Journey

Chapter Eight

"Hi darling , you're just in time" Cinnamon said
"Hi , so let's get to it" I said
She walked me to her practice pole and showed me a couple of moves I could get by with tonight.
I was wayyyyyy more flexible than I thought.

By the time we finished it was almost time for my first show. Cinnamon helped me dress , I wore an all gold strapless top with some gold tight shorts to match with some bright red heels. Oh how nervous I was but I had to do what I had to do.
I walked on the stage it was dark. I gave the man who plays the music my CD , and then he began to introduce me.
"We have a new little lady out here tonight give it up for ICE !!!!!!"
The spotlight was on me
It was time to work my magic
As the slow song played I climbed the pole, and worked my magic. The crowd was yelling , so many twenties and fifties and fives and tens . When the beat dropped I started to twerking and I fell into split .. The men loved it , I climbed the pole again and slid down upside down going in circles.
I could see Benny watching me from the entrance door , he had a smile on his face.

I was finally finished. I got my duffle bag and collected all the money. It was so much, I've never seen or had this much before. I got to the room and see Cinnamon counting money.
"Hey girl"she said in a playful way
"Hi, ms.cinnamon" I said
As she finished counting her money she asked did I need any help counting my money, I nodded yes.

While we were counting I asked her what was her real name she told me it was "Johneice".
"That's a pretty name" I confessed
"Thank you , ya know you remind me of me when I was younger, shy little pretty girl. What made you want to be a stripper" she asked curiously
"Just for the money" I exclaimed
It was almost time for my second show and I was done for the night.
As I got ready, I kept wondering why Cinnamon wanted to be a stripper , but I was scared to ask.

It's time for my show lets do this & I'd be headed back to Zariah's in no time.
