Snakes In My Hair? It's More Likely Than You Think.

She actually follows its advice.

She does.

"Not really."

"How? My whole family is in danger. My sister's… gone. And me, I'm-I'm stuck here. I'm just sitting here waiting to be killed. How can I believe you? And to think that for a second I thought I could save her, when I won't even be able to save myself."

"Is that supposed to sound reassuring?"

She starts trembling once again. Hearing all of that was not as reassuring as the snake thought it would have sounded.

Juno is just an ordinary girl.

She's the one who's the most scared.

She's the one with everything at stake.

"And when will that be?"

"Eve…"

Juno isn't sure how to feel about the whole situation with Eve. Trying to process that someone has been watching 'over' her is not easy. Then again, so is trying to process the fact that there's snakes growing out of her head!

Eve did give her this hair tie. 

But is a magical hair tie enough to trust someone?

Doubts in her heart and unrest in the mind. It's all irrelevant because Juno is desperate.

For now she will hope that Eve does help.

"Since we're ugh, stuck together, what should I call you?"

"Yes?"

She thinks for a moment before coming up with, "Noodles."

"It sounded like you were trying to say noodles."

"Also, for some reason I'm craving them."

"I am and it's only temporary, right?"

She lies back down and sighs deeply.

"What can I do now?"

Getting better huh? Juno doesn't want to go back to sleep nor does she want to eat more of this crappy hospital food.

"Can I ask why you showed me those broken memories? Or was it unintentional?"

"It did feel like there were parts missing."

//Was that why it felt like I was there but in the wrong body?//

"Does this mean th-that this thing is our enemy?"
