Little Josie sat in front of the mirror with a towel that was spread around her neck. Her mother, Lady Katherine, stood behind her, combing her uneven hair cut by her brother a few minutes ago. 

"Really now. I told you to stay put and not to go outside," Katherine mildly scolded her daughter, where the little one now sat with both her hands on her lap while blinking her eyes. 

"But, mama, there was a rabbit outside," came the small voice of the girl. 

Katherine smiled at her daughter's innocent words. She brought the scissor before starting to trim Josie' hair even so that they didn't look jagged. The long hair had now turned shoulder length. "You should have asked your brother. I am sure he wouldn't mind bringing the rabbit to you."

"I didn't want to bother him," Josie looked down at her hands, playing with her fingers.
