Beautiful Exit: The Bunny Ranch Murders

*Chapter 4*

"Willy all of the rooms on the 3rd floor are cleaned and Vickie said she'd do the 3rd and 2nd floor, if its okay with you I am going to clock out. Mhm whatever" he said from behind the desk. I literally hated this job but I needed it to get money for us to survive. I clocked out and headed back to our room on the 3rd floor. We move rooms every week based on the capacity of the hotel. Now we're on the 3rd floor in the very last room on the floor. Hopefully this will be the last room because I can't keep moving every week like that. Plus every time we move rooms we come up short on money.

"Hey y'all" I said walking into the room. "Hey Zo, you off early? Yeah I wasn't feeling well and if I have to look at one more nasty ass toilet or bug infested room I am going to throw up. When do you think we'll be able to leave? I don't know Natalie; every time we switch rooms we come up missing money. It's like when we move two steps forward we get snatched back 4 steps. Where is DJ? Work, she should be back in an hour or so. Okay. I am going to take a shower, here order us a pizza I said pulling a 10 out of my pocket. A pizza really, we normally just eat sandwiches or whatever DJ brings home. Yeah I am tireD of sandwiches and there is no telling when Dj will be back. Okay" she said grabbing the phone as I a grabbed some clothes and went into the bathroom.

I literally scrubbed my skin till it was pink and raw. I pray to god every night if he got us out of this hotel that I'd never stay in another hotel again. You think oh it's a hotel it's clean because they clean them every day. Not so! We only clean the rooms after someone has stayed in it and even if they stayed in the room Willie tells us if it still looks clean just dust and come out. He times us on how long it takes to clean the rooms. It should only take 20 minutes to clean the room! Every time we switch rooms it takes us at least 2 hours to disinfect and clean so that we at least feel comfortable to sleep in the beds. I need a different plan cause working here at going to cut it no more.

After taking a long hot shower, I got out put on some lotion and wrapped up my hair. Surprisingly DJ was back from work and she had a huge smile on her face. "What's up, why you so happy? Look at this she said pulling out a crisp hundred dollar bill. Where you get that from? I got it with my tips. You got a 100 tip? Yeah I was surprised too, I've never gotten anything higher than a 5 or maybe that one time I got a 10. Damn girl you must be some kind of waitress. I guess" she said shrugging. "Natalie you order the pizza? Yeah it should be here in a few minutes we just gotta go down and meet them you know Willie don't like delivery people in the halls. Yeah I know all too well. Zo can I talk to you for a minute? Yeah what's up I said putting my dirty clothes in the basket."

That was one of the good thing about living in a hotel you can do all the laundry you and you ain't gotta pay for it. Bad thing is you gotta have your own laundry detergent.

"What's up DJ" I said as we stepped out into the hallway. "Natalie's birthday is coming up what are we going to do for her? Oh shit I don't even know. It's a big one too she's turning 16. Damn! Did you really forget Zo? No I didn't it's just with everything that's going on, we should do something for her on Sunday night that's the slowest night and Willy's ass won't be here. Maybe Glenda will let us use that little room downstairs. Naw they rent that and its 50 an hour. You know what we can splurge a little for her birthday and go eat on the stip. Really! It's her 16th birthday she deserves a little normalcy. You're right! Zo the pizza person is downstairs! Natalie said opening the door. Cool I'll go and get it, DJ get us some drinks. What you want to drink? Just get me a Dr. Pepper.

I walked down to the lobby and greeted the pizza guy. "Oh damn" he said looking at me. I rolled my eyes, "how much? 10 even! Here" I said handing him the money. "So what's your name? Not your business" I said taking the pizza from him. "You ain't gotta have an attitude. Well you ain't gotta ask my name. See you light skinned bitches always got an attitude. Excuse me! You heard me. Is there a problem" Willie said coming from behind the desk. "Naw ain't no problem enjoy your pizza". I looked at him and rolled my eyes. "I don't want any drama in my hotel Zora! I got it Willie. Mhm yall lucky I am letting yall asses stay here too" he said as I went back up to the room.
