Chapter 1-Cut

DW's hair was getting long again. She was 13 and into style and fashion. Her room was littered with posters from famous models and random pieces of laundry. Her next day's outfit was lying on the edge of the bed, but DW was staring into the mirror studying her hair.

"DW, 10 more minutes!" her mom called. "Whatever," DW muttered. She didn't like obeying her mother anymore. She didn't like obeying anyone.

DW pulled out a pair of scissors and slipped into the bathroom. Kate banged on the door; DW didn't listen. Kate could hear the snipping sounds and called their Dad. He broke through the door and looked at DW. Most of her hair was cut off now, its pieces raining onto the floor. DW didn't look guilty but her dad looked mad, very mad.

"Dora Winifred-" he started, but Jane finished, "Read!"

The bus came to the Read house, but only Kate got onboard (Arthur was at college in Crown City). DW was sitting in the kitchen, running her fingers through her choppy short hair. She ignored her parents as they yelled. She smiled when her dad rushed off to work. Her mother caught her, snapping her fingers at DW.

"I've had enough of you," she muttered, snatching up her keys. "Grab your books You're going to school as-is."

DW grinned. She walked into Washington Middle School (named for George Washington) in her pajamas with half her hair gone. No one was in the hall, but when DW got to class, they stared. Hard.
