Chapter 46 Interference

• I let out a deep sigh as I looked down at the sink. My fingers were quivering inadequately while holding the blade. I was trying to retain them but failed. I gulp the jam in my throat, trying to focus my mind. Remember, Natasha. You're doing this for him, for the sake of your freedom. I closed my eyes and then raised my hands, leveling them on my hair. When I felt the blade's tip cut through my hair, the tension I was feeling released.
• My shoulders relaxed, and at the same time, my mind went blank. As if all of this were just natural to happen. I stare at myself in the mirror, comprehending what's happening. You got this, Natasha, just a bit more cut, then you're okay.
• It took me almost half an hour before getting satisfied with what I looked like. Since I was locked inside the bathroom, the air was circulating inside it. The sweat formed on my forehead and then strolled down to my neck. I smiled, regrettable for what I had done. This is the first time I have done this in my life. Ever since I was a child, I have cared for my hair. Now that I cut it shorter than I couldn't imagine I would look like this, it feels eccentric.
