some serious cosmetic skill, and Gia found herself considering becoming friends with her.  She was definitely interesting and easy to talk to, and maybe Gia just needed something to refresh her daily routine.  With a cigarette balancing between her index and middle fingers, she wondered if she’d bump into her again soon.

 

~ ~ ~

 

4 appointments turned into that along with 3 walk-ins and a woman needing her gel manicure fixed from a prior session with another nail technician.  Gia was exceptionally busy that day, but the work distracted her from any low feelings.  She even felt happy to do everything, something she hadn’t in a long time.  Laurel, the receptionist, noticed this too.

“Hey, you’re doing really well today,” she mentioned, as Gia went behind the desk.  Gia looked up at her, then back down to cross out the 4:00 appointment on the clipboard.

“Thanks, Laurel.  I’m feeling pretty good today.”  The receptionist took some cash from a customer and put it in the register.

“That’s good,”  she dug out some change and smiled at the customer as she handed it to him, “So uh, how’s the love life going?”  A shrug.

“It’s going I guess.  Not really seeing anyone but not not interested in seeing someone.  I mean if that makes sense.”  Laurel chuckled softly.

“No I get it.  But I’m sure you won’t have trouble finding a new boyfriend.”  Gia acknowledged her statement with a laugh through her nose, then greeted one of her regular clients that just walked in.  Laurel was always so sweet, and she was the first friend Gia made when she first started working at that salon.  She remains the only one to treat her with genuine kindness rather than professional cordialness.  Walking back to her station, Gia’s mind was suddenly cluttered with the events of that morning.  Specifically seeing Steph at the coffee shop.  Prior to that, she was bitter and felt nothingness from the empty sex she’d had.  Somehow that brief, 30 second conversation impacted her attitude for the rest of the day, seemingly making her shift back to that content state of mind where she didn’t have to worry about anything or at the same time get excited about something.  Although she did feel a little different upon seeing Steph.  Suddenly Gia was contemplating friendships and considering making an attempt to change up her life?  Who was this girl, anyway? 

“So what are you thinking?  We just got a bunch of new colors in for the season…”
