It has been a couple weeks since the club thing happened. You were able to go in detail to your friend about what happened, at least what you remembered after talking to Morowa to not only get a couple more details, but to also let her know that a "friend" was concerned and took you home. Morowa had offered up y'all hanging together at her place (meaning us + her fiancé) which you accepted out of feeling bad for the abrupt disappearance and to separate yourself from work and your apartment.. that happened to be connected to the same person coincidentally.

But nevermind that, Karla found out that the guy she slept with was married! Teetee also apparently was caught making out with your ex? Not that you think Teetee knew about the relationship, but it of course gave you the ick.

You were happy that you had gotten no disturbances from him and you would personally like to keep it that way. Plus you were around Sevika almost all the time, so it wouldn't really be in his favor.

Anyways, while Sevika tatted her clients, she would have you working on pig skin. Practicing and perfecting certain techniques and strokes. She gave you rundowns about certain types of customers, hygiene stuff, and how the parlor worked. There were 3 other tattoo artists, including Jinx, but 2 of them mainly kept to themselves in their own rooms.

They have one more extra room which is on the second floor that you will be gifted when she felt you were ready.

So far, you've had 3 clients, but they were all small, simple tats. Everyone else, you assisted her with.

She gave you Wednesdays and Thursdays off. Sometimes you got Mondays off. The days you were off, you were quarantined in your house completing schoolwork, binging shows, and eating ramen. But despite that, y'all were with each other almost everyday.

She picked you up in the morning at 7am and walked you home at night around 8-9pm. You were only technically working a 9-10 hour shift. Same for her. We had hour/s breaks in between where you could work on schoolwork if you wanted to or take a nap on the daybeds that they had around. She would typically leave or go to the 3rd floor which must be her office. Y'all practically had breakfast, lunch and dinner together. She was constantly the one buying the food.

So you decided to make breakfast and lunch since there was a very small kitchenette. They did have communal appliances as well. So you made egg sandwiches and small parfaits. Not just for you and Sevika, but also for Jinx.

The relationship between you and Jinx seemed somewhat stable. She mainly just used you as a teddy bear that held a comfortable presence. She would just be around, working on whatever she's working on or telling you about different things or napping against you. She was like a little sister to you. You didn't particularly mind, but Sevika was easily annoyed with it. You heard them bicker almost everyday.

You had just finished with a client with a small, simple tattoo of a cat. It was meant to symbolize their pet cat that passed away. That obviously tugged at your heart.

While cleaning up, Sevika had spoke up. "Should I get something or is the personal chef cooking?"

You rolled your eyes, but a big smile was paired with it. You looked over to her, seeing her lean against the doorway. Of course, lighting her cigar.

"That's not very hygienic Sevika." You said walking towards her and removing her cigar from her lips and pushing it into the ashtray.

She looked at her cigar then back at you. "That ought to be a strike." She smirked as she leaned closer to you.

You walked away shaking your head as you were putting back the cleaning supplies. "What do you mean? I just saved your lungs." You giggled.
