightly. I smiled back and got up from my seat and walk out of the café and towards the Barber shop. We walk in silence and only the sound of cars could be heard.
"I can't believe you want me to colour my hair blonde," I exclaimed, breaking the silence.
"I feel like it suits you, like your brown eyes totally matches with blond wavy hair," He replied casually.
"You want me to look like you now?" I questioned.
He thought for awhile before he nodded, grinning. After about fifteen minutes or so, we finally reach to the place. We both look at each other before nodding and going inside. The bell placed just on top of the door chimes when we walked in and we were welcomed by a girl like our age. I saw her nametag and it read 'Kayla'. She smiled at both of us before asking what I wanted her to do for my hair.
I look at my hair that was tied into a ponytail. It was so long that it had reached just above my butt.
"Can you colour my hair blonde and cut it in a medium length?" I asked, unsure of what to say. Because usually, when I get a haircut, my mom will do all the talking.
"Will do," She said nicely before glancing at Kevin.
Both of them shared a ten second glance before Kevin broke it with an awkward cough.
"I'll excuse myself outside for awhile," he muttered, before walking out.
I didn't failed to notice Kayla's cheeks had turned red. I raised an eyebrow at her and she smiled sheepishly at me.
"I'm sorry, your boyfriend has the ability to make me speechless," She squeak out.
"He's not my boyfriend and yeah he does," I said, laughing.
She guided me to a seat and ask me to open my hair out of my ponytail. I did as told and she went around to take scissors and colouring stuff. She wrap a big black leather thing and wrap it around my neck, covering my whole body so that it won't make a mess. She then began cutting my hair bit by bit. After she was done snipping, and cutting my hair until it falls just above my elbow. She then put some kind of aluminium foils on my hair and asked me to wait.
I didn't know what she did next because I fell asleep. I was awoke a few times because she wanted me to go to another chair to washed my hair and then we went back to the seat. I then flutter my eyes closed again and fell into deep sleep.
"Miss? I'm are done here," A polite voice said. I then recognize it was Kayla.
I opened my eyes and look in the mirror in front of me. I was surprised to see myself with blonde hair. Kevin was right. My wavy hair totally suits with blonde and it actually made my face a whole lot brighter.
"What's taking so long I -" Kevin started but stopped when he saw me.
He quickly rushes to me and touch my now blonde hair. He smirk and look at me in the mirror
