Angel In The Club

CHAPTER 5

"Hi,my name is Courtney Brady Coleman."

"Nice to meet you, I'm Britney". She said shaking her hand.

"Britney oh yeah, I've heard alot about you". The girl said.

What is with everyone hearing alot about her and what is up with the girl on the pole tattoos it must be something of significance if this girl and Amanda has it too. And then there is the matter of a pole in the middle of the room what kind of game are these people playing.

Britney was totally distracted by her thoughts and have absolutely forgot about the girl in front of her. She is staring at her expectantly with her hand rested on her hip now.

"Well I hope he is thinking about you back home as much as you're thinking about him".The girl said smirking.

"I'm sorry sometimes I get caught up in my thoughts and zone out." Britney said feeling a little embarrassed.

"That's okay I understand."Courtney said and she glimpsed a silver ring at the tip of her tongue.

"You can go to your side of the room and have your clothes arranged in the wardrobe over there and Courtney will help get you settled." Amanda said smiling at her and placing the handle of the suitcase in her hand and exiting the room.

Britney went over to my side of the room and felt eyes piercing her back.
"So how is it living in Jamaica?"

"Huh, I guess it's okay,the sun is always shining and we have beautiful white sand beaches. Where are you from?" She asked.

"I'm from India it's nice enough but I like America a little more though. There is access to more drugs and I like meeting rich,handsome men every night".

"What did you just say?" Shd said sure she was not hearing right.

"I am just joking with you,you look so pale right now you should see your expression. Has anyone told you before that you have an expressive face?" Courtney said laughing and coming close to rolling off her queen sized bed.

"Don't play those jokes with me again". Britney said unable to keep a straight face as her jolly mood was infectious and palpable, she reminds me of Kevin and this attribute makes her favour her even more.

"How long have you been here?"

"For about two weeks now".

"Cool,what did you sign up to do housekeeping, barista or waitress?"

"Well they do have another job that is available but it requires for you to be open to new possibilities. You will be introduced to it soon enough".

"I don't understand, I didn't see any other jobs listed on the website is this like a specialist job where you have to be certified to do, why isn't it listed for everyone?"

"As I said you will be introduced to it soon enough just stop thinking about that and follow me I'm going to introduce you to the rest of the gang." She said getting up off her bed and waiting for her by the door.

Britney followed behind her down the hall way to a door right beside ours. She pushed the door open. The room was as big or even bigger than our own.

Two girls looked up from their phones and Britney was able to distinguish the different countries that they came from immediately. The African girl practically skipped over to where they were and flung her arms around her like they were long time friends. In her shock she was unable to hug her back.

"I'm Narumba you most be Britney the girl from Jamaica".

"Nice to meet you". Britney's voice sounding a little strained shr really hated attention.

"That's Saskura over there." She had gesturing to the Asian girl from her place on the bed she could see she had alot of piercings.

Britney waved at her and she accompanied this with a hiss of her teeth it was low but she managed to make out the sound. That was rude she thought and remembered why she hated to try and talk to people first.

"Don't mind her, it took a whole week for her to warm up to me. The strategy I used was to just kill her with my overbearing kindness. Anyway we will be watching a movie tonight since we will not be working until tomorrow night."

"You guys work in the night do you and Courtney work the same place?"

"Yes she didn't tell you we work in...."

"That's enough Narumba, Britney just came here let's just give her a little time to adjust and allow the leaders to explain everything to her okay."

"Why does noone want to tell me the jobs you guys do, is it something illegal or something?" Britney asked annoyed more than ever. She was greeted with silence and the Narumba looks uncomfortable.

Britney exited the room and went to my room to connect her phone so she could have it charged up to call mommy and Kevin to take her mind off the insanely wrong feeling sge had being with these people. She just came here and already sge felt like this is something more than a work and travel agency.

Britney dug through her bag pack and retrieved her phone and thankfully found a port near to her bed that she could connect her phone.

Courtney enters the room a few minutes later and sits on the edge of her bed.

"The movie is going to start in 30 minutes you can meet us down in the living room. There's going to be fresh popcorn and drinks,okay. Everyone is looking forward to you coming down and I'm sorry about earlier she just don't have the authority to tell you anything only Damian or Amanda can explain this too you,remember half an hour." She says and exits the room again.

Britney looked on her phone screen and see its reached 5% and turn it on to discover 20 missed calls from her mother. Britney felt her heart sink and she called her three times all of her attempts went straight to her voicemail. Britney saw it was after 11'o clock and wondered if she had gone to bed already.

She then tried to call Kevin and on the second ring his groggy voice graced her ears and she felt some of the burden dissipate from off her chest.

"What's up foreigner how are you liking America so far?"

Britney tells Kevin about driving in the Rolls Royce and how big the house was and how nice the girls were.
She left out the part about them acting strange and obviously hiding something from her.

Britney promised she would call him tomorrow and then they hang up. Britney changed out of her bra and made her way downstairs to where she saw the living room when she came in.
