David soaked the words from his boss in his brain for a short while before taking his phone to make a call to his barber, "Yo~ Get your ass ready for the best customer your shitty shop will ever welcome." David said before frowning once he heard the reply then added in a much more serious tone of voice : "What do you mean you don't open for business before noon? Believe me when I say I'll break both of your legs for real if I don't find your doors open for my boss when we arrive ten minutes or so ter! Don't bme me if one of his bodyguards shoot your toes if you dare say anything disrespectful." Afterwards he simply ended the call and tossed his phone aside while clicking his tongue.
Bryan opened one eye then closed it back once David looked in the rear mirror as if saying : "It's alright boss, I'll make it happen... no worries."
Jessica was amused by how this David and her employer were having such an enviable understanding between them, Kyle on the other hand didn't seem like he's trusting the David's decision but he said nothing because looking somewhere else for better service is always going to be an option avaible for them if the current destination isn't the right one.
Bryan on the other hand just enjoyed the rexing ride while pnning the next steps to take in the following days but what annoyed him the most is that having a couple years to make every preparation possible doesn't seem like it's enough no matter how deep he thought about it.
"We're here boss." David said then got out of the car after parking it and ran towards the hairstylist shop then practically kicked the door open!
Kyle opened the door for Bryan while scanning the streets with his eyes while Jessica was checking almost every window and roof of the surrounding buildings but the three of them could hear, "You motherfucker! I've been taking care of you ever since you were a child and you dare give me this attitude? You better not embarrass me in front of my boss or every stray cat and street dog from all seventeen neighborhoods would be taking liquid shits on your doorstep once I'm done with your dumbass."
"Alright! I never said that I'm not going to welcome your boss, you just called me out of nowhere and woke me up from my sleep David." That timid reply Kyle heard once he got inside first to scan the shop before his employer while Jessica stood back to back with Bryan on the doorstep and waited until Kyle gives them the green light.
Bryan found these actions completely unnecessary but whatever makes his bodyguards at ease is fine with him.
*Snort*
David gred at the young man before pointing a finger in his face, "I don't care if you're being embraced by a goddess or a succubus! When my boss is asking for you to work your magic you better come running as fast as you can or so help me god I'll whoop you so bad you'll quack if the boss asks you to quack."
"I get it already! Damn it you're making me nervous with all that violent energy man, how am I supposed to work while you're stressing me so much?" The young man was so intimidated at the moment he didn't even dare look David in the eye but he warily watched while Kyle checked every corner of his shop and left no blind spots at all.
*Humph*
David let go of the barber after harrumphing then patted him on the shoulder to calm him before saying : "Listen here Robert. There's rich people and there's powerful rich people... I believe I don't need to expin what you're dealing with here." David gave this old friend of his another stern look before walking towards Bryan and Jessica who were entering after Kyle gave her the clear signal then smiled like the previous episode of him acting like a thug didn't happen at all while saying : "Boss this is Robert, he's going to take good care of you. I'll go watch the car."
Bryan simply nodded before looking at this Robert who's clearly still shaken after David roughed him up, "Sorry about that Robert, I would've stopped David from being such a brute had I known that this wasn't a good timing for me to pay a visit." He said while smiling such a disarming smile.
'Liar!' Jessica thought while acting like she's enjoying looking around at the interior of the shop.
Robert on the other hand felt like crying because David was being so extreme indeed but once he received an apology from this polite customer Robert finally calmed and his brain started to process the data his eyes are gathering, a very nice car and two bodyguards protecting this customer means a very special VIP has nded in his shop indeed.
Not to mention that the one who can bully Robert whenever he feel like it is being so humble towards this young man and is actually clearly satisfied with being his driver!
"N-not at all, it's my pleasure for you to visit my shop sir..."
"Bryan. Just call me Bryan, we look like we're the same age after all so there's no need to be pretentious towards me... just act like you're dealing with one of your regurs." Bryan said.
Robert flinched before shaking his head, "I wouldn't dare," Then immediately afterwards gestured with his hand towards the best chair in his shop, "Please have a seat B-Bryan." He couldn't help but stutter a bit at the end while stealing a gnce towards the two bodyguards before releasing a sigh of relief once he noticed that both of their bnk expressions didn't change at all after hearing him call their boss directly by his name.
The other thing Robert noticed that once Bryan sat down on the chair the woman actually turned to face the street while blocking Bryan with her body at the perfect angle if someone is actually willing to do anything to harm him from outside, the man stood next to her while facing Bryan and both of them were perfectly keeping him shielded with their bodies however... one of them was watching the street while the other one was actually watching Robert himself!
'Fuck! Is that man going to actually shoot me if I cut Bryan? How am I supposed while being watched by him all the time? This pressure is so suffocating! God damn it David... What have you got me into.' Robert thought while standing close to the mirror and looking down at the open drawer and stared at a loss... maybe for the first time in his life ever Robert wasn't so sure which of his tools to use first.
"I already had a shower earlier, do I still need to wash my hair?"
Bryan's question interrupted Robert's train of chaotic thoughts and he looked up at the reflection on the mirror, there he saw a smiling face which helped a lot in calming Robert down.
"N-no... We're good to go right now, do you have any specific style in mind?" Robert asked while taking a scissor and a narrow comb from the drawer then went to do the simplest task of straightening a few locks of Bryan's hair which strayed from the path of his original look.
Bryan gestured towards Kyle, "Don't ask me, ask him... I know nothing at all about where to go from here."
"Bryan is about to have a meeting where we're looking to have him presented in an official, professional, and dignified manner but ter in the day he's having dinner which is why we're also looking to have him presented in an approachable, distinguished, and honorable manner which is why I recommend for you bance between the two while refraining from cutting anything from the top once you even the length of these locks." Kyle said.
Robert nodded while thinking : 'No wonder he knows a lot about hairstyles, his is almost perfect.' Then started to busy himself with the first steps of this important project.
Bryan sat there and watched while noticing how Robert's slow and measured movements in the beginning gradually started to become a lot more natural and fluid once he rexed.
From time to time Bryan would ask him, Jessica, or Kyle all sorts of random questions just to keep the conversation flowing or say all sorts of stuff just for the sake of having fun while spending his time in Robert's shop.
Robert on the other hand seemed rexed but he was actually feeling thankful that he didn't use any of his hair clippers on Bryan after noticing how straining it is to actually trim it!
Often times his scissors would require an extra hard squeeze just to cut the ends of that extremely resilient to the degree of being weird hair which despite being soft and normal on the touch of his fingers is actually a lot like fine coils of steel wire.
Robert of course would never dare voice these thoughts which is why he endured in silence until the project was completed thanks to his own expertise in the profession plus Kyle and Jessica's advice from the side.
The hair look Bryan had getting out from the shop was completely different compared to the one he had getting in, it wasn't anything extravagantly exaggerated or anything like that but when coupled with Bryan's sharply handsome face and perfectly fit and muscur body which felt like it was sculpted by the gods... he did more than attracting looks from the females towards him once he left the shop.
Bryan drew the envious and hateful eyes from the males until he got in the S-Css once Jessica opened the door for him.
