When Rey was back at the hostel, she told the nice lady at the desk who she had spoken earlier in the morning with about the job. The women was very happy for Rey and smiled when she told her. The women told Rey the hostel is always open so she will have no trouble coming back in tonight.
Rey made her way to get dinner and then she decided to go back to the city center to dance some more. She went out and decided to stay out until 5 then go back to the hostel for tea and get sorted for tonight. The Centre's atmosphere was still strange to Rey she was still use to the quiet desert in Jakku but at least here she wasn't fighting for her life, running away from harm or dodging scavengers who would steal anything you had and loved for money. She decided on a different part of the city this time and settled down and began to dance.
She arrived back at the hostel at 5 and helped the staff to make tea for her and the rest of the hostel which she enjoyed because it brought back sweet memories of her and Mrs. Erso cooking together. She served up to her fellow hostel residents and sat and ate in the small communal dining room. She took time to get dressed into her best outfit she had a plain black dress. There was an older woman in her mid 30s at the hostel who helped Rey out by giving her some makeup to put on. Rey remembers having makeup put on for shows when she was little and just did light makeup for her performance tonight.
The lady at the desk told her to be careful at the club and Rey intended to be that is why she took her quarterstaff with her in case anyone tried anything funny. She would fight back with anyone she didn't care she learnt to fight living with Unkar. The scum always tried to steal stuff, steal her findings for food or try flirting with her. She resolved those problems with her quarterstaff and fists.
When she got to the bar it was bustling but she managed to get around everyone and up to Jabba who was behind the bar. He let her into the staff area to put down her bag and get herself ready.
"Rey you ready?"
She was this was going to be her show tonight she said to herself. She went through to the front and up to the stage. Eyes were immediately glancing at her then Jabba announced that she would be dancing. Rey felt almost everyone's eyes on her as she put down her phone and started to dance to several different songs. Her breaks where well welcomed for toilet stops or just to cool off. They were lots of shouting from drunk men when she was dancing but she ignored their rude comments and continued until her three-hour shift ended at 11 o'clock. She went over to Jabba and he gave her £200 which was surprising as he said earlier that day, she would only be getting £100 but he said that she had brought in twice as many people as he had expected, and he wanted to help her out. She was very thankful to him adding everything up she now had £500 from the £100 she had started with when she was at the hotel just two days ago, she was doing very very well.
It was a short walk back to the hostel and a bit scary being out in the dark where anyone could be lurking, but she was fine after all she could kick anyone's ass if needed. She got back into the hostel no problem and got ready for bed and went to sleep.
She would be at 'Jabbas place' dancing every two days the odd days she decided she would dance in the city center to make money and see how it goes.
