“the prince and the princess then lived happily ever after…,” Tara watched her son’s sleeping face as she wrapped up his bedtime story; he always fell asleep halfway through it.
With a sigh she tucked him, before glancing one last time fondly; she then switched off the light and left the room.
She hurriedly had a shower, before going over to the closet; she wouldn’t need the nightie anyways, so she pulled her minis instead.
In her dresser, she put on her make-up and dabbed perfume all over her body, hoping, she stilled looked attractive enough; but the stormy night outside didn’t give a good sign though.
No it wasn’t a party she was getting ready for; if she didn’t hurry she might not get any customer that night – fearing that, she hurried outside leaving her beloved son alone; when it was bedtime for all her work started ~ tough life of a hooker.
