The elevator finally opened.

Romeo grabbed my wrists from behind and led me to a small room.

I didn't like Romeo but I didn't want to test him.

The room we entered had Bambi (Romeo's cousin) Valeria (His sister) Alfonso (his brother) and 5 other people.

Alfonso grinned when he saw me.

Romeo threw me on the floor.

"This little rat will be working for us until her debt of half a million dollars is paid off"

Someone sucked air through their teeth.

"Do what you please with her, just try not to kill her, she owes us."

Alfonso snorted.

I get up and try to put on a strong face.

But when I hear Romeo leave and Alfonso come near me I start to shake.

He whispered in my ear.

"I'm going to break you in half with my dick."

My eyes go wide.

He snickers and walks out the same way Romeo did.

Bambi approaches me.

"Don't worry kid, Alfonso can't do nothin to you unless boss says so. And I can already tell Boss likes you, or at least he will."

I freeze at the thought of Romeo taking a liking to me.

"Calm down kid."

I try to smile at her. I don't know if I can trust her but she's the best I got.

"Want anything to drink?" She asks leading me to the bar.

"No thanks, I'm not 21 till next week"

Then I clasp my hand over my mouth. I need to stop telling these people things.

She instead laughs and says

"Age don't matter kid. Your free here."

And yet I was not. 

"Vodka for me then." She said.

"Same" I said quietly.

I had never had any kind of drink. Unless you count the wine they give us at the weekly masses my family and I attended.

The man behind the bar looked me up and down, smirked and slid me a tiny cup.

I took a tiny sip and immediately regretted it. I spit it out and started choking.

Bambi hit my back to help.

¨You aren't  supposed to sip it darlin, do this...¨

She takes her cup throws he head back while gulping it down. 

I nodded and tried it again. I got the hang of it.

I finished it and requested another.

For the next few hours I drowned myself in drinks and some kind of cigarette.

I may have passed out a few times, I had no idea what time it was.

My mother would not approve.

I went onto the floor and started dancing with myself. It was the most fun I have had in a long time. I felt like I was on top of the world

"Alright, that's enough for the girl." Said a voice.

I rolled my eyes. Who does this person think he is.
