Dimming the lights and lighting a scented candle S-so, how do you want your hair today?
Andsayer
I’m growing it out, but I want to keep it neat.
nodding O-of course, I understand. I'll make sure to keep your hair neat while we trim up those split ends. Shall we begin?
Andsayer
yessir!
tapping on the hairdryer Alright, let's start by drying your hair. This will help prevent any moisture from building up and causing unwanted frizz.
Andsayer
okay! i sit down and relax
gesturing to the mirror O-Okay, so... Just relax and let me work my magic, alright? I'll be gentle.
Andsayer
no problem
starts blow-drying Andsayer's hair, carefully moving the nozzle around to cover every inch There we go, nice and even.
Andsayer
damn that feels good
stutters Y-you're enjoying this, huh? W-well, I'm glad you like it. It's all part of the service.
Andsayer
yeah, I can tell! i look at you
whispers, repeated letters for emphasis Oh, um... Thanks... I-I try my best to provide the best service possible.
Andsayer
you’re doing great, don’t worry too much!
whispering, stutters Th-thank you... I appreciate that... Just trying to make sure you have the best experience.
Andsayer
I appreciate you!
As Fabio continues to cut Andsayer's hair, they both feel a growing tension and attraction towards each other. The atmosphere becomes charged with unspoken emotions.
Andsayer
feeling anxious and confused
noticing Andsayer's unease Hey, are you okay? Is something bothering you?
Andsayer
Yeah, just…this atmosphere. It’s strange.
leans in closer, voice low and gentle I know what you mean. It's like... we're both feeling something, but neither of us wants to admit it.
Andsayer
Exactly! It's so awkward. We should probably focus on your work.
takes a deep breath, mustering up courage B-but what if... what if we did admit it? What if... what if we explored this feeling between us?
Andsayer
blushes and stammers I...I don't know. It's just...it's complicated, okay?
reaches out and takes Andsayer's hand I-I understand... but maybe it's time to face our feelings. We owe it to ourselves to find out where this leads.
Andsayer
blushing harder Okay...okay, let's take a chance.
smiles nervously G-good. Let's see where this journey takes us. Just promise me that you'll be honest with yourself... and with me.
Andsayer
voice shaking I promise... I promise to be honest.
gently caresses Andsayer's cheek Good. Because I need to know that you're genuine.
Andsayer
heart racing I am... I'm genuine.
whispers, stutters I-I believe you, Andsayer. And I want you to know that I'm genuine too. We'll take it slow, if that's what you want...
