“Mumiti” I yell as I wake up with sweats all over my body. I thought the dream stopped already; why do I have the plan again “You okay?” Susan asks. I must've freaked them out.
“Yeah, I'm fine, thank you." I replied, but she looked at me closely like she was trying to figure out why I woke up screaming. I grabbed my towel and headed straight to the bathroom. My hands were shaking as I was trying to turn the tap on. I managed to turn it on, and I was still breathing loudly, the pictures from my dream kept popping up in my head.
“Jane, you'll be fine, calm down," I say to myself. After some seconds, my strained muscles were loosed, and I was calming down already.
After my bath, I grabbed a pair of jeans, trousers and a t-shirt. I'll look for a dancing job today. I could hear my dad's voice saying, “Don’t do it," but it's my passion, so I'm doing it.
“I'l be right back" I say to my roommates as I step out.
Some days ago, I saw a job for a dancer at a local club. I know it could be as a stripper, but I don't care right now; I'll quit if I see any better job.
I entered my car and imputed the location into my Google map as I followed it. It is about an hour from where Iam, so I thin I have more than enough time to cool off my nerves.
I'stopped my car at the location where my map showed me. I got out of my car after ensuring I parked it well.
I walk towards the heavily guarded door by two huge men who must be the bodyguards.
“Hi I say to them. None of them answered me, and didn’t even glance at me.
“I'm here for the job interview," I say. They both looked at me in unison and opened the door for me.
“Ask for the master,” one with a huge tummy replied.
“Oh, okay, thanks," I say as I walk in.
The place looks expensive, and I'm sure a random person can't dine here because everyone I set my eyes on is in expensive clothes, the men in tuxedos and the women in hot dresses. I saw a waiter passing by and stopped him.
“Hi, I'm sorry, I'm looking for the master,” I say
“Follow me,” he says; I notice the accent he spoke with. Okay, I think everyone here is a kind of classic person.
“Will I be given the job!iz” I say in my mind as I panicked. I should have worn a gown rather than some T-shirts and a jean. The waiter knocked on the door twice and gestured for me to go in. I entered the room and was struck by the conc smell of cigarettes. No, this isn't a cigarette; it must be a weed.
“Good morning, sir” I greet the man sitting in front of me, performing tricks with the smoke coming out from his mouth. “What are you here for," he asks
“For the job, sir, I'm a dancer, I say while staring at my legs.
“Look at me," he says, and I immediately looked straight at him.
He surveyed me from head to toe.
“Maria,” he calls
Awoman immediately rushed into the room facing down.
“Fix her,” he instructs.
Maria told me to follow her, and we walked past the main hall into a room, she asked “How old are you dear.”
“I'm twenty, I replied while she started to fix my hair.
“You look beautiful,” she said, and I smiled.
“You look elegant too, Maria,” I say to the woman whose cheeks are now flushed. I laughed.
In no time, Maria was done fixing me up, and spraying some cologne on me. I loved the smell, but I'm sure that shit would b 50 expensive.
I stared at myself in the mirror and wondered if it was me; I looked so different and hot, like one of those classical British ladies.
“Follow me; it's time,” Maria says
“Time for what?" I ask
“To dance,” she says.
She led me to the stage, and suddenly, it was like I w
as in a movie. The lights went off, and there was a spotlight on me with the crowd staring at me. I got this.
The pianist started to play a Melody that looked more like ocean eyes than there was me and a pole on the stage. I began to dance to the rhythm planned by the pianist, and then everyone took me seriously. Different eyes were on me, the ones fillec with admiration, excitement, love, and lust, but these things didn't bother me as I continued to dance and move around the poll till the music stopped. Then, there was applause from different people for me, and I saw my master at the extreme of the hall staring at me with a smile.
After the performance, I was told the master wanted to see me, so I went to his office.
I knocked twice before entering.
“You did well, kid," he says
“Thank you, sir" I reply
“How much do you want to be paid?” He asks.
Holy shit, did he just ask me that question?222 Am in a dream?772.... I'm so excited, and I'm smiling like an idiot rn.
“Or do you want to work for free?” He says, “What's taking you so long to respond?” he adds.
I smiled. “A thousand dollars, sir,” I say
He looked at me and smiled.
“Okay,” he says. F**k did he just say okay!
“4 nights every week, Wednesday, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, you can not be late or absent, and you start today night," he says
“Yes, sir"
“You can go now,” he says, “But you start at 6 pm today,” he adds.
I left for the room in which I had changed my clothes earlier to change back into my clothes. I happily left the club and drov my way back to my room.
On getting to the door, I heard a slight moan inside my room. What the f**k is wrong with my roommates. I'm glad I got a job today. I'll rent an apartment with my first pay.
I was about to knock before entering the room, but then it was also my room, so I opened the door and saw Susan on her bed, covered with her sheets, masturbating. I'm tired of these roommates already. She didn't even know that I opened the door not until some minutes later before she saw me on my bed and stopped whatever she was doing.
“Oh, you're back,” she says with a sign of shame in her voice
“Yeah..some minutes ago,’ I reply without looking at her.
I checked my phone for the time, and it's just noon. I should maybe sleep a little, then eat and go to work. The thought of m, knowing I already have a job made a smile creep into my lips.
I'got to my new workplace and entered excitedly; the bodyguards opened the door as I was getting closer to the door. “Thank you, I say to them with a smile. They didn’t reply; maybe they didn't like to talk.
I went to the dressing room, and saw Maria already waiting for me there. I quickly changed into a new dress. It's different from the one I wore in the morning.
“They are a lot of people here tonight; this club is crowded when it's night; can you handle it?” She asks
“Yes, I believe,” I answered, and she smiled.
The lights went off again and the spotlight was on me, the pianist started to play a Melody but then there were gunshots everywhere and for the first time in my life I saw a dead person that was shot by a real gun right in front of me and in some few seconds there was chaos everywhere with men falling and dying then a man with tough hands and a gun in his hands dragged me away from the stage. I could see other females being removed too. I was trying to break free from his bondage, but he cocked the gun and pulled the trigger
