Chapter 9

When Jade got to the parlor later, the girls noticed her agitation and questioned her but Jade didn’t want to bring Kate here. Otherwise, she might as well cry at the kitchen table.

Nikki was there, but not Sasha. There was a new girl, Danielle. She had long red hair and green eyes. She came from another parlor owned by the same man. Danielle used to be a masseuse but became a receptionist once she became pregnant with her daughter. Jade thought Danielle had probably made a fortune with the men. She was average height and all softness, with large breasts and a bottom and legs to match. She was very beautiful. Voluptuous was the only way to describe her, and she seemed very nice and unaffected by the business.

Jade wasn’t scheduled to work. Danielle was not sure whether to let her stay, until Jade said she didn’t mind sitting out the clients if the other girls complained. She explained she didn’t want to go home, and Danielle nodded without asking any questions, though Jade saw the curiosity in her eyes. She liked her for her delicacy.

It was a quiet morning, so when Danielle told Jade a client named Christian called to book her, she looked happy for the business. He was due to arrive in fifteen minutes.

Jade’s heart stopped. She couldn’t hide her anxiousness as she shook her head. “He can have someone else.”

“Why? Did he do something?”

“He’s just too sexy,” Nikki piped up.

Danielle laughed. “I think you need something like that today.” Her eyebrows rose. “I can smell relationship problems.”

“You’re in a relationship?” Nikki exclaimed. “You told me you didn’t have a boyfriend.”

Jade had forgotten her lie. “I’m sorry. I just don’t like talking about it.”

“I’m not surprised.” Nikki didn’t seem to care about the fib, which made Jade smile, until she added, “Since he obviously hasn’t touched you in ages.”

Jade stared at her, dumbstruck. She couldn’t argue, not with everything she’d already admitted.

Danielle’s comprehension moved off her like steam. “Is that it? No romance?”

Jade shrugged. “It’s a long story.”

“Is he good to you?”

Jade studied her hands and felt Nikki lean forward with curiosity.

Danielle stepped forward. “It’s obvious you don’t want to talk about it.”

“I think you’ve missed your calling, Danielle. You should’ve studied psychology.”

The receptionists smile was radiant. “Actually I am taking a night course in counseling, and I think you need to let someone be nice to you.”

“Even if he’s a client?”

“Especially if he’s a client. Let him spoil you. Anyway, he didn’t seem like the typical ones we get. He was nervous, and when I told him you were here, he was delighted and very thankful.”

“Still, if it wasn’t me, it would have been someone else.”

“He left before you came. He stayed for you.” Nikki back straightened as she spoke.

“The guy you’re with outside, do you think if he wasn’t with you, he’d be with someone else?” Danielle asked.

“No, I think he’s with me and fucking all the women around him.” Jade brought her hand to her mouth.
