(Cliff in MM)

"Work hard, make money and have fun." - Sal Greco

Three months later

Omniscient POV

"So I know y'all probably wondering why I called y'all in here."

"I hope it's sunnin important. I had to call Big Ray Ray to pick up lil ray ray from football practice," Tashley said smacking on a piece of gum.

"Um that's what fathers supposed to do," Michael said shaking his head. "Why the fuck your chewing on that gum like dat, looking like a donkey."

"And you look like herpes with that nasty ass bump on ya lip." She fired back.

"How about y'all both shut up." Cliff said not in the mood to hear the two bicker back and forth.

"I have somewhere to be so could we hurry this up," Kitty said after checking the time on her cellphone.

"Prolly to suck some dick."

Tashley attempted to mumbled but failed because everyone heard her.

"Y'all have no chill." Heather said.

Blair nodded in agreement.

Her co workers were constantly throwing shade and bickering with each other. After working at the salon for a little over three months Blair tried to stay to herself as much as possible while at work.

"So I asked you all to stay a little while later today to talk to you about a few things."

"Well let's hear it." Heather said.

"For starters, I'll be leaving tomorrow morning for Miami."

"Miami? What's in Miami?" Tashley loudly interrupted.

"I'm doing all the models hair that will be in the video."

"How long will you be gone?" Blair asked.

"A week. So while I'm gone Heather will be in charge and take care of all manager duties."

Heather smiled at the news.

"Next thing is I'll be taking someone with me to help with doing hair so I'm not overwhelmed the entire time."

"Unnn unnn. I gotta see if my cousin Shakinah a watch lil ray ray while I'm gone. I ain't never been to Miami before." She said pulling her cellphone from out of her bra.

"Yo ratchet ass prolly ain't been to Bankhead." Mike joked.

"Cliff why would you tell us so late notice. I gotta get me a swimsuit and cover up!"

Kitty said playing with her hair in one of the work station mirrors.

"Not to bust y'all bubble or nothing, but niether of y'all heifers is coming. I'm taking Blair with me."!

"What?!" Both Blair and Kitty said at the same time in shock.

"Cliff I don't know about that."

"Well it's kinda see in stone already booked our flight and hotel rooms."

Blair sighed but nodded her head in agreement. She didn't have much of a choice, she didn't want the money he spent for her to come with to go to waste.

"I can't believe your going to Miami without me!"

"It's just a week Gabby and it's for work it's not like I'll be out there partying."

She focused her attention back on the road as they pulled out of the the mall's parking lot. Gabrielle insisted on the two going to the mall to shop for Blair's trip in the morning, even though Blair was just fine with packing with what she already had at home. After hours of shopping in multiple stores Blair was leaving out with enough clothes for the entire trip.

"So I have an idea."

"Okay spill."

"Why don't you ask that papa guy to pay for your trip to Miami so you can come." Blair suggested.

"That's not a bad idea actually. I'll call him when we get back home.

Shortly after, the two made it home both heading to there rooms. While Blair went off to start packing and trying things on again Gabrielle went to her room to call Papa so that he could book her flight. Cliff was going to meet Blair at the airport in the morning for their nine forty-five flight. What started out as Blair supposed to be painting her nails turned into her falling asleep for the rest of the night.

Next Morning

"I really need to find me papa! I needs me one." Blair joked.

As last minute as it was Gabrielle was coming to Miami all expenses paid by her man; papa.

"Girl you don't need the headache that comes with one. Trust me." She sighed.

After checking their bags into the baggage claim the girls met Cliff by the entrance to board the plane. Gabrielle and Cliff had already met so introductions were not needed between the two. The two actually had it right off with their similar personalities. They were both very blunt and outspoken. Once all three had met up they boarded the plane, doing their own things to keep them occupied through the plane ride.

After arriving safely at the hotel they would be staying at they checked in and made there way to their rooms. Luckily, they were all staying on the same floor.

"Shit I don't know about y'all asses, but a nigga tied." Cliff said stopping in front of his room door.

"I have these ugly ass bags u see my eyes. I definitely need to sleep these off."

Gabrielle added.

"It's two now we could meet back up at my room at six." Blair suggested.

The idea of a nap didn't sound bad at all to Blair. She herself was tired from packing last night and then having to wake up early to make to the airport in time for her flight.

"That's cool. We can go over our schedule for the week then."

Blair nodded in agreement while Gabrielle stood off to the side texting away on her cellphone.

The three talked a little more before saying their separate ways. Blair unpacked her luggage and showered before getting into bed and making herself comfortable. She made sure to send her mom a quick text telling her good night and letting her know she had made it to Miami safely. Her last thoughts before sleep overcame her were thoughts of excitement. Not only was she in beautiful Miami but she was here to make money. Nothing was better than taking a trip just to make money.
