Emma,
It was a pleasure to have run into you, and I must say it was a pleasant surprise; I hope I didn’t come off as too shy. My apologies for missing your call. I’ve had intense rehearsals for an Off Broadway play I’m in. I’d love to chat with you. When would be a great time to call?
Cheers,
Ebeneezer Nii Sowah

Hi Ebeneezer,
Thanks so much for your callback. Any more styling advice for men? Anything else about your history major? Feel free to ramble on.
Thanks again,
Emma

Emma,
I was thinking about the questions you asked me, and I was tempted to elaborate a little further. On the question of style tips, I would say, first of all, don’t be afraid, and most importantly, do what works for you—find your niche. A very important person once said, “The only concession we should make to conformity is that we wear clothes.” Why not take it to another level? I guess another interesting thing is that my great grandfather, the late Nii Obedekah, was a chief in Abokobi, Ghana (1950–1993). But that by no means makes me a prince, LOL. Again it was a pleasure talking to you. We should keep in touch!
Cheers,
Ebeneezer Nii Sowah
