Tainted Pleasures(Lesbian)

Chapter 3-Healing a broken heart prt1

I woke up to the sound of my alarm clock blaring. It was 5:30a.m, I had to get up and get motivated to go open my shop. Stretching my arms above my head, I swung my legs to the side of the bed, and slid my feet into my gucci bedroom slippers. I got up and walked to the bathroom. I washed my face, brushed my teeth, and took a shower. Then I went to my closet to get out something casual to wear.

Monday's were pretty slow at the shop, I had two clients coming in today. Since Le'Asia my right hand stylist was going to be running late, I had to open this morning. I decieded to put on a pink and black Applebottom T-shirt, and some ashe grey skinny jeans with my black and pink Chuck Taylor's. I applied a lil' makeup, grabbed my cell phone, my keys, my purse and was out the door by 7:10a.m.

I got in my car and hit play on my CD player, and the sound of Kelly Rowland's, "Kisses down low" flowed through my car speakers, and I jammed all the way down 85 to work. About thirty minutes later, I was pulling into Dynamic Stylez, hair and nail bar. I pulled into my designated parking space, which read "Owner Parking Only". I have been in business for a little over 2 years. My mother and father bought the building for me for my graduation present. I was so happy to be able to say that I own and run my own hair and nail salon. This had always been a dream of mine, and thanks to hard work and determination, Dynamic Stylez was a wonderful blossoming and booming business. I walked into the shop and smiled at all my accomplishments, but my smile was torn away when I noticed a picture of my ex, KeyShonna and I hanging on the mirror of my work station. I instantly tore it down, balled it up, and tossed it in the trash. I hadn't spoken to her, much less had the desire to do so, since Friday night at the club. Although she has called me over a hundred times, to which I just hit ignore and sent her straight to my voicemail. More than likely, she was probably trying to papologise, and confess her love for me. I could care less though, if she was that stupid and dumb enough to hurt me like that, then fuck her I was done being her play toy. I put her out of my mind while I gathered supplies and smocks for the day, and stocked my inventory shipment that had come in over the weekend. Since I had pretty much gotten everything prepared for the day, and I still had about an hour and forty-five minutes to kill. I decided to check my voicemails, and my text messages. I had six voicemails, and four texts. I had ignored my phone basically all weekend, and didn't bother to return anyone's calls or text messages. As I scanned through my voicemails, which were mainly from my ex, I came across one from my mother.

"Hello!, Onnipooh...it's mama. What's going on with you and this girl?...Lord!...she has been calling me non-stop, crying and carry'n on. Talking bout how she's sorry for the way she hurt you and how she can't live without you. Baby what happened? I'm sure whatever it is can be fixed. Call me and talk to that girl, before I have to change my damn number...talk to you soon...love you baby girl...Bye!"

I couldn't believe that Key actually had the nerve to call my mama. What the hell did she think was going to come from that, did she honestly think that my mother could make me accept her apology, and let the shit go? I didn't fuck'n think so. Hmph! as far as the situation goes, it was dead to me and so was any hope for reconciliation between the two of us. Yes, I still have love for Key, but there is just certain shit I don't tolerate, much less am willing to put up with in a relationship. I glanced at the digital clock hanging above my station, it was just about time for my first client to arrive. I walked over to the plasma tv that hung on the wall near water cooler, and turned on the morning news. I unlocked the front doors and sat at my station and waited for, my first client Shannon to pull up in the parking lot. Shannon pulled up five minutes before her appointment, and came in the shop as cheerful as she always is.

"Good Morning, sugah...I hope your morning is going beautifully boo." she greeted me excitedly.

"Girl, it's going...I guess." I smirked. "So what's been going on Shan?, you and Dominique doing alright, how are the girls?" I asked.

"Chal...Domo and I are less and less everyday. She can't seem to keep her hands or her strap to herself. I mean I'm not no ugly girl I'm 22, and yea I have two kids, but we maintain and do the best we can as parents. She on the other hand, thinks that life is just one big ass orgy party, and wants to have her fuckin' cake and eat that shit too."

"Shan, why do you keep putting yourself through this stupidity, I asked sympathetically. You know you only making it easier for Domo to think that she can just fuck around and do whatever the fuck she feels like doing." I said softly as I thought about my own situation. I placed a towel around her neck, and proceeded to shampoo her hair.

"Girl I know, it's so damn hard because I honestly feel like we can save what we have", she said sadly, but enough about me and my drama...when are you and Key gon' tie the knot?" she asked with a huge smile.

I looked at her disapprovingly, "KeyShonna ain't shit...we are no longer a couple, and the rest of the details I don't wana talk about!" I replied with a slight attitude. I didn't mean to come off like a bitch, but I didn't want to think or talk about Key. I was trying my best to keep her as far away from my thoughts as possible.

"My bad boo, I didn't mean to upset you.", she said.

"Nah...nah, I'm the one in the wrong. I didn't mean to be so snappy with you Shan, my bad girl. I'm just trying not to think about her trifling ass, that's all...I apologise", I said as I was rinsing her hair. I massaged some leave-in conditioner into her scalp, and put a plastic cap on her and had sit under the hair dryer as my next client walked in. I felt my cell phone vibrating I'm my smock, I took it out and the caller id read, Big Sis. I swiped my finger across my screen, motioned for Kim to have a seat, and rested the phone between my ear and my shoulder.

" Wasup! Sis?", I asked as I began to take down Kim's sew-in.

"Chilling, on my way over to the shop to come and get my hair freshened up and take you to lunch, what time were you thinking about going to go eat?", she asked.

"Well I'm waiting for Le'Asia to come in. She should be here by 12pm, it's going on 11am now. So I should be ready by one." Mya and I tried to do lunch everyday, it was our thing. "Aight boo, well I'll see you at about 12:30pm, so you can freshen up these curls love."

"I guess I could do that sis", I laughed. We hung up and I finished up both my clients just as Le'Asia was coming into the shop.
