JACOB

Seeing the lights in Vegas brought back a lot of memories, both good and bad. Celia and Layla were both knocked out asleep in the car when I made it to Las Vegas Blvd. I drove up and down the strip observing the array of flashing lights and half naked women, both tourist and show girls walking the strip. I missed partying in Vegas and indulging in all of the sinful pleasures the city had to offer, but I knew I had to stay focused because our money was low and it was now three mouths to feed. I turned down a side street and pulled into a motel parking lot. When I put the car in park and turned off the engine, both the girls started waking up and coming back to life.

“Are we here?” Celia asked rubbing her eyes.

“Yeah we made it.” I said looking up at the night sky. I got out the car and headed into the motel to get us a double bed room. I had to try and save as much money as I could so we could flip it on the tables. I had started out with four stacks, but my money was quickly dwindling with food and gas costs. The attendant took my cash and gave me the room key and I headed back outside to the girls.

“Get ya’ll stuff, I got the room.” I told them.

“Jacob!” Celia said with much attitude. “What the hell is this place? You know I don’t stay in no cheap shit.” She said looking around at the trash in the parking lot.

“We low on money, so unless you going to pull some money out your ass, this where we staying tonight.” I told her as I turned around and headed up the steps to find our room. I could hear them both grumbling as they pulled their bags out the car. I walked into the room and switched on the lights, the girls piled in the room shortly after and each sat down on separate beds.

“So who are you going to sleep with tonight, Jacob?” Celia asked sarcastically.

I chuckled and sat down in the ripped cushion chair by the door. “I’m going to sleep right here and guard the door.”

“Whatever nigga.” Celia said pulling the comforter off the bed and laying down.

“You good, Layla?” I asked because she wasn’t talking much and looked zoned out. I had to make sure she wasn’t going to have another flip out session.

“Yeah…” She mumbled before doing the same as Celia.
