Chapter 1:

STACEY

"Hurry up Ed!" I yelled, as I placed the burnt yet delicious bacon in my mouth, on any normal day, I'd have hit the road, but I overslept today. Somehow I dreaded waking up and leaving for work today.

"I am on my way!" my little sister replied from the room, I couldn't help but roll my eyes, she was a lot to handle.

"S!, I can't find my socks!" She announced a few minutes later.

" or you mean you forgot to wash it. " I heaved out a sigh, then i headed to the room where she stood in the middle, dressed in a beige pant and a white top .

"Um..., " I licked my always dry lips, " I will get you a new pair, let's just go or else we will miss the bus, "

Edna sighed, closed her eyes for a while then opened it, " sorry Sta, but you are right, I really just forgot to wash it, "

"I know, let's go then, "

With that said, I picked up my bag, packed up my 'hair' and we both headed out of our two bedroom house. The only possession of my Father that he didn't sell or gamble with.

As I locked the door, Ed intertwined her hand with mine, I inturn gave her a small smile. Just like any normal day in our lives, we walked towards the main roads in fast pace. as, except the littered road filled with broken glasses and half naked woman waiting for the next man to pass on their diseases to, there was also a huge risk of us getting mugged.

And I just couldn't take the risk, after all, there was a 50/50 percent chance of me being jobless in a few hours from now.

Once we were out of the old alley, we headed to the usual road we always stayed to wait for an uber driver.

i dropped Ed by the gate of her school, she was meant to be in first grade, however, she somehow was too smart to be in first grade, her school decided that she could fit in with the third graders and her school fee was completely free.

I couldn't thank God enough.

Sometimes I imagined how much it would Cost and the many night shifts I would work to be able to deal with paying two thousand dollars Of my debt every month, in addition to her school fee.

" bye Sta, " She kissed my cheek.

" have fun, " i whispered, waited till she enter the gates, then I hopped back into the Huber with my chest puffed and my face lit in a huge grin.

My next and final stop was my work place which was a few drives away from Edna's school, it was way easier this way because I could work and earn money while looking over my baby sister.

"It's right there, " I pointed to the messy back route driveway, I payed my fee and alighted from the taxi then I headed inside the restaurant.

Once in the dressing room,I changed into my short leather skirt and white shirt with a powdered face and lipstick so red It could be mistaken for blood. for a while there, I stared at myself in the mirror in contempt as I wondered what I was doing there and who I was doing it all it for,I mean I could just quit and forget about the God forsaken job where i was counted a hooker and harassed without laws.

however, when I remembered Edna, i concluded it was all worth it, i shook off my thoughts as unpleasant thoughts and memories began to cloud my head.

" You've got this," i muttered, then I headed over to the counter where Jeremy as usual was busy with his work in his black tux.

" Hey Jeremy, how's it going today?," i chirped.

The hot black guy turned to me, he paused, then he smirked," damn, you look hot as hell," I rolled my eyes, he had said it to me so many times that it didn't even fell like a complement anymore.
