"Yeah. For th' hair. I made it. Lots of stuff in it. Hair masque. Coconut oils n such. You'll get hair shiner then an armadillo shell." Just a random saying he heard one day. He turns and smiles at her. "I'm Ryker."

"Maybe you might be right. I ain't got a lotta friends. Nothin' I done did. Jus' not th' hangin round type. Always workin n stuff." He smiles. "I'll put ya on my products. One is my special recipe. Ain't mind sharin."

"Yeah. I like french pigtail braids usually. They make my hair all wavy and beautiful." He leans back into the misting. "Not many people wanna play with my hair. This is a happy surprise. I love my hair. I take good care of it."

Eyes flutter closed. This reminds him of home. He simply exists in the moment while she braided his hair. "Thank you. I appreciate it. I wanted to have some waves tomorrow."

"Iced tea, if ya have it. I ain't a big soda person but I ain't th' biggest enemy of it." He doesn't mind the hands and continues to walk with her guidance and listens to her. "Good. Ain't wanna leave yet anyhow."

"Yeah. I mean. Yes. C'n I stay? Not to watch. I ain't a creep. I mean cause what am I gonna do for one hour? Guess I could walk around or somethin but then I may lose track of time and such. Up to you. I ain't gonna argue with whatever ya decide. Just lemme know."

"I mean, I ain't complainin. O'course I like it and all." The question just further indicated he was more embarrassed by the flush generating across his cheekbones. "I'd be a fool if I said no. So I ain't gonna say no. Gimme all that ya got and then some more."

she leans in, a playful smile spread across her lips. a brief caress to their cheek. “did you want more?”

"I am a real sweetheart. Ya get used ta me. Th' spicy side comes out later." He playfully winks. "I ain't got no pets yet but I would love t' get some. I look after th' ones that hang outside of th' club and feed em n such. Someone's got t'. They ain't got a home."

“they indeed can be little brats, mine gets clingy and wants attention all the time.” he laughed. “do you have one as well?”

"Yes. Definitely somethin I have always wanted t' do." He blinks and laughs a bit. "Ya. I guess so. Are ya rich?" He tilts his head out if curiosity. "I mean I ain't gonna treat ya any different if ya are."

"Learnin' to fight will help me hold onto my own. It's important to me that I can take care of myself. Ain't nobody here to do it for me. I always knew I'd make somethin' of myself, but I wasn't sure where or what it would be. Yall take care of me."

He nods. "It wouldn't mean nothin if it was just handed to me n such. I'd be just like them rich folks with the sticks up their asses." He chuckled. Shaming them didn't make him any better, but it made him feel less spoiled, that's for damn sure.
