"yo Nick you wanna come with us, we about to go get something to eat?" Tae asked me
"na imma just clean up and then close, pick up something for me though ya know what I like" I said as she nodded as they all left. Grabbing the broom I began to sweep up dirt and hair all over the floor. The salon was doing great and I'm real happy with the success of it. Everyone comes here to do their hair and I can't complain about that ...shit I'm getting money.
"shit" I mumbled to myself as I knocked some shampoo bottles down. Bending down to pick them up I heard the door open.
"were closed" I said with my back to the door. Standing up I turned around to the customer who obviously ain't hear me the first time, but was shocked too see Chris and my father standing there.
"wussup Nicki" Chris said
"hey baby girl" my dad said as I cringed at him calling me that
"why are you here?" I asked him as he chuckled
"I came back for you, we came back for you, you thought you was gonna stay here forever?" he asked me not saying anything I dropped the shampoo bottles trying to run away from them but was cut short getting hit in the head with something.
Shooting up in I tried to catch my breath as I patted Meeks side of the bed to feel nothing. He never came home, this is a time I needed him and he's not even here. Grabbing my phone I dialed his number but he never answered, after 3 more tries I gave up. He's over reacting now, just because I didn't tell him about the dreams I had before we went to go see Ms. Kerry. I didn't tell him cause I knew how he would react, just like this he'd be mad at the world or seriously hurt somebody with no remorse, if they looked at him wrong, said something wrong, anything could easily trigger him and I don't want that.
Ms. Kerry is right, I mean don't get me wrong I am happy, I'm back with my man and my family, I have my salon but everything that happened with Chris I'm not completely over. I know I should get over it but it's hard, there are times where I'm still looking over my shoulder thinking he's following or has his eyes on me. Meek not coming home is so petty, and if he thought for one minute that it was okay he got another thing coming.
Looking at the time it was 4:13 in the morning and I'm not going back too sleep so I might as well get up. Making my way in the bathroom I walked over to the tub turning on the water and pouring in my vanilla scented body wash, I need to just relax and that's exactly what I'm going to do. How could we go from happy and let a good thing like last night turn into this. The situation is not even that serious, all we have to do is talk about it. Putting my hair up in a bun I stepped out my clothes and got in the tub, laying my head back thoughts scattered my head as well as today's events and the dream I just encountered.
I haven't been having these dreams back to back but whenever I do have them it's always him making a pop up visit and taking me back with him. And this dream he's with my father, what if that's a sign? What if Chris really came just for me? What if my father is not even really dead and came here with Chris like my dream? Shutting my eyes to stop the tears, I shook my head of the thoughts and tried my hardest to relax. I really just hope my dreams, stay dreams.
