"Okay, come the fuck through sis, looking like a runway model" Nia said as soon as she spotted Destiny entering the shop. Destiny walked through looking and feeling like a million bucks. One her face was an undeniable glow that anyone could see from a mile away. Destiny smiled widely as she made her way over to where Nia and Kenya were stationed. She did her best catwalk impression, switching from her regular stride to supermodel status in a matter of seconds. She stopped at the end of the imaginary stage and struck a few poses, drawing laughs from everyone in the room. One of them being Ming the owner of the establishment.

Ming's Nail Shop was a spot that Destiny, and Kenya frequented. It was something they started doing when Kenya first moved to Georgia. At that time Aaron had just gotten drafted so he and Kenya made the decision to move there in order to be closer to the team. That was nearly six years ago. Before the move Kenya and Destiny hadn't seen one another since they were children. Destiny's mom moved them to Atlanta when she was seven years old, hoping to find better job opportunities. The distance put a strain on their relationship. Kenya wasn't happy when Aaron first told her about the move but the fact that she had family in Georgia helped to ease her worries a bit. She couldn't wait to see her favorite little cousin. Destiny and Kenya were so close when they were younger that it often made their other cousins jealous. All of that changed when Destiny moved away.

After a few weeks in Atlanta Kenya finally put her nerves to the side and contacted her favorite little cousin. They wasted no time getting reacquainted. Destiny and Kenya would often link up at Ming's to have a girls day and before they knew it the two of them were as thick as thieves again. Kenya was lonely in a new city so she often looked forward to their weekly meet and greets. Back then she had no children and Aaron's schedule was keeping him busy. If it wasn't for Destiny's company, Kenya most likely would have gone insane. They ended up meeting Nia months later at one of Aaron's games. The trio clicked almost instantly. Not too long after Destiny and Kenya started inviting Nia to join them on their weekly outings and the rest was history.

"Baby, Tyra aint got shit on me!" Destiny quipped, as she sashayed over to her chair. Since she was running fashionably late Kenya and Nia had already started without her. By this time one of Ming's techs had already prepared a station for her with a glass of wine waiting on standby. Destiny took her time removing her heels. She slowly eased her feet into the warm water. Instantly she felt relaxed and tingly all over. Destiny couldn't wait to get her massage next so that she could really unwind.

Nia was digging Destiny's new look. She noticed that Destiny was rocking a few pieces that even she hadn't had the chance to cop yet which was a bit odd because Nia was the one out of the bunch that most considered the fashionista. There wasn't much that she didn't have in her closet when it came to fashion. Nia was usually always up on the latest trends. Motherhood had her slipping lately. Kenya didn't miss the new threads that her cousin was rocking either. She was used to Destiny borrowing things from her closet and never returning them, but the clothes she was seeing on Destiny's back now didn't belong to her. They appeared to be brand new.

"Miss thing, those are certainly not my hand me downs. Either you found yourself a good ass plug or this is a very real looking knock off "Kenya said, grabbing Destiny's bag for a better observation.

"Nope, Tye took me shopping earlier today"Destiny said before playfully snatching her bag back.

It was a beautiful blue mini Chanel flap bag. She was also rocking a new fit and shoes to match. Hell, even her hair looked freshly done like she had just gotten out of the chair. Kenya was shocked to hear that Tye had paid for all of that so soon. By the looks of it the boy had spent at least four bands on her already. Little did she know Tye hadn't planned on getting her hair done at all. That was something he felt obligated to do since he was responsible for messing it up. Turns out He's got the stamina of the damn energizer bunny. Even after their crazy night and morning session, they ended up getting it on in the shower too. Destiny's hair was through after all of that, So he paid to get it fixed.
