Kristella Lindsey Samson gave up her lively and exciting adolescent life at such an early age to support her family. She didn't have a choice but to take a stripper's job. She is willing to go to any length in order to assis...

"BAKIT ANG laki ng halaga na nilagay mo rito?"
He gave me a shrug before walking away.
Nakatitig lang ako sa cheque na binigay niya at hindi makapaniwala kung gaano kalaki iyong pera na basta nalang niya ibinibigay sakin. Is he like this to everyone?
Kaya ba galit na galit si Scarlet dahil mabilis magtiwala at mamigay ng pera si Micko sa mga kaibigan niya? Ganito ba sya kagalante sa lahat?
"M-Micko..." I called him. Nakita ko siyang pumunta sa kusina kaya pinuntahan ko siya doon.
He was drinking water when I came in.
"Ang laki naman nitong ibabayad mo sakin... Parang hindi naman tama na tanggapin ko 'to," sabi ko at saka ko binabalik sakaniya iyong cheque na hawak ko.
Nginitian lang niya ako bago ako nilapitan at hinawakan sa magkabilang balikat.
"Lindsey... That's not even enough. You actually deserve to get paid even more than what you do. Your job is no joke and I know that you really needed that money for your family, so just please accept it."
Hindi ko alam kung anong sasabihin ko sakaniya. As much as I don't want to accept it, I also know that this would help me with paying Jayden, and I will save half of it for Papa's emergency fund.
"Babayaran kita... Hindi ko talaga kayang tanggapin 'to, Micko." sabi ko sakaniya.
Alam kong naaawa lang sakin si Micko kaya nya 'to ginagawa at dahil alam niyang ako ang nag-tatrabaho para sa pamilya ko. At kapag tinanggap ko iyon ng ganon-ganon lang e'di para ko na ring pinatunayan iyong binibintang ni Scarlet sakin na pera lang ni Micko ang habol ko. At hindi iyon totoo.
Even though Micko is unreachable, I genuinely wanted to be his friend...
Despite the fact that he is way out of my league...
Even befriending him, however, appears to be impossible.
I heard him sigh dejectedly. "All right," he said, "I'll let you pay me on one condition."
While staring at him, my brow furrowed.
He's got a sly grin on his face, as if he's planning something.
"You'll pay me by working for me, but not as my personal stripper any longer..." he said, causing my brow to furrow even further.
Is he going to end our contract?
"But instead... you'll start working as my personal assistant,"
"Ha?"
"Yes, Lindsey, you heard me correctly."
"Personal assistant?"
He smiled as he nodded at me. "I'll talk to your boss about our contract," he said, "so you don't have to worry."
