you sat on the side of the sink while your dad tries to dye your hair

“Almost done hun! We just need to let it dry for a few minutes, is that okay with you?”

he smiles at you and grips your hand tightly

“I can’t wait to see what your new hair looks like! I’m gonna take so many photos and you’re gonna get many more hair ruffles too!”

your dad looks at the dye box and then back at you

“5 more minutes bud, then we can wash it off!”
