7 pm was coming faster than I had originally anticipated. I was currently putting on the outfit Hancock had given me. I wasn't a very big fan of flashy and...Vulgar clothing like Nami and Robin were. Their mature tastes were...not my style.

I preferred a suit. Though this suit was provided for my exact measurements it also came with an identity concealing mask to prevent any of the workers from being followed home. It was a good idea that one of Hancock's sisters came up with. The Regulars of the Amazon Lily would never truly know who they were looking at unless the mask was taken off.

I stepped in front of the mirror, placing the mask on my face. All together the outfit looked really nice... I hummed, appreciating Hancock's accommodations. I stepped out of my room, grabbing my back, checking the time. I had about 45 minutes to get to the Amazon Lily. I shouted a quick goodbye to whoever was home before getting into my truck.

Amazon Lily had several Locations that served as Either Cafe, bars, Strip Clubs, Etc. All of them generally had the same name. Of course, all of these Buildings made Hancock a ton of money. As well as her Beauty and Modeling career.

My truck roared to life, I began the drive to the club with my phone plugged into the aux cord. There was no way I was listening to the radio after a 20-hour drive listening to practically the same song over and over again. That trip had truly scarred me for life. I could see the City finally approaching my truck. I could practically feel the tingle in my fingers.

It wasn't a pleasant urge but it was one I could tame. I kept my distance from the bad streets, taking a long way just in case. I saw the strip club, pulling into the employee parking lot just behind the building. Once my truck was parked I turned it off. Taking a deep breath to calm my nerves. I stepped out of my truck, the mask on my face.

I locked the truck, stepping inside I was immediately bombarded by hugs from all of the girls who'd be working the stage.

"Y///NN We missed you!!" They all shouted

"H-hi? Missed you guys too!" I giggled, returning as many hugs as I could.

Once all the talking was done I hurried to the bar area. Setting it up with the other bartenders. There was only one other bartender, and I never really talked to the guy. He had worked there almost about the same time as me. Though probably longer.

The sun was starting to set, Men and women alike began to enter. Some look guilty and ashamed. Others did not truly care why they were in there. Then there was the occasional group looking to cause trouble. I mixed drinks faster than the other guy with me.

It even got to the point where he started serving them down the line instead of making them. He laughed though, finding the break from the work enjoyable. I had missed mixing drinks so much. It made me feel like I had some semblance of control again.

A few Drunk guys had started rambling about how shitty their home life was. A few teens popped in without us noticing but oh well. I few of them I felt bad for. Their mom seemed like a total nut case. I ended up slipping them a helpline number. They were shocked to find out I knew they were underaged.
