What was the best way to settle into a new surrounding than to meet new faces and get familiar with the area?
Except, I did not want to meet new people nor get familiar with anything.
I attracted a lot of stares as I walked through the streets. I was sure Puff was not visible to anyone so I could not possible imagine what they were looking at. I was clean, and dressed like them, there was nothing that was supposed to make me stand out. So why were they staring?
Unlike the first day when not one person looked my way, this was certainly different.
"Pretty hair." A child said as he skipped past me, flashing a genuine smile on his face with his gap tooth evident.
My hair?
Was that what they were staring at? My hair had not gained any sort of attention before, it had never been tagged as unordinary or out of this world so I had never felt special because of it.
