DESPERATE SITUATION

...Sally...

How did I get here?, I would like to think I have always been a decent person. Determined to live a simple yet normal life but here I was, Dressed in an expensive little black dress (whose price was my two months house rent) that left little to the imagination. I was uncomfortable yet I had to keep a straight face,

'You got this Sally' I say to myself inwardly, People were Staring, especially men lustful at me, i couldn't blame them though, when you dress like a whore, you will surly be treated as one. I tried not to let that get into my way, the main reason I was here was for my sister, I had to do this, she had to live even if that meant me humiliating and selling myself like this.

My eyes scanned the crowded room, Big celebrities I had only seen on television where present, Models who looked like they had just walked out of a movie, and yes, Doctors. Famous Doctors specifically, The Crown Family.

A few years back, my little sister Rita and I lost our parents in a car accident, things where difficult for us after they died, I had to work three part time jobs, go to school and take care of Rita, I wasnt complaining though, As long as we were alive and happy, that's all that mattered to me. But then Rita got sick and things became worse for us. She had cancer and had to be in and out the hospital and now, she was on the verge of losing her life if she didn't under go an operation which was the reason I was here. A place I didn't belong looking for one man, Robert Crown.

"A drink from Lady Crown" A waitress said to me handing me a glass of wine, I took it and smiled awkwardly at her

"Thank you", my eyes continued to roam around the room until Finally, I saw him. My target Robert Crown, he was dressed in a black tuxedo. I must admit I was caught off guard as I didn't expect him to be this good looking in person. The grip on my glass cup tightened as I let out a sign, I was more nervous than I had ever been my entire life yet I tried to stay composed. The vibration of my phone brought me back to reality as I reached for it to check the message I had received, it was a strange number but immediately I read what was written, I knew it was Lady Crown.

I put my phone back in my purse and drank the wine in one go,

'Here goes nothing' I said and walked out of the room following the instructions written in the message.

A guard was waiting for me right at the door and led the way to an elevator, on the sixth floor of the building, the elevator stopped and the doors opened,

"You can wait in the room until Mr Robert Comes" the guard instructed, I nodded and walked off to the only room on the floor.

The room was pitch black with one light lamp on a table, The bed was neatly made with white beddings, I let out a deep sign and took a sit on the bed freeing my legs from the heels I was wearing,

How long was I supposed to wait until Robert came to meet me?, minutes, hours?, I didn't know and yet I couldn't ask anyone.

After what felt like forever, I finally heard the elevator open and quickly adjusted myself on the bed nervously, At that moment, I become more self aware and had the strongest urge to check myself in the mirror. Did my make up look okay was my dress just the right type to seduce him?. I had been confident before but wasn't anymore due to how nervous I was.

The door to the room opened and someone I assumed was Robert entered the room, the unsteadiness of his steps showed how drank he was as he walked in further the room closing the door behind. He screamed out when he noticed my presence tripping and falling to the floor, I just stood there not knowing weather to help him up or just stay still,

"What the fuck!, who are you?" He asked as he tried to stand holding the wall for support,

I let out a deep sign and stood up, I unzipped the dress I was wearing and let it fall to the floor,

Looking ahead with as much courage and determination as possible, my eyes met Robert's, now that he was close to the bed, I could see his face clearly, he looked confused amongst other emotions but all that didn't matter to me. His eyes lingered on my now half naked body,

"What are you doing?" He asked his gaze on my chest, I felt the sudden urge to cover myself, I had never been naked in front of a man before, it felt weird and scary, Did he like what he saw?, what if he turned me down would I lose Rita for good?, I had a lot of questions at the back of my mind

"What are you doing?" Robert repeated again, I closed my eyes for a brief second before taking steady steps towards him. This was it, the lowest moment I would ever subject myself to, I wanted to run, scream and push him away, Hell I even prayed this wasn't happening but thinking about Rita, her beautiful innocent face at the back of my mind made me stay composed,

I reached out to Robert and kissed him. Robert was stiff in the first few seconds of the kiss, I panicked and was about to pull away when he suddenly pulled me closer and took control of the kiss,

My body relaxed under his hot touch, maybe it wasn't going to be all bad after all. Robert carried me to the bed and laid on top of me, he paused to look in my eyes his face dangerously close to mine,

"Who the hell are you?" He whispered before resuming kissing me. Who I was or why I was doing this didn't matter, what mattered was for Rita to be okay I assured myself one last time as I gave in to his dangerous touch.
