In A Tattoo Parlor

In A Tattoo Parlor

A Story by jackie

 

" Jade always wanted to get a tottoo, as she sit here at the bus stop staring at the parlor from across the street." "She sees people

coming out,that are tattooed beautifully with exotic flowers,and dragons that are pleasing to the eye." Her onlyreason for not getting a tattoo is that she is afraid of the tattoo gun."

 

 "She pulls out her purse case equipped with a mirror and she takes a gander at her self." What she sees is a young woman with exotic featires, olive toned skin, blue eyues and pale4 makeup with severe black eyeliner around the eyes, facial and tonque piercings, And oh,the hair is spiked and multi-colored. "She starts to grin liking what she sees its not her fault people don't understand

her punk rock fad."

"Too her, its her comfort zone away fron the goody toshoe family of hers"" Her fther thinks that Ishe's losing her mind, that she is on some kind of drugs." Her poor mother is just beside herself with grief and disbelief."

And oh, her older sister Jasmine,Well,let's just say she's stuck on herself." "Mrs. All-American girl.Boy!!!Are they going to freak out tomorrow when they see my tattoos i'm going to get." I'm going to chuck it up and go for it."

" Man, Life is truly good, especially from my viewpoint.

Very nicely written. I'm a poet, and I very seldom write stories or prose. I enjoyed reading this, the shock she knows she will give her family when they see her tattoo's. You capture her individuality well in this short story and the tension between family members on her 'exotic' looks. Nicely penned. Write on!
