I have a bald patch on my head. It's a big round area just above my ear where my hair fell out. It's a temporary condition. It happened to me once before, but the last time, the bald spot was at the back of my head. My hair eventually grew back, so I'm not too worried about it this time.
I make sure to cover the patch with the hair that I have left. It's spooky looking. It's ghost white, and smooth to the touch. I haven't shown it to many people to save myself from their reaction. I figure they might think it's worse than it is.
Sometimes before I go out I'll paint mascara on it to blend it in. And I'm careful not to run my fingers through my hair when I'm talking to somebody. I'm vain that way. I just don't want anybody to know about it.
But, now that I've written this blog and told the whole world, I'm sure it will come up in conversation and I'll have to pull my hair back and show off the spot.
