Welp, I guess this is the beginning... Hello there! Nice to see you today how ya doing today good? Great, now my name is Emily rose Lucifer. I guess you could say I'm the creepy, weird kid you see in the halls that doesn't say a word to anyone. When I was in middle school everyone bullied me for my last name being another name for the devil but it didn't bother me. I was bullied a lot especially by my crush Marcus dobre he was so dreamy but i was ugly with braces, acne and glasses and I was fat, you know the middle school stage we all went through but luckily puberty hit me like a whole massive dump truck that drive on busy huge highways. Highschool came around and I still had bad acne and braces along with having to wear glasses still. I tried to wear makeup but my parents wouldn't let me neither would my older brother, so I was considered the ugliest kid in the school and basically alive and yes Marcus still bullied me but I ignored him. He was my crush since middle school but I haven't seen him in 5 years. I'm now 23 and I'm off to bigger and better things now. I'm glad my school years are over it was definitely a tragedy and a whole hell on wheels. I live in LA in my small apartment in the city. I moved here from Maryland when i was 19 ever since I got accepted to my dream college it's a beauty school basically. I then finished the school when I was 22 so last year and now I work at a beauty Salon for guys and girls I trim hair for girls and guys I do hair, makeup, nails, waxing and all those things. It's fun I work full time and make good money, soon I'm going to apply to a designer school in Paris, France when I raise enough money and learn some French before I head off hopefully soon🛬💨. I'm Italian and I look like this I definitely have a weird sense of humor that most people don't really understand. I'm a layed back person and I just like to make people laugh and smile. I love making peoples day's I can also be the sassy type depends on the day and my mood. You get on my nerves it's most likely that I'll bitch slap you but other than that it's all good and we cool. Now my brother is just dumb. He was the football jock back in highschool and he still is a jock he was considered the "popular kid" in school he's now 29 so we are only 6 years apart. I'm currently chilling at my apartment doing nothing as usual. I got up and looked out at the view of the beautiful city. I was sipping on my cup of coffee wearing some grey sweatpants with s white T-shirt with a v-neck. It was 9:00am and I leave for work at 10:00am and its 15mins away so not so far. I then decided to get dressed for work so I put on this.
I left my hair down and put on some mascara and I grabbed my car keys and phone. I then left the apartment after locking up then I went down the elevator "Good morning" I said to Keisha and smiled "Mornin boo" Keisha replied and smiled back. Keisha is the girl who works at the apartment like to make sure everything's okay. I left and got into my car and played "lil love song" by Tash. I sang along until I arrived at work. I walked inside and said hi to everyone "Hey clumsy" my best friend Monica that I woke with said "Hey m" I said back. She calls me clumsy cause I always make a mistake or embarrass myself at work everyday "You doing hair today?" she asked me "you know it" I answered back to her "alright ladies read for another day at work?" Monica asked everyone and they all replied yes then we opened the store. I was adjusting the hair products and one bottle fell down and spilt everywhere "aww man ugh now I have to clean it up" I said annoyed at his stupid I am "Haha you need some help" Monica asked me laughing "Nope I'm great, just great" I said while grabbing the mop and bucket. I mopped it up and put up the caution wet floor sign up so know one would fall or get hurt. The bell rang which means we have a customer so it basically is just a sound system for whenever someone walks in and does it get annoying you may ask? Yes, yes it does, very much so. "Welcome to "Ulta Salon" " (Which was the name of our store) I said as I continued to set out the bottles "Hey clumsy" Monica said "Yea?" I said concentrating on not making another bottle fall again "This gentlemen needs a trim can you meet with him at chair 4 please while I help this customer over here with her nails" Monica said to me as I was still setting out the bottles "Uh sure be right with you sir" I replied. I then was finally done and I cleaned myself off and stepped down from the little stool I half to stand on so I can reach all the shelves. I turned around and I have never seen anyone more familiar in my life "Hi do you mind waiting for me at chair 4 right over their please" I said then softly smiled "Yes m'am" I then walked over to Monica "Ok that tell me that guy does not look like my bully from middle school and highschool" I said to her as she was cleaning a ladies nails "Oh my god it does look like him but how would you run into him in LA if he lives all the way in Maryland like someone would fly to LA for just a haircut" she laughed "Your right ok well whatever it's probably just someone who looks similar to him" I said then I walked back over to him and he was waiting in the chair "Sorry for the wait sir, now would you be interested in a free coupon to come back and get one free trim along with a buy one get one free shampoo bottle coupon next time you visit?" I asked him in a kindly manner "Sure why not" he replied and I handed him both coupons "Have you ever visited here?" I asked him and he shook his head no "We would love you to join our free sale this Saturday of men shampoo and conditioner along with body wash for 50% off the more the merrier" I smiled "I mean that sounds good sure" he replied "Alright now what kind of trim would you like today?" I asked "Umm just a basic trim nothing big, just the ends" he said looking in the mirror messing with his hair "Sounds good" I opened our drawer and grabbed out scissors and hair spray along with some gel. I put some gel in his hair to help me brush it so it would be easier to trim. I walked in front of him to put the black thing over him so the hair wouldn't get on his clothes. I walked back behind him and adjusted the chair so I could see well in the mirror and so could he. I grabbed a comb and combed out his curls he had along with the blonde he had in his hair " The gel won't effect the dye now will it?" He asked me "Nope no worry's it's all good" I replied to him and continued to comb his hair "So what's your name?" He asked "My names Emily" I answered "Funny, I used to know a girl named Emily back in highschool" I then got curious what if this really is Marcus? "Oh cool were y'all friends?" I added curious of what he would say "Well..not exactly I wouldn't say friends just kind of strangers but not really" he answered "Hm" When I finished combing his hair I then started to trim it. "So what's your name?" I asked him "Marcus" oh..my..god no way IT IS HIM! I can't believe I'm actually with him and talking to him right now oh my lord he looks so good but he probably doesn't recognize me because I have changed ALOT but in a good way but still I was fat, ugly, had bad acne, and had braces and glasses back in middle school and highschool. "Nice name" I said "Thanks, you too" he said and smiled and i returned one. I continued trimming "So how old are you and how long have you been working here?" He asked "I'm 23 and I've been working here a couple years now" i answered to him then combed his hair again "Cool, I'm 23 also" he said. I still can't believe this is Marcus I mean should I tell him I'm that girl from highschool or just keep it on the low? You know what I'll just tell him wait no wait I don't know uugghhhh "is this good so far?" I asked him moving his hair around a bit "Yea it's good" he answered. I then blow dried his hair a bit then put down the blow drier and fixed his hair some. I moved some pieces of hair and kind of fluffed it a bit I then stood in front of him and did the same thing I then backed up a bit to see it from a different distance and angle "Perfect! Ok I'm done I hope you like it" I then took off the black thing off from around his neck and moved out his way so he could see in the mirror "Wow, you did amazing thank you" he said as he stood up and looked closer in the mirror "No problem, anytime" I smiled he turned to face me and returned one "So how much is the cost?" He asked "Only $5.99" I said and he handed me the money and thanked me again then before he walked out "Wait" he turned back around and walked towards me "Here's my phone number, maybe we could talk later or I can just hit you up and we could you know, hang out or something like that" he smiled and i blushed a little and smiled "Thanks and sure sure of course here's my number let me just grab a pen" I grabbed a pen from the desk and came back "Mind if I write it on your hand?" I asked him "It doesn't matter" he said and then I wrote my number in his hand and took the piece of paper with his number on it "So I'll text you later" he said and smiled "Yea yea of course bye thanks again for coming" I smiled and he nodded and smiled back then waved and I waved back and then he left "Ouuu girl I see you" Monica said "Oh whatever were just friends" I said and laughed "Mhmm that's what they all say sweetheart" she said "Shut up" I laughed and so did he. I can't believe I saw Marcus Dobre and talked to him after 5 years since we graduated.. but when am I going to tell him I'm Emily from highschool? I don't want to embarrass my self.... What do I do??(TBC)
