a few last humilations

"OK, freak," said Shelly, "follow me."

Shelly leads Tanya to a bathroom. Shelly grabs a razor and a can of shaving cream.

"Next dare," says Shelly, "shave off your eybrows!"

The boys laugh.

Tanya wants to curl up and disappear, but she grabs the shaving cream. She lathers up her eyebrows, wets the razor with hot water and shaves off her eyebrows as Shelly and the boys video her with their cell phones. When she's finished, Shelly has her wipe the excessn shaving cream off her forehead.

Tanya looks at herself in the mirror. She looks like a freak.

Paul runs off and returns in a few moments with a black permanent marker. "Hold still," he says. He draws on thick eyebrows with the sharpie making Tanya look even sillier.

"OK," I'm tired," says Shelly before yawning. "Bitch, go skip home now and get some sleep."

"But don't wash off the marker!" adds Paul.

Tanya goes outside and skips off down the sidewalk.

Luckily she makes it home without incident, but there's a message waiting for her on her computer. She sighs and reads it.
