LEAVING ON A JET PLANE
I LOOK OUT the plane window, my finger going to the glass, feeling the
cold on my fingertips as I look down at the land moving quickly below
me. It’s funny how, from up here, everything looks so small. I’ve never
traveled in a plane before today. The idea of being trapped inside a tin can
while flying at six hundred miles per hour never appealed to me. I take a
breath and look at the TV monitor that’s in the seat in front of me. The
small, animated plane on the screen shows that we’re over halfway to
Tennessee.
“Are you traveling for business or pleasure?” I turn my head and look at
the guy sitting next to me. He’s slightly overweight and balding, but he also
has wrinkles around his eyes, giving him the appearance of someone who
smiles often.
I debate with myself on whether or not to answer before replying,
“Business.”
His eyes drop to my mouth then to my chest as I fight the urge to punch
him in the throat. I hate when men go from nice to creepy. I shake my head,
turning away from him. I don’t know why I even try.
I feel a hand on my bare leg and my head swings around quickly.
“Touch me again and I will rip off your balls and feed them to you,” I
tell him in a soft tone, trying not to bring attention to us.
He quickly removes his hand, swallowing hard. “I…I’m sorry.”
I shake my head before turning my body away from his. I feel tears
stinging my nose, but I fight them back. No way am I going to cry now—
not when, just six hours ago, my whole world exploded and I didn’t shed
one single tear. I lay my forehead to the glass, closing my eyes. I still can’t
believe how fast my life changed…
I got up yesterday morning and went to the hospital like I always do. I
work at one of the busiest ERs in Vegas. I’ve been working there since I
finished school and was required to get my clinical hours for my RN. As
soon as I walked into the building, I was loaded down with work. Weekends
are always crazy in Sin City, but yesterday seemed worse than normal—two
drug overdoses, three stomach pumps, and one gunshot victim. Later, I left
the hospital exhausted, only to head to my real job— well, the one that pays
me the money I need to live.
“Hey, Angel.”
“Hey, Sid.” I gave him a half smile as I walked into The Lion’s Den, the
gentlemen’s club I work at.
Do I like working at a strip club? No. Does it pay my bills? Yes. The
second I walk in the door at the club, I’m no longer me. My brain shuts off
and my body takes over, the same way it used to when I was growing up
and my mom forced me into pageants. I’m accustomed to being on display
