Asia didn’t recognize the number, but after texting and letting Asia know she’d lost her phone, her friend still hadn’t responded. With only a hundred dollars left to her name, Skye was beyond worried, especially since they only had enough money for one more night in the hotel, and she couldn’t use her credit or check cards for fear of Sandino finding them. Something wasn’t right and Skye prayed that Sandino hadn’t gotten to Asia before she got her cash.
We’ve gone over the plan a thousand fucking times and now this bitch doesn’t wanna call back , Skye thought. Now, we gotta stay in this dump . Skye thought then looked around. The T.V. only gets six channels, the shower drain was clogged, and the doors aren’t secure .
“We’re at least supposed to be up in a Hyatt or Westin,” Skye mentioned to herself.
After laying down for a few hours, Skye decided to get up and walk around outside to gather her thoughts since all the kids were asleep. As rowdy as they’d been since she checked in, Skye hoped they stayed asleep for the rest of the night. She needed time to herself. She had to get a game plan together although she had no idea what step to take first. Pacing back and forth with her mind focused on her children’s well-being, Skye suddenly bumped into a tall, slender girl with a hideous pink wig on. As soon as the girl looked up to say, ‘excuse me’, she immediately noticed the concerned look on Skye’s face.
“Are you okay?” the fake Nikki Minaj girl asked.
“Yes, I’m fine.” Skye quickly turned her head.
“You don’t look fine,” the woman replied. “What are you doing out here all alone? If I were you, I would go back inside. This isn’t the best neighborhood for a woman to be walking alone.”
Skye appeared even more concerned, but didn’t respond.
The woman extended her hand. “Hi. My name is Ivy. I’m in the room next to you. I saw you and your kids when you came in. If you don’t mind me asking, what’s a pretty woman like you doing in a place like this?”
“I’m just passing through,” Skye said, wondering why she was all up in her business.
“You look like you running from something to me.”
Skye looked at her wondering how she could tell that she was on the run.
“Like I said, I’m just passing through,” Skye reiterated
“Well, if you need anything just holla. I’m usually around all day, but I leave by ten o’clock to go to work. I strip at the club called, Babes down the street,” Ivy pointed.
Well, that explains that crazy-ass wig , Skye thought. “You don’t look like a stripper,” Skye said, eyeing the girl’s slim frame. She didn’t have tits or an ass.
“Yeah, never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever be doing this, but I do what I have to do to put myself through school. I’m a senior at Spellman, and tuition ain’t cheap. Not to mention, I have a daughter to take care of. My little girl is all I have, so I don’t regret shaking my ass for cash to make sure we survive. A mother will do whatever she has to for her child.”
“That’s so true,” Skye agreed.
Ivy eyed Skye’s well-defined figure. “You’re a pretty thing; you could make a lot of money down there working at the club with me.
Skye shot Ivy a crazed looked. “Oh, no. I don’t think so.”
“Well, if you’re ever interested I could always hook you up. Two of our girls left last week anyway, so we need some fresh meat. You could make enough in one night to get yourself and your kids away from this place. You don’t belong here baby.”
“No thanks, I could never dance in front of a bunch of strange men,” Skye replied.
“Okay, but let me know if you change your mind!” Ivy shouted as Skye turned around and walked away.
After getting back to the room, Skye continued to pace around as thoughts of her now hundred dollar life savings entered her mind. There was no way four people were going to survive with that little bit of money. Getting
