: Kiss me! Love me!

Chapter Five

I woke up the next day with a throbbing headache and I was even in a room I had never seen before. I rubbed my head again. It must be the hangover from last night's drinks. I got up from the bed and immediately felt pain in my lower region. "f**k" I hissed out in pain before making my way into the bathroom.

There was clean cloth on the bed, so the person who put me in the room must have put it there so I decided to clean up, While taking my bath, I washed up the blood that had dried on my inner thighs and that was when the things that happened to me last night came rushing into my head.

I got drunk with Sarah, then she left with her boyfriend. I took my shots, met a sexy man and then we had s*x. "Holy crap, I lost my virginity!" I yelled in the bathroom.

I don't even know the man I had s*x with, I didn't even ask him what his name was, and neither did he ask about mine. I just casually had s*x, f**k don't tell me I lost my virginity to a one-night stand. I got out of the bathroom, tossed the dress into the trash can, and changed into the clean cloth on the bed.

I searched the room hoping to find anything but it was empty. I left the VIP room, thank God it was morning time so the strip club was empty but I still felt so embarrassed for coming out at this hour.

I saw a woman sweeping the room and walked up to her, "Hello, I just got out of room five and I want to pay for it" I told her.

"You should go to the counter and ask the woman there," The woman told me, I nodded and left for the counter where two women were discussing something.

I cleared my throat when I got there to catch their attention, "We aren't usually open in the morning ma'am so you can come back at night" One of them said

"I understand but I'm not here to have fun, I want to pay for the room I stayed in last night" I explained

"Room number?" She asked with her eyes glued on the computer screen. "Room number five" I answered

"The room has been paid for ma'am," She said

"Paid for?" I asked and she nodded her head. "Can I know who paid for the room?" I asked

She nodded in refusal, "I'm sorry but it's strictly against the club policy"

"Please, I woke up in the room and I don't know how I got there. I need to at least know the name of the person who brought me here, I'm begging you" I pleaded. She frowned before a sigh escaped her lips.

She checked the computer for a few seconds and I was glad that she was helping. "The VIP room was paid for by Nicholas Carter" She read out the name

Nicholas Carter? Who was that?

"Thank you so much," I said. The woman went back to talking to her friends and so I used that opportunity to leave the bar for my house.

Thank God that my dad has traveled the day before on a business trip so he won't be home to scold me when I get home. Sarah had left me a lot of missed calls and text messages so when I got up, I decided to text her to let her know that I had gotten home fine.

"And where the hell are you coming from?" Marissa asked when I was about to go into my room. I was so scared but when I realized that it was her, I frowned.

"Can't you just stay out of my business for once?" I snapped at her, honestly, I wasn't in the mood for her nonsense this morning. I just lost my virginity at a strip club to a man who I didn't even know too well. He didn't even wait in bed with me.

"You are such a slut, I'm sure you spent the night with a man for money," She said

"You had better watch your tongue because I am not in the mood to entertain your stupid behavior this morning"

And chuckled, "Oh please, I wasn't the one who said you should give your self-esteem out" That was it, I had enough of her silly behaviors. I walked up to her and slapped her hard on the face.

She screamed and returned the slap immediately. While I brought my hand up to put her in her place, my stepmother walked into us. "Stop this nonsense immediately" She yelled

"Mummy, just because I scolded her for coming home late, she slapped me" Marissa cried out and rushed to her mum's side.

"How dare you slap my daughter?" My stepmother asked in anger.

"She just didn't..." I had not finished my sentence when my stepmother slapped me hard on the face. I staggered backward as tears filled my eyes.

"I have said it, your mother will be turning in her grave to see what kind of child she gave birth to, I feel sorry for your father" My stepmother lashed out at me.

The tears began to roll down my cheeks as I touched my face which must be red now since the both of them hit me on the same spot.

"Let's go mummy, I will make some pancakes for you." Marissa pulled her mum away leaving me there in front of my room. I heard the two of them laugh as they went downstairs.

I rushed into my room and closed the door with a loud bang, locked it before dropping to the floor in tears. My mother's picture stood on the wall there, it was as if she was staring at me and feeling the same pain I was feeling.

It was at that moment that I made the best decision of my life, "I swear on your grave Mum, I will make them pay"
