125. ("SHE BE STRIPPIN', PART ONE")

Anya was in her room, then all of a sudden her father came in, "Sweety" her father let out. "Yeah dad?" Anya asked. "We have a problem" her father told her. "Is it mom?" Anya asked, her mother had been in the hospital, it was nearing February and she would be expected to pass soon. "Actually it is, we can't afford to pay her hospital bill, things are getting hectic" her father tells her. "Well is there anything I can do?" Anya asks the man. "Yeah just get ready for whatever happens" the man tells her. Anya shakes her head in agreement and watches as her father walks away. "I need to do something" Anya tells herself as she cuts off the lamp by her bed.

Trevor woke up, he was feeling sick, he then remembered that he had to get up before his dad did, his dad was a huge drinker. "Trevor!" he heard his dad call out, Trevor quickly closed his door. Trevor quickly slipped on his jacket. Just then his father burst through the door, "You didn't hear me calling you?" his father asked him. Trevor's heart started to beat, "I have to go to school" as Trevor said this a hand came across his face and he landed on the bed. "You little bastard when I call you, you come running!" his father said as he made his way out of the room.

Trevor eased his way into the school, everyone looking at the bruise on his face. Just then Trevor had managed to get into the study hall, where he sat down at a table and was next to a familiar girl, he had saw her during lunch time. "Hi" the girl said, "Sup" Trevor told the girl. "My name's Sarah" Sarah told the boy. "Nice to meet you Sarah" Trevor told the girl. "Woah where did you get that bruise?" Sarah asked him, Trevor then got up to leave. But Sarah grabbed his arm, "Sorry that came out all wrong, please let me make it right, I'm sorry" Sarah begged. Trevor nodded as he sat back down with the girl.

Anya made her way into the DOT, when all of a sudden she noticed that a man had dropped a card, Anya then noticed the word money. "Money?" Anya stated as she picked up the card, it was a strip club card, "I shouldn't...maybe I'll just call" Anya stated as she made her way outside and pulled out her phone. "Yes um...I'm calling about the job...yeah how much would it pay?" Anya asked the man on the other end. "An average of $50 every time I go up!...no that's great thanks I will definately stop by soon" Anya tells the man. Anya then hung up the phone. She couldn't believe that she was retorting to stripping, "I have to this" Anya state, "For my family" she finished as she made her way down the street.

Trevor was having a nice conversation with Sarah, when all of a sudden he noticed the time, "I have to go" Trevor tells the girl as he begins to get up. "What do you mean you have to go?" Sarah asked him, "My dad gets real mad" Trevor let out. "That bruise, did your dad do it?" Sarah asked. Trevor nodded before walking out.

Anya made her way into the building, she then made her way to a man, "Um...I'm the girl you talked to on the phone earlier, and I was wondering" Anya began, "I knew you were beautiful, your voice said it all, you got the job" the man told Anya. "Thanks" Anya stated as the man walked away.
