RED BOTTOMS

CHAPTER 5

"750K ?" he asked as he smiled sinisterly .

"if you cant offer that then .."

"then what? you are selling yourself that cheaply ,other hoes price themselves triple that but don't worry sweetheart you will work for every singe cent I'm going to give you " he hissed as he downed the glass .

i wanted to shout at him and tell him i was not a hoe but he was right i was selling myself to him but he was really wrong if he thought he was going to call the shots here .

"When can i get the money its kinda urgent i need it for my sisters m hospital bill ",i inquired knowing well oi was playing with fire .

" so eager to get the money ,hope you will be eager to pay for it ',

" im more than eager ", i purred as i moved to sit next to him .

i took my time to observe the man and from my position he was really such a good looking well built man ,for a minute there i was just grateful i was not going to deal with an unsightly man .

who knows i was going to enjoy doing this .

"Are you done gawking me ?i know I'm irresistible but im not in the mood for that. Write down your account details here ", he said handing me a notebook .

i jotted the numbers fast grateful the man was not in the mood for any s****l activity ,atleast i was going to buy time and visit my sister .

"write your number there ,i will call you when i need you ,and you better answer because you really don't know what i can do to anyone who betrays me Maddeline Aria Cooper ".

that alone was enough to knock me from the reverrie i was in.

"How do you know my name though ?"

No one knew my full name ,i don't even know if my parents remembered that unless this man was stalking me .

" is it a crime to know your name ?'

"Not really im just surprised "

" just get out and prepared adequately ", he ordered as he slammed the door .

" my whole body was shaking ,i couldn't bring myself to believe what had happened inside the room .

i hurried back to the locker room ready to grab my stuff and leave but the b***h who had pushed me earlier saw me .

she was in walking in front of Ryan who seemed so worn out .

"20 minutes aren't over yet here you are , what wrong with you ,you cant entertain a man now ?' she demanded as she moved to grab me ,but i was quick enough to dodge her .

" why on earth do you care , you said i do my job and i have done it so you better find something else to get mad at "

My words seemed to anger her and in seconds she was raising her ugly ass hands to slap me but once again i dodged that ,i was not going to let her ruin my mood in any way .

"you know once Mike hears about this you will be fired right ?" she pressed as she puffed .

" of cause neither do i care. Now scram before i ruin that plastic nose ".

The words seemed to get into her and she left immediately. She would be crying to her boyfriend and within minutes he would be here so i knew i had to leave immediately.

" that was really impressive that b*tch needed to be checked , im really sorry ,but are you sure you want this ,i can beg mike for you if you want me to" Ryan offered .

" i will be okay ,i need to change and leave before i face that man's wrath. If yall get paid and i have a share you can send it to me ".

i quickly wore my jeans before packing my other clothes and slipping out after exchanging numbers with Ryan .

if that strange man transferred that money to me tonight was going to be my last night in this establishment .

i couldn't help but smile at the thought of that , i would pay off summer's bill and enroll to nursing school then my problems could be lesser .

who knew just one night was the game changer .

" there you go counting your chicks before they hatch ", my inner voice admonished me .

i was getting easily carried with greed . i pushed that to the back of mind as i started my truck .

it was going to break down soon but it had really served me for a long time . siomething i was grateful for

i passed by the dinner i worked during the day and picked some food before heading back to the shanty i called home .

i had to call summer's doctor to know her well being before I started eating .

" Hello Maddie, I'm glad you called. The other woman doesn't seem to understand anything. Her ribs were fractured but we did a corrective surgery. She will be back on her feet soon but meanwhile, she has to stay in here for monitoring ".

" what about her spinal cord ", i couldn't help but ask that's what really troubled me .

" What spine ?only her ribs and hands suffered from being used as a shield ",

"Hailey said her spine was fractured so how comes ?'

"She might have confused the two , so when are you going to clear the bill , none of your family members have any insurance so this is going to be expensive".

"i know , I'm trying to find ways to raise the amount. Please bare with me ", i pleaded .

"I'm sorry, Maddie but you know how things are run i cant really help you now. You know if half of the bill isn't paid by tommorow she will be released and her being from the theater will be gruesome",he announced before ending the call.

That stranger was my only way out ,i regretted not asking for his contact details .
