I'd usually sit in the condo and shop online or eat everything in sight. That was half of my day. The other half would be convincing men that I was the best they could ever have. And I was. Untouchable is how I described myself. Padre agreed. A few days after the auction party I wasn't working as much because we had new girls. I hadn't even spoken to the girls yet. I just decided to relax, make at least 300 bucks & call it a day.

One day Padre stormed in the room I was in, talking on his phone. He seemed upset so I just looked at him and looked right back at the tv screen. "Alright! You want it taken care of, it's done!

He's gotten a few of his guys to rob my old spot and I need to get it back." "So what do I need to do?" I asked him. "They're having a celebration at this club called Club OD. I need you to dance for him in a private area so my guys can take him out. Can you do this for me?" "Yeah I guess. I'll just need a good nap before then. Tomorrow right?" I stood up and took my bowl to the kitchen sink. "Tonight, 9 o'clock." I turned around quickly. "Tonight? Baby nooo, I wanted to relaaaaaxxx!" "You've relaxed enough Imani! You haven't even been working that much lately." I tilted my head and walked towards him, "But babyyyy.." He stood up, "No buts, be ready by 8:30." He kissed my cheek and walked out of the room. "Ugghhhhh!" I fell back on the couch and covered my face with a pillow.
