1 Mister!

The sunlight surged through the window on a Saturday morning, waking Lucy from sleep. She growled with outstretched arms and legs.

Oh! When last had she slept this sound and peaceful? She sniffled in the cool air that smelt like vanilla. Hmm! She now became hungry.

Lucy opened her eyes, to behold the luxurious room she was in right now. At first, she didn't wonder how she got to be in that room. She wanted to stay a little longer on the soft comfy bed. She diverges her legs, curving her arm under her head.

Lucy felt blessed to have slept on the right side of the bed which was by the window. Inhaling, she took a good look at the room she was in now.

Suddenly, her eyebrows creased and now she wondered, where was she? How did she end up here? Lucy lifted the bedsheet to see if she was naked but she wasn't.

What happened to her? She raked the room with her gaze still in awe of how she got here.

Hmph! This room was tremendous, it was five times bigger than her small apartment. Lucy then sat up, with her gaze still scrutinizing the room, her gaze landed on the man sleeping next to her in bed...in bed!

Well, it wasn't her first time but this was far from her expectations. Pfft, what should she except anyway? Finding herself in the luxurious room meant she was brought here by the man and they spent the night together. That seemed mundane to her because it wasn't her first time finding herself sleeping in bed with a man in a luxurious room.

Lucy had so many questions, like. What happened during the night? How did she end up in bed with a man? Last night...last night, what happened? Wait, what's the time now?

She lifted her left wrist to check the time but her wristwatch wasn't around her wrist. Where was it?

Lucy tossed her leg to the ground which had a rug colored in blue, she looked around searching for her things, and eventually found it on a table close to the entrance, which had three couches surrounding it with her bag and phone and wristwatch on it. Lucy ran to take it.

She must be late for work, she thought. The moment she arrived at the table, she picked up her wristwatch and then put it around her wrist.

After beholding what the time said, shock devoured her, she was late for work!

"After ten?!" Lucy murmured to herself with her eyes widened at the sight of her wristwatch. What was she going to say to her boss? Thinking of her boss her thoughts wafted to yesterday's incident.

Yesterday was the day she knew death was her destiny. Everyone does die someday but hers was different like she was destined to die without achieving a thing. That was how cruel the universe was to her. Causing misery to her life.

Lucy got fired cause she was an audacious woman and has a low educational standard. After her boss found a good replacement for her, she got dismissed and was rendered jobless. She knew that her life had no meaning, upon getting to her house which could only be found in the slums, her landlord paid a visit by reminding her about her soon to due rent payment.

With a sigh of frustration and exhaustion, she nodded and entered her small apartment, sat on the only couch she had in her living room which was facing across her television with a coffee table in between. Lucy crossed her legs on the table and took a quick nap.

When she woke up it was dusk, she quickly went to wash her face and headed out again. She went to the hospital and upon getting there, using the money she had for tests and her medications, the news she heard disheartened and crushed her soul. Her cancer disease was progressing to the third stage.

There was treatment for it but Lucy was a penny less woman, she had no money for the surgery. So, she just needed to wait for death and later end up in heaven. What disheartened her was the fact that she hasn't achieved a thing in her entire life

After leaving the hospital, she decided to go to the bar and drink her ass out. Her life was too complicated to live in so having to get drunk would ease her misery a little.

Just as she had planned, Lucy drank to her heart content or her limit and when she lost her mind and was to the end extreme, intoxicated, she decided to lead her legs out of the bar.

Men came surrounding her but Lucy wasn't in the mood for fun or was ready to surrender to them. She needed money but now wasn't the right time to give her body away. She was depressed. Her serious life circumstances were enough to detain her.

Lucy was a beautiful lady but not incredibly beautiful like a goddess, she was attractive and had a glamorous body shape. She was perfect as a woman but being surrounded at this moment, she wasn't in the mood. She did her best to move away and then half succeeded as she walked out but two men still followed her.

Frustrated, she determined to beat them up but her body failed her. They both had already caged her and was ready to take her into the car they had but...

Suddenly, a man she didn't sight or view came to her rescue and paid the men off to free her. Lucy was released, with that she scuffed her way through them but surprisingly, she began to cry and soon everything turned black.

...

Lucy stared at the man lying on the bed and all she could think of was that the man had taken advantage of her being drunk. She eyed him, he was sleeping peacefully almost naked, and was only wearing a tight fitted boxer, black with some animated cartoon picture on it!

Wasn't this man a grown man? That wasn't the pinnacle here anyway, she needed to be paid for her service during the night. It wasn't the first time she was doing that, even if it had been for a while now.

Yes, the man was a jerk to have done that to her while she was drunk and she was upset about it but what could she do? She couldn't turn back time and she also needed the money. She grabbed her shoulder bag and went straight to him.

Tapping his arm. "Hey, Mister!" She cried out because she thought it wasn't going to be easy to wake the man sleeping like a log. "Oh, Mister! The sun is up! It's time to wake up" Lucy exclaimed, her bag about to fall off her shoulder but she pulled it back. She opened her mouth to speak again but he had already opened his beautiful eyes.
