After quitting my job, I spent three good days indoor. I am demoralized and depressed. I know I need to get out and get another plan to make money, but I suddenly lose my strength and focus. My dream of becoming a famous designer suddenly become unrealistic.
While I’m in bed my room mate, Rose, comes in after her day. Rose studied human resources and works with a popular company in the city. We met while I was in fashion school and she in Uni.
We became friends because she needed someone to make her a dress for a party. I did it free for her given that she assist with my fashion school written assignment. We bonded after that and eventually decided to share an apartment.
“Don’t tell me you are again in bed all day” Rose says after seeing me still lying-in bed. Seriously speaking, I didn’t know time has gone that much. “Sofia, you need to get your ass off the bed. You are doing yourself no good by drowning in sorrow” She pull away my duvet and I groan at the loss of warmth it gave me.
“This is so not you Sofie, You cannot just let someone walk over you. This is what Zena wanted. For you to be depress and eventually crawl back to her begging but my dear, you are not going to do that.”
I sit up on the bed and look at her sadly. “What am I suppose to do? I lost my job” She sit down beside the bed and hold my hands.
“You lost your job but not your talent my heart. You still have your head on your neck or did you leave it with Zena? Guess why Zena pays you?” I raise my brow at her question.
“Because of your talent. Babe you are talented, smart and most of all, you are beautiful. You've got the most beautiful ass in all of giddy” she appraise which get me laughing. Rose is somewhat obsessed with my backside right from when we met. She believes It have a beautiful shape. If I don’t know her better I would think she’s lesbian but in real life she loves d**ks.
“That’s more like it” She says when she sees me smile. “So I need you to get your ass off the bed and put those goodies of yours into use. Come-on” She stands up and starts to drag me off the bed.
“Rose it’s late, there is nothing I can possibly do at this time of the day.” I say
“That’s right. First, you have to meet people. I mean loaded, wealthy people. Rich people Sofia.”
“Oh yeah, where am I going to meet that kind of people?” I scoff.
“Definitely not while you are sleeping your ass on bed. I heard about this club from a colleague. It says it’s for wealthy class. I want us to go there” she says standing up making a sexy move. “Tonight! and I need you to look your best.” She winks pulling me towards the bathroom.
Rose believe in the myth that says partying cures sadness and she’s the best when it comes to partying. I love this about her but I seriously don’t see how partying will cure my sadness. What I need is for a miracle to happen and I have a job.

In an hour we were both set for the party looking all sparkling and beautiful. I chose a red dress that stops just above my knees and defines my curves in a moderate way. Not that I can hide myself if you ask me but I found a black waist jacket to conceal my figure.
“That’s what am talking about. You look so hot my heart” Rose say in appreciation of my beauty. “No man will be able to take his eyes off of you.”
“Rose, are we gonna meet people as potential client or some guy as a one night stand?” I asked looking almost angry.
“Of course potential clients but it wouldn’t hurt if you get laid after a very long time” she winks while I roll my eyes at her.
I know what she means. I haven’t been on a date in a very long time since my last boyfriend. Almost three years now. I've chosen to focus more on being successful rather than being in a relationship. If you ask me, it’s better and stress free. Moreover I think I will be needing more of focusing now that I don’t have a pay job.
We board a Uber ride to the club and it is further than we anticipate. The club is situated in a refined area totally for the wealthy class. It is dark but I’m still able to see through the darkness. The buildings are big and luxurious.
Outside the bar are luxurious cars parked at the parking lots. We get to the entrance and are stop by a bouncer. A really big bouncer.
“Passcode?” he ask which make Rose and I give each other a funny look .
“Do you know the passcode?” I whisper ask Rose but she shakes her head. I feel like hitting her on the spot.
“I wasn’t told there would be any.”
“Shut up! Maybe we should just give him a tip” I suggest but I look at the bouncer up and down and I don’t believe we have that money he will be willing to take.
“I said passcode?” comes the bouncer’s voice again. He is watching us whispering to each other all along.
“Don’t worry, I'll handle it” Rose finally whisper into my ears.
She looks up at his frown face and smile. I have an idea of what is going on in her head. She takes off her jacket and intentionally turned around so he can have a good glimpse of her curvy shape. She fake whisper something into my hear and I already decipher her plan. She turns around and immediately brush back her braids, so her cleavage is in full view.
I smiles at this. Rose knows her way of getting a man to do her wishes.
“Hi there” she begins. “I and ma friend here are just looking for a nice time. She just got this new job, so are looking for somewhere to celebrate and we heard about this nice club.” She says seductively, then she takes a risk of running her index finger through his muscular arm. “If you could please let us in without the passcode. We promise to behave.”
He look between the two of us as if deciding on what to do with us.
“Alrii! ” He finally says “Just because you two looks nice. I will let you in but don’t let me regret it”
She throws him a kiss while he move away from the entrance to let us in. I give Rose a high five and we walk through the short corridor.
Hanging on the walls are paintings of nudes, wines, and people partying. Slow music could be heard coming from the inside along with sound of people whispering and laughing.
When we eventually enters the club, it is truly cool compares to the other clubs I’ve been to. There are intricate light everywhere, outlining the whole place and there is a cheerful crowd with lots of group dancing on stage and there are chicks everywhere. Beautiful screaming rich.
At the far end is a booths filled group of guys, looking handsome surrounded by ladies that are wearing little close to nothing.
We moved towards the bar and I started to doubt the fact that I can mingle with these class of people. Rose was already taping her feet to the beats by the time me got to the bar.
“This place is so cool” she shout said while we stood at the bar.
I know what's going on in Rose mind and I can only watch in awe. In a nutshell, Rose is the best.
