Money Power Respect! (URBAN)

CHAPTER 18

    Today was Friday. The day I have been waiting for my entire life. In less that 5 minutes the doors to Hands To Cherish, would be opening. I had my workers picked out and everything. "You ready babe" Tre said. I looked behind him at the long line of customers, mainly girls he had given flyers to. "As ready as I'll ever be daddy" I smiled.

      I had a big pair of scissors in my hands while Fallen and Ari had the children ones. "5...4...3..2" Everyone yelled out I took a deep breath and once I heard one we all cut the ribbon. Tre walked over and held the door open for us.

       I walked in looked up and silently thanked God. People were at every station some even showed up just to see what my shopped looked like while others made appointments. "She even got a little space to watch the kids while you get dolled up, Shit I need to start fucking Tre I bet he paid for all this Shit." one girl said.

         "Hating ass bitches" Meka said out loud. "Aye Meek keep calm that's what broke bitches do they come to watch us make money while they sit and talk shit" I spoke looking dead in they face. "And when a real bitch speak up hoes go on mute" I continued.

       "Trueeeee" a girl name Joyce said. She also worked for me. I had in total 8 workers. Meka who was the youngest. Dark skin, skinny, long weave, stood about 5'7. Joyce who was 26, also dark skin with long hair, thick, loud as hell about 5'5. Trina 23, light Brown, hair cut into a Bob, Debbie she was on the heavy side, stood around 4'11 but dressed her ass off, and last there was Jewel now jewel was a straight gay boy He was like a drag queen but a cute one.

          "I'm making money so I could careless what these broke bitches speaking on." I smirked. "IF IT AINT BOUT DA MONEY" Jewel yelled and flipped his 30 inch weave.

           Just than a girl walked in, she was almost as bad as me. Tre walked in from my office and froze dead in his tracks. "Who this bitch that got big bruh all froze in his tracks." Meka said. "That's what I wanna know" I spoke up. "Hey Tre now you know I been gone but now I'm back so tell ya bitch play time is up" She said with much confidence, as she blew him a kiss and walked out.

      No lie that was some boss Shit. And If the bitch wouldn't of left so fast I woulda had a slick remark. Tre ain't say not one word yet. "Well damn fuck is you tongue tied?" I questioned. "Damn" was all he whispered.

          SLAP

        "Yo what the fuck you just slap me for" Tre yelled. "Cause you in a fucking daze like God himself just walked through this bitch." I said. He Just Looked at me took the girls and left. As I began to do my first client hair.

      I don't know what that was about I do know Tre better handle that shit and that's bottom line. I continued to do head after head. "What you want for lunch?" Tre asked. "Oh shit it talks, I'll get myself lunch." I responded. He kissed his teeth "Whatever yo, Girls lets go on a date" He yelled. I seen bitches start to get up. "Not Yall,  I'm talking to my daughter's." Tre spoke as he grabbed the girls hands and walked out.

       "That's a good man right there Cherish" and elder lady spoke up. "Yeah he is" I agreed. "So anyway Yall heard about the Shit that went down over on south street" Jewel spoke. And from that we talked and did hair until it was time to go.

      I cleaned my station and walked into my office. I closed the door behind me then went and sat down and began to count my money. Meka was the first to come in and give me her money. "Make sure you in school on time monday,  I will be calling to make sure to. Soon as you slip up ima cut Ya days, Meek real shit"  I  told her. "Cher I know I just gotta get this money so I can have shit for school." She said. "I'll take you school shopping tomorrow no worries I told you I got you, just make sure you graduate the money you make her save it." I told her honestly. As I handed her back 50 dollars. "Nah Cher you do enough for me the least I can do is pay for my chair." she said not accepting the money back. I nodded. "Go Head home and be safe" I told her.
