The next morning, Amerie stretches as she slides out of an empty bed. She hadn't realized that Jay had left. Walking into the bathroom she does her best using her bandaged hands to use the bathroom, wipe, and flush. She knew she needed to wash her hands so she carefully removed the gauze and tossed it in the trash.

After washing her hands and softly drying them, she looked in the linen closet for a toothbrush, picking a cute green one, she noticed a tube of toothpaste on the counter. Wetting her brush, adding toothpaste, and wetting it again, she brings the toothbrush to her mouth and begins brushing her teeth.

Once her teeth were brushed and the only thing she could taste was the mintiness of Crest she headed back to the closet to grab a face towel. She washed her face getting the crust out of her eyes and wiping behind her ears. 

When she was finished washing her face, she looked in the cabinets for a good face moisturizer. Coming across a bottle of CeraVe lotion she placed some on her fingertips and gently rubbed it into her face.

After she was finished she grabbed the gauze and medical honey and headed downstairs to find someone to patch her hands up.

Walking down the stairs, she notices Ze'rea sitting on the couch rubbing her temples.

"Good morning, what's wrong?" Amerie asks and Ze looks up at her.

"My head is killing me right now and no amount of medicine is working."

"Did you sleep any?"

"Barely. It's just a lot going on that sleep seems impossible."

"Well, you need to relax. Maybe you need a day of relaxation."

"Did you forget we just got shot at yesterday?"

"That's all the reason why you need a day of relaxation. But first where's Jay or King?"

"They left. Why wassup?"

"I need my hands wrapped," Amerie says and Ze waves her over. Sitting down next to Ze'rea on the couch, Amerie places her palms up as she waits for Ze to patch her up.

Carefully applying the honey and rubbing it in, Ze then wraps the gauze around Amerie's hand the repeats the same steps for the other hand.

"So about this relaxation day..." Ze says.

"Are you down for it? Because I could definitely use a massage right about now." Amerie says trying to crack her back.

Ze thinks for a while before standing up.

"I'm down, let's go."

-

Heading to Sole Spa in Buckhead, which was about a thirty-minute drive from where they were in Druid Hills. The girls enjoy a nice and quiet drive. With Ze's head seconds away from busting off her shoulders and Amerie's usual tiredness they didn't feel like hearing much noise.

Arriving at the spa, the two girls walk in and were instantly greeted by the lady at the front desk.

"Hello, welcome to Sole Spa, do you have an appointment today?"

"Actually, we were hoping to do a walk-in." Amerie answers.

"Okay, sign in here and we'll call you when we're ready for you. We're just a little behind so maybe about ten to fifteen minutes."
