Siya's pov
I took a deep breath in relief as I heard that Mr Mehrotra guests are gone. I mean they look like some dangerous people. And the way that man was staring at me, he literally throws me into the pit of uneasiness. It was very strange
I feel exhausted after serving them and other men in this club. So, I decided to ask Mark for an early leave. There is a terrible pain in my head and I don't think I'll able to ignore it for more time.
I go to mark's office and asked him. Thank god he agrees easily and told me to take a rest. I happily moved towards the changing room to remove this ridiculously tight and small dress.
I can breathe properly in this piece of fabric.
After changing my clothes I grab my bag and texted Minal to inform her about my early leave. So she won't worry.
As soon as I step outside a cold gush of wind hit my body. I shiver a little. Before leaving the club I booked a cab so I was waiting for it then suddenly a sleek black car stopped in front of me.
The window rolled down and I was kind of shocked to see the person inside the car.
It's the same dangerous, handsome Mehrotra's guest who was starting me back in the room. But why did he stop the car in front of me?
"get in" his deep masculine voice ordered leaving me shocked and confused, he didn't even look at me but order me to get in his car.
"no, my cab will be here, I don't need your ride" I quickly state after I recover from my shocking state and decline his offer of giving me a ride.
"I'm not giving you a ride and don't worry I'll pay you just tell me how much you charge," he said in arrogance as he steps out of his car and stands in front of me. I still couldn't understand what he was saying then suddenly the realisation of his words hit me with full force.
My heart beats become abnormal as his venomous offer registered in my brain. I am not a weak woman but still, my orbs were covered in tears. Tears of humiliation and anger.
How dare he?
I gather my courage and in anger, I raised my hand in the air...
SMACKKKKKK
I slapped him as hard as I can and his face moves a little to right.
"Just because I work in a strip club doest mean I'm a thing you can buy for your pleasure Mister and you wanna know how much I charge? Well, you are not rich enough buy me" I sneered my words at him while my eyes were shooting daggers at him.
He touches his cheek and slowly turns his face and at that moment I feel fear, all my courage and anger crumbled in a moment when he looked at me. his eyes were burning in rage making my heartbeat increase he looks like he will kill me my anger replaced by the terrifying feeling of what if he hurts me.
I clutched my bag closer to me and took some step back but he didn't move from his place so I run from there as fast as I can, I didn't look back, to see if he was following me or not but I got the feeling in my guts that he is not running after me.
I stopped when my legs start hurting and my breath becomes labour. I couldn't think straight and the dryness in my throats making it difficult for me to breath.
Luckily I spot a cab and called the driver to stop and get in and told him my address.
Tears blurred my vision as I think about that incident I'm not weak, my job is an invitation card for men to ask me to be their whore I am tired of all the lust-filled stares I get all the dirty comments and now a man asks me how much I cost. It's too much it's just too much.
......................................................................
I open the door of my house and welcomed by silence, Maa probably sleeping in her room while Rishi was snoring on the couch, I smile a little seeing his sleeping position, our house is not big enough to have our separate rooms
My mother health condition is not good she is diagnosed with heart disease and due to illness, she is weak. Her health is also a big reason why I work in that club I need money for treatment and surgery and with any other job her treatment, household expenses and other expenses will become harder to pay.
She used to be a teacher when my father died she became the bread earner of our family but when become sick I took the responsibility.
My brother gives tuitions, he didn't earn much but enough to manage the expenses of his education except for college fees. All the time I think of giving both of them a better lifestyle where he does not have to work right now to fulfil his basic needs and she gets surgery.
I walk silently to my room trying not to make any noise cause as I don't wanna disturb my brother's peaceful slumber.
I slowly open my bedrooms door and thank god it didn't make any noise, I walk inside and put my bag in who don't have any other place for this bag.
I change my clothes and lay on my small bed. I try to sleep my brain keep rewinding the incident, his disgusting words keep me awake for I don't know how long but the Last thing I remember was his anger, rage in his eyes before I doze off.
My peaceful sleep was disturbed by a knock, I open my eyes to see my mother standing in front of me smiling with a mug in her hand, coffee. Which she put on the small table in my room.
I smile still feeling sleepy but I get and hug her because I need it I need my mother right now I hug her for what like an eternity, she didn't ask me anything she just kisses my head and creases my hair.
I and my mother have this strange kind of thing between us like we don't say a single word but still, we understand each other's pain, frustration, sadness. we don't talk about it we just comfort each other.
"what do you want to eat for breakfast?" she asks
"surprise me"
She laughs a little and walks out of the room. Meanwhile, I took shower and wear my usual comfortable clothes.
I walk out of the and nice mouth-watering smell of food hit me, I look at the clock it's eleven o'clock which means Rishi is not home as usual.
I finish my breakfast and help my main daily chaos, as we can't afford a maid.
"Siya you know what? Sunaina was telling me about a vacancy in her school for a Hindi teacher and I get this job then you do not have to work in that club anymore. " and she goes again.
It's our daily routine, her convincing me to let her do a job and me explaining toher in the condition I will never let her work.
"ma you know I'm not going to leave this job and I'm not going to let you work, look at your condition your weak ma"
"my child you don't know what people say about you, Siya I'm your mother I can't hear those disgusting words they say" she cried, tears weld her eyes.
I wipe her tears and made her sit on the chair nearly and give her a glass of water after she drank it I took her hands in mine.
"ma listen to me" I make her look at me.
"ignore them, okay, judging others are their only work and what they say? Huh. That just because I work in a strip club then I have no character and no respectable person will marry me. Ma I don't need a respectable man to marry me I just want someone who understands me and love me and for whom me being a waitress in a strip club don't matter. " I squeeze her hand a little to assure that I don't care about what people think or say about me.
Their thinking is not going to pay my house rent, my brother's college fees, ma's medical expenses and other big expenses so I don't give fuck about what they 'think'.
"and by the way right now marriage is the last thing on my to-do list" I joke to lighten up her mood which luckily worked.
She playfully slapped me. "try to get married before your hairs turn grey as I seriously want to see my daughter as a young bride, some middle-aged women who get married to a bald man"
I dramatically gasp at her words and about to answer her but my phones ring stopped me.
I pick it up and saw it was Mark.
"Hello buddy," I said in my usual cheerful voice.
But my happiness died when I head His words, everything stopped, it took me a moment to recover from the shock my hands were trembling badly I grip the wall to prevent myself from falling.
"what?" I heard myself saying the most insane thing because I know what he said I just can't figure out why he said that.
"I'm so sorry Siya but you are fired, collect your money from me," he said and hung up.
