Huh, no one can stop me. I am going to see it again tomorrow.
“Make it fast! I already seeing a lot of hot me outside.”.
“Don’t you want to try dance pole? The salary there is much more higher that being a waitress.” He said while getting the boodle in his nose.
“You’re just going to dance like a worm.” He said while laughing.
“No, I’ll just find a sugar daddy. Huh, easy money, right?” Brilliant idea.
“Ay! That’s great!, sis!. You have brain. I’ll help you find.” Excitement showed in his eyes.
“Then, share your blessing, okay?. Don’t forget about me.”
“Yes, sissyly. I’ll make you my maid.” I answered as I walk out of the room.
I look at the ground. It's too early, why there’s already many customers? I feel tired seeing these wild animals.
“Hey, make it fast. The place become crowded in any moment.” One of my co-worker told when he passed in front of me while holding a two trays in her both hands.
I did my work, I focus serving for three hours and someone approach me.
“Sis,can you bring this in the VIP room number on three and eight?” She pulled me in a one side when no one’s and she showed me a small thing covered in a white plastics. What’s this thing? A powder? This is like a coffee mate amount of one dollar.
“Where is that? I thought my work is only in the ground floor??” I'm having doubts and besides I am not familiar with the VIP’S room numbers. If I’m not mistaken there’s a code in every room.
I haven’t accepted it when he get my right and put that white thing in my palm. Why she’s in a hurry?
“Give that in that room, okay? I’m in hurry, my son is in in the hospital. I badly need to go home.” She’s said while her eyes is roaming a the bar. She’s acting weird.
I feel pity for her.
“Okay, okay, I’ll take care of your work, Guk.” I smiled at her to assures her.
“okay, thanks a lot.” She smiled guilty on me.
She left me and I started that room number when suddenly people started to panicked, scream and run.
Everyone is shouting in horror and I saw a men holding gun in their both hands.
“Miss, don’t move if you don’t want to get hurt.” A handsome young policeman said to me and he handcuffed me. What’s happening? I didn’t do anything.
“What are you’re holding, huh?!” He shouted at me and get from my hands that powder.
I was feeling shocked to what’s happening. Why he is arresting me? And what’s really happening? Why there is policemen around the bar?
My brain process what’s happening.
“Brother! Brother! Brother Kienzo!”
“What do you need?” He puts down his phone and he look at the young boy who looks like him, he is walking towards his direction.
“Who’s with you?” Kienzo asked blankly. He is busy with his phone.
“Where’s brother? I didn’t see him in his office.” He said and sat in front of him.
Kienzo raised his left eyebrow when he saw that he’s holding a car key.
“Why did you drive Klye? You can’t drive a car alone. You’re just thirteen years old. You don't have a driver's license.” He said firmly.
“Duh, what is the point of having siblings that are lawyers and what’s the point of having a car if we don’t use it?” He reasoned while hiding the car’s key.
“I’ll call mom. I’m gonna tell her that you use the car.” He threaten him.
“Hey! I was joking. I'm here because I am fetching you.”
Kyle put his feet on the center table. A milk tea si with him. His favorite drink.
“I am busy.” Kienzo answered abruptly.
Kyle glared at his brother Kienzo, “why you’re always busy? Brother Enzo is the only one visited us. You just get married you forgot about us and besides, mom wants to see your wife. You had been hiding her from us! They already miss her and you. They are expecting a grandchild to you… Mom is always talking about you and she always scold me too! She talks and nag a lot. I can get a woman pregnant yet she always humiliate me!.” Kyle complaints to his brother Kienzo while making a long face.
This time Kienzo raise his eyebrow, “Really? You’re following our orders and you’re not listening us too, then you’re telling me that you can get a woman pregnant? I am against to your love life but finish you school first. Get a degree before getting a girlfriend, Kyle.” Kienzo advised him, that’s what he did.
Kienzo stops from what he is doing and face his young brother seriously.
Kienzo gives him a tissue when he splits some milk tea in his mouth.
“Bro, let’s go home!.” He whined.
“I’ll go home but not now.” Kienzo answered shortly and looking in a different directions.
“You’re always saying not now.” Kyle complaints again and drink on his milk tea. He’s hoping that someday someone is gonna sponsor him with a lot of milk tea’s just like his another brother Keran.
“Where’s brother Enzo? He have debts one me, one hundred dollars, until now he is not paying me.” He chew the pearl loudly.
“I don’t know Kyle. Maybe he meet a client.” He shrugged.
Kieno didn’t do of his works and his little brother keeps on ranting on him until they his work ended and he keeps on pursuing him to visit them.
“Bro, C’mon, say yes! It seems we’re not a. I’ll borrow you a PS4 that dad bought for me.” Kyle cover his mouth when he realized what he spilled. “Oops!don’t tell mom that dad bought me a new PS4, okay? Or else the mountain will explode again.” He said while giggling. He looks happy with his new gadgets.
They are exiting the building.
“Take care going home, attorney!.” One of a employee recognize Kienzo.
He just smiled at them as a response.
“Bye!” Kyle is the one who answered and he gave her a flying kiss and the employee laughs.
Kenzo stops walking and faces his little brother, “you told me that Enzo is sleeping there. Why do you want me to sleep there, huh? I’m handling a new case and I can’t go today.” Kienzo explains to him.
Kyle put his both hands on hsi waist and he look at his brother, “Enzo didn’t go home yesterday and devil is not there too! They both didn’t go home. I don’t have someone to play with, i got bored.” He looks pity and he made his face sad.
“I’ll drive you home.” Kienzo sai with finality on his voice and he got his car key when they are already on the parking lot of th Velasco firm but Manong Rodger came in the scene.
“Sir.” Manong Rodger called him.
Rodger showed him a video and Kienzo reacted while watching it, he clenched his fist.
“Manong Rodger, drive him home.” He stated and furiously rode his car. What a trouble maker woman.
--
I am bowing my head while a mean woman asking me a questions. She’s so mean asking a questions. What she think of me an addict? I am only addicted to that boring attorney.
“One of my acquaintance gave me that, okay? I don’t know that, that was a drug. My conscience is clear and I’m not lying ” I explain with full of patience and respect. She keeps on insisting where did I get that and I am an addict. She can teste me if she wants.
“If you want, drug test me so you will be believe.” I am confident.
“You are holding a drugs, and you’re reasoning. I am used to those reason,, miss.” She glared at me again and angrily released the ballpen.
She’s getting out of patience towards me. She keeps on answering and I am playing with her with my answer. She can’t dig deeper on me because I know nothing. I am innocent.
I am not the only one they get and most of the people with me are customers.
That bar is a half illegal. Doing illegal business, maybe that’s why that bar is too huge and wide and look exclusive.
I also called attorney to ask a help from him.
“As you say so, wait for my attorney to come.” I said with full of proud.
“Kiki!” I called his name when I saw him talking to a policeman with a big tummy.
I came to their location but that woman followed me and stops me, she is so mean. Don’t she have a boyfriend to coax her? She is ugly in my eyes, she looks dora with her small hair and color blonde that does not suit her. Her eyebrow are also looks fake even her earings. She looks fake. Jokie!
“Let’s go.” Kienzo said and he hold me on my pulse and pulled me out of that place. He is holding me like a child. Psh!
Before I turn my back and leave that place, I look at that small woman with bad breath and I stock out of my tongue. I told you! I have a genius and lawyer husband, influential lawyer.
He open the door of his car and I slide in and until we got home he didn’t speak. I know he is silent all the time but his silent gave me a heart attack. I am feeling nervous about his silent. The atmosphere is not good.
When he park his yellow car he pulled me I almost out of balance and god he catch me.
“What are you doing, woman?” He let me sit on the sofa when we entered the condo. He is infront of me.
His lip became a thin line.
“Sitting?” I answered unsurely.
“Joke.” I get back my words when he didn’t laughs at my joke.
“What the hell are you doing there?” He asked me calmly and his jaw clenched.
“Working?” I answered as as him a question.
“Can you answer seriously?” He’s really serious.
“Why are you mad? Can I see the face of mad Kienzo?.” I’m teasing him and making fun of him.
“Did you think that bar is illegal and that’s the bar of addicts? Are you even aware of that?” His both hands are on his waist. He is looks a mom in that way, I giggled.
I really feel like my mom is scolding me.
“Yeah, I knew it a while ago.” I shrugged and find something to touch and play.
He sighed and massaged his temple.
“Did I allow you to work?” He narrowed his eyes on him.
“Can I see the face mad?.” I’m not making him serious.
Why he needs to be serious? He is giving me a uneasy feeling.
“I am not joking with you.” I felt, he is out of patience.
“Why are you mad?” I repeated. His eyebrow creased and his ears turn into red. He even clenched his jaw and fist.
He is glaring at me, “Eh, I need to work because I need to p--” I almost mention about my debts. He might think of me in a bad way, he will think that I am social climber if I said the truth, I don’t want him to mistaken me.
“There’s no wrong in working in a bar, ah. That work is clean. The bad is snatching, kidnapping and cheating.`” I explain to him. Kienzo needs me because he don’t understand the world, I need to explain the things to him. How can he be a lawyer? Tsk! He have a poor brain. Maybe, I must borrowed him my brain.
“I didn’t say that working in a bar is illegal. Are you listening to me? I asked you, if you know that bar is illegal?” He asked me as if I am a testimonial in court. I almost jumped jumped when he raise his voice at me.
“No, but you’re saying different, it's like you want to say in that way, “ I look around to avoid his gaze, I am making excuses, why no one updated that he is scary when asking a questions?, “and, That’s why I worked there because I need a money, a lot of money to pay you, and I also need a shelter, I haven’t called to the companies that I applied..” I breath. Why do I need to explain everything to him? Lord, give ma work. I promise to be a good beautiful lady.
