Family

Four Days Later...

It's safe to say that Farah and her family are finally at peace. It all feels too good to be real to them, but it's most definitely happened. For starters, they found out who was behind the unknown number. It was a girl that Farah fired a few months back. The girl had been caught stealing hair products first and she was warned. Farah drew the line, however, when she began stealing from the register.

The girl, Casandra, was someone Farah confided in whenever she needed reassurance about something. This was all before the incidents occurred. She had shared some of her deepest secrets with this woman, being that they were friends for years. But like everyone else, Casandra grew jealous. She's history now.

As for Bianca, Clarence, Omar, Trisha and Idah, they were all serving some serious time. Bianca and Clarence violated their restraining order on many occasions, and they were put away after Treyton got some very powerful people involved. Trisha and Idah were arrested again recently when they tried to snatch someone's child off the playground. Omar was involved with something dealing with drugs, and he's put away for a very long time.

Farah had just pulled up to one of her hair salons. This one was closer to their home, and she had another one closer to Cicely's home.

Walking up to the shop, she peeked in through the window and saw everyone doing what they were supposed to. She walked in and was immediately greeted by he entire shop; customers and all.

Her second most trusted worker, Dianna, came to let her know what was up.

"Hey, mamas. How you doing?"

"I'm okay. I felt like I haven't came to see y'all in forever. You been holding it down for me?"

"You already know. But you do need to talk to those new workers. They be in and out of here with those fast ass little boys like it ain't nothing, girl."

"I'll be sure to address it at the meeting tomorrow. Everything else been running smoothly?"

"Yep! We just got a new shipment of hair, lotion, and the masks. We just waiting for you to confirm the new orders. The trucks are set to come in as soon as you do."

"Okay. I'll confirm them right now. I'll be back in a few."

"Okay."

Farah went off to her office while Dianna went back to the front. When Farah got situated, she checked some emails and confirmed all of the new orders. While she was in the middle of that, she heard a knock at her door.

"Come in!"

I'm walked Cheyenne, one of the younger girls Farah decided to give a chance. She wasn't bad at her job at all; she could braid her ass off. It was just the simple fact that she was too young minded to understand the consequences of some of her actions.

Cheyenne walked in and invited herself to sit. She was also the more cocky worker there. She believed that she was too dog and everybody else, including the owner, were under her.

"Well okay. What do you need?"

"I need more hours."
