Because of the strong desire to give the best treatment for her mother after her stroke, Samantha was forced to accept the offer to dance for a client, Mr. MC. She is a private sexy dancer of a wealthy man. She hasn't seen his face not even once because he always wears a masquerade mask when she dances in front of him. She needs to give him a good show to warm his night just by dancing. Just watch, no-touch, that's it! When she got to know his personality, she gradually fell in love with the man. Will she be able to fight how she feels with the person who pays her just because of her body? What if the agreement ends when the woman he was supposed to marry returns?
She was wearing a red bra trying to cover the entirety of her healthy breasts. Only about half of her breasts were able to be covered by her bra. A sexy red lace panty was also the only thing she was wearing below. Her hips swayed following the slow and sexy beat of the music. She practiced that dance moves many times. She was flirting while dancing.
In front of her was a man sitting while watching her dance. She couldn't see what he looks like because he was wearing a masquerade mask. He always wears a sweatshirt with a large Bunny print in the middle.
In terms of his physique, she estimates that the man is in his early thirties. As usual, he was motionless while watching her.
She turned her back on him. Her hands went to her back so she can unhook her bra. When it was removed she raised one hand holding her bra and then waved it in the air then threw it on the floor near her client.
She slowly faced the man while covering both her breasts with both arms. She saw his reaction. He seemed to swallow a large lump in his throat. One hand went to his chin while not taking his gaze away from her. The only thing she could see were his eyes.
Her only job is to seduce him and tease him by just dancing. She is not obliged to show her naked body but she just needs to tickle the imagination of her only client. She bit her lower lip and lay down on her apparent stage while not removing her arms from her chest. She opened her thighs as she lies down, enough for him to peek a little at the gem hidden there.
The music stopped and it only means one thing. She's done for the night.
She immediately took the large piece of cloth she had prepared to cover her body after the show that was on the stage floor. She covered herself, especially her bare chest. She stopped looking at the man and went straight to the restroom inside that room. She feels very dirty every time she finishes dancing. She has been doing that for five months. She also has only one customer.
She is Samantha Custodio, twenty-four years old. She was eighteen when she worked as a waitress in a bar owned by her gay boss Bryce, better known as Diva. He gave her a job when she and her mother left her stepfather. Her mother's partner tried to rape her so her mother stabbed him. She doesn't know what happened to her stepfather after that night. They traveled to Manila from Olongapo. They fled their home before her mother got arrested.
Her mother used to sell comfort in Olongapo. An American customer got her mother pregnant and she was the result. She doesn't know her father because her mother had only slept with his father once.
She says she looks like her father. She has a pointed nose and long eyelashes. She was always called a doll in their school before because she has a beautiful face. Her shoulder-length blonde hair is wavy, that's the natural color of her hair. Her mother stopped selling her body when she became pregnant. Her mother worked as a saleslady in a small store while she was pregnant.
She was ten years old when her mother brought a man to their house and introduced him to be her stepfather. She didn't have a good feeling for the man but she didn't say a word. The guy became a good provider to them but he sometimes touched her arm and hand with malice. She did not tell her mother because she saw that she was very happy with him. She was the one who voluntarily avoided her stepfather so that there would be no trouble. Her stepfather paid for her education and treated her so special that her mother thought it was a father's love.
When she turned eighteen, he gave her presents almost regularly. She refused all of his gifts and every time she does that her stepfather gets angry.
One night when her mother was away, the man became presumptuous. He pulled her into the bedroom when she was left alone with him. Abruptly, she kicked him in the middle of his thighs so she was able to run to the kitchen but he got even madder. He pulled her hair trying to drag her inside the room again.
Her mother caught them in such a situation. She tried to remove her partner's hand from her daughter's hair but the man pushed her to the floor. To his surprise, her mother suddenly approached her stepfather again and stabbed the man in his belly.
Her stepfather let go of her hair and cried out in pain. She even saw blood flow down his belly. Her mother quickly pulled her away and they couldn't bring any more belongings. Her mother just took the money from the man's wallet and they hurriedly left their house.
They ended up in Manila with nothing but themselves. Diva saw them sitting on the bench in the park. He was a gay man who still dressed like a guy but you can tell right away that he is not straight. They must have looked so pitiful because Diva went to them to give them food and interviewed them. Her mother told him the whole story.
Diva said it was a good thing that he and his boyfriend were looking for a maid so he offered her mother to work with them. They immediately agreed and she decided to also help her mother for free since she will also live with the gay couple together with her mother.
The couple's house was so big. Even though Diva is gay, he doesn't dress like a woman. He still looks like a guy but his fingers are flapping. His voice is also very gentle almost like a woman's voice.
Diva soon gave her a job as a waitress at the bar owned by his boyfriend. Many sexy dancers were dancing on the stage and she found out that some of them were going out with the customers.
The women were not forced to go with the clients. It was their choice. Going out with the customers is no longer included in their work as bar dancers. The customers of the bar are obviously wealthy because that bar is exclusive to members who paid membership fees every year.
The couple has two maids including her mother. In the morning she sleeps because she works at night as a waitress.
She did not expect that one day they would rush her mother to the hospital. It was a mild stroke. Diva paid for the hospital bill until her mother was released. Her mother could no longer move so she was always in bed.
From then on, she did not want to accept the salary given to her by her bosses as a waitress because she knew she still owed them a lot.
What still bothers her is that she has to find a physical therapist for her mother so that she will not be completely paralyzed because half of her body is still unable to move.
Diva once spoke to her intensely. She knew they seemed to be a burden to them but she didn't hear anything from the gay man who gave them shelter and food and even her mother's medicines.
"Sam, please don't take it the wrong way. I know you need money for your mother's complete recovery. A customer approached me and he was ready to pay thirty thousand every week for just one hour. You just need to dance in front of him and that's it. You don't have to give your body. All he wants is for you to dance. You also don't have to undress. You just have to tease him by dancing, " he explained at length.
"I- I can't do that," she quickly refused.
"I know and I won't force you. I'm just concerned for your mother's health. This is the answer to your prayer. You won't sell your body. You'll just dance. Don't decide now. Think about it, "Diva said smiling and even touching her on the shoulder.
She entered the room that she shared with her mother while thinking about what Diva had said. She stared at her mother. She woke up and raised one hand when she saw her. She was already having difficulty with that simple gesture.
"S-sa-mmm ... maaan..tha ..." even calling her name was difficult because her mouth was already hard to move after her stroke. The doctor said that it would return to normal when she will have her own therapist.
She quickly approached her mother. She pointed to the water on the table next to the bed. She took the glass filled with water. She first helped her mother get up so that she can drink the water. There is still a little water pouring on the side of her mother's mouth because she cannot open her mouth properly.
She wanted to cry because of her mother's pitiful condition but she stopped herself because she didn't want her mother to see her like that. She also needs to reassure her mother.
If she will just rely on her salary as a waitress, she probably wouldn't be able to get her mother treated even if she had to save for a few more years. Unless she agrees to go out with the customers and sell her body. She felt a shiver of disgust just thinking about that.
She remembered again what Diva had said. She would earn thirty thousand per week for just one hour of dancing every night. She doesn't have to give up her body. The client will just look and will never touch her body.
The man allegedly liked her when he saw her one night at the bar. He is not an exclusive customer of the bar. Diva said that the client's friend only took him one night to have some fun, that was the night he saw her at the bar.
She put her mother back to bed. She saw her immediately closed her eyes again to go back to sleep. She felt sorry for her mother's condition so she decided to accept the client's offer.

When Brent thought that she still had feelings for Nick, he suddenly left and disappeared without a word. That's when Nick finally pursued her for real. But why, instead of being happy-finally noticed by Nick as a woman-did her heart keep longing for Brent? Brent, who hadn't reached out to her since the night when something almost happened between them.
