Guess what! I resurrected a kid and a mom! Guess who it is...
Its that kid from Chapter 3!
#14
I sighed as the hot water pounded against my back, washing away all the dirt and grime from today. Without really looking at the bottle or the shampoo, I ran my fingers through my wet, pink hair and massaged the shampoo in. I stayed in for a good 20 minutes, rinsing my hair and washing the rest of my body, before I regretfully turned off the water and wrapped a towel around myself, shivering from the cold air. I grabbed my brush from the counter and met my eyes in the mirror to brush my hair.
Brush. Brush. Brush.
…Brush…
Brush?
My hand paused in it's brushing, the hold slackening (as did the muscles holding my jaw up) and I simply took in the sight of my now neon green hair.
I screamed.
Duh.
The mirror broke (oh gee- more bad luck for Jinxie! Just like that horrid nickname) and I clamped my hands over my eyes, peeking through my fingers like you would in a horror movie.
Three… two… one…
A small child was grasping onto the hand of his mother as they walked through the pleasant neighborhood on their way back home. it was calm, and quiet, and Mary thought she had a good chance of putting Tommy to bed straight away…
Until the house across the street from them exploded.
Tommy cheered, jumping up and down and waking up his baby brother, "Fireworks! Yay!"
There was a shrill scream of, "Wally West, you are soo dead!" along with some other words that had Mary shooing her kids down the now crowded street with an over-the-shoulder glare at the exploding house with bright, pink fireworks that Tommy loved so much.
I have nothing to say.
Except I've been reading my prior chapters, and I'm just hating myself as i see how the chapters just get worse... and worse... and worse. *sigh* Well, sorry about that.
Review to prove your Loyalty!
