Day Forty-Three...
~~*****~~
[ At K.D Cox Salon and Spa... ]
Dave drove Abigail and the rest to Kathleen's Salon and Spa. Kathleen was already waiting for them at the front door.
"Abi!!! You are finally here!" Kathleen pounced on Abigail, hugging her as if they had not seen each other for a century.
"Yes. You kept on texting me so I decided not to make you wait longer." Abigail giggled softly. She was glad to see Kathleen's enthusiasm.
When they broke the hug, Kathleen noticed Dave's presence. "Oh. Who is this handsome man with you?"
"Kath, this is Dave, my childhood best friend." Abigail introduced Dave to Kathleen. Then she shifted her gaze back to Dave. "This is Kathleen. I've already mentioned her to you."
Dave nodded his head, flashing a warm smile. Abigail met new friends and he was glad to meet them. He shook Kathleen's hand and greeted her politely.
"Let's go inside. My staff is already waiting for you." Kathleen didn't waste her time pulling Abigail inside. She guided her to the VIP room.Folloow current novÊls on nov/3lb((in).(co/m)
"What services are they going to do?" Abigail asked Kathleen. Everything inside was prepared including the staff.
"I will do your hair and makeup later. For now, you have to enjoy facials, body scrub, and massage, foot spa, waxing, manicure, and pedicure!" Kathleen declared to her.
Abigail's jaw dropped. She was overwhelmed by those services. 'Dejavu. I received the same services when I first visited this place. Stephen brought me here.'
"Do I have to do all those things?" Abigail asked Kathleen, scratching the back of her head. "Ana, Dave, and Santra might get bored while waiting for me." Abigail was reluctant to avail of those services.
But Kathleen insisted on it. "Yes. You have to. Don't worry about them. The three of them will also receive the same services. It will be my treat!"
'Who dares mess with me in my Salon and Spa?! I won't be forgiving. I am busy today!'
Kathleen marched out of the room with a grim expression on her face. Her secretary could only follow her behind.
A few seconds later, Kathleen arrived at the front door of Massage Room 404.
"Ma'am?" Her secretary called her out.
"Just go back and assist my important visitors. Make sure that they will avail our services." Kathleen urged her secretary to go back. She was referring to Dave, Ana, and Santra as her important visitors. She promised Abigail that her friends wouldn't feel bored while waiting for her.
"Okay, Ma'am. Just in case you need our security just give me your signal." The secretary smiled at her. She didn't want to meet the rude client. They said he was frightening when mad. She was confident that their Lady Boss could deal with him.
Upon dismissing her secretary, Kathleen took a deep breath, calming herself for a moment. She needed to act calm first in confronting this client. If a peaceful talk wouldn't work out then she would resort to a more aggressive way.
'Hmm. I forgot to ask her about this client's complaint. Anyway, I will just ask him myself if he is not satisfied with our service.'
Knock! Knock!
"This is me. Kathleen. The owner of this spa. May I come in?" Kathleen made her presence known. She thought the manager and the client were still arguing inside.
Kathleen was waiting for someone to speak up from the other side when suddenly the door was opened. Someone grabbed her hand, dragging her inside the room.
Bam!
The person who dragged her quickly closed the door behind them and pinned Kathleen to the door.
Kathleen was about to complain and lash out at the rude client when her eyes saw a familiar face.
"J-Jack?!"
