"AMAIRAH ! WHEN THE HELL ARE YOU GOING TO LEARN TO BE ON TIME? ONCE MORE YOU ARE LATE FOR YOUR APPOINTMENT AND YOU WILL SEE ME ADDING MORE AND MORE CUSTOMERS TO YOUR SCHEDULE!"
Geez! That's what she has to hear for being 15 minutes late to an appointment with some horny oldie.
But what was she supposed to do? Having registered to a respectable university online, she was glad she could finish her education. Though Addo , the man who was in charge of the brothel she worked in, had forbidden her any other job saying that in return she would have to pay an amount that was way beyond what she could ever afford, she still knew the importance of education and wanted to complete it.
So that was where she had been. Her last class was ending at 3:30 and her appointment was to begin at 3:30 too. She obviously was late and her customer was almost asleep by the time she entered the room that had been allotted to him. He was still asleep and would probably be wondering what he was doing where ever he was, if he ever woke up that is!
"Amairah ! Stop sleeping with you eyes open. I am talking to you!"
Oh Shit!
"Addo, you know I already take 5 customers a day! I am not a machine. This man sleeping out there would probably have had a heart attack had we done what he came here for!" She protested.
"But Mira, you can't get away with something like this every time. You really have start coming on time. I am responsible to somebody too, and he will not like it if even one customer goes home without getting what he paid for."Addo replied in a different tone, looking pretty helpless.
He had a soft corner for her, knowing her shattering past and all that she went through. He admired her for going through it all and still standing strong.
"Hey I know. I wouldn't repeat it. I swear."
"Cool! Go sleep next to the old man. When he wakes up, let him think he got what he came for."
Amairah chuckled . She knew he had cooled down the moment he came back to the nickname he had given her. There was nothing wrong with her name, and if not just for the sheer beauty of it, she loved it because it was the one thing that her parents had given her and she still possessed. But Addo only called her by her full name when he was really mad at her.
He was the only one who knew why she was here, working as a prostitute. Infact,he even knew a lot more than she did on why she couldn't leave the line and start off with another life. She knew everything, except for the man behind the entire scheming that landed her here which she suspected Addo knew.
She wasn't naïve , she knew he would have gotten out of it if he could. Her job paid her enough so she did not need to go out for another job. But she did not like her job, and she saw no way leading her out of it.
She quickly went and slid in next to the man, removing all her clothes and tying a bed sheet instead. After a few hours, she felt him stir and quickly pretended to fall asleep. He woke up, and she feigned waking up.
"Ah baby! Those were the best few hours of my life ! I will come back soon for you." He croaked in his pathetic voice.
Yah sure! God is coming for you sooner than you are coming for me.
Amairah nodded, unable to speak due to the laughter she was holding back As soon as he left, she laughed her ass off and quickly put on all her clothes. Addo soon came rushing in.
"Are you serious ! This was my third client this week, leaving with absolutely same words. You just have to allow me to get late like that more often!" Amairah exclaimed.
He laughed, "How does it matter Mira, you will still be late due to those classes of yours. Me allowing or not allowing wouldn't matter now, would it?"
He winked at her and she knew he was fooling with her. Addo always treated her and all the other prostitutes with respect. His wife, Agatha had also been one before they met and fell in love. It had been very simple actually, Agatha had been as sent as a call girl along with two other girls from California since the number of customers that visited them here in Canada had started to increase. So Agatha, came in at the age of 21,fulfilling the excess demand. But as time passed, Adoo and her started to date, eventually fell in love and married.
Addo refused to allow any more customers for her and now they are happily pregnant with their first baby.
Amairah knew something like that would never happen in her life. The more nights she spent with cheating husbands , the more her faith in love faded. She had now stopped hoping of living a happy life with a husband and children her faith in love was completely lost , thereby drowning herself in a darkness that was so lonely that no one she had ever met knew of its existence , let alone fill it. But she wanted a life beyond the brothel. Something which a certain man who she knew nothing about did not allow! She had met him, only once in her life and her faith in having a happy life had disappeared due to the very consequences of the events of that meeting.
She used to live happily with her parents, who were madly in love with each other. Of course there were the normal troubles that every family suffered, but nothing beyond it. She was a bubbly happy-go-lucky 16 years old who never thought of a life without her parents. But her happiness was short lived. One night her father did not come back home from work. It was normal for him to be late, but he never spent the night out without having her mother and herself with him. Early morning her mother filed a complaint and the search began. It was soon discovered that her father had been kidnapped. A week passed by and they received no news of him. Of course, this caused her mother to panic and she decided to search on her own, not having any faith left in the cops. She never came back and Amairah had been left been no hint as to where her parents went. She had nowhere to go, nothing do.
This was the point where she herself was kidnapped and handed over to Addo. She never saw the man who kidnapped her and a lot more things had happened to her between her getting kidnapped and being handed over to Addo, but somehow she knew that it was the same person who had kidnapped her father. She knew Addo knew something, probably even worked under him, but he never told her anything, saying he would tell her when the time was right.
3 years had passed and the right time had never come!
