The sun's going down,heralding the beginning of another night,my time of the day.Turning over in my bed,I feel tempted to shut my eyes and go on sleeping,but I've got bills to pay,responsibilities to fulfill,ive gotta take care of myself,there are drinks to be drunk and men to be seduced.So, I don't think I'm going back to sleep.
Looking across the room,I spy my roommate's bed empty.Only then do I realize the shower has been running for a while now. This girl intends beating me to the street tonight but I'm not worried,there's more than enough to go around,plus I've got the goods,the real goods.
Two hours later and I'm good to go.My roommate left about half an hour ago. Looking in the mirror,I know that were I a guy, I'd want to meet this version of me. I've got the looks,the body and the packaging to turn any man's head and I know it does more than that.Grabbing my purse from the drawer, I lock the room,dropping the key under the drum of water outside. Leaving the compound,I stroll down to our pick up joint,a side street two blocks away.Guys come here,and make their choices from the girls around.
I arrive early so I'm able to secure a spot beside one of the two street lamps there.We actually bought them among ourselves,to ensure customers see what we have to offer.The night is just beginning so I've got some time on my hands to kill.
I came into town a couple of years ago searching for a job,whatever job.Well I got my wish,as this job found me,eventually.Trekking all over town,from one company to another nobody was hiring,f from one house to the other,they kept saying no jobs.Lookibg back now, I think some of the women thought I'd threaten their marriage.
I was on the verge of packing my bags back home when some girls stopped me on the road one day and asked why I let walking "up and down" everyday.I spoke with them,got to know them and they brought me here.
Initially,I had sleepless days over the things I did at night,but my disabled mother has to be taken care of,my younger ones have to be fed,clothed and sent to school.S o here I stand every day,waiting for men;some old enough to father me;to come,look us over and pick whoever meets their fancy to do all manner of things to.
Where it possible for anyone who knew me back at home to see me now,they'd be shocked. I, the girl who was always forming holy holy back then,am now worse than most of them.But I play my games carefully,and pray to never be seen by any of them,either here or in a compromising position.
I've got a nice sweet guy back at home,Darey,who sends me money whenever I fib that I'm strapped of cash.He also assists my family, buying food and paying some of their bills when I'm not up to it.He tells me he is serious about me,and recently I heard he has got a lucrative job.I plan to make some money here,and then abandon this crazy lifestyle of mine,to be with Dates.So you see,I've got plans.
Guys are arriving,some in their cars,others just strolling in.Inside car oo,with your leg oo,all that concerns me is the money.Show me you've got it and I'm good to go. Four cars just drove in and I think they are together.They all look flashy and they are parking close together which just happens to be a bit a short distance from me.
All these girls have already crowded around them so I'm just gonna wait for my grand entrance.About six guys in all come out but it seems one of them is not interested in what we've got to offer.I can see the other guys trying to convince him, the girls only too willing to help.His back is to me,but it does look familiar.Maybe he is one of my previous clients.
Seems none of the girls have what it takes to shake this guy so I guess this is my grand entrance.Wish me luck!
Cat-walking over,I immediately catch their attention.I've got what they need and I make sure they realize that as I walk over.The guy who has been aloof sees all his friends staring my way over his shoulder and he turns around too.I quickly throw a smile I know has never failed to win me clients before.
Imagine my discomfort when I read disdain from his posture.Taking a good look at him,I'm about turning on the works when I discover my life just took a turn for the worse for right in front of me,staring at me in my negligible attire is the guy who wants to make me his, Darey!
Thanks for reading this far,I just got this idea to write on different groups of people who stay active at night,the good and the bad ones.So please I'd love your feedback about this write-up.
Love y'all
