When I was in kindergarten, about 5 or 6 years old, I always hung around my brother, Dipta. As a child, I always followed what Dipta did. I always did what he asked, even without asking him the reason for it. From a young age, we were always curious about razors. We always wondered why a man’s beard could disappear instantly just by using a razor and we were always amazed each time we watched my uncle shave his beard. One day, when we were left alone at home, we tried to entertain ourselves with so many different activities watching cartoons on television, pillow fighting, etc. Then, we found a razor near the lavatory! We touched and held it with overwhelming curiosity. Dipta said, “Ive always wondered what this thing was. Maybe we should try it to put an end to our curiosity.” I replied, But we don’t have a beard or moustache to shave!” I continued, “Is it sharp, like a knife? How come uncle’s beard can be shaved with this? Why does he always shave his beard with this and not with a knife or scissors?”. Dipta tried it on the hair on his arms. “Look! My hair is gone. It works. It’s really sharp! You should try too!” I replied, “No way!”
Then a crazy idea spilled out of him, “I think we should try it on your eyebrow!” Using his authority as the eldest sibling, he tried to convince me. “Come on, Ill only shave a bit, not much!” he said. And I easily agreed. He started shaving my right eyebrow little by litte, and I looked in the mirror and was utterly surprised. He shaved almost half of my right eyebrow! He claimed it was out of his control but out of fear, he said, “Okay, I’ll try to fix this. I don’t want mom will be angry to me. Maybe I can cut a bit of the tip of your hair and use it to cover your lost eyebrow.” Then he cut bits of the tip of my hair, covered my lost eyebrow and patched it with transparent cellulose tape. He thought it would fix the problem so he wont be scolded by my mother.
Hours later, Mom came home and we were worried if she’ll find out what happened to my eyebrow. Everything was running smoothly and she had yet to realise. But no lie can be covered up and the truth will always be revealed. My Mom finally realised and asked us what happened. “What happened with your eyebrow? It looks odd. Your eyebrow looks half real – half fake”, she said. We explained the incident and fortunately, she didn’t get angry. Hernindyasti Dwitya Hapsari, Indonesia
