EYEBROWS! CRITICAL STATUS!

Enid talked me into letting her do my eyebrows.

I MADE A BIG MISTAKE!

"Kojiro," She said, "You've got those big bushy eyebrows. They could use some shape!"

"You'd look so much better!"

I did some figuring in my head.

THIS WAS ALSO A MISTAKE!

My rationalization of the situation went as such:

Enid is a girl.

The girl I like that comes into the bakery is a girl!

Enid thinks I'd look better with neat eyebrows.

The girl I like that comes into the bakery would think I'd look better with neat eyebrows!

"Well sign me up!" I told Enid. "Sign me up all day long!"

So we took some kitchen chairs into the living room where the light was better and she came at me with the tweezers.

YEEEOOOOWTCH!

Girls DO this to themselves!?

I began to struggle.

"Hold still!" she cried "HOLD STILL!"

It was just like that time I started freaking out at the dentist!

"STAY AWAY FROM ME WITH THOSE THINGS!"

I got my foot up and put it on her chest and I was trying to push her away, but she has an IRON GRIP! Like a superhero!

"It doesn't hurt that bad, Kojiro!" she was yelling. I wrenched my hand into her mouth and tried to push her head away. "LET GO OF ME!"

I was screaming and screaming and she just kept plucking! She was too strong for me!

Half an hour later when Chuck came home, Enid was sitting on my chest on the couch, still PLUCKING away. I'd given up. I was about to cry! Oh, no! OH NO! "See, it's not so bad."

"It is so bad," I told her.

"She does my eyebrows, Kojiro." Chuck said. That traitor! That fool! She's got him under her eyebrow spell! "It doesn't hurt so bad!"

"It does hurt so bad," I said and I refused to talk to him the rest of the night.

Later I looked at myself in the mirror in my room. I look like a Frankenstein.

I hope Ramona likes this...
