“But I don’t think it’s something one can fix just by asking…?”
“That’s true, but don’t you wonder why Karendoll fell in love with that piece of junk? I am curious.”
Gunununu! You think it’s somebody else’s problem! You think it’s funny.
I got tempted to throw fine-grained sand at the base of that spinning drill and clog it at the roots, but I resisted the temptation.
In the case of long hair, even if there are no drills, it would be hard to remove any sand if it got poured on your head. And when it comes to the junction between the two drills, it’ll be even harder.
Besides, I can’t bear to pay for the repairs in the first place, even if she charged me for them.
“I don’t know why, but I somehow feel like you’re making fun of my noble hairstyle, but it’s just my imagination, right?”
“Y-you must be imagining things! Such a hairstyle is so—”
“So?”
“I mean, I was just admiring your beauty with a bit of envy, thinking that only Emily would look good with such a noble and heavy twin drill hairstyle!”
“Yes, of course! But praise won’t get you anywhere, will it?”
If she knew what I was thinking in my mind, I would have had a hole gouged out of me by the drill (haircut) that was seemingly spinning around happily right now.
I would like to think that it is not only her but also her hair that seems to show her emotions, just like the phrase, “the drills are as good as the mouth.”
“Well then, as they say, the first thought that comes to mind is a good one, so let’s go ask Karendoll right away! She’s a martial arts moron, so I’m sure she’ll be in the indoor training hall after school today.”
Emily, perhaps feeling better after I complimented her on her drill haircut, wasted no time taking action and flying away without even waiting for my response.
Her speed was as if there were propellers at the ends of her drills increasing her propulsive force.
[EDN: Like a plane lol.]
If it wasn’t for me, you’d be too quick and miss the propeller at the end of the drills.
“This is no time to relax! If I don’t stop Emily’s outburst soon, no matter what I say to Karendoll, it may be irreversible! Please don’t add more trouble!”
Why do people around me keep me away from this thing called peace?
Is it my imagination, or do I feel like I’m starting to get caught up in the current around me like a dead leaf in a raging river when all I want to do right now is spend my time quietly reading a book? I hope it’s all just in my mind.
