Chapter 1:

Leona's secret project

Leona let out a blissful squeal as the hair dryer blew on her head.

"And you're all done, ma'am," the stylist smiled.

"For once I'm leaving a hair salon with some hair. Usually, I get my head and eyebrows shaved and waxed for losing a bet, but this time, both remain," Leona grinned as she stared at her reflection in the mirror.

Though she wasn't bald and browless, the look was still a far cry from normal. Gone was her ahoge and long locks, with a short, boyish pixie in its place. Her hair and eyebrows were still dyed their trademark pink and yellow though.

"Milf power has risen," Leona grinned as she was uncapped.

"You still pass as a teenager even with that short cut," the stylist swooned.

"I have a good beauty regiment. Though I bet some kids will start calling me, "momma" if I pass by them looking like this."

"Hmm, your outfit doesn't scream "milf" though."

"Want me to throw on some milf jeans?"

"Would you look good in them?"

"Hmm, I'd probably have to ditch my signature jacket and red top to make the look rock... Any other way I could milfify my appearance some more?"

"A robe?"

Leona grinned and snapped her fingers. "White robe to pair with the sneakers. Plus, I can just throw it on top of everything. Love the way you think, Mysti."

After dawning a white robe, Leona strutted out of the salon with pride. Though as for why she even got such a haircut, that would remain a secret.

As she got home, Rina glanced up from her smartphone. "You cut your hair?"

"I look more milfy?"

"Uh, weren't you always one?"

"MILF! MILF!" a young boy and young girl shouted as they ran to greet Leona.

"Your little siblings get it. Besides, you were saying, "Milf, milf" too at their age," Leona snickered.

"I'm in middle school now."

"And already embracing gyaru culture. Love the nails n' hair."

"I'll- Wait, shaving my head wouldn't work as a good retort against you. Ugh, it's so hard to be rebellious."

"Just the way it is."

"So why exactly are you being so secretive about why you cut your hair?"

"Actually can't say, even privately."
