Another day...

I sighed, once I was bathed and bandaged up I quickly tip-toed to Riley's room. If I'm not there by 11 he'll break even more bones. I opened the door creaking, I winced at the sound as I saw Riley's body stir. I watched tentatively, scared of what might happen next. Please don't wake up, please please please, I sighed in relief when I heard his light snoring again. Tomorrow is another day, I laid down slowly pulling the covers over me. Another horrible day...

I woke up by my stupid alarm. It was 1 a.m and my shift was about to start, I quickly got dressed, I looked at the bed. I guess Riley had another delivery, like on most nights/mornings. 5 hour sleep is usually what I get, at 1 a.m to 8 a.m I'm in the streets. At 9 a.m to 9 p.m I do deliveries Riley assigns me to, sometimes a client wants me over to stay at their house for a few hours too. I sighed caking on my make up, I better hurry or I'll be late. I don't think I can handle another beating tonight. I can barely walk now. Especially with these tight stupid heels.

Yet another car pulled up by the alley, I sighed. I put my fake smile, the car window rolled down and I walked towards it trying hard not to limp. I wish my ankle would stop hurting already! "Anything you want baby?" I said leaning against the car, the car wasn't all that good, it was basic- ordinary. As for the man... I looked up. The man wasn't so good looking, the man had brown hair with bald spots and wasn't much on the skinny side either, he had beefy hands and a ring on his left finger that looked like it was about to pop from how tight it is. "Just you" he said, I smiled opening the car, trying hard not to gag "then lets go".

I pulled my hair up running under a tree, at least attempting to run. Great time for rain, I sagged my shoulders counting the money. 200. I quickly put my money in my bra along with the rest. New York is starting to get cold and I didnt even grab a jacket. We, cold and dark, perfect! I looked at the time on my stupid flip phone, 3 a.m. I better start walking to my spot or I wont be getting money.
I started to walk to my spot, not the first time I walked in the rain on a night like this. I felt breeze whip my legs. I shivered as I felt all the rain droplets hit my face. Cold as ice, winter is just around the corner, damn it the least he could do is check on me. I could've been dead right now if I hadn't known my way around these mucky old streets, especially with these hobos and dangerous men lurking around. Holy crap its cold, I looked at the time passing through an alley. Great 30 minutes have already passed, thats a couple of 200 dollars gone. I saw bright lights come to my view, crap. "Hey baby girl, needa ride?" I looked back at a dark car, not really knowing the actual color because of the streetlights being too dim as always. "Uh-um no thank you I'm fine!" I ducked my head walking away, please go away, I'm not supposed to talk to anyone out of my spot. I should've let that old fat man drop me off at my spot but I couldn't stand the way he smelt like moldy ham. Just by thinking about it made me gag.
