her cheeks giving her balance. When she saw who it was, her stomach tightened up, and her body started doing shit on its own.
Jai said, “Aye! Get it, girl.”
Isaiah from around the hood, Lovely Vines, done came to see her at the come-up spot. She saw him push politely past Jai and place a stack of cash on the stage, and her ass must have seen it, too, the way it started twerking.
That shit turned her on, and she gave him eye contact the whole time, not knowing if she should be mad or happy at the same time he came to the job.
Queen knew the drill, and she started picking Samaya’s money up for safekeeping from the thirsty when she couldn’t see it.
Seeing all that money this customer was throwing made Samaya’s ass have its own goddamn brain. Her ass cheeks were talking in sign language to his brain and pockets.
She stood up, slowly massaging her body, giving his fine ass all the attention, noticing he had a few guys standing with him as if they were watching his back.
Queen said, “Damn bitch! Twerk…twerk that ass?”
Teresa said, “She’s snapping! Don’t break your back!”
Samaya made her way off the stage, nervous for no reason, and her family was right behind her.
Samaya said, “I’m nervous, Queen! I liked all his shit on Lovely Vines.”
Queen said, “All you need is a few shots, hit this flame, and go get him.”
Teresa said, “I was hoping that wig didn’t fall off.”
Samaya said, “Auntie…oh my gosh! Let me freshen up!”
Teresa said, “What’s funny? I’m so serious. You were shaking, twerking, and some mo shit!”
Queen said, “Spray on some perfume, and brush your teeth, because your ass looked like you saw a ghost. Scary ass!”
Samaya said, “Let me lock my money up until Toonie gets here. I need to step back out to greet, and show love to the ones who tipped well.”
Teresa said, “He’s the only one that tipped well. He made everybody move to the side.”
Queen said, “This is my first time seeing him up close. Girl, he fine just like his brothers.”
Samaya said, “Who’s his brothers? Don’t tell me, let me guess. Lovely Vines, huh?”
Queen said, “Remember, I told you. Merch wanted to hook you up with his brother.”
Samaya said, “Well, he looks like a chocolate bar with muscles. Did you see Jai?”
Queen said, “We talked for a hot minute.”
Teresa said, “Well…I want to meet the chocolate bar who created their ass!”
Queen said, “Auntie, I don’t know his father. He got some fine-ass cousins though.”
Teresa said, “Damn! I need an uncle. Fuck these little boys.”
Samaya said, “Let’s go chop it up with Jai, before her fine ass leave.”
Queen said, “You need to go chop it up with the dude before his fine ass leave. All that money he just placed on the stage, girl.”
Samaya said, “I’m not about to look all thirsty.”
Teresa said, “Y’all young girls kill me with that thirsty shit.”
Queen said, “Auntie, we the same age damn near.”
Teresa said, “My mama wasn’t no joke. I still like them older.”
Samaya and Queen went back to the front to finish up the night with private dances, and the VIP.
Teresa stayed in the back, selling wigs, making appointments, and giving out her number to the girls.
Jai said, “OMG! Girl, that man threw all that money on you. You made that shit look simple.”
Samaya said, “That comes with the territory. You look, you pay! Let’s go get a shot, girl.”
Jai said, “Well, I’m going to mingle a little bit before I leave. It’s some nice-looking men in here.”
Samaya said, “You’re right about that, girl! Go on and get you one.”
Samaya didn’t see him anywhere in the club. She wanted to thank him, but she couldn’t find him, so she went about business as usual.
She made a few thousand giving lap dances, and a few VIP requests from her regulars, and that made her night a good profit.
When she made her way to the dressing room to change, she was surprised when she opened the door. Isaiah was sitting in her chair, looking at his phone as if he didn’t see her walk in. “What the fuck,” Samaya shouted.
Samaya said, “Are you lost? Do you want a lap dance? VIP is in the front, sir.”
Isaiah said, “I know where I’m at, and when I want a lap dance, you’ll give it to me. Have a seat, please.”
Samaya said, “Really? How’d you get in here, sir?”
Isaiah said, “The same way you did! Have a seat!”
Samaya said, “What do you want?”
Isaiah said, “You! I’ll call you, so be ready, Ms. Saria.”
Samaya said, “How did you get my number?”
Isaiah said, “Never mind all that. I’ll call you, or you can call me. Take my business card, lovely.”
Samaya said, “Oh my gosh! All these monosyllabic responses.”
When Isaiah went to leave out the door, Queen, Sunshine, and Teresa came in giggling as he brushed past them, and that made them laugh even harder.
Sunshine said, “Hey, Saria! Damn, he smelled good.”
Teresa said, “Change clothes, Queen, so your slow ass can take me home.”
Queen said, “Let me see what Merch talking about. I might need you to take my car.”
Samaya said, “Queen, did you let that man in here?”
Sunshine said, “He was fine as hell. Is that your man?”
Queen said, “What man? Sunny, mind ya own—”
Samaya said, “You know damn well who I’m talking about.”
Teresa said, “I don’t know who let his ass back here. Did you get the number?”
Sunshine said, “If she didn’t, I’ll go get his shit. Now ignore that!”
Teresa
