Chapter 2 Meeting Maxine
Me and Daddy drove in the car a real long time. It was not that enjoyable.
"Are we there yet? How come we're not there? Are we lost? Huh, Daddy?Did you lose us?" I asked. Just then, Daddy pulled into a parking lot.
"Hey! We're there! We're there!" I hollered very thrilled.
I looked through the window.
"Yeah, only here's the problem. I don't even recognize this place.'Cause this is not your regular barber shop." Daddy got me out of my seat belt.
"This is a different barber shop," he explained."Someone at work recommended it. Only it's not actually a barber shop.It's more of what you'd call ... well, okay ... it's a beauty shop."
My eyes got big and wide at that guy.
"A beauty shop? Oh boy! 'Cause I love beauty shops even more than barber shops!"
I jumped up and down and all around.
"Hey, Everybody! My daddy is going to a beauty shop!My daddy is going to a beauty shop!"
"Shh, Junie B.! Please!" said Daddy."You have to be on your best behavior in this place.I mean it. No acting crazy." I smoothed my jacket very proper.
"Yeah, only I don't even know what you're talking about," I said."I never acted crazy in my whole entire career."After that, I skipped very happy through the beauty shop door.
There was a lady behind a counter. Her face had big, shiny red lips on it.
"Name, please?" she said. "Robert Jones," said Daddy. I stood on my tippy toes.
"Yeah, only he has other names, too," I told her."'Cause some people call him Bob. And some people call him Bobby.Plus today my mother called him Ace." The lady looked over the counter at me.
"And what is your name?" she asked.
I quick took off my jacket and showed her my name tag.
"Pinkie!" I said. "My name is Pinkie Gladys Gutzman!'Cause I just thought of that cute name this morning! And it is adorable, I think!"
