“Yes, I think kids are the most honest and funny people. They don’t care about being PC and they definitely don’t care about sparing your feelings. They tell it like it is!” I chuckled.
“So true,” Lyrica laughed too. “What about you, Robin?”
“I am a nurse practitioner,” Robin answered.
“Nice,” Lyrica said. “I thought I wanted to be a nurse until I figured out that I have a weak stomach and can’t stand the sight of blood.”
“That pretty much disqualifies you!” Robin chuckled. “We see a lot of gross stuff, depending on where you work.”
“I couldn’t even imagine,” Lyrica shuttered. “What do you do, Cam?”
“I am a hair stylist,” Cam replied.
“Did you do their hair?” Lyrica asked pointing to Robin and me.
“I am their stylist, but I was only able to get to Robin today. Keeva did this herself and it looks good,” Cam finished.
“It does. It’s so healthy,” Lyrica complemented.
“Thank you,” I smiled.
“And Robin’s hair, I don’t want to presume to know…”
“It’s a custom unit,” Cam interjected.
“I was going to ask if it was a sew-in or a unit, but I didn’t want to sound offensive like your hair can’t grow out of your head like that,” Lyrica said.
“Girl,” Robin waved her off. “It’s fine. We black. We know how we roll.”
“It’s beautiful as well,” Lyrica complemented.
“Thank you,” Robin smiled.
Someone knocked on the door.
“Babe, can you get that? We have guests, everyone was told to stay clear,” Lyrica said speaking to Obasi.
He opened the door but blocked the sight of the person on the other side.
“I can’t find the wig glue,” the female voice on the other side said.
“Excuse me for a second, ladies,” Lyrica said and went to the door.
“Out of all the beauty supplies in this city, you mean to tell me that you couldn’t find it anywhere?” Lyrica asked the person.
“I looked, Lyr…”
“Excuse me,” Cam said. “Exactly what kind of glue are you looking for?”
“J. Benita’s?” Lyrica started. “There was enough to get the cap down, but there wasn’t enough for the wig. We used another brand before I had the baby, but after the baby, I somehow developed an allergy to it and J. Benita’s is the only one that works now,” Lyrica explained.
“So you need glue for your unit?” Cam asked.
“Yes,” both Lyrica and the unseen female voice said.
“I have a needle and thread in the trunk of my car. I can install that unit without glue,” Cam said.
“It won’t fly off when I start dancing?” Lyrica asked.
