Something is weird about the kid

>>Corvina

I panicked as soon as I heard his words.

How come he knows that?!?! Nobody here knows that!!

"How do you know that?" I felt like I was being exposed and a sense of doom came over me.

The kid stared at me, "You really don't know?" He scoffed, it looked like he was making fun of me.

"How do you know!?" I slightly raised my voice which I knew immediately was wrong. The realization made me slap my hands on my mouth, "Sorry," I whispered and then glanced around. Luckily, no one had noticed.

He sipped more of his juice while he rolled his eyes, "Your roots are showing,"

!!!

I paused, then felt embarrassed.

"Oh!" I placed both my hands on my hair, "Oh, is that so?"

"Mmmhmm," He was unimpressed.

"Boss," Cory peeked at me from inside the kitchen, "Your hair is not naturally brown?"

"Well," I had been caught and if my roots really are showing, I can't lie about it, "Yes," Cory was surprised at my answer.
