Chapter 43-1
“Really? Well are you ok now? won’t pry too much… but I won’t judge if you want to tell me? Emma try’s her best to be supportive as my lip trembles slightly but I hold it together.
“I do have a brother, two actually, and like my father they were cru to me. I admit, as Emma nods and remains silent, allowing me the floor to speak.
“My mother died two years ago and after that, my whole life just fell apart. Something terrible was being planned against me, and so I had to leave before it was too late. Before now, I lived in two major cities, but they always caught up to me. They won’t quit
lie to the school to say that I lived with my brother to avoid looking for me and so this time, I tried a small town Instead, I had any questions.” I tell her carefully, not wanting to get into the finer details of what my father had done. (5)

Chapter 43-2
Emma stays quiet for a moment, processing over everything I had just said.
I understand… but I must admit it wasn’t at all what I expected in ear today when you invited me over have never imagined you were going through all of that – Tir so sorry!” Emma tells me, her gaze sorrowful
forgive me, but I would
Please don’t apologise! None of this is anybody but my families faul. I chose this path to attempt to build a better life for myself.” I nod firmly at my own words, standing by the decisions I’ve made thus far. O
At least I was free from them…
“Ok so what happened at the bar last night? I’m guessing there’s more to this? She questions, as I realise I hadn’t even begun to tell her the half of it yet.
“yeah that…well basically Reid set me up last night.” I mumble, suddenly agitated by the memory of him,
He had been a total asshole to me last night and for what?
“Really? What did he do? He’s been decent whenever I’ve spoke to him.” Emma shakes her head in disbelief, looking disappointed as I grumble.
He clearly just has a problem with me it seems!
“Well I turned up for my shift as normal and Tito wasn’t there. Turns out there’s a flu going around and a lot of the staff called in sick. I went to my station to set up, and found Reid behind my bar working. Confused, I obviously went over to see what was going on and he told me things had changed for the night and that Vincent wanted me to stand in for one of the dancers!” I exclaim, as
Emma gasps at my story.
“One of the strippers? You didn’t though did you?!” Enama’s eyes are wide and horrified as I suddenly chuckle at her.
They aren’t actually strippers, they only dance around the pole in revealing outfits but they don’t actually take anything off… but yes, I did do that! I tell her, still unable to process that 1 had gathered the confidence to stand up there in front of the customers
It all just felt like a terrible dream that had passed by in a quick blur
night!” Ema questions, thinking I was done as I shake my head quickly.
“So was that the nightmare? Having to dance for the whole night!”
“God not I wish that was the end of it! Basically Vincent came in, seen me up there and threw a fit! He first demanded that I got down and dragged me around the place demanding to know why I was told to dance in the first place!” I ramble, enjoying having someone to vent to about last night.
Each word helped to relieve me of some pressure…
“So Reid lied?! Vincent didn’t want you to dance? Why the hell would he put you in that position?!” Emma suddenly shares my fury towards Reid as I feel supported by her wholeheartedly so far, giving me the courage to continue.
“Exactly! But Vincent lost his temper because Reid had an attitude about it and next thing I know, he damn well punches him acr the bar! I had to pull him away!” I share what happened as Emma slaps her hands over her mouth.
“What the bell! Vincent obviously has feelings for you if he cares that much about it though Sofia!” She adds her opinion as I hum and think on her words.
I doubt that very much….

“So what happened after that Emma wants to know more as I prepare myself for the rest.
This was when things got way worse…
