I skipped outside to the car with my bags and sat in there, she looked at me and shaked her head " let me guess, Lloyd?" she says starting the car " yeah, he said he was going to be at the park hang out today, he wanted to see me there" I say in excietment. I looked threw all my new stuff as we drove off to the hair salon. She parked the car and we both go out, we sat there waiting for my appointment. " Inida? , is she here there is a chair open for you" she says holding a clip borad. I stood up and walked to the chair. " So is this your first time?" she asks getting me set for shampooing , " No, not my first time getting it done, i keep up with my hair" I say to her in a useful tone. She seemed to notice my cockiness and not take a liking to it.
" Alright well my name is Gina, and you should come here more often and bring buniess to my shop , it would do me good" she says washing my hair. I smile and giggle " oh thanks, lets see how you do the first time" I say sitting back and relaxing. I got nervous I didn't know how to react to my hair getting done down here in the ghetto, it was hard im so use to being around white people and them doing my hair. Hours pass and my hair is finished, " wow! this is great!" I say touching the tight curls on the side of my hair. It was braided tight on one side and curled poofed out on the other. " And thats not all I can do , just keep coming back and I will have your hair on lock" she says dusting off her chair for her next Client. "Thanks so much Ms.Gina" I say with a huge smile on my face.
I grabbed my stuff and walk out with Amiah. " Girl she hooked you up! Gina got the skills to pay the bills girl, and that is the truth!" she says hoping in the car. I smile holding my bags, I become thankful because no one has ever did this for me. Amiah actually helped me change my image and I am so greatful." Now! its time to put this stuff on girl! , trust me your going to love your new look!" she says zooming home.
I lay back relaxing and we arrive at her house I was starled because she braked hard and it snatched my neck. " Girl! , you going to make my neck snap breaking like that" I say getting out the car and rubbing my neck. She laughs " girl! you will be allllrightt" she says holding my bags for me and walking into the house. I begin to smell the aroma of greens and fried fish, it smelled good!. "Mamaw! we're home!, " she says yelling " oh welcome back baby cakes!, i got food on the stove for yah and your favorite fish" she says stiring the greens. " Thanks grandma! , we will be ready to eat once she gets ready" she says putting all the stuff on the kitchen counter. I smile at the grandma " and where yall going?" she says with her hand on her hip " Mamaw! i told you, we are going to the park hang out tonight , we will be back before midnight" she says sitting at the kitchen table.
I begin to feel bad for grandma I mean she does all this stuff and Amiah seems like she doesnt recgonize it. " Well alright then , but please eat before you go I made it speical for you" she says turning her body to the greens and finsihes cooking them. I sigh and look at Amiah " alright alright grandma we will eat, I could never miss my grandma's eatin, besides it would be rude to just skip out on your mea when you worked so hard to cook it" she says with a upright additude. I smile and pick up all my things and make my way to Amiah's room. I sit the stuff down by the tv and pull out my phone.
Ten missed calls?! from my father! I knew for sure I was dead! , he was worried sick calling me ten times in the same hour! " Oh man!" I begin to panic and pace her floors. I call him back but no answer! I cant stand when he calls me ten times but I call back! you wont answer the first time. But then again I can still feel his pain. I call once again and he finally answers in a clam tone so he could give me a chance to answer " hello! Dad?" I say in panic " India! , where in the world are you!? caling your phone ten times! India you have lost your mind" he says in a huge panic, he sound scared to death his voice was shakey and he sounded like he was driving. " Dad i'm fine I was with Amiah the whole day, I meant to call but I got caught up!" I say trying to save myself the effort.
" This wont happen again! do you understand?! I want you home after before mid-night!" he says loudly to me. " Okay I will" I say in an affined tone. I hung up the phone and took a deep breath in and let it out. I never had to go threw that with my dad, he was scared to death he didnt really trust Amiah when she came to hang with me last summer, but she had no friends then and I wanted to change that. Amiah walks up the stairs and opens her door " whats good peoples!" she says plooping on her bed. I laugh " nothing , just got off the phone with pops , seems like he was worried havent called all day" I say sitting on the bed. I look at her waiting for her answer " Well you will be fine girl you got me!" she says " now! Lets get you readdy!" she says dumping the new clothes out. I felt that if this was a fantasy was I really going to get rid of my Goodie goodie Title , the rrich girl , the spolied girl? Am I. Wow change is coming and i get more and more exicted by the minute.
