Today was my Meet and Greet at Diamonds on Peach Street, three doors down from Deondre's barbershop. I am wearing a Ice gray Kimono sleeve tie waist midi dress and clear heeled court shoes from Pretty Little Thing with a gray clutch from Steve Madden. I have my hair in deep curls and Lisa did my makeup while I was on the phone with my mom. After eating a salad for lunch from Panera Bread, Lisa and I headed over to Diamonds.
Meeting Bo at the curb, he escorted me inside while there was a long line of women and men ages from infants to maybe 40-50. I stopped to wave at them and sign a few autographs while taking pictures with them. When I was younger, I was always quiet and never liked attention so seeing people scream my name and cry when they see me always get to me and make me realize how far I've come. I never thought I would be this big. After being told to wrap it up, I went inside to get ready for my fans to come in.
Sitting at the table for three hours taking pictures, signing autographs, and talking to all of my fans, I've noticed my body got really hot. Looking away from this cute little girl that was just telling me how I was her role model, I see Deondre walk in with a big box of Rose Gold roses from Venus et Fleur.
"Thank you sweetie. Make sure you stay in school and remember you can do whatever you set your mind to do, so if you want to be a model, you can do that and be better than me." I told her, peeping Dre getting closer to me.
"I love you Giovanni." The little girl said as we took our picture.
"Awweee I love you too." After we hugged, Lisa shut down the Meet and Greet, while I walked towards my office. Opening the door, I see Deondre dressed in an all gray sweatsuit with white Air Force Ones sitting on my loveseat scrolling through his phone. Sitting down at my desk, I turned on my computer mentally preparing myself to stay here for another two hours. "Thank you for the flowers."
"Anything for you." He said never looking from his phone.
"Your store ain't gonna burn down while you gone."
"Is that your way of telling me it's time to go."
"No, you can stay as long as you want."
"Wassup wit yo ex nigga?" He said putting his phone in his pocket.
