Tempest Miller
The stench of gasoline and burnt rubber assaulted my nostrils as I stepped
out of the shit box car I bought back in LA. The Phoenix sun beat down on
me, sweat already trickling down my spine. My heart pounded like a
jackhammer against my ribcage, but I couldn’t let that slow me down. I
needed a job, and I needed one fast. I slammed the door behind me, not
giving a fuck about the rusted hinges screeching in protest.
“Alright, Tempest,” I muttered to myself trying to get used to the name.
Taking a deep breath and rolling my shoulders. “You got this.”
I walked down the main street with determination, my eyes scanning the
buildings for any “Help Wanted” signs. Some might think I was walking
through fire with the way my legs moved, but I knew better. Life had taught
me that if you didn’t hustle, you’d get left behind, and I wasn’t about to let
that happen. Not now, not ever.
“Come on, there’s gotta be something,” I whispered under my breath, my
boots pounding the pavement like war drums. Storefront after storefront
passed by, each one seeming more uninviting than the last. My stomach
twisted with anxiety, but I couldn’t let fear take over. I came here for a
reason, and I wasn’t leaving until I found what I was looking for.
“Shit, nothing,” I grumbled, frustration building inside me. I paused for a
moment, catching my breath and wiping my brow with the back of my
hand.
As I continued down the street, I couldn’t help but feel the weight of my
past bearing down on me. All the shit I’d been through, all the pain and
suffering – it fuelled me, pushing me forward. I refused to let anyone
control me again, and that started with finding a job and a fresh start in this
godforsaken city.
What about that place? I thought to myself, spotting a dingy bar, with a few
bikes parked out the front. I quickly ran across the road and stood before a
bar, its neon sign flickering like a dying ember. The grungy exterior
screamed trouble, but something deep inside me whispered that this might
be my shot at safety.
Maybe these guys could protect me if he ever found me, I thought, taking a
shaky breath. My heart raced as I squared my shoulders and pushed open
the door.
Inside, the dimly lit bar seemed to swallow me whole. The smell of stale
beer and cigarette smoke hung heavy in the air, threatening to choke me. As
I scanned the room, my eyes landed on a woman behind the bar – a living,
breathing work of art. She was beautiful, with long, tanned legs showcased
by booty shorts and a small crop top that barely contained her large breasts.
“Hey, you guys lookin’ for help?” I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.
The bartender looked me over, her eyes narrowing slightly. She leaned on
the counter, folding her arms across her chest. “Yeah, we might be. You got
any experience?”
