PAST SCENE, SET LATE AUGUST 2005
“It’s just hair. It’ll grow back, baby…”
Maddy’s words had been comforting to Flynn at the time. He’d nodded and laughed it off with a weak joke about it being no different to getting a Brazilian and he didn’t even have to suffer pain of waxing. It’s easier to laugh something off when it’s just a notion. What he didn’t realise at the time was how accurate his jesting had been…
Flynn made a grab for the shower taps and shut it off abruptly. His slicked wet body was still soapy, rinsing being the last thing on his mind at the moment. He’d been expecting the hair on his head to start to fall out at any time; he’d had dreams of waking up completely bald or walking down the street and all his hair blowing out with a mere breeze of wind. It wasn’t like that, of course. And nor was it the hair on his head that he started to lose first.
( He uncurled his hand, palm up and stared at the dark hair, stark against the light skin of his palm... )
