I walked in frustration as I served the drinks to the people who were at the bar.
"I can't hear you!!!" I shouted due to the fact that I couldn't hear what the customer was saying.
The music was too loud and it is something I am already used to, since it has been long that I have been working here.
"Vodka shot " She shouted loud enough for me to hear and I took it immediately and gave it to her.
"Thanks." She said and I nodded.
I looked around the bar, waiting for more customers.
I watched as people cheered the striper and I just rolled my eyes.
Finally it is 10pm, I should be going home now another person should take over.
I left the bar to meet my boss, on my way to her office,I met a man on the way as he touched my chin and I looked at him badly.
"Do you think I'm like those Sl*t there?" I spatted.
The man is so irritating.
I tried passing by him and he held me back, and held me too tight to the wall. I tried struggling but it was not working.
He brought his lips closer to me as I used my knee to kick his groin.
He groaned in pain as I left there and hurried to my boss's office.
"Good evening Ma'am, I am going home already. I came to collect my pay for today." I informed her and she just nodded.
She's pretty proud though, I always wondered who married a woman like her.
"Come back tomorrow, I'm tired now and I will not be able to send it tonight." She excused herself.
What the hell!!!
I already planned what I wanted to use the money to do tomorrow afternoon, and now she's telling me this.
I don't have anything to say though, she is my boss and I must do whatever she says.
"Okay ma'am. Goodnight." I greeted as I wanted to go.
She didn't ever reply.
Oh!!! I have forgotten I wanted to tell her something.
"Ma..." I was cut off by her call.
So I will have to wait for her to finish calling.
"What!!! I'm in my office right now, come quickly," She shouted.
What could be happening?
"What are you still doing here?" She queried.
"Yes ma'am, it is about a girl who..." I couldn't complete my sentence as someone came inside the room .
It was the man who I kicked his groin for molesting me the other time.
My boss stood up immediately and she saw the man and she bowed her head.
"You!!!" He shouted pointing at me.
He left the door and came to the middle of the room.
He looked as if he was still in pain due to the way he walked.
I should have kicked it very hard so that he wouldn't be able to walk anymore.
"Do you guys know each other? " My boss asked.
"She's the one I was talking about the one who kicked me," He complained and I just rolled my eyes.
"We are sorry sir, she will be punished for it," My boss replied to her and I just looked at her in surprise.
"Punished for what, he molested me ma'am," I retorted and she hissed.
"Is there anything special about your body?" She questioned and I was surprised by what she said.
"He's going to pay you a lot of money, he is one of your big customers here. VIP...don't you know Mr.Hernandez that every girl wants to meet." She persuaded
Really?
She can't tell me what to do with my body.
This woman knows what she is doing, even though I slept with this man and he paid me, I'm very sure she is going to collect half of the money.
Is she really talking about my body?
It is my body and not hers.
"Yes ma'am, my body is special and no one is allowed to molest me," I replied and she smirked.
"Special,l my foot, you look like those girls who I do sleep with.." The man replied and this is really making me get angry.
I have issues with my temper and I can do anything when I get angry!!!
"I'm sorry man but you deserved what you got," I told him the truth.
"s*x is only what I want and I'm going to pay you!!!" He begged.
"Mr. Hernandez, You are really shameless, you pervert. You don't have shame, go look for other girls at the bar but literally I'm not cheap," I blurted out.
"And you too ma'am, you shouldn't behave like this, you are matured for god's sake. I'm very sure you must have slept with countless men when you were young, but let me make something clear to you. I'm not like you. You slut." I released the anger that was in me finally.
I already had it in mind that I am jobless once again.
Maybe I should just release all my anger.
"The only person I pity here is your husband. He doesn't know the type of woman he married, he doesn't know you are still sleeping with men now!!!" I told her the greatest secret and she was astonished.
She must be wondering how I found out about it, that is a story for another day.
"You are rude, proud and I don't know what I can use to describe you but you are the worst" I said to her face.
"And I really need my money, I need to pay the people I owe money tomorrow so I can't wait," I told her but there was no response.
I guess she must still be surprised at what I said.
I've been looking towards this day whereby I will have to say my mind and tell her the truth.
The truth is bitter and she may not want to accept it.
"Your pay? Forget about it and as of today you are no longer working here" She informed me and I just nodded my head.
I wasn't surprised because I was expecting it though.
I gave the pervert a deadly glare and with the facial expression he doesn't look as if he regretted what he did.
"Thank you ma'am, I had a good time working with you," I said as I left the room.
I went to the place where I serve several customers as I saw my partner there already.
I packed my load as I dropped the dress we bartender was wearing.
My partner kept on looking at me as I packed everything.
"Aren't you supposed to be at home now? " She asked and I just sighed in frustration.
"I'm fired. " I broke the news and she was shocked.
I guess she didn't expect me to leave earlier since she knelt about the s**t I'm going through.
"Are you kidding me?" I guess she was still finding it hard to believe.
"No, I'm not," I replied.
I felt my burden became heavier since I'm the breadwinner of the family and now that I have lose my job.
"Bye." I told her as she gave me a hug. It was only for few seconds
I bent down to continue parking my belongings.
I realised what my anger has cost me and I couldn't help but to regret.
I hated this day, thinking about what I have been through was not helping, tear drops fall from my eyes.
I took one whiskey from the bar shelf as I carried my bag and opened the whiskey.
"Excuse me" I said as I was walking amidst the crowd that were partying as they parted ways for me.
I drank more of the whiskey as I walked out.
"I'm sorry..." I said as I bumped into someone.
I was kind of tipsy already.
The person's chest was really hard, I looked up to see my person but it was really blurry.
He tried moving, but I pulled him back and placed my head on his chest.
"Just stay that way," I begged.
"Ma'am please excuse me" He said coldly which made me more angry
