CHAPTER 2:. A deal to pop my cherry.

It was a Saturday morning and the sun shone brightly across the sky. The green grasses fluttered in the direction of the wind and everyone could be seen carrying on with their various activities.

Isabella roamed the street that morning, looking for who to reach for help. The street was so busy with people moving around and cars speeding at every chance. She took a stroll in the park and left for the zebra crossing so she could get to the other side of the road.

She was overwhelmed in a world of worry when she overheard the conversation of three ladies standing beside her.

One of them was dressed in a short black fitting sheath dress which exposed her tattooed thigh. Her honey brown hair swayed across her face and her protruding breasts could be seen with a conspicuous mole on it.

A Blondie beside her was dressed in a mini skirt with a striped pattern and a coat. The last lady with a black bob hair spoke more often as she chewed her gum, making a huge bubble and taking it back into her mouth.

"Guys! Guess what??" The Blondie on a coat broke the silence as they strolled together.

"What?" Her brown haired friend asked in a monotonous tone.

"I just got cool cash today!!" The Blondie revealed with a sigh of relief.

"Awwwn! That's awesome!"

"I know right. Thank you guys for introducing me to this. Just a night with Hudson and I'm getting a hundred thousand dollars!" Blondie exclaimed, bringing out the money from her pink bag.

"There's more babe! That's just a token."

"I know some stinking wealthy dudes and I can say, I have earned up to a million just for a night with them." The lady in a sheath dress said boastfully as she curled her hair with her fingers.

"Veramente!! (*Really!!)" The surprised friend asked with a gape as she eyed her friend who brought out some cheques for proof.

"Wow! This is fucking real!"

A phone beeped and the black haired lady in bob brought out her phone to check her message. She screamed happily and her friends took turns to see the content on her phone.

"Looks like someone just made your day with an awesome alert".. The lady in sheath dress said as she squinted her eyes at the screen of the phone to read its content.

"I'm so happy guys! Why don't we spend the night at the club and paint the town red?" The lady in bob suggested and they all smiled as they made for another direction.

Isabella watched them leave after listening to their discussion. She couldn't help but hear them talk, they were too loud to not be heard. She got home a few minutes later and scanned the empty room as she made way to her bedroom.

She knew her sister must be spending the moment at Mrs Margaret, their middle aged neighbor who lived in the same building with them.

She sat on her bed with a sigh, worrying and ruminating on how hard things had been for her family. She remembered how she had to give up college studies to work to fund her younger sister who was diagnosed with kidney problems at a young age.

Her phone beeped, snatching her from her worry zone. It was a text message from her silly best friend, Liliana, who sent her pictures of her fun night at the club the other night.

"Really?? Is this the time to talk about some parties??" Isabella said to herself, switching off her phone angrily and brushing her pretty long fingers into her silky black hair in worry. The conversation of the three girls she saw earlier flashed through her mind.

"Girls!! Club!! Liliana!!" She remembered how Liliana had always persuaded her into having sex with some cool dudes when she was still in college. She had told her it was an easy way to earn and she shouldn't worry about popping her cherries.

"It's nothing bad silly. Just give it a try!" Those were Liliana's words.

"Cherry clubhouse! That's it. I have no choice but to give it a try." Isabella exclaimed, standing up and taking a look at herself in the mirror.

"If selling my body is the only means I have to save my dad, then I have no choice but to do this."

************

Isabella walked into the clubhouse and into Leonardo's office that afternoon.

She was left alone with no other choice. She felt weird and bad about what she was about to do but then, she only had to think of her father.

"SI accomodi!! (*Come in!)" The middle aged Leonardo with tinted beards replied immediately as soon as he heard a knock on his door.

Isabella opened the door quietly and she could see two men with beards sitting in front of the club owner, Leonardo Velaguez by name.

"How may I help you?" Leonardo Replied with the brightest smile as he scanned and assessed her innocent face.

Isabella smiles back sheepishly. She wasn't comfortable seeing the two bearded men at his front.

"Now you guys should excuse us. It seems I have a customer here!"

Leonardo said while the two bearded men in hat and suit nodded and stood to take their leave.

Isabella noticed one of them couldn't take his eyes off her. His eyes were filled with lust as he took several glances at her body.

Leonardo Smiled and ushered her to sit at his front. He knew she wasn't comfortable with them around.

"Have a seat young lady!" He pointed to the empty seat in front of him and she did a flashback of her experience at the doctor's office.

That was the exact way he offered her to sit. She was starting to get nervous now but then, she had to think of her father.

"May I know your name beautiful?" His smile reassured her that she was safe with him. He's the famous Leonardo who has been in this business for some years now. There's been no record of him raping or harrasssing a lady.

"Isabella! My name is Isabella D'Angelo!"

"Okay! This is my first time seeing you and I'm sure you're here for a business deal if I'm not mistaken". Leonardo Said, adjusting himself on his seat and wiping his face with his handkerchief.

"Si (*Yes!)"

"Okay stand up!". He ordered and she obeyed with her heart beating fast.

She looked into his brown eyes with his full thick brows as he assessed her body like some piece of steak.

"Turn around!".

She made a turn which made him have a proper view of her body. She was quite skinny and loaded with a little flesh and great curves. She was blessed at her chest department and rare end. Little wonder, the man in suit earlier fell for the tempting curves in her body.

"Sit down!" He finally said and out of relief, she sat and waited patiently for what he had to say. She could see his eyes on her big tits and huge round hips.

Leonardo nods satisfactorily with a faint smile before putting some things down on his notepad.

"In che modo vuoi perdere la verginità? (*Which way do you want to lose your virginity?)"

The question met her unawares and her face wore a cloud of confusion.

"I..urm..I honestly don't know. Can you explain what you've just said?"

Leonardo Sighs and looks back into her eyes. Those innocent eyes had an alluring feature that turns one on, giving her the utmost attention she deserved.

"As you know, I'm a businessman and I have a side business of auctioning off girl's virginities."

A deep sound was heard as he cleared his throat. The whole place was as silent as a graveyard.

"You have two options to pick on how to sell your virginity."

"What are these two options?" Isabella asked with utmost attention. Hearing all these were strange to her ears as a newbie and novice who had no sexual experience.

"Fairytale deflowering which is where a man buys you, you have a nice date and then, it ends with sex."

"The cost of the date and experience will come out of the final payment, intimacy, feelings and emotions."

"Okay so! What is the other type?"

Isabella cut in, adjusting herself on the chair and staring directly into his piercing eyes.

"Option two is a straight up deflowering. You won't get the date or the fairytale. The guy doesn't give you any time of his life. You will stay in a room and wait to see who has purchased your precious cherry. No niceness, no pleasantries, just a night of f**k, A business contract, signed, dealed and finished with a d**k."

She gulps on hearing that. She has never heard of things like that before and here she was, giving it a try and losing her precious virginity.

"The choice is left to you, beautiful!"

Leonardo Said with a grin before sipping his drink.

"I…I think…I…."

"Looks like you're confused honey. I know it's your first time but you don't have to force yourself to do this. It's just a business deal. You get to earn your thousand dollars, I take a little percent and that's all."

Leonardo assured her once again with a smile. He balanced on his chair and ran his fingers on the brown table which had a pile of files on it.

"Now tell me! What have you concluded on?"

"I.. I think I'll go with the second one!"

Isabella finally said while he took a pen and jotted down some things again before turning to face her.

"Okay good! Then we're good to sign!"

He brought out a document under the files and placed it at the center of the table.

"We have a lot of women who want to make money off their first sexual experience. I have hundreds of stinking wealthy clients and I know one will definitely come for you Tonight."

Her heart skipped when she heard the word "Tonight!". Will she really be losing her virginity tonight?.

Seeing the little time her dad had to survive. She had no choice but to stick with what she started and intended to do.

"I will get a ten percent profit and you keep the rest after your job tonight. Also, for safety reasons, there are rules guiding this clubhouse to ensure your protection".

Leonardo Broke the silence and continued,

"I will ensure I have a guard to guide your door so as to ensure protection in case your owner today decides to hurt you by doing anything stupid."

She nodded slowly but was quite disturbed underneath. While rubbing her hands together, she sights the wristwatch in her wrist. It was given to her as a gift from her father when he was still healthy. All of those loving memories with him recollected in her mind and a scraping sound of the chair against the floor jolted her to the present time.

"Where am I to sign?". She finally took the pen as she scanned the content on the white document before her.

"Qui! (*Over here!)" Leonardo Pointed to a blank space at the right end corner while she signed.

After signing, she grabbed her bag and stood, sniffing and trying to hold her tears before leaving.
