"And with that, we could make magic together. Adding a barbershop right next door to her salon would be everything. I'm tryna tell you. We'd be making so much money" a guy said to me and I nodded my head, I was over this conversation I just didn't want to be rude.
"Okay my brother, I got your card, I'll run the idea by wifey and if she is okay with it then I'll give you a call" I told him and he smiled before walking out the salon. I rolled my eyes as I got back to cleaning up.
"What was that about baby" Ari said as she came from the back, she was carrying a bag of clean towels and another bag of hair products to put on the wall. I grabbed both bags from her and sat them down.
"Just some nigga pitching an idea. But I'm not going for it. This is family business and family business only over this way" I told her and she smiled. I love when we have moments like this, working together.
"Papa I want another baby" Ari said and I almost choked on my spit. I looked at her and she was laughing.
"Mamas that ain't funny. We have 8 already" I said to her as I put the hair products on the shelf. She done lost her mind.
"But I miss being pregnant, walking around getting special treatment from everyone. You don't miss that" she asked me and I shook my head no.
"I wasn't getting special treatment, you were. I was getting treated like a dog out the street. Plus let's wait until the older kids are out of the house." I said and she smacked her lips before walking away.
"OOO COME ON MAMAS. DONT BE LIKE THAT" I yelled out while laughing. My phone was ringing so I pulled it out my pocket and answered.
"Yoooo" I said as I put the phone to my ear.
"Excuse the phone out of me. Is that how you answer the phone" my mom said and I laughed a little.
"I'm sorry ma. How are you doing" I asked as I sat down in one of the stylists chairs. Ari had came back to the front of the shop.
"When can I get my grandkids. I want to do a big sleepover" she said to me.
"Shit I'll drop them off after school, and what about me. What if I want to spend the night" I said catching Ari's attention.
"Oh big baby. How about this, you call up everyone and y'all come to my house, we will party all night. NO alcohol." She said and I smacked my lips as I thought about it.
"Can you make your famous chicken pot pie" I asked her and she laughed before answering.
"Yes my baby. I will" she told me.
"Deal I'll see you later ma" I told her and she hung the phone up. Ari was now standing infront of me with her hand on her hip.
"What was that about" she asked me with an attitude.
