Amandri's POV

I know I know , how did everything happen after my mother gave birth? I know it would be so exciting to see the nitty gritty process of my mother naming me and how she obtained a birth certificate for me. She just told me that the woman that night , my aunt Gina stayed with my mother for the remaining hours that night. For some odd reason my mother let Aunt Gina name me after her two daughters. I was named Amandri Leanne Jacob. I guess its a combination of Amanda and Adriana , even after 18 years I still do not fully understand my name... I guess my mom liked odd names. What else could it be? A few days after my birth my mom decided to go with Aunt Gina to live with her brother, we lived in a 2 bedroom apartment. Gina , my mom , and I in one tiny room with two cots and a porta-crib that Gina still had left over.' We only lived there for a while before... well I think seeing is more than just saying.

Los Angeles , September 19th , 2014 , 5:16 p.m; 1 year old

"Can't that little bitch top crying?" Edward yelled from the kitchen as Callie held Amandri in her arms trying to calm down her daughter.

The tiny apartment had seemed to be getting a lot smaller lately with an increasing price for Callie to pay so that she could continue to live with Gina and her brother Edward. Gina who at the age of 37 was living with her 27 year old brother asked if Callie could live there with Amandri for a few months so that Callie could find work and be able to support herself and her daughter. Just at the ripe age of eighteen Callie was living a more secure life than she had while she was in the foster care system. At least she knew that she couldn't get taken away from her daughter and that as long as she continued to pay rent to Edward and she payed for the upkeep pf her property. She had been working as a waitress at the local Chili's. There was not much more that she could get since she was a high school drop out with a one year old daughter who was sadly currently teething and was crying all the time.

"Don't call Mandri that you prick." Gina yelled from the bedroom trying to get dressed for work while Callie was trying to coo her daughter to sleep in the living room.

"Oh shut up you whore, go back to your pole" Edward said plopping down on the couch next to Callie. "You know I'm going to need 500 by the end of the month from you. I know you can only work so much but maybe it is time you start looking in other places for employment" He said putting his hand on Callie's knee making the hand move slowly upward before she flinched her leg away.

"I think I can get extra shifts." Callie said while rocking the fussing toddler back an forth.

"Well my buddy Jake , one of his girls quit the other night. He was wondering if you wanted to waitress. Maybe even do a little dancing here and there, plus it pays good money"Edward said touching her leg again in a higher place than her knee.

"I don't think its appropriate for a teenage mother to be serving old men drinks in a bra and thong." She said getting up and putting Amandri in her high chair and going to the fridge to get Mandri's bottle.

"Please all the men do is throw money and ask for drinks. The only time they can touch you is when they put bills in the g-string. No touching allowed , unless of course you want it." Edward said coming behind Callie and pushing her slightly into the counter. This was not the first time of his sexual advances and to be honest Callie had started to grow worrisome over Edwards growing passes at her. Especially when Amandri was in the room.

"I will think about it okay?" She said keeping her head down. "The money could be good to have."

"Will you stop freaking baby mama out. Don't forget that we are the ones paying your rent. Plus she is a little too young to be working with me don't you think?" Gina said kissing Amandri on the forehead as she headed out the door leaving Callie to ponder whether she should make a career change.

"I think if she is old enough to raise a kid , then she might as well be old enough to waitress at a strip club." Edward said as he backed away from Callie giving her room to breathe.

Vickie's , Los Angeles . June 27th , 2015 . 2 years old

"Can I get a whisky on the rocks with a side of you?" A man said as he winked at Callie. She had been working at Vickie's for the past six months and besides the lingerie uniform and occasional pinching of her ass , Callie had been grateful to be able to work there. She didn't dance despite Jake and Edwards constant pleading for her to try it. She always refused though , and held her ground. Her and Gina worked mirroring hours because despite Gina's age she had become a motherly figure and ally to Callie when she needed someone. The problem was that they only saw each other every other day and it seemed that it was never long enough with the both of them working to keep the four of them afloat , plus constantly needing to get things for Mandri made things tough on them.

"Maybe if you give me a good tip" Callie said putting on the fake sultry smile. She knew what she had to do to get good tips. Which compared to Gina was petty change. On a good night she might get $100. That was when there weren't as many girls working the floor though because when there were 10 waitresses and $1000 in tips then everything gets divided 'evenly'. It was no secret that the waitresses that Jake liked more got more of a cut of the tips. Though Jake liked Callie , he was peeved that she didn't wear as revealing lingerie as he hoped or that she didn't work the pole like other waitresses.

"Maybe I will give you a bonus tip if you give me a bonus." The customer said as he fiddled with his empty drink glass in hand.

To be frank Callie was also grossed out by the amount of guys who hit on her and offer to pay for extra services. She always turned them down because no matter how tight money was , she would never go that far to actually take off her well clothes. She would strip down to a bra and underwear but no one would see her naked. The only person who would see her naked in a sensual sense is a person who pays her more than money , she wants a relationship and respect before she sleeps with someone.

"Well I am getting out very late tonight ." Callie said as she walked away from him.

Getting a drink for the customer from the bar she looked over and saw someone else join him. Callie rolled her eyes as expected for the man joining him to be twice as much of a pervert as the other. Callie prepares for the worst as she brings over two whiskies.

"Well there we are Brett, I told you I would get you a hot waitress." The asshole said as Callie walked back over with his and the new guys drink.

"Shut up man , I'm sorry for him." The other guy that Callie presumed to be Brett.

"No problem. Just ask if you need anything." Callie said as she went back to the bar where Jake was. "How do you get perverted assholes off of your back?"

"You get on that pole where no one can touch you." He said to Callie as he overlooked the bar. " Jasmina could use a break and the back left pole is open . I will make you a deal , you wont even need to take off your bra. " Jake said and the idea intrigued her because Mandri was going to start full time daycare in a couple of months and that meant that would be an additional amount of money.

"No full nudity? Plus I get to keep whatever is thrown plus my cut of waitress tips. Two songs only" Callie said as she felt guilt wash over her for turning back on her morals slightly

"Just remember to pretend that the pole is your baby daddy. Now go put on some clothes to take off." Jake said as he motioned for Callie to go to the dressing rooms.

As Callie went back stage she played with her thumbs as she thought about how ashamed she was to be doing it. She knew she made a brash decision to do it but she couldn't lie. All she would be stripping down is her current uniform and showcasing her body for the patrons to see. As she changed into a green push-up bra with black mesh covering her abdomen with a black and green g-string. She already had on dark make-up with her hair pre-curled. She put on a black trench-coat and though she knew this was overkill. Callie just thought of getting her daughter something a little nice for her with the extra cash from that night.

Callies phone rang and she saw that it was Gina as she picked up.

"Do my ears deceive me or are you actually going to strip for the first time?" Gina asked and Callie rolled her eyes.

"Yeah well I am a little behind on my cut of the rent since Amandri's birthday and I thought that if I did this then maybe I could help plus that daycare I like isn't cheap." Callie said as she put on black heals.

"Well you will be fine. remember that guys like them young and with you still semi-breasting then those puppies you have will make the men be howling." Gina said trying to joke with her but then Jasmina walked in signifying too Callie that it was time for her to go.

"Just tell Mandri that I love her and that she means the world to me." Callie said as she hung up quickly and walked out through the club. She saw her station was completely empty with no one there to watch her. She smiled lightly as she started walking up the stairs hoping that only a few people saw her and that they didn't make her feel uncomfortable. Gina had showed her a few moves to use that were simple enough. Though they were doing it one night after drinks for fun. Which Gina claimed was to be used in the bedroom, which Callie quickly shot down.

As she waited for the music to begin, she saw the perv and Brett walk over to chairs surrounding the stage. As the perv made a cat call she heard the music begin as she started to sway to the music as she began to grind on the pole to the tempo of the music while taking off the coat. She swung her head around as she lowered herself onto the ground into a split as she rolled onto her back as she wrapped her legs around the pole slowly bringing her body up as she shook her buttocks. As she continued to move around the pole with her decent amateur moves she ignored the cat calls that were toward her and she realized that she hadn't felt that good about how she looked in a males presence since she conceived Amandri Leanne.

As the song stopped and another came on she just danced trying to think of it as a guy she liked was watching her and then at the end she bent down and smiled as she started collecting the array of fives and ones as a couple of the men who were watching her put more money into her undergarments.

As she walked back to the dressing room she smiled at Jake who was giving her a thumbs up from the bar. She went to the dressing room as she took out the money and began counting the whole lot together. She counted around $250 plus with the extra $100 from that night and she knew that everything would be fine for the month. Callie walked back out as she kept on her stage outfit as she collected her tray and walked over to Jake.

"Not bad for a newbie, next time you should take off your bra then more then seven guys will go to watch you." Jake said as he offered her a drink and she took it.

"Well I'm happy with what I made tonight." Callie took it and taking a long swing before she went to resume waiting on tables

Later that night

Callie walked out of Vickie's while getting ready to head to the bus stop as she heard a beep behind her. As she turned she saw Brett pull up next to her. As she clutched her bag closer to her body.

"Hi." He said simply and she looked at him wide eyed.

"Hey." She said quickly before continuing to to walk to the bus stop.

"Look I feel bad about what my brother said earlier and you look a little young to be walking alone. I can see you need a ride."Brett said and she just kept her head straight.

"Well you look a little too nice to be visiting a strip club."Callie shot back as she walked faster towards the bus stop.

"What can I say the wife was yelling at me to leave her alone and then I let Corey take me out to blow off steam. I thought we were going to a game but then he surprised me with this." Brett said laughing and I rolled my eyes at him.

"Sounds like you have a nice and understanding marriage. Do you think your kids would like to hear that their dad was following a 19 year old girl as she walked to the bus? Maybe add in the stripper part to your wife." Callie said as she walked to the end of the parking lot and started walking down the empty street.

"Well she may not be happy about that, what I assume is your loser boyfriend thinking of you stripping? Wait let me guess you got married straight after graduation and realized how hard it was to act like an adult so you decided to make easy money." He said speeding slightly forward and pulled over.

"Actually no, and I would appreciate if you didn't make assumptions because I learned about being having to be an adult way before got married which I will have to assume was a couple years ago to a gold digger who only wanted to marry you because you made an allusion that you had money. Now that she sees the truth , she doesn't want to stay with you." Callie turned to him and glared as she looked up and saw the bus drive past her to the stop and down the street. " God damn it." Callie stomped her foot.

"My offer for a free ride still stands. You have 10...9...8..7.." He said looking at his watch.

"Fine but you will drop me off where my bus gets off." Callie said getting into the car.

They sat in the car in silence as Callie watched the buildings pass by her. She counted the seconds and minutes in hopes that this man was not a rapist or murderer.

"By the way I have been married for eleven years. I got married while in high school after I got my girlfriend pregnant. Our other two were born by the time I started med school. Her family came from old money so we never had a problem financially. " He said as Callie motioned for him to turn.

"I got pregnant at 16 and ran away from my foster home. The family only wanted to adopt one of us and they were waiting for me to leave so that they could adopt my brother. I gave birth in a homeless shelter and have never once stayed in a place longer than I have here." She said continuously gazing out the window.

"So is it a boy or a girl?" He asked and Callie noticed that he passed her stop so Callie just directed him to her street.

"A girl; Amandri Leanne. This is it here." Callie said as he pulled up next to the e street.

"Well goodbye , I probably wont visit again... I'm Brett by the way." Callie nodded to him as she opened the door.

"I know , I'm Callie. Thanks for the ride." She said getting out of the car and walked down the street leaving him behind for the first time.

As Callie entered the apartment she saw that everyone was asleep as she crept into her and Gina's room. She saw Mandri was wide awake sitting in her porta-crib like normal when Callie got home. Callie picked up Amandri and cuddled her.

"Mama , work good?" She said after Callie put her in her lap.

"Yes , mama brought home some money for us baby." Callie said kissing her daughters head.

October 4th , 2015 , Los Angeles

"We might be losing the apartment. Gina isn't getting as many tips as she used to and I haven't even dared to go back to the pole." Callie said as she sat in the coffee shop were currently talking about work while Brett had a free moment.

"What if you and I worked out a deal. I will give you an additional $100 for every time you sleep with me." Brett said while he was rubbing Callie' hand with his thumb. "Plus you know Janice and I are on the fast track to divorce currently. If we even last another five years I will be surprised."Brett said as he and Callie held hands. She couldn't deny that she was attracted to him. They had been talking for the past year and had only recently started sleeping together , which bothered Callie because whenever they were together she had to remind herself that he wasn't divorced yet. She knew that he could talk as much shit as he wanted but she knew deep down that the truth was that he wasn't going to leave his wife for Callie any time in the near future.

"Well as interesting as that sounds , i should reject that proposition. Because I know that you need to pay for Marie's ballet lessons. Plus Devin just broke his arm at baseball right?" Callie asked as she took a sip of her black coffee.

"Yeah , but Amandri wants to start taking piano right? That shit costs a lot of money Cal and with this house situation you might not be able to put her in lessons." Brett said and Callie just shrugged her shoulders.

"My foster brother plays piano, I could get him to teach her when he gets back from college." Callie said as if it was going to happen because she knew very well that there was a slim to none chance of her ever seeing a member of the Foster family.

"Yeah but Callie she needs to get her own bed soon. I have seen your room and its a miracle that you and Gina can fit in there, let alone a child as well." Brett said and Callie just shook her head silently. "What if I pay you 50 a week. Then at the end of the month I will give you an extra 100 a month. Think of it like child support. You are my girl and I want to make sure that you and Amandri are in a stable place." Brett said

"Yeah well it sounds like you are more of a sugar daddy than anything else." Callie said.

"Well if you give me some sugar then I will make sure you are comfortable. Janice and I live in a house that is payed off from her parents. I make a good amount of cash that I have no use for. Besides of course spending it on nights with you." Brett said and then Callie felt a sense of guilt for taking his money but it quickly subsided when he looked her dead on in the eyes.

"Deal , but nothing fancy because trust me I don't deserve it."Callie said holding her hand out for him to shake but when he put his lips to her hand she quickly retracted it as she looked over at Mandri who was sitting in her own table a long with a friend from daycare and their older sister. Amandri looked over with her innocent eyes and smiled at Callie and she knew that though she felt wrong about doing this . Callie was doing it for her little girl , the only person who truly mattered to her in life.

"Also let me give you a $500 bonus for signing and for you to pay for Gina's half of rent for the month."

"Deal , but promise me that this stays strictly like this because the last time I got mixed up in a relationship I got him dumping me a few weeks after he got me pregnant."Callie said and then Amandri skipped over gleefully.

"Momma I am having so much fun! Thanks for letting me being able to hang out with Jax. "Mandri hugged her mother tightly and then she smiled at Brett. " Thank you again for keeping me momma company Mr. Brett. I hope you remember what I said about treating Momma right or else I will kick you so hard that they will hear your screams in China." Mandri said giving Brett the evil eye before walking back to her table. She knew that there was something off about Mr. Brett but she didn't tell her Momma because she didn't want to hurt her feelings.

Chili's , Los Angeles , December 19th 2016; Age 4

Callie and Gina decided to go and get a two bedroom apartment for Callie , Gina , and Amandri. They decided that they were in a secure place to do it as soon as soon as Callie started dancing for an hour two nights a week as well as waitressing as well. Plus Callie also worked in Chili's some nights for a couple extra bucks to pay for some extra little things for Amandri. Speaking of Chili's, Callie was currently serving customers when she saw Gina and Mandri in their usual Thursday night booth with Jake and Edward in tow.

Callie quickly got their usual drinks and brought them over to the table when she had a free moment.

"Mommy!"Amandri said as soon as she saw Callie and jumped up from the booth hugging Callie tightly.

"Hay baby girl , did you have a good day today with Aunt Gina?" Callie said as she kissed Mandri's head three times.

"Yeah , she took me to her friend Victors house and she let me watch old movies." Amandri said and Callie turned her head and saw new people walking in.

"Listen sweetheart , I need to go back to work but I promise I will come back." Callie said getting up and quickly hurrying to the table of 6. "Hi my name is Callie and I will be your waitress this evening what can I get you?" She asked looking up.

She saw the devil and his perverted brother along with what seems wife and kids himself.

"Hi ,we are going to get a round of waters for the kids. Then can I get a platinum margarita? My husband Brett will have a mango iced tea no sugar , and my brother in law will have a bud. We will also have an appetizer of the wings and skins." The woman said while Corey seemed to try to be holding in his laughter and Brett kept his eyes on the menu as soon as he saw Callie.

"Alright I will have those out on the double." Callie said as she headed out to the back putting the drinks together and putting the order for the appetizers on the counter. As she was taking a deep breath she Then put herself back together as she got the tray of drinks and brought them back to the table.

"Okay water for the kids , a bud for the uncle. An ice tea for the padre. Finally a margarita for the madre" Callie said giving them their drinks in order. She smiled at them all . "Now what can I get you guys for dinner? Unless if you need a couple minutes." Callie said and then she was surprised when Brett spoke.

"We will have a medium cheese pizza for the kids. Then we will have a sausage and onion pizza for the adults." Brett said giving Callie one small glance as though he was mad at her for serving them.

"Wow you guys should come back more often. You are super simple! I will have your appetizers in a minute and I will put your order in." Callie said as she turned around but stopped at Amandri's table.

"Well hows everything baby? Get the pasta or did we try something new?" Callie said bending down to her daughters level.

"I got pasta , but I try the red sauce mummy." Amandri said proudly.

"Yup she wanted to try the red sauce because she knew how much Tio Edward likes red sauce on his pasta." Edward said as he smiled at Mandri and Callie smiled at her daughter.

"Well mommy loves red sauce so now you get to join a secret club." Callie said hugging Mandri when she heard a cough from behind her to see Brett's wife glaring at Callie to get back to work. "Well it looks like some of my customers are hungry so i just have to go put their order in. I will come back while you are eating I promise." Callie said getting up.

"You know I can increase your hours at the club." Jake said to Callie as she walked to the kitchen , just like he said every Thursday. As Callie put in the order she saw someone familiar walk to the back.

"I'm sorry." He said as he looked Callie in the eye.

"It's not your fault. It was only a false alarm. No baby no problems. Besides it was months ago, I'm over it." Callie said as she started fixing herself a drink.

"It was still wrong of me to freak out on you. I just didn't want Janice to find out." He said to Callie as he watched her drink a coke and vodka.

"Listen Brett, what we had lasted for what? Two years. We only had sex a handful of times a month. The way I see it is that you gave me a ride home from work a couple times and we sometimes had a detour." Callie said finishing her drink and getting the order for table 10 to deliver.

"It was more than sex and you know it."Brett said and Callie looked up at him into his grey eyes.

"Yeah you payed me after." She said before putting on a smile and delivering an order for an elderly couple. When she turned around she saw Brett with his family yet again and she rolled her eyes as she went back to the kitchen to wait for orders.

She looked at Brett and his family. She had seen pictures of them before but she never thought that they would be such a perfect little looking family. With Brett's blonde hair and his wife's red the children were all perfect looking strawberry blonde children. Amandri on the other hand had messy brown hair with her mothers appearance and her fathers eyes. Gina would always tell Callie that when Mandri was older that Callie would need to start keeping her under lock and key or sending her to an all girls Callie was not that quick to cross out on ideas.

Callie quickly signaled her manager to tell her that she was going to take her lunch break. As she walked out back she got out her cellphone as she dialed a number she knew by heart, letting it ring until she heard.

"Foster residence , Jude speaking." Callie's heart filled with joy.

"Hey bud , its me. Happy birthday." Callie said to Jude and she heard him smiling , she swore she did.

"Cal! You called! How are you? Hows Boston?" Jude asked , knowing that this was the one call a year he gets besides on Christmas.

"Its good , I'm working at this nice club as a waitress. I have an amazing roommate, we just moved into a new building. How is everyone?" Callie asked wanting only a brief summary.

"Good , Stef got me a skateboard for my birthday. Jesus is going to UCLA next year , Mari got in also. Brendan is coming home in a couple weeks from Julliard. Maybe you could come over from the east coast. Everyone misses you and no one is mad anymore about you leaving." Jude said and Callie thought for a moment about truly doing it but she then thought about what could happen.

"I'm sorry Jude but I just can't make it."Callie thought about telling Jude for a minute about Amandri but then decided to lie a little instead. "I am... well I'm pregnant and you see I am due in June so I am still in my first trimester so I can't fly because it isn't good for the baby." Callie said trying to reason with herself that it is good that Jude now knew that he was an uncle or well thought he was an uncle to be.

"Callie that's awesome! I didn't know you were dating. I will make sure I tell everyone. Hey you can tell them , I will just put it on speaker-" Jude said but Callie quickly stopped him.

"Jude nothing is certain yet. Its still early yet and the father and I aren't together anymore." Callie said and just as she heard him about to talk she heard screams from the inside followed by shots. "Jude I need to go there were just shots fired I think ." Callie said in a hurry before she hurried inside to see a man with a gun in the middle of the dining area pointing his gun around. Callie is met with the sight of Stacy a waitress on the floor with a bullet hole in her head. Callie quietly dialed 911 and left her phone on the floor.

Callie couldn't hear Amandri cry, then again none of the children were in the room but what looked like Devin , Brett's youngest who was only 8 , laying on the ground shaking with a bullet in his arm.

"Now everyone listen to me , all I want is for this bastard to give me the money he owes me and you can have your kids back." The gunman said and Callie saw that Jake was the person he was talking to. "All I want is my 5k and then we can all be on our merry ways." Callie then got nervous in thought of what might happen.

"I have some money if he can pay some right now. I will pay the difference."Gina said from the booth. "All we want is our little girl back. Please she is all her mother has. We will both pay, Right Cal?" Gina said as she saw Callie and the shooter pointed his gun at her and she nodded quickly.

"I only have 4 on me right now. Please don't drag them into this..." Jake said.

"Shut the fuck up , you brown eyes , " The man yelled to Callie as he grabbed her and put the gun to her head. "I have seen you dance quite a few times at Jake's strip joint so I know you must have a good amount of cash on you." He said as pulled the handgun at Callie's throat "You also have a good body on you maybe you could also put on a nice show right now. I will take off that last grand for now." He said harshly into Callie's ear.

"I would rather give Jake the last grand instead. "Callie said ." I still have left over money from last week. I can give maybe 500 right now."Callie said quietly "My bag is in the back and I will go get it..." Callie said beginning to go towards the back

"Lead the way to the sweetheart. " The man said and then he went over and grabbed Janice as he pulled the both of them to the staff area. and pushed Callie to the area where the bags were. As her hands wavered she heard faint sirens coming as she hurried and got the wad of 10's , 5's , and 1's in her bag along with a few twenties in there .

The last things Callie could remember was a shot and kneeling along Janice asking for forgiveness for sleeping with her husband.

Vickie's, Los Angeles , June 13th 2017. Age 5

Callie walked around the club watching as Brett and Corey sat in their usual Saturday night seats. Brett had been taking the death of his son hard. Him and Janice had been sorting out their affairs and promised to start working on their marriage so that their family could remain intact for a while longer. not because they love each other but because they love Kevin and Marie and they needed to try to love each other enough to hold together their family so that it wouldn't crumble more than it had. With this Brett and Callie went back to their odd schedule that she would comfort him at times and talk to him and just be with him so that he could feel better.

With this though brought on more severe actions from Brett to prove his feeling for Callie. First things started with money for Amandri to try cheerleading then after a while Brett got Callie a charm bracelet and could add a charm every once in a while. Soon he started buying her more lavish things like a diamond necklace and earrings to match. Then he bought Mandri a bed set and Callie a bed of her own that was bigger. With Gina happily going along with everything because Brett bought a new stove after the last one broke.

Callie went backstage getting ready in a theme costume for the night because Jake thought it would be funny if the girls wore costumes from his girlfriends sex shop, his relatively new and freaky girlfriend who weirded out Mandri whenever she and Jake visited Edward.

As Callie got ready in her police costume that if she were ever to wear it outside of the club on Halloween she would be deemed more of a slut mom more than she already is. With her daughter is Kindergarten it was no hidden fact with the parents that Callie was a part time stripper. She didn't flaunt it , she just let it be. Just like she knew another mother from the room was sleeping with the father of a boy in the next class over. She was in the middle of a divorce and he was a widow.

Callie was changing in the dark of the twelve people who walked into Vickie's to celebrate with Jesus for all of them passing finals. They were there to surprise Jesus as well to congratulate him on his engagement to Lexi. Since they heard good things from Jesus' friend Damien who visited once for a bachelor party . Saying that though half of it consisted of five stages with five girls always going to the song that was playing. Jesus thought it would be a great way to celebrate the end of finals but was clueless to the surprise that this was secretly a party to celebrate him.

"Fellas whats this?" Jesus asked as he saw his four friends from his volleyball team which included his roommate.

"A little celebration of you." Damien said coming up from behind him. "This chick is only here for one hour a night. I mean I know that it is only 7 at night but she is coming out any minute and she is honestly the hottest thing." He said walking Jesus over to a back corner platform that they sat with a couple of other men which soon became flooded with people.

Callie peared out from the dressing room and saw the 24 seats around her stage were filled with men who were all talking to a waitress waiting for her to come out and start dancing. She saw that Jake was sitting at the bar like he usually did ready to watch to make sure everything went smoothly. Though tonight Edward was with him as well and they were laughing about something.

As Callie did a walk towards shame Jake and Edward flagged her to come over which she did promptly.

"Well doesn't someone seem sexy." Edward said eyeing her and motioned for Callie to do a twirl which she complied too.

"Thank you, I really like this new costume idea. " Callie said smiling as she took a tequila shot that Jake handed to her throwing it back. "So the back seems full tonight. Bachelor party?" Asked as she adjusted her garter on her left leg.

"Well your boyfriend and his brother and then some celebration thing with some college dudes. I know such fun for you. Then there are just some guys sitting there. Believe it or not some guys actually like watching you." Jake said laughing slightly with Callie.

"Well let me tell you that his arc with me is almost over. I think him and Janice are doing well in therapy and he is trying to make up for it with lavish gifts because he knows that we should stop fucking around for the best for his kids. I personally think Mandri is more than happy that he is leaving to be quite honest. Ever since what happened at Chili's she thinks he is a bad man for kissing someone who isn't his wife. I swear if she were old enough she would have given me the sex talk." Callie said laughing.

"Trust me she would. She told me once that she wants you to get married to me so that she can have a sister and Gina can be her real aunt. See you still haven't told her about the pregnancy scare." Edward laughed and Callie glared at him.

"Edward Miguel Esposito you better not tell her or else your Hispanic ass will hurt so much that even morphine wont make it feel better." Callie said punching his shoulder as she walked over to the stage and climbed the stairs.

As she waited for ten seconds for the music to start and even with aviators on in a darkly lit room she could see her foster brother's face clearly. Well Judes brother now , or that she could assume they identify themselves as brothers.

As the music started she tried to make herself focus on Brett just because it was easier since they already had sexual relations, Jesus and her hadn't talked in years and he could tell his mothers of Callie being a stripper or even worse tell Jude.

As soon as she started working with the pole she could hear Jesus catcalling her, which was not something she wasn't used to with other male customers that were strangers but this was different. There was nothing sexual for him when she was living with the Fosters but now that she was stripping for him and his friends she felt nervous that her glasses would fall off and about $1000 later and one hour later she was getting off the stage nude except a navy g-string with a matching garter and a police hat on with her aviators. As she walked away she was about to enter the dressing room when she heard Jesus.

"Hey you were fantastic out there. Thanks for the show." He yelled and though she thought for sure he would call her Callie he didn't she was assured that he didn't know.

While Jesus Foster walked out the door of a strip club he smiled as he thought of everyone's faces when he told them that Callie was a stripper now, but he knew he wasn't that much of a jackass so he just thought of taking Brandon for a visit when he was in town visiting next time.

New idea on the Journey of Callie and her daughter while living to make a better living. Just know that Callie goes to great lengths to make sure her daughter is safe , the father will remain anonymous until the last part of this 3-5 part story Here is the list of events

.Meeting Father -

Note for those who wonder why Brett is in a lot of this chapter or who he is... Callie has an array of partners through the story. She gets married by the time Amandri meets her father. Now i guess some of you are hoping it is a certain Foster ; and for them to get married and have their own families , that may or may not happen depending on the father. Also I kind of hinted in the first time that Amandri might not be an only sibling.

note: Dont forget to say who you think is the father...
