I sit ataway at whatever suits my fancy The notes flow froain I have a tiny studio apartment with thin walls, so headphones are a necessity With the from my Yamaha CP88, and I close my eyes as I lose hty-eight keys are, so I don’t have to pay attention as ers fly of their own accord

The keyboard is so fancy that it should have cost ot it for a fraction of the price at a pawn shop a couple years ago There are scratches in the frame and not all the dials work anymore, but it’s okay – I can ot everything looking almost like brand new, and it plays like a dreaain, I named my keyboard Scrappy because it’s a cute moniker and describes my instrument’s past accurately

After all, playing rew up an only child in North Dakota, and ed my interests Bob and Dorothy were older parents when they had me, and were over the moon to finally be blessed with a child afterAs a result, they’ve always supported est fans even to this day

Plus, I went to Juilliard—yes, the Juilliard—to major in piano performance, and to study under the best instructors Overall, it’s wonderful, but there have also been a lot of highs and lows For exaraduated from Juilliard with top marks, but every job see against hope that they’d see ot was a ized and said she’d accidentally e, what a downer

I don’tor cynical about my prospects, but at this point, I’m more likely to be hired as a dishwasher than as a professional musician To keep my skills up, I play once or twice a week at a joint called Ja, but what I make barely covers my water and electricity bills As a result, I had no choice but to find alternative ways toan escort

Yes, I’m that kind of escort The kind your irls in school whispered about behind cupped hands But it’s not that terrible, to be honest My agency, City Girls, doesn’t ask us to sleep with our clients Instead, the men pay for companionship, which usually means drinks and dinner But I admit that if a client is handsome and kind, then soht aive them the full monte, and these men are totally satisfied and sated after I’m done

But things have been getting too crazy, and it’s probably tio, I had a job in Jersey with a client naoing at it hot and heavy in his bedroo the deep penetration, when suddenly, a woman appeared in the doorway I know Brandon saw her I could tell that he are of her presence, but instead of stopping, he just took rippedlike a e woman to see

That’s why I want to leave City Girls now Things are getting really messed-up, and to be honest, I don’t want any part of sos to be honest and upfront, and you don’t get that when you’re an escort As a result, I took Brandon’s enerous bonus through the agency later, but honestly, I’d had enough It’s time for me to retire

Suddenly, ainst Scrappy’s fra headphones are so good at cutting out the din inunless it’s right next to led in ht with it for aOh no, I’er at City Girls, and my heart drops to my feet
