"Thank you so much, Lancy! This means a lot to me. Alexandra will be so happy to hear this news!", Dawne said, lookin at the business card that the woman, Lancy, handed to him.
"No problem. I just fired an employee last week because he was messing around with the clients. You seem nice and very professional.", Lancy said, her hands in her pockets.
Dawne smiled at her positive comment, "I give my word that I will be at my best behaviour. I'm sure your clients will love my tech."
"Yeah, about that.", Lancy stood leaning on the counter of the front desk of her tattoo studio, "You said it won't cause any pain or redness."
"Indeed, I did.", Dawne smiled proudly, "It will not cause any pain but the redness? It may depend on the skin type. If it's a soft skin, it would definitely have redness for an hour but I have a solution for it to prevent any irritation or infection. I can assure you that nobody has a tech like mine, Lancy. You can get more clients through me.", he added convincingly.
"Sure, sure, whatever, but I don't trust anything until I see it.", Lancy added.
"I can bring it tomorrow as I promised."
Lancy sighed, nodded and looked at Dawne up and down again and asked, "Where are you from, Dawne? What are doing right now?"
'Shit, I haven't prepared a lie for that yet.', Dawne thought to himself.
"I...", Dawne tried to come up with a trustable lie but he couldn't think of anything suddenly, "I'm actually from...uh-"
Dawne was cut off by the phone ringing in his pants' pockets. The vibration startled him a bit but he was so pleased to be interrupted at that moment.
He pulled the phone out and saw an unknown number. He didn't know if he could pick it up and answer it because that was Alexandra's phone. Without thinking, he swiped the answer button and placed the phone near his ear.
"Uh... who's this?"
"DAWNE SENOX, WHERE THE HELL YOU ARE?", Alexandra's angry voice came through the phone and Dawne felt like his eardrums are bleeding at her screech.
Even though the phone wasn't in speaker, Lancy heard the angry shouting of a woman. She stifled a laugh while looking at Dawne who winced at the voice of his lover.
"WHAT THE HELL YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING? AND WHY DID YOU PUT OLEE ON THE SEAT LIKE THAT? I JUST LEAVE YOU ALONE FOR FIVE MINUTES AND YOU THOUGHT YOU CAN DO ANYTHING YOU WANT? IS LISTENING TO MY WORDS THAT HARD FOR YOU?"
"Darling, I'm sorry. Can-can you just calm down for a second? Let me explain.", Dawne spoke softly and he already walked away from Lancy so that she couldn't hear what Alexandra was yelling about.
"Dawne, did you even listen to a word I said? You can't just wander away like that around here and why did you do that Olee? He can't even move.", Alexandra said in a calm yet strict voice. She never got angry at Dawne but she wasn't angry, she was extremely worried.
That's when Dawne remembered about Olee and in what state he put him in. He stayed silent in guilt when he heard Alexandra sighing loudly.
"Where are you right now?", she asked.
Dawne looked at Lancy, "Where are we right now?"
"Inkredible tattoo studio.", she answered, trying not to laugh at Dawne's kicked puppy face.
"Uhm...can you tell her the address?", he handed the phone to her. Lancy took it from him and spoke on the phone, "Hello?"
"Hi, I'm really sorry if he has given you any trouble."
