Duke wanted me to come in late tonight. So I decided to go home and rest up. I walked in the house, it still looked the same. Broken glasses and the same dirty needles laying around. I walked upstairs and this short stocky man walked out my mothers room, he gave me a up and down. I rolled my eyes and looked the door to my room. Picked out my outfit for work and took a nap.
I woke up a little late and with a thousand texts from Cita. I jumped up and showered then slipped on my jogging suit, stuffed my duffel bag with outfits for tonight. I walked out and jumped in Cita's car.
"Damn Cedes was you planning on working tonight!" I rolled my eyes.
"Cita I'm tired of this"
"I know but how else we going to afford college"
"By getting a simple job!"
"Look we're making over a thous every night Cedes! Just take it and roll with it iight."
I quickly hushed up. She had a point. We stepped inside the club. Music booming. Our club was pretty nice black marble interior, neon lights glowing on our skin. I rushed to the bar for a shot to ease my nerves. Primetime was playing in the background.
Tell me why you acting funny
With all that money
Tell me why you acting baaadddd
With your kitty kaaaatt.
I left the bar and went to the dressing room.
The club was filling up. I put on my gold chain tease for the night. Rowdy, our DJ was a TPain look alike. I giggled at the way he announced me, he kills every time.
"Now gentlemen and ladies too" he smirked and winked "we have our Vanilla special hitting the stage tonigh'. 5'3" make ya don't wanna leave." He laughed as they mouths devoured me as I walked on stage and gripped the pole. "Yeah that's right, Miss. Baby doll herself."
The Weekend's song The Morning started playing its chords. I got to my position and played my role. It'll be over soon Cedes. I thought to myself.
