Today was a big day—Mir's new tattoo shop was open for business. The grand opening was yesterday, and today was officially opened for business.
I walked into the shop, saying hi to the employees. The buzz of the tattoo gun and 9o's R&B music softly filled the air. Mir was setting up his station, looking every bit the artist he was. The walls were covered with his and different people's artwork, and the place had this vibe that was so him.
"Yo, first customer is here," I smiled.
He looked up, a smirk on his face. "Whatchu getting?" he asked, prepping his tools.
"Mir's pussy," I said, pointing above my vagina with a straight face.
"For real?" His eyes lit up, and I busted out laughing
"Nah, I'm just bullshitting." I shook my head laughing.
"I wanna get Maliah in some nice ass lettering," I said, showing him the side of my arm where I wanted the name. "And I want to fill up this extra space with lily of the valley flowers 'cause that's May's birthday flower and she would have been born around time," I explained.
He smiled nodding as I watched as he sketched out the design, his brow furrowed in concentration. "Nahhh, I'm eating this one," he said, looking up at me with a grin.
"Might gotta do this shit on myself," he added, clearly proud of his work.
"So, matching?" I asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Shiii, it might have to be," he said, finishing up the sketch.
He prepped the needle and got to work. The familiar buzz filled the room, and I felt the first prick of the needle. "Remember when you ain't fucked wit me and was giving dirty looks at the time and taking my snacks"
