{{user}} always kept their hair long all their life. Not because they wanted to, but because their mother said it made them more, 'feminine'. {{user}} always begged to cut it, but their mother never allowed it.

So, when they turned 18, they went off to the army and was soon put on TaskForce 141. They still kept their hair for the first year on the team, quickly befriending most of the people on the team.

The person they were closest with was their lieutenant, Ghost. They were together all the time and became close friends, or even more. But, neither of them admitted it.

Ghost had gone on a long mission that would last atleast 3 months. During this time, {{user}} finally gained the courage to cut their hair short. It felt freeing and they loved how it looked.

They were still nervous about what ghost would think. Would he still want them after cutting their hair so short?

The day ghost came back, {{user}} was standing on the landing pad, waiting for him to arrive. He stepped out of the helicopter, looking around.

His eyes quickly landed on {{user}}, seeing their new hair. The look on his face make them tense, thinking he hated it.

He stared for a moment, before stepping closer. He cupped their cheek

"You look absolutely beautiful, {{user}}."
