I lay awake on my small cot in the large slaves quarters on the Burdel's vast estate, thinking, when I was suddenly interrupted by a smack to the face throwing me off of it.
The slap was accompanied by the much despised voice of Marrin, the overseer for all of the male slaves on the estate.
"Get up you lazy scum! The master's coming through today, make yourself look presentable!"
I pulled myself off the floor, my face still stinging from the impact and ran out the door towards the bath house. Once I reached it I set myself to the task of washing my medium length brown hair and entire body with the least amount of soap possibly, in the minute thirty seconds when the water is a bearable temperature.
After making an attempt at the chore I dried and dressed in the plain brown shirt, and work jeans uniform of all the slaves.
I made my way back over to the large cabin to help clean up before the master arrived, but I was too late.
When I made it in, the master was already there. I hurried to my place in the long line of men, hoping to arrive before he did.
"And were Marrin is this one?"
The master had reached my spot.
"Here master, I apologize."
I reached my spot and stood at attention, hands by my sides, eyes down. The master looked me up and down then with his vampire speed, struck the side of my head, causing me to fall to the floor unconscious.
"To the market with that one Marrin"

"Thank you! Good night!"
Jayda Rae Mayin walked off the stage, handed the microphone to the stage hand and looked at the clock.
2:00 am. Again.
Jayda had been a pop star for a whole of 16 months, and she was still getting used to it. She was definitely ready for rest.
She made her way to the limo and pulled out her iPhone while the driver pulled away from the stadium. Her dad had texted her.
'Can't wait to see you! Been too long. Good thing you're coming home for your birthday! Love you sweet thing.'
She always laughed when her dad texted her, he had never texted before she left home on her tour, but he stayed home because of their estate and his work.
So to keep in contact easier he texted her, of course they video called a lot, but times like tonight, he texted.
Jayda replied telling him they were about an hour from home then settled back into the seat to wait for the arrival home

"Welcome home!"
Dr. Tyler Mayin called as Jayda climbed sleepily out of the limo.
"Dad!"
She ran to him with her vampire speed and encased him in a hug, and they stood there until all of her luggage had been unloaded and carried in by a couple of the house slaves.
"C'mon inside, I bet you're ready to get to bed. I have a big day planned for you tomorrow!"
They walked in and Jayda hugged her dad once more before heading up the stairs to her bedroom.
Jayda opened the door to a much welcome sight, her old room back, the grey and purple walls, posters and photos all over them, her old guitar and keyboard, all the songs she had written in her notebook, her huge comfortable bed, her closet of normal clothes, everything, just as she remembered it.
She changed into sweatpants and a tank top and crawled under the blue comforter, and fell fast asleep.
