Chapter One
It was a bright new morning my bed squeaked as I got up
After taking my bath I pulled out a black crop top and a baggy jean and a white sneakers
I went down stairs I met mom sprawled on the ground snoring away yuck she reeked of alcohol and cigarettes
Well its not a new thing I thought in my mind as I shook my head in disgust
I made for the dresser to take the money I kept there last night but I couldn't find it
"Shit" I cursed under my breathe
I walked angrily towards my mom and shook her
" Mother "!!!
Her eyes flickered open
" What is it this time "
" Did you take any money from the dresser?? "
"Yes I did " she replied un concerned
" What's wrong with you that money isn't mine " I half yelled
" Oh stop making a big fuss I just needed some money to buy me a drink"
Oh God how will I pay Derrick his money
Forgive my manners I'm Ava Gonzales
The last child of my parents
My Elder sister maria is married and living somewhere in Chicago with her family
Father is a big time gambler and a drunk, mother is no different from him
I'm just 20 years I barely finished high school
I had to engage in dirty works just to survive
I do deliver chicken daytime and at night I dance as a stripper at the local club
I glanced over at mom as she went back to sleep
With tears in my eyes I stomped angrily out of the house and hoped on my scooter over to Derrick's place
********* ******** *******
I got to Derrick's place as usual it was filled up with people smoking, drinking and gambling
I made my way through the crowd ignoring the looks of men gawking at me, as usual derrick was smoking away at the corner flanked by his body guards and two women romancing him on the chest
Derrick
What brings you here Ava
" Oh hi Derrick I was wondering if I could see you privately "
" Say what you wanna say young lady I've got no time for silly talks "
Talking about Derrick he was the owner of the largest pub houses in Mexico we've been friends for a while now and if there's anything Derrick doesn't joke with its his money
Few days ago I lent some money from him and yesterday I got the money to payback but mom took the money
" I'm waiting " he growled impatiently jolting me out of my thoughts
" Errm.... Your money I'll bring it tonight something came up "
I watched as his face changed
" Tonight you said "
I nodded
" I'll be waiting "
I thanked him and made my way outta there
By the time I got to work it was late already
" Good day Mrs Sanchez "
" What's good about today "Ava she yelled angrily at me
"You were supposed to be at work by 9am and now its 11: 30,you're so un serious "
" I'm so sorry Mrs Sanchez I promise it won't happen again "
" I'm sorry Ava but you're fired "
"WHAT!!!!!!! "
I slowly turned back and drove back home in rage
As I neared home I could hear noise from our home
It could be mom and dad at it again
I was right they were at each others throat again
I watched them from a distance as I shook my head in disgust as I went up stairs and cried out my eyes
Most times I considered suicide but that wasn't a better option because I knew I don't have a future
My elder sister has forgotten she has a family because of the kind of family she found herself
EVENING TIME
I woke up feeling alot better glancing up at the clock it was 7pm already I need to prepare to go to the club house
I made my way into the bathroom and cleaned up
I wore my previous outfit today and packed a skimpy skirt and a see through tank top into the a sling bag
I met mother in the kitchen preparing dinner
"Ava where are you off to by this time of the night "
None of your business " I replied and walked out ignoring her calling me
When I got to the bustop I flagged a taxi
" Avila club house please "
" Sure ma'am "
I entered the back with two other men at my side all dressed in black looking like grim reapers
" So you're going to the club house miss"
" Yes " I replied nervously
The other man placed his hands on my thighs and began stroking it
" Excuse me sir "
" Oh don't tell me you don't like it "
" Pls sir drop me here "
But the driver chuckled evilly and swerved into a dark alley
