"What just happened?" Ms.Pim stood beside me, I turned to her, and my only answer was a shrug. I knew that man, suddenly left.
"Where's Andrei?" I asked her. She turned to our left, and there I saw the man at fault, smiling while signing peace.
"I will skin you alive," I mumbled to myself. I approached him, and Ms. Pim followed me, when I got in front of Andrei, I immediately kicked him in the back, and he immediately walked away from me.
"Hey, what did I do?" as he says that, I can see in his face that he is hurt by what I did. He deserved it.
"What was that? He left, Andrei. ”
“Okay, relax. I will talk to him, and maybe he was just shocked by what you did. He’s not used to it. ” I frowned at what he said. When I looked at the man a while ago, it was evident that it had taken a lot of girls beside him in bed. "He's allergic to women, especially to…." I raised my hand to stop him from talking. I know what he means.
He doesn’t like people like me. "Then, why is he still here looking for a bride?" I raised an eyebrow at the man in front of me now. Don't they have many acquaintances to invite like this?
“Because I know you need it, and you can get out of here; Ms. Pim knows all about this; we talked. We just helped you out of here, Janella. ”
I went silent, and they could both get me out of here. I looked at Ms. Pim. "Are you sure you want me out?" I asked. She shook his head.
“No, but if that is all that can help you, I will. I know you are safe with that man because he is Andrei's best friend. ”
"What will I do? He left." I looked at Andrei again. He smiled at me, which annoyed me more, and he even had the urge to smile.
"I texted him already, and he will wait outside after your shift." My eyes narrowed at what he said. He should have talked to me before he left then waited for me outside.
“Just go to him, Janella. Your shift is now done for tonight, ”Ms. Pim said.
"Are you sure?" I asked. She nodded and smiled at me. I heaved a sigh and nodded as well to them.
This is it; it's up to me if I'm ashamed of that man, it's hard for me to make a decision, but Andrei and Ms. Pim helped me with this, I need this opportunity. I'm not rich and have graduated to find a decent job and stability. People like me just cling to the knife to survive.
I went to our dressing room to get dressed, and I hadn't even entered yet when Felicia blocked me. My ex-best friend.
"Is what I heard right? You're leaving here?" she asked. I just ignored her because I knew she was looking for trouble again. I was about to walk from her when she held my shoulder to stop.
"I don't want trouble," I said. She smiled, which annoyed me.
“I just want to say that's right, get out of here because it's true. You're not a good stripper; Ms. Pim was just forced; she put you on top because you needed to. ”
Maybe she didn't know that I was leaving because someone had bought me and he’s a rich man, and when she found out that she would be angry and jealous of me again. I grabbed her hand, held my shoulder, and slowly removed it from there.
“Don't worry, and you'll never see me again, Felicia. You are now in my place because I know you like it better. You want men to look up to you even though you know they don't respect you. ” I said at length that she was obviously bored.
“I’ll just remind you, Janella. Don't dream of having a man who will respect you. Remember, you also came from a dirty job, and when you leave here, I'm sure you won't be much happier. ”
She was furious at me. We used to be okay, we entered at the same time, and during those times, we both didn't know that this was what we were going to join in life. Felicia is my best friend, but before that, she started getting mad at me when Ms.Pim replaced me with the former top stripper in the club. I did not ask that from Ms. Pim,but Felicia has been angry, and since then, she doesn't talk to me anymore, and this is how she treats me.
"Sure, Felicia, we're both dirty, but we have a difference." I stopped and looked straight at her. “You know what makes us different? I don't like what I'm doing, I just did this because I need this, but you, you don't need it. You just want everyone looking at you. We’re not the same, Felicia. You are dirtier. ”
After I said that, I glared at her, and so did she. I left her and went straight to my drawer to get dressed. I don't have time to talk to her anymore.
When I got dressed, I immediately said goodbye to my other colleagues and Ms. Pim. It looks like Andrei is gone, too, so I just let it go. When I got out of the club, I saw a car near me. I went through the back door, and no one was in this passage except Andrei and us. I just watched the car closely until someone got off, and I was stunned to speak when I saw him, Andrei's friend. The one who left me inside.
I took a deep breath before walking towards him. “Hey,” I greeted him. He just looked at me like he didn’t care if I existed.
“You must be Janella? The one b***h who was dancing in front of me inside and the one mentioned by Andrei. ” That’s not a question of him but a statement of fact.
I just didn't pay attention to what he said because it was true. “Hi, I am Janella. At your service. ” I smiled at him, but he didn’t care at all.
“Get in,” he said, and I was confused. "I said get in the car, and we will talk about the deal. Hurry up. There’s a lot of mosquitoes." And just by that, I quickly went to the other side to ride. Is he afraid of mosquitoes? Well, all rich people are like him.
I just watched him ride inside as well. Earlier inside the bar, I didn't look at his whole body because he was sitting, but right now, his height and his nose are very pointed.
Would it be just as beautiful as him when we had a child? "Stop looking at me, and it creeps me out." I smiled at him.
I just stopped because I remembered what happened earlier inside. He didn't even care that I danced in front of him. Embarrassing.
I turned to him. "Andrei said you're allergic to women, and you should find a guy who would marry you." I immediately closed my mouth when he turned to me and stared at me. "Just kidding, you're serious, Sir."
“I don’t like jokes if we’re not close. Just take this. ” He took a folder and handed it to me.
"What is this?" I asked if I hadn't done it because he seemed angry again. She should choose Felicia to be his bride because they are always mad. "I said I'll be quiet, but what is this?" I asked again.
"That's an agreement between us, and if you sign that, the marriage will follow." Oh God! I'm going to marry this rude man. “Open it when you’re in your house,” he said. I just shrugged my shoulders.
“If you don't like women, why do you want to get married and you are here looking for a wife. I mean, don't you have a well-known woman that you can just take care of. I am sure no one can see no to you. ” I said, but he ignored me; instead, he opened the door on my side.
“You talked too much. Now, go out and leave. ” I wondered, looking at him, that's all?
"I'm sorry, I was just wondering why you were looking for a bride here." As I continued talking, he glared at me, so I shut my mouth.
"Give me your phone." I was even more surprised when he asked for my cell phone, but I did nothing but give him my cheap cell phone. It was small and still had a keypad. "This is your phone?" he asked as if I were some kind of weird person that I had a small and cheap phone.
“What’s with my phone?” I asked him.
“You worked as a stripper, and you have a lot of money too, and you didn’t buy a nice phone?” he asked.
“I'm sorry, all the money I got from being a stripper goes to my family. I don’t have time to buy expensive phones because I don’t want to. Also, what are you going to do here? ” he's annoying. Even my cellphone is being asked.
I just watched him use my phone. “I saved my number here. Call me if you have already signed the agreement. And here. ” I frowned when he gave me money. "Take it and buy a new phone for yourself."
