Selling Herself To The Devil (2)

AT THE DOCTOR'S OFFICE... 

I...I don't have that amount of money with me now, Doctor please am in a little crisis , can you begin the operation on her now? I would make sure to get the money before you could think of it...." Ida pleaded after hearing the huge amount the doctor had called. 

"We are giving her the best doctors who would operate on her Ms Schaeffer, doctors do have sympathy and are pained when we see our patient not recovering, so that is why we want to do our best Ms Schaeffer, a brain surgery is not something you could easily cure with pills. We can't start the surgery until her bills are fully paid, you have today and tomorrow to pay the bills." 

"Damn it, damn every fvcking person who put me into this crazy situation " She screamed, as she harshly hits the doctor's desk. 

The doctor was shocked, watching the lady leave his office angrily. 

Immediately Ida left the hospital, she began looking for band groups, talking to managers of other new groups, but no one accepted her. 

"Just fvck everything!" She screamed in one of the train stations, as she frustratedly kicked into the air, her breathing hurried, before tears trickled down her eyes, which she cleaned immediately. 

A train stops in front of her, which she boarded immediately. 

*.         *.         *. 

"You are a crazy girl, a stripper, how much do you think we get after flaunting everything to this rich stingy men, or after dancing, twisting, twerking, and doing everything just for thirty dollars, babe you can't manage" Ida nodded, feeling miserable, as her friend tried talking her out from being a stripper. 

"Am desperate Raya, am desperate!" 

"The DNGirls did you dirty, but I thought you've sought it out...Wait, why do you want to become a stripper when you have that luxury king" Raya, was ida's friend, not close friends. She used to be a stripper for the DNGirls, before she quit, moving to another city in Texas. 

"Luxury King?" 

"Yes, Corbin, baby, Corbin , your husband, his he stingy to the extent he can't help his wi...." 

"We are not married Raya, he just helped me" 

"I don't think that man is known for helping somebody, what are his intent? You had fvcked him right?" 

"Oh God! Can you stop asking this crazy question " Ida pushed her hand through her hair frustratedly. 

"Am trying to help you, I have an idea, why don't you try seducing him again, and when you have the chance to be with him again, drug him, then ask for his bank password... Babe, we would be ri...." 

"Fvck you!" Ida shoved her middle finger into Raya's face before angrily walking away. 

"It's just advice, take it serious babe, and you would get to slap those assholes DNGirls with real filthy money" Ida could hear Raya's shouting. 

After leaving Raya's, she went to possible people who she believed could help her, but it all ended in promise when tomorrow was the deadline. 

MORNING.... 

"Just hear me out doctor, please can you extend it to tomorrow or maybe next, am trying my best to get the money trust me," Ida said, running after the doctor who didn't reply her. 

"You have two hours left Ms Schaeffer," The doctor said before disappearing into a patient's room. 

"You fvcking doctors behave like some demi-god" she yelled again, with other patients watching her like she had gone crazy. 

She needed to visit a psychiatrist after she finds a way to save her cousin because she was going crazy as minutes passed. 

An idea suddenly popped up in her head, the one which made her almost lose her sanity 'There was no other option than to sell herself to the devil, Corbin Reid, she has promised her aunty to do anything, anything' 

She was nobody, without a band. Even if the ill news about her had been cleared she was still a nobody, so there is nothing to lose. 

Getting to her hotel room, she turned the room upside down searching for the card he had given her, until she remembered she had disposed it, into the trash can, which the hotel workers had emptied. 

"No please!" She cried checking the wall clock, she had 1hr 2 minutes left. 

She couldn't go asking the workers where they had emptied the trash, or why they had emptied it in the first place. 

Bringing out her laptop, she searched 'Corbin Reid' on a search engine, hoping she would find little information about him, maybe his number, or how to get to one of Reid's companies. 

Finally, a ray of hope flashed through her seeing one of his house addresses, where people could meet him, for business only. 

REID'S VILLA... 

Corbin was in the shower when the telephone in the bathroom began to ring. 

He walked to it "Sir, it's a woman, she insisted she needed to see you, we had tried sending her off, but she wouldn't, she d...." 

"What is her name?". 

"She said she is the lady you...uhm y...". 

"What did she say?". 

"Ra..raped". 

"Let her in" Corbin bit his lips, after he hung up, going under the shower again.

Ida was offered a sit in the luxurious sitting room, but she declined the maid's offer, clenching her hand tightly, not believing she would one day have to stoop this low. 

"Miss Schaeffer!!" He smiled walking down the stairs in pants trousers, and a shirt, with the first three buttons left undone. 

"Have your seat!" He offered and she did, watching him also take his sit on the couch. 

"About the offer Mr. Reid" She bit her lips averting her gaze for a while, before looking back at him again, gulping "I accept, but on one condition, My little cousin is in a dire situation, and if you can help her before 20 minutes runs out, I would do whatever you want me to do" 

"Do you know what you are getting yourself into Miss Schaeffer!!" 

"Whatever it is, it won't hurt than losing one's family" 

"You would be mine till you take your last breath! A property " 

"Yes" 

"You would do whatever I want you to do, even when it comes to pleasuring me," He said straight. 

"I would do anything!"
