Today was the day.

The day that Sasha had to prove she was good enough to be one of the showgirls for Amber and Lilith, especially the older woman. Even though Sasha was well aware of Amber calling the shots, she was stuck on the fact that Lilith would take her time to know just random women looking for money. She seems like someone who was a woman of importance, who had other important matters to attend to but in reality, she had a say in this as well.

Currently, it was morning time, preferably nine in the morning, where Sasha remained in bed while having a bowl of oatmeal with a glass of water. You'll be surprised it was one of her favorite breakfast foods since eating it most of her life, not having the pleasure of enjoying the finer things in life.

Her mind was full of thoughts wondering how tonight was going to transpire with the other ladies looking for the same thing. Looking for a way to earn money to move on with life, enjoy life, and not have the struggle to take part in something many go through every day.

Of course, Sasha didn't think it was the right path but all she was doing was showing up to parties because she knew she was pretty. There were maybe going to be girls even prettier than her, she thought.

"Maybe..." She mutters under her breath, scrunching her nose from that thought. She sighs deeply before eating another spoonful of oatmeal.

Would everything go okay?

Could she qualify for tonight?

Would she trip her damn heels!

She was a nervous wreck and it was only nine in the morning.

Last night after getting off of work since she could not have a full self-care day for herself, Sasha took it upon herself to do as much as she could to look presentable. With the supplies she was able to afford, Sasha shaved her legs, exfoliated her body, shampooed, and deep conditioned her hair to the point where she felt satisfied. She was keen on waxing but when the time came, she'll book herself another appointment.

Frank could choke on a hot dog for all she cared.

There was a knock on the door startling Sasha but with a quiet reply, the door opens revealing Jennifer with a tired smile on her face.

"Up so early?" Sasha comments.

Jennifer laughs it off sitting on the edge of the bed, "Just saw your light on, thought you would be sleeping more since you went to bed so late."

"Yeah, I've been up since eight. I know I could get some more sleep but Amber wants me and the other girls at the apartment at eleven. She wants to pair what everyone is wearing tonight plus hair and makeup but I feel comfortable tending to my own hair, not to be mean but my hair texture is different from hers." She goes to touch her braided pigtails.
