Near's Hair Problem
Near was thinking. So, characteristically, he was twirling his hair around his index finger. "I think we should get….." he eyes lit up as he said his favorite restaurant, "MCDONALDS!!!!"
One of the people that worked with him said, "But we've already had McDonalds three times this week! Can we go somewhere else like…..Pizza hut?"
Near looked like he was about to cry. "But….I want the toy!" then he screamed out with total and utter pain. "OWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!" He had gotten his finger stuck into his hair.
Instantly, everyone in the room reacted. They tried for about one hour to get his finger out of his curly white mane. (Don't ask….) But his mane would not let its captive go (again, don't ask…). Eventually, someone came in with a pair of scissors. But when Near saw them, he screamed "NOOO!!!!!! MY BEAUTIFUL HAIR!!!!!!! MELLO'S HAIR WILL BE BETTER THEN MINE!!! I CAN'T HAVE THAT!!"
The person with the scissors assured him, "You won't even notice it….. I promise…"
After another excruciating hour, they finally got Near to let them cut his finger out of his 'mane'.
----Later that same day ----
Near was on the phone with Raito. "Are you sure your not Kira?"
"Yes….for the last time I'm sure! It's not like you to be so forward with your questions. Is something bothering you?"
"Well, I did have an upsetting experience today..." He said while rubbing a bald spot that was once a part of his full head of hair.
