I slowly sank into one of the two chairs outside the back of the club. I take out one cigarette and place it between my lips and go back inside when I remember that I forgot to bring my lighter.
I go through my bag and take out the lighter and my phone.
Once I'm outside and settled again I open my phone and find three messages from Mil.

Mil : Heeeyy, just saw your message, um my day was actually great. I think I got in shortly after you left. When will you be back. 8:00 p.m

Mil : seriously Jess are you alive? Don't you have a break? Text me once you take your break. 10:30 p.m

Mil : ummm, I'm gonna sleep. Wake me up once your here. 11:43 p.m

I look at the clock and find it's almost one a.m. I fiddle with my lighter and then text her once the smoke is warming up the air around me.

Me : hey Mil. Time just literally flew I didn't know I was here for almost six hours without a break. Anyway my shift ends now anyway, next time I'll take an early break and text you, your probably gonna read this in the morning. Wake me up so we can chat a little. Kay? Love you. Bye.

I finish my cigarette and take out another, I finish that one as well then start heading inside, all the while feeling empty and useless. This shift has been so distracting. Stopping all the perverts from ogling and checking my body absolutely was unbearable, but that's not just me, even Ethan my co-worker was approached by multiple women and men. I mean, it's like they only hire beautiful people here. Yup, I just complemented myself.

I go inside and start working again, a few minutes later I see the 'Man of the House' , as Ethan stated earlier, heading our way.

He comes and rests his arms on the table, tapping his thumbs together like he did earlier in his office.
I don't know what's his problem, seriously he should get a life or something. Go bang Leila.

" So, how is our new little employee." He says in a cheery tone that doesn't fit the wall of stone standing in front of me.

" I'm good." I give him one of my fakest smiles.

" Good." He claps his hand twice and suddenly all the bodyguards turn and he starts walking back to the exit door, leaving a confused me and Ethan behind. I turn to Ethan who simply shrugs, dismissing the subject, so I just forget it and go back to serving cocktails. Mostly to perverts. Until one single woman draws my attention and I walk to her.

" Hello there, what can I get you? " I smile at the obviously miserable woman coming to drown her sorrows in liquor.

" Brandy. " She says while huffing out in frustration.

" Okay, just a minute. " I turn around and start preparing her drink.

" Here, but it's not gonna help, it'll get worse. " I tell her while passing her her drink. She looks at me confused and-angry?

" What are you talking about? "  She says then gulps down her drink in one shot. Okay she's desperate.

" Whatever happened to you, drinking won't fix it, it will just make you end up rambling non-sense to whoever is listening and you'll wake up with a hangover. Ask an expert. " I place both my hands on the counter separating me and her while she stands up to her full height.
