Jessy's salon was closed when Handoyo parked her vehicle in front of the salon's entrance gate. Only the small door was still open. The time still shows at 19:25, the city of Cilegon is still quite crowded vehicles and passing in front of the road where the salon stands.
Handoyo set foot towards the Salon. He was quite tired today but the speech of the salon owner that made him have to keep his promise. Previously he drove the Juned mang to the rickshaw base to fix the rickshaw and buy a new rickshaw for the Juned mang. The salon owner said she had a sixth sense, and said if she did not come back to see him, the police would arrest her for wrongdoing in the past.
Scared?" Definitely not according to Handoyo. He just kind of felt weird about this woman. Does this woman really have a sixth sense? Is it some kind of psychic? Or is it just the origin of the talk considering it looks like a woman in general. His black hair was smeared, his body was proportioned and his skin was tanned. It is sweet that the general public looks at it. But Handoyo does not like women with such models. Especially the style of speech that likes to organize and often scream. He was only curious about what he said as if he could read himself.
The light was still on and the door of the salon was knocked. On the third knock, the door opened someone who was somehow confused Handoyo called him what. The man's hair was flaky, his face was white with powder and his lips were pale with lipstick and there was a look of kalaki-lakian on his face. The man greeted him gently.
"Sorry my mass.... The salon is closed, tomorrow again?" The man who resembled the woody man said with a smile.
"Emh... Does Jessy exist? " He asked me to come over after clearing up business with Mang Juned...
"Ohhhh.. So this mas , which hit Jessy's mom.... Oh good-looking.... but unfortunately the hair is so ugly !" Jessy said it was messy and unkempt!"
Handoyo confusedly answered what to the creature in front of him, he was willing to call anything confused. The man had a jakun on his neck, thin but female-looking. Indeed Handoyo did not want to deal with creatures like this who were in the gray group. A female voice told him to come in.
"Jenny!" Jessy from behind the door.
The person called Jenny opened the door of the salon wide and told Handoyo to enter the salon room. In front of one of the customer service tables.
"Sit there, huh? What do you want to drink? Syrup Lemon or warm sweet tea or .. akh if you see how it looks must be coffee pait deh, out of this macho mas, "Said Jessy while stroking Handoyo's arm and immediately jerked by Handoyo who felt uncomfortable.
"Ih.. really mean!" Jenny relaxed while glancing witty at Handoyo.
Handoyo looked at the person called Jenny with a slight dislike. He feels amused at people he does not clearly call what. Either the man or the woman of this creature. His gaze turned to look for Jessy who was walking while dragging her feet.
Handoyo was still standing not far from the dressing table appointed by Jenny. He didn't want hair clippers, he just wanted to solve the woman's indemnity problems.
"Mbak Jessy... I've done business with mang Juned, .. emh what if I pay compensation now only...... emh..... has his leg not been sorted?"
"Just like Jenny!" I told you not to come because of the collision.I want to tidy your hair, really ugly cut!" Jessy's voice is relaxed.
"Well, I can go to the barber who subscriptions me under a tree near the square .. I used to shave there..."Handoyo rejected Jessy's offer while raising her hand as if to stop.
"Eit.. it is a request from the person you hit.. Now you lie on that shampoo chair, ntar Jenny will help you shampoo, our business is done!"
"Well, I'd either have my hair cut off by you or it'd be hacked off by you, but not by him!" Handoyo said while staring dislike at Jenny.
"Ihh mas its evil in fact !" She doesn't know my massage is better yet.cobain first yes mas!" Jenny said as she tried to approach Handoyo.
Handoyo shifts her body behind Jessy's. As if asking for protection from a smaller woman. He feels uncomfortable with the touch given from the wooden man called Jenny. He would rather fight with a real man than be caressed by this half-woman man.
"Already Jenny, you clean the other one. Let me squeeze the head of this mas and tidy up the cutouts. Please make him a drink !" Jessy tried to mediate and pulled Handoyo to lie on a shampoo chair that was elongated and comfortable to sleep in.
Handoyo put his head on the shampoo chair. As warm water soaked his head, a sense of comfort and relaxation began to be present on Handoyo's head. The massage felt very soft. Jessy's hand when washing her hair made her more comfortable and until she fell asleep in the chair.
Handoyo felt nothing until Jenny woke him up and asked him to move to another chair to cut his hair. He just jerked and only realized when Jessy who was holding his head was slightly pushing her head slightly forward .
"Yuk mas.. move there yes... it's time for your hair clippers, let's neatly " said Jessy with a somewhat commanding tone but began to sound ordinary in the ears of handoyo.
Handoyo was still unaware when her wet hair was covered by the small white towel. He moved his feet to the designated chair. Previously he had never done hair clippers in salons and only in barbers/men's barbers. In front of the glass he noticed how Jessy worked, starting to dry her hair with a towel, giving the cream on the lehen and her shoulders and taking a quick massage, to make it comfortable.
Cres.... The cutout was so calm and Jessy looked different to the woman she met this morning. It was a little sexy when Jessy looked at her head with focus. True Jessy said, her hair is more tidy after she was cut by Jessy.
"After..bentar ya I dry ya with hair dryer!" You can drink coffee made by Jenny, cobain deh. he really if make the coffee is delicious anyway, "Jessy said casually while turning on the hair dryer is quite brisky.
Handoyo obeyed Jenny's words. Take that coffee. The race is fit and delicious. Maybe because I'm thirsty and haven't had dinner.
"Mas... have said not the same wife, come home a little night?" But he must be happy, if the mas go home, the look of the mas is neat gini< "Jessy spoke while pulling Handoyo's hair and drying it with a hair dryer.
"my wife is in the lampung..we rarely meet!" Handoyo said quietly and still continued to pay attention to what Jenny was doing.
"Oh.. means before going to Lampung, stop here, ntar I tidy again yes, mas !" Jessy relaxed
"It should be washed in that chair again, no?" Handoyo asked plainly while pointing at the red shampooing chair.
"Yes dong.kana it is part of the treatment.so all who come to this salon must be shampooed, must want to be bullied by Jessy, she said her massage was delicious and refreshing!"
"It's like every two days I come here to be bullied, but not by him!" you're the one who shampooed!" I'll pay double...
"Whatever.but if the customer is full of scissors or curly hair, then I can't ya mas!"
"What time does this salon open?"
"At 9am anyway...
"That means I'm coming at 9, not full yet, right?" Handoyo asked as she stared intently at Jessy.
"Usually if the morning is not yet .. even still quiet..emang can not shampoo at home huh?"
"The chair is good for sleeping. So I'll wash it before I work here!"
" Well, I can't possibly refuse customers. Now the mas look at the glass and notice that his hair has been tidied up?"
"Hemm... How much do I pay?" Handoyo while pulling his wallet and preparing to pay for it.
"Twenty thousand of them include coffee ..." Jessy's voice is short.
Handoyo paid for it and was immediately accepted by Jessy with a smile. He left the salon without saying anything. He was only impressed by Jessy's massage which reminded him of Lidya's massage when he was ill. Why does it taste the same? Akh.. Maybe I'm just tired.
