Stripper (Urban Short Story)

Chapter 3

I woke up and rolled around in my bed. I hate the mornings. I rolled over on my stomach and stared at the wall. That guy was still on my mind. Maybe I should call him to thank him for the money. That's the least I can do.

I lifted up in my bed and looked at the time. Wow, it was only 9:13. Maybe it's a little too early to call him. I'll just do my morning routine and eat breakfast then call.

I walked into my bathroom and looked at myself. Sometimes I feel insecure about myself. People say that I'm hot and sexy, but never omce have I heard someone say that I'm beautiful. I don't know if it's because I'm a stripper, but that shouldn't change anything. I started brushing my teeth and then I hopped in the shower. 20 mimutes later, I got out and walked to my closet. I picked out my favorite crop top which had a black picture on it and my black and grey leggings. I sat on my bed and slipped on my Concord 11's. I went to my vanity and put on my makeup then straightened my hair.

I ran down the steps to find my favorite person in the kitchen, as always.

"Morning Babe", I said as I kissed her cheek.

"Morning Baby Girl. You look cute today, why are you all dressed up?", she said with one eyebrow up giving me the side eye.

"No reason. I was just going to head to the mall after you prepare me some breakfast."

I gave her a huge smile, "And you really think I'm going to do that?"

"I thought you loved me? I thought we were best friends?", I said with a pouty face.

She stared at me, "Ugh, fine. I hate when you do face. I always give in."

I laughed, "I know. That's why I do it. Duh."

I grabbed my phone and scrolled through instagram. I am always getting hacked or my account gets deleted. I swear the people who do these things are such haters. But, I don't let them stop my life. I exited instagram and went to call. I did say I was gonna call the guy. I'll just do it now since Karmen didn't start breakfast yet.

"I'll be right back Kar."

"Okay."

I ran upstairs and looked at the pile of clothes I had on from yesterday. I looked through it and found the number. I stared at the paper with his number on it. Should I really call him? What if he doesn't remember?

I put his number in my phone and pressed call. It rang, and rang, and rang. It was ringing too many times and I was about to hang up when he picked up the phone.

"Hello?" Oh my jesus, his morning voice is so sexy. I was so stuck i didn't know what to say. "Helloooooo?"

Oh my god, say something Alaina. "Uhhh, h-hi."

"Who is this?" I can hear him getting up and I heard shuffling noise in the background.

"T-this is the girl from the strip club. I gave you a lapdance and you wrote your number and then gave my boss a huge wad of money for me. But, I was just calling to say thank you and that you didn't have to do that.", I said all in one breath.

He didn't say anything. I knew he was still on the phone because I can hear him breathing.

"Hello? Are you still there?"

He kept breathing and then he hung up. I know he did not just hang up on me. I called him back again. It rang three times, them I got sent to voicemail. Wow, he gives me his number and when I call to say thanks, he hangs up? Great.

I walked down the stairs and I can smell bacon, blueberry pancakes, and cinnamon waffles. I walked over to the counter and took a seat on the stool.

"What took you so long up there?", Karmen said while taking plates out the cupboard.

"I was calling the guy who gave me the money last night. All I wanted to do was say thanks and he hung up on me."

She started laughing. "What's funny?", I asked confused.

"Nothing, did you call him back?"

"Yeah, it rang three times then went to voicemail."

"Wow, that's messed up. Give him some time, maybe there was bad connection where he is."

I scoffed, "Yeah okay. Bad connection my ass."

As I said that, my phone beeped notifying me that I had a text message. I opened it and it was from the guy.

It said to meet him at the mall by the food court at 1 o'clock. I just stared at the phone. This guy is something else. I looked at the time and it was 11:30. I still have time to eat. I grabbed the plate and started eating. I turned on the TV in the kitchen. Love & Basketball was on. I swear their relationship was not fairytale like. That shit was real world type shit. I finished my food after about 10 minutes and put my plate in the sink. I got a glass and poured some orange juice in it. I gulped it down so fast, I don't think 10 seconds passed. Ha.

I yelled out to Karmen, "Kar, I'm leaving."

"Alright, have fun at the mall. Buy me something." I shook my head at her. She always wants me to buy something for her. I love her as a sister so I don't even care that she asks me all the time. I grabbed my car keys and headed over to my Mercedes Benz.

I got to the mall and it was 12:30. I still have some time to buy some clothes for me and Karmen. First stop, Forever 21.
