Disappearance
by Carlson
She was a little disappointed. He used to come around pretty often, but he hadn't been by in a while. She sighed, resting her chin on her hand. She had been growing more beautiful everyday, and he wasn't around to see it! Still, though, she'd heard from some of her coworkers at the Bazaar that the headmaster's daughter had been found... she'd also heard that he was the one that found her. So it seemed that he wasn't coming back any time soon...
She tried to busy herself at her job, but nothing really happened there. A few people would come in to stow their valuables, but nobody really interesting... if anyone at all. Still, though, a young knight-in-training came in to check something (It was a wooden shield. He was sporting a new iron one at the time... she would never forget how manly he looked with it strapped on his back...), and immediately his bright red pompadour caught her eye.
"I like your hair," she stuttered as she took the old shield from his hands. He looked at her a little strangely for a moment, probably wondering whether or not she was being sarcastic. Finally though, he smiled, scratching the back of his head.
"Thanks."
"I think it's great that there's someone else in Skyloft that really appreciates a good hairstyle," she added, giggling and blushing like mad. She was so nervous; she'd never done anything like this before.
"Don't I know it! Yours is pretty cool, too. Maybe we can talk about styling techniques sometime," he said coolly before walking away.
She sighed again, meekly waving. Maybe that other guy's disappearance wasn't so bad after all...
