Its only been a few months since I started selling my body for money. It all began because I was unable to pay my rent fees that were pilling up. If I missed another month I'd be kicked out. My parents died by the time I was 13 and I have no family here in Korea, so I would just be living on the streets. In my mind there was no other option. I had to do it.
"That's right you fucking whore! Prostitute scum!"
A man yelled from behind. My elbows scraping the cracked worn alleyway paving. I hear him pull something from his pocket and in the corner of my eye I see a glimmer. It's a fucking knife. This isn't the first time someone's set me up like this. Before he lunges at me I sprint away hoping to get somewhere safe. After turning a few corners I hear him trip as I happen to pass by a coffee shop. finally my get away Out of breath I head to a bathroom and wait for my fear to die down, but before I can enter a hand grabs me pulling me into an old storage cupboard.
I try to scream but he has his hands firmly around my mouth.
"Don't say a word. I think he's coming"
The brunette whispers into my ear. He couldn't be older than 19. He's tall. really tall and is on the thinner side. Kind of handsome too. aish what am I thinking this isn't the time for that.
Through the crack in the door I see the man from earlier slam the girls bathroom door open and search the stalls. My breath quickens.
"Shh he wont come in here I promise. Just stay quiet for now"
His words give me relief and I begin to calm down.
After a few moments a staff member comes in and asks him to leave. He runs away and after the coast is clear we leave the storage cupboard. I process everything that has just happened and turn to the guy.
"Who are you"
"The love of your life"
He says nonchalantly while finger guns. Ew.
"But on a more serious note, my name is Yuk-Hei, but because you're a foreigner you can call me Lucas. I happened to see you walk by into that alley... You do know prostitution is illegal here right?"
I open my mouth but then hesitate. His casual smile is long gone and if looks could kill... If he tells the police I'm screwed. Maybe If I beg for forgiveness or give him my sob story he'll let me off.
"Ah. Yes I know. At the moment money is tight and- "
"I figured. haha don't worry I'm not gonna report you or anything. But I do have a proposal for you"
Lucas then explains to me that his family have quite a bit of money so his apartment is too big for him to clean by himself. He wants me to clean it on weekends for 2 months and that whatever cost I'm struggling with he will pay enough for it on one condition.
"Only if you never do it again aaaaand
You live with me"
