Zaila Opal
*ring ring ring*
I rolled over finding phone and swiping to make the alarm turn off. I dragged myself out of bed and to my closet
'Hmmm what shall I wear today?' I said to myself. I grabbed my khaki ripped joggers a white tank and my burgandy vans off the wall. I tossed my hair into a bun.
I finished getting dressed and headed for the office. I had a small business named Zalia's Cutz. I owned a good sized building on 3rd and Main st. downtown. I got decent business there. I had a passion for cutting people's hair. It was like my get away from reality.
I walked in seeing that business was booming already and it's only 12:30 but it is Sunday. It's that before school starts rush and we make 1000s off it.
I greeted Rei'juh with a smile as she ran up and hugged me. she is my hair braider f the shop she is so talented at what she does. She is from Jamaica but came here after her family died in a fire while she was at school one afternoon.
"Hey gall so how was your weekend?" said her
"Typical you know in the house Netflix and chilling with my bestfriend 😴"
"Oh how's Hezekiah with his ass backwards self😂?" she said insulting him
"He been good him and his girl finna get married girl and got a baby on the way" I smiled at the thought of how they were so happy
'Shit you should be the one getting married. bitch how long has it been since u got some dick" she straight faced me. I couldn't help but laugh because I knew she was right.
"It's been like 4 months that's not to bad" I said pretending to defend myself
"Thats too damn long girl I can't go a full 48hrs without it." she said blushing at the thought of her and Toney's relationship.
"I knew my boy Toney be giving you that good dick" I said laughing she gave a death glare and I immediately stopped. I backed away slowly. I walked to the Sign-In sheet. I drug my finger down it going to the next client.
"Yei-yeivon." I stumbled
"It's Yeivon pronounced like Devon with an e but instead a y" he corrected me
"My bad man. shit I'm sorry" I said faking defeat.
"You good ma.' he said smoothly. OMG he called me ma I love that shit it just does some to me.
"Follow me right this way" I said walking making sure he followed.
I sat him down in my station and put on the cover up. I looked down at him "What do you want done?"
"Well I want the tips of my hair dyed a deep dark but vibrant purple, then I want the sides faded then I want a design on the side. Think you could do that for me babyehh?"
"Positive" I started.
>30 mins later<
"Okay Yeivon I think your dry now." i said taking him from under the dryer
"Ight" he got up and walked back to the chair.
I started blow drying his hair and the purple was so cute on him. It matched his Beautiful Smooth caramel skin.
