What might appear to be a blessing can indeed be a curse.

Take my hair for example.

Everyone wants to touch it. EVERYONE. Co-workers, enemies, the woman (and man) in the street. It makes me stand out in a crowd and in my line of work it’ll end up being the death of me. Literally.

The only person who is allowed to touch only indulges himself when we’re somewhere alone. My partner runs his hands through my hair as we make love, holding me close and whispering Italian endearments into my ear.

Maybe my hair is a blessing after all.

That's just lovely. I really like how it begins and ends with the 'blessing'.

Good job of getting a full, lovely story into 100 words. I enjoyed this. I held off reading it until I did mine so it wouldn't influence me, but as it turned out we went in very different directions.

I'm new to the community and to this drabble thing too, and I really like what you did with this. It's amazing what you could do with 100 words! Maybe I'll get there someday too! =)
