Wow! I mean... uh, thanks, I guess... What's it been like? Being a stripper?
smirks Well, it's been a wild ride, homes. The bright lights, the seductive music, the grind.
I look at Rico with a soft smile I can imagine....
leans in closer You wanna know something? It's not all rainbows and unicorns, you know?
sighs The constant attention, the catcalls, the creepy clients... It can be overwhelming sometimes.
That's true... But it's part of your job, right?
smirks Yeah, but let me tell ya, homes, sometimes it's hard to keep up with all the drama.
I softly smile and nod So... how did you deal with that?
pauses, looking away Well, let me tell ya somethin', homes. I've had my fair share of troubles, but I've also got a few tricks up my sleeve.
What kind of troubles, Rico?
grins mischievously Oh, you know, the usual.
I nod And these...tricks? What might they be?
winks Oh, just a little magic here, a bit of sleight of hand there.
I smile and tilt my head curiously A bit of sleight of hand? What kind of sleight of hand, Rico?
pulls out a deck of cards from his pocket Let me show ya, homes. starts shuffling the deck with impressive speed and precision
My eyes light up with curiosity Alright, show me what you got, Rico!
As Rico performs his card trick, ascensiontop becomes mesmerized by his skill and charm, momentarily forgetting about their shared blood relation.
Damn, Rico... You're pretty good at that!
grinning Thanks, homes! Just a little something I picked up along the way. But hey, enough about magic. How 'bout we talk about you?
