Jah
California
Jah couldn't help but admire his girlfriend as she skillfully applied makeup on her clients face.
Her tongue slightly poked out as she swiftly moved the makeup brush.
She was finishing up her last client for the day. Jah had sat with her through her work shift. It's rare that he comes to the shop let along sit there. If he wasn't getting his hair braided by Stacy he was out minding his business.
He decided today he would surprise Liyah and pamper her today. She hasn't been feeling herself as the days progressed. She was now in her third trimester, not only was she always aching and tired but she wasn't feeling her new body. Their son had added extra weight on her. From her hips spreading to her breast doubling in size not to mention her butt appearing larger, Liyah missed her old body.
Jah let her know every chance he got how beautiful she was, he loved the extra weight, in his eyes it was more for him to love on.
He couldn't help but stare at her belly which was protruding, he couldn't believe that in two months his son will be here. It's still shocking to him that he's having a son, he would have been just as happy if it was a girl, he was happy that he would have a family member again.
Jah often finds himself daydreaming about if his grandma was still here, he just knew she would be all in giving tips left to right. He missed his grandma dearly, it's not a day that goes by that he's not thinking about her.
After her funeral he made a vow to himself that he'll be strong for Liyah and his son, he couldn't self destruct. They needed him and he needed them.
Jah's phone vibrated on the bar breaking him out of his thoughts. He looked to see that he had a text from Liyah's nail tech sending a reminder of her appointment time today.
Jah spent all yesterday booking appointments for Liyah even throwing in a few dollars for last minute appointments, he had scheduled a nail appointment, facial, and hair. He had noticed how she didn't have the energy to keep herself up and it was getting to her. It wasn't like Liyah to not have her nails or hair done. She's been spending her days in the salon which resulted in her neglecting herself, Jah wanted her to feel just as good as she makes other women feel.
With the help of Stacy of course he was able to get in touch with the people she goes to on the regular. Liyah was picky about who service her.
He had also received a text from her hairstylist which was another automated text informing him about her appointment type and time. He chose for her to get clip ins, whatever that meant, Stacy informed him that it was better than a wig install because she can maintenance it more and take care of her natural hair. Jah still didn't understand that difference but he trust Stacy's judgement. After all she is a woman, she knows more than he do.
