Maybe my first post was a bit too hoodish. Try this one on for size.
Vincent Chambers walked into the Artesia Nail Salon and smiled. The shop wasn’t too far from his apartment off of Duke Street in Alexandria, Virginia. It was his first time in the shop since his ex-girlfriend Donica drug him in there six months ago. She was getting her nails and feet done and wanted his company. Vincent could think of other things he’d rather be doing besides watching Danica get her nails done but he played the role and hung out.
He was bored stiff that day and vowed never to come back but today, he was here and excited. He was trying to move on from Danica and he wasn’t doing too well. It was a bad break-up and came from nowhere. She told him that he didn’t appreciate her enough and didn’t take care of her so she left. Vincent thought he was a good boyfriend and didn’t understand why she never voiced her concerns to him. But it didn’t matter. She left and wasn’t coming back. No amount of pleading and saying he would change would help.
