1 hour later
"Deja, where the hell are we?" I sighed as she pulled up to yet another store.
We'd been out for a whole hour and I'd already eaten. Now I just wanted to spend time with Dominic but here she was still not taking me back to the house.
"Just come on, Tiana." She said to me and I pouted, getting out of the car.
When we got out, I followed behind her, letting her leave me a bit because I was starting to feel tired. I mean, I'm 3 and a half months pregnant for god sake, I needed time to catch my breath.
And though I wasn't showing as much as I thought I would be, I got tired so fast these days.
"Come on, Tiana." She urged and I rolled my eyes.
"Okay. I'm coming." I told her as I picked up my pace and followed her into the store.
"A hair salon?" I asked, turning my lip up.
"Yup." She smiled as she told the lady what she wanted and I stood there, confused.
"And what can I do for you today?" The woman then asked me and I shook my head.
"No, thank you. I'm just here with her." I assured, considering I had no money right now. I didn't get paid until Friday and that paycheck was going straight to my bills anyway.
"Okay." She smiled, walking away from me as Deja sat in the chair and I sat in the waiting area.
I waited about five minutes before I heard the front door open.
"Baby." I heard Dominic call and I looked over to him.
"What are you doing here?" I asked him as he made his way over to me.
"Why you ain't getting your hair done?"
"Well I didn't plan to get my hair done today. I'm just here with Deja." I pointed as Deja sat there, getting her old braids taken out.
"Na' baby. That's whatchu here for." He said to me, walking over to lady and pointing to me.
"My girl need her hair done." He went onto tell her and I raised my eyebrows, a little shocked.
"Okay." The lady said with a smile.
"And what would you like today?" She asked and I looked over to him, trying to figure out how much money he was willing to spend.
"Um, I'm not sure." I looked at him, wanting him to give an answer for me.
Saying nothing, he dug into his pocket and pulled out a wad of money, wrapped in a rubber band.
"Get whatchu want, ma." He said, putting it into my hand and kissing my cheek.
"I'a see y'all later." He went onto say before he walked out of the salon completely.
"Okay..." I trailed off.
"I guess I'll be getting a sew in." I joked, making the lady laugh.
"How much are your bundles?" I went onto ask.
"Follow me."
