1 Chapter One

I really needed a new apartment. Starting a new life in the city of Las Vegas wasn't really smooth. I struggled to squat with my girlfriends. Soon, we planned to get a better apartment.

My girlfriends were my only family in as much as I lost my parents at age Eleven in a car accident.

I became a stripper in a night club in order to fend for my needs as well as my educational necessities, there in, I met with my girlfriends, who offered me shelter.

I managed to complete my education and aquired a job in a prestigious company. I really had to get a new apartment, at least to repay my best friends.

"Cutie! Wah are you thinking about?" Bessie asked jumping on the sofa.

"Just bothered about the apartment I saw online." I said worriedly.

"What's the hike babe?" Bessie asked again.

"The agent made me realize that the apartment has been abandoned for a couple of years and..." I paused.

"And wah?" Bessie asked again.

"And no one was willing to buy the apartment." I paused again.

"Why?" She asked farther.

"The owner was murdered right in the house." I said.

"Well erm... We can deal with ghosts." She mocked.

I laughed out loud and grabbed my notepad walking outside.

A few days interval, we arrived at the new apartment. It looked so creepy and quiet. We dragged our luggages into the apartment. It looked so amazing! Nice furnitures, smooth wall, three different rooms and a comfy kitchen. I smiled satisfactorily and quickly chose a room.

"I will take the room next to the kitchen." I said eyeing my friends.

"Smart choice Eva! Well, I will take the room next to yours." Bessie said and chuckled.

"I guess the last room is mine then." Pearl shrugged sadly.

We immediately went to our separate rooms and began to unpack. I walked into my room and immediately jumped on the bed. It felt so soft and comfy. I rosed up and quickly unpacked my luggages.

In a few minutes, I was done, I slipped out of my clothes and walked into the bathroom nude. I ran my fingers through the wash basin, mirror and bathtub. I felt someone's presence behind me, turning over I saw no one.

I sighed and walked towards the tub, I still felt I heard footsteps. I turned around again but saw no one. 'my imagination I guess' I said to myself and sat comfy in the bathtub.

I had a nice and warm bath. I grabbed my towel and tied it around my boobs. I stepped out of my bathroom and met a few of my clothes on the floor.

"But... I... I arranged this room before going to bath." I said staggerdly to myself. I washed it off and bent to pick them up. A dark shadow walked past me, I quickly stood up and tilted my head around the room.

"Hello! Anyone here?" I asked and immediately felt stupid for asking such. I slidded my night dress on and arranged my room once again.

"May I come in?" Pearl asked forcing her way in.

"Of course... It's your room as well." I said Bunning my hair.

"I have prepared dinner! Come out when you're done." She said

I nodded and quickly picked up my phone to send a few texts to the office. Immediately, my phone rang 'my boss' I sighed.

"Hello sir!" I said.

"Hello Eva! Why weren't you in the office today?" He asked.

"Am sorry sir! I just got an apartment and I had to move in." I explained.

"Really? Where's your new location now?" He asked.

"A few blocks away from our company's site." I explained.

"What! Why... Why there? Are you okay?" He vibrated.

"Of course sir! Any cause for alarm?" I asked curiously.

"Erm... No... See you tomorrow." He said hanging up the call instantly.

"He didn't even finish his reasons." I sighed and stepped out to eat.

*At The Dinning Table*

Pearl and Bessie were really joking out loud and there I was thinking about my boss actions. I kept fiddling with the food.

"What's eating you up?" Bessie asked breaking my thoughts.

"Oh! Erm... Nothing. Just stressed out." I lied.

"Yeah! You need to rest. Work begins tomorrow." Pearl added.

"Definitely! And am really working on taking you both out of your jobs." I said.

"Excuse you! The last time I checked we never complained. You were once a fucking stripper. So, don't rub it on our faces." Bessie yelled out.

"Well... Erm... I didn't mean it that way. Am sorry." I said sobberly.

"Oh please! Spare me the bullshit." Bessie yelled out.

"Girls! Let's not fight." Pearl pleaded.

"Why don't you tell this bitch not to give us that 'Holier Than Thou Attitude' she sucks at it." Bessie spat out.

"What part in 'Am Sorry' didn't you understand?" I fought back.

"Don't fucking try to prove smart. Ama whoop your fucking ass." She yelled.

"Lemme see you try." I yelled back and stormed out of sight.
