《Reaper's Girl》Chapter 2: Getting Ready
Advertisement
I walk out of the store with my groceries still thinking about the man who had helped me. He was so handsome and those eyes could make any girl melt. I set Kai down in his car seat after putting the groceries in the car and ask him "What do you want to eat baby?" "Nuggies" Kai says clapping his hands. "Mc Donalds it is," I say getting in the driver's seat. We pull up to Mc Donald's window to see a young man no older than 20. As soon as he sees me starts blushing, then he asks "What can I get for you beautiful?" I cringe at the nickname before replying "Can I get a kids meal with a 4 piece chicken nugget and a big mac with a large fry." "Also don't call me beautiful," I say after my order. His face turns even redder before putting our order in.
I sigh as I exit Kai's room after finally getting him to fall asleep. I walk to my room and decide to start getting ready for work. Oh that reminds me I totally forgot to introduce myself I'm Aniya Queenie Keita, I was born in Ghana but moved to the UK when I was only 5 when I turned 6 my parents put me up for adoption due to financial problems, I have a 2 and a half-year-old son, I ran from his father after he threatened to kill my son, and if you haven't realized it yet I'm a stripper. Anyway, let's get ready, I start by taking a shower and shaving then I picked out my outfit. For now, I decided to wear some black joggers and a black sweater, but for work, I decided on a gold sequin one-piece, black thigh-high heeled boots, and some shield sunglasses.

As I finish packing my work bag someone rings the doorbell. I look through the peephole to see my best friend and Kai's babysitter, Kendall. Kendall and I have been friends since I moved here to Atlanta 9 months ago, We met while I was working part-time at a bar downtown. I open the door to be greeted by a big bear hug from Kendall. "Hey, girl it's been too long since I've seen you," Kendall says releasing me from the hug. "I just saw you 2 days ago," I say rolling my eyes. "Where's my adorable nephew," she says looking around for Kai. "He's already asleep, I better head out I still have to get dressed and do hair and makeup," I say before jogging out the house saying a quick 'bye'. This is gonna be a long night.
But little did I know my night was gonna be crazy...
