I wake up after a rough night of sleep. It was so hot in my room, I kept tossing and turning, it was horrible.
Another day at the tattoo parlor which you know I will always be happy about.
It's kinda turning into fall which is my favorite season ever!! I throw on jeans and a hoodie.

The outfit ^
I walk downstairs to see a man standing with my father.
"Who is this?" I say smiling greeting him with a hand shake. "Stella this is your new body guard." My father looks everywhere but at me.
"I'm sorry?" I step back. "Look Stella I know who that flame guy is and if he shows up I want him here to protect you." He clears his throat.
I scoff "you've got to be kidding me." I walk out to go to my car but I see a black car in front of it. "Ha! If you think that I'm getting in that emo car you'd be wrong."
I walk around it and go to my pink car. Yes it's pink, but like a cute light pink that has eyelashes on the car lights.
I know it's very cute. My body guard beats me to the driver seat like the loser he is.
I roll my eyes and get in the passenger spot.
We drive to my work place and I walk in to see penis tattoo guy just waiting outside for me.
My body guard walks in front of me. "Oh please." I push him aside and open my place.
"So what are you doing here penis tattoo?" I look at him. "Thought you would want an update on my tattoo Stella Graze." He uses my first and last name that I never told him.
"Well let me see." I shrug it off. I don't really care if people know who I am. He pulls his pants down and it still looks quite red.
"You did get it yesterday so this is normal." I touch around it. "Don't get too excited now." He says.
"Oh you are nasty." I stopped touching it and he pulls up his pants.
"Hey buddy why don't you be useful and get me some coffee." I smile at him. "Jack." He said. "Okay sorry Jackie." I shoo him off.
I work on my first client and penis guy is still following me around. "So penis tattoo if you're gonna follow me around tell me your name."
My client laughs a little. "First tell me who that guy you came in with." He crosses his arms. "Body guard. Name?"
"Caius." He scowls as if his name makes him angry. "Hmmm what does that mean?" I ask still working on this butterfly tattoo.
"I don't know." He looks at me. "Girl you telling me this man is following you around and you didn't even know his name?" The client laughs.
"Hey he wouldn't give up!" I defend myself laughing.
Jack walks in with my coffee and he still looks stiff at Caius. "Thanks Jackie." I grab the coffee and finish the tattoo.
"Alright that will be 120." I walk her over to the cashier.
She pays and leave. I turn to Jack who just looks like a real party pooper. "Oh Jackie you need to calm down, how about you go get me more ink." I pat his back.
He leaves hesitantly.
"Alright Caius I checked your tattoo so what are you really doing here?" I look at him.
"I guess I can get going if you really want me to." He shrugs and grabs his stuff. I nod my head.
"Oh and one more thing." He turns around. "Tell your father I say "service"." I says in an French accent.
"What does that mean?" I scrunch my eyebrows but hd ignores me.

I get done with all my tattoo clients and go back home. Jack insisted to drive me home yet again.
"Hay papi." I walk in to see my dad in the kitchen. "Hey how was work?" He asks. "Good Caius showed back up." I grab a water in the fridge.
"Oh so now your on a name basis that's great!" He says frustrated. "Dad it's fine." I roll my eyes. "No it's not fine!" He yells.
"Dad I'm not arguing with you! He's been nothing but nice to me!" I walk up the stairs before turning around.
"Oh and he wanted me to tell you something "service" I think, it was in French I believe." I shrugged turning around leaving him there.
I'm so exhausted. I throw on black sweatpants and a grey sweatshirt.

I need to go get water downstairs so I grab my water bottle.
I go downstairs and my father is still there but he's on the phone pacing pack and forth.
"What's wrong papi?" I look at him worried. "Nothing Stella go upstairs." He rubs his hands through his hair. "Papi just tell me." I go up to him.
"I said go upstairs Stella!!!!" He screams. I flinch and jump back. I breath slowly. "I'm not fighting with you right now." I say calmly.
His face softens. "I'm sorry Stella I'm just stressed." He looks guilty. "It's fine just please tell me what's wrong so I can help fix it." I approach him.
"It's nothing that you can do to help but it's about what Caius said that's all." He shakes his head.
"Oh yea do you know what that translate to?" I ask. "Favor." He sighs.
My eyes widen. "Why do you owe him a favor?" I bite my lip. "Back in the day." He says wincing like it was real bad back then.
"Okay I won't pry, goodnight papi." I kiss his cheek and go back upstairs.
I yawn and grab my laptop. School is starting back up again so I have to organize. I'm starting college this year I got into brown university which I'm pretty proud of.
And I did it all by myself no money payed off or nothing. I get my folders organized and I get my school stuff ordered.
I'm really tired at this point and it's time to go to bed. I crawl under my covers and fall right asleep.
I don't know what the favor is gonna be from my father?
What does Caius want?
I'm so confused right now I'll ask to ask my father.
