"Why did you
split up? It's not a good idea to have someone's name tattooed on your body.
Cos there are no guarantees in romance," Delilah observed, changing to the
colouring needle.
"That's what I
think now. She was just a girl I fell in love with at school. We were together
for nine years. I thought we'd last forever. We didn't," the customer,
Liam, replied.
"I'm sorry to
hear things never worked out. All those years..."
"I know. Just
memories now. I've moved on. Hence the cover up tattoo."
Del grunted a reply
and did the colouring.
Belinda Carlisle was
on the radio. She sang a sang of wanting the same thing and dream. A rockish
song, great at full volume yet quite touching. Oh no. I love this song. But it reminds me of Russ. Don't wanna get
upset. What if Chad suspects?
"That hurts a
bit. Is it a big needle?"
Delilah nodded. Oh yes, it bloody hurts. I can vouch for
that. There were tears in her eyes. She focused on the tattoo, not looking
up. The song on the radio changed to another Belinda Carlisle one, Live Your
Life Be Free. It was just about that.
