TATTOO

Day of the Convention

Zeus and I made it to the convention. I was doing my best to ignore his cocky self. I JUST dont know why he irritates me so much. As we got down to the lobby we got to work asap. As I was doing tats I was watching Zeus. he is smooth with his tattoos abd designs. I can't jock that. Then he looked up at me and did a half grin. I felt sort of bad about how I treated him. I treat everybody the same. I got a hard shell but I'm soft in the inside you just got to know me. As we finished all the artist went out to a club on the beach. I wore a black body suit and MK stilettos. I had smokey effect with my makeup. I felt good I looked good.

  As I finally entered the lobby I saw Zeus. He had on all matching leather outfit and the red octobers by kanye west. he had style I give him that much.

Just then someone slapped my butt. I turned around and it was some two dollar Stevie J look alike. I raised my hand and slapped his face.

"Sorry shortly but you firm. You got a man." he said as he was groping me. Just then I felt another pair of hands slip around my waist. It was Zeus.

"Yeah homie she got a nigga! so step off." Then he kissed me. I turned red. The dude just stumbled off somewhere. I was still glowing by the kiss then my tough instincts. kicked in.

"I can handle my self. Why did you kiss me?!" I yelled pushing Zeus.

"Sorry I thought I was helping. You need a ride?" he asked me.

I looked around with too much pride I said no. He just shook his head at me. I felt stupid. I had to spend over 30 minutes trying to get a cab. I made it to the club within 2 hours. I was embarrassed. I walked in the club and it fairly packed. I went straight to the bar. I needed a drink.

I sat giving to the music until I saw Zeus come to the bar with two girls. one was dark skinned with a model figure and this wavy long weave and the other was Spanish with this too tight dress on and she had a vixen figure. Both basic than ever.

"Aye Brooklyn when you got here?" Zeus asked. The girls gave me these dry looks.

"Like ten minutes ago I caught a cab." I replied sipping my drink.

"You could have rode with me not no dirty cab shorty." He laughed . The girls laughed as well.

"You birds are laughing for what? You look so basic with your yeast infection outfits and your faux remi weave." I snarled. They start taking off their earrings like they want to bump. So before they can I send a bottle flashing to both of there heads. it gravitates a crowd. Zeus holds me back from fighting. He takes me outside to his car.

"Take me back to the hotel." I yell.

"No. Look you a pretty girl. Very pretty but your attitude is ugly. Its taking away from your beauty and talent. Real talent. You need to change yourself asap." he Saud as he pulled off. A tear rolled from my cheek. I stared out the window of his car. Back at the hotel we get a call back from Black Sam telling us to cut the convention short and get back home. He probably heard about the fight that quick.

The next day we return back to the shop. I see my station clean. I rush into his office.

"Sam where is my stuff yo who moved it?" I asked. he points to a box.

"I'm letting you go. You are not humble and I dont need it. I'm sorry."

My heart sinker in. I was about to cry. I ran out the shop. I ran into Zeus.

"Yo what's up shorty"?

"I got fired! He let me go. I dont care man." I said as I ran away. I didn't care where I was running to unjust had to let go of my tears. I am the best artist at that shop now im not even there. I ran home and jumped in my bed and just cried. I got several text from Zeus asking me what's up. I ignored them all. Why me though?
