Fuck I miss her already

"Stop doing that" Kuba said beside me in the car.

We just left the house and are on our way to the "secret" appointment.

George's driving us and won't tell us where we are going because he doesn't want to be on bad terms with Arden.

You know a person more than half your life and they already forget where their loyalty lies.

"Doing what?" I asked kuba confused

"Having that look on your face. We haven't seen her for 2 minutes and you already look like a lost puppy" Kuba said smirking at me.

"qualunque cosa fratello, don't act like you don't miss her too. I heard you tell Noah to send you pictures of her every 30 minutes to make sure she looks the same way you left her" (whatever brother) I said watching as Kuba's cheeks heated up from being caught red handed.

"And I'll do it again, if it makes sure she's safe at all times" Kuba said defending himself

"I don't want her out without us, especially with everything going on back in Italy" kuba said curling his hands into a fist.

"She'll be fine, Noah's one of our most trusted friends. He's family" I said to Kuba trying to calm my friend down.

"I know I know, ma ci sarà sempre un cosa succede se nella mafia" (but there will always be a 'what if' in the mafia) he said looking at me making me wonder if we made the right decision.

At 2:57 George dropped us off at a barbershop called 'dapper cutz'

Getting out the car I looked to Kuba who was on the phone with someone.

When he was done he walked up to me and said,

"That was Arden, she said to go inside and ask for a guy named K9"

Walking inside i was shocked to see how full it was, there was children, men, women, teens. The room had people on couches, in barber chairs, and had a salon right next to it full of ladies.

Maybe I should've told Arden how much I hate a crowd.

Walking up to the desk there was a lady typing away at a computer, when she saw us she stopped what she was doing and said,

"Hello I'm Arrisa are you an appointment or walk in?"

"We are an appointment, we are looking for K9" Kuba said while I stood back watching

I could sense the room quiet down and everyone's eyes watching us.

I even heard voices say "they lost or sum?" "What they rich asses doing up in here." "They needa take that fancy ass car to Manhattan before that shit get robbed out here" making a few people chuckle

I than heard a person say "Are yall with Arden?" making me and Kuba turn our head.

"Yes, that would be us" kuba said observing the man that somehow knew kitten.

"Ight, I'll take y'all to the back Arden called me 10 minutes ago saying y'all probably don't like a crowd"

That's my girl

Before we started heading to the back the man K9 gave Arrisa a kiss and told us to follow him. I could see Kuba relax once he watched that interaction happened.

At the back of the shop there was door that lead us to another arrangement of barber chairs and barbers however this room only had 2 clients, leaving the room with only 5 people, 8 including us.
