Jane thinks back to what her life will be like when she has to live in that situation, being beaten and brutally tortured by others if she works wrongly in a prostitution ring or a hard job. .
The big ship had been sailing on the sea for many days, because she and everyone were in the dark cabin, so she did not know day and night. It's just that Jane found out she'd been here for days by taking a pile of straw entangled with another as a symbol.
The people on the train brought some food for them every other day, including canned food, bread crumbs, and some water. At least the traffickers had a little mercy to feed Jane and everyone else here, it was indeed a rare blessing right now to still be fed by them without going hungry for days. The women took the food and shared it with each other, they took care of each other because now there is no one else to help them but to fend for themselves.
On the fourth day, after three days of sailing on the water, it docked well past midnight, when all the women on board, including Jane, were sleeping in the cabin when the other men dragged their heads, They urged everyone to move quickly, slowly going down, each one was responsible for guarding five women. In it, the group of Jane and Wendy is a tall, thin man holding a big iron that constantly threatens:
"Whoever tries to run away, I'll beat them to death."
Wendy heard that name say that and had a sarcastic smile on her lips, she knew that the name was only lying because no one is stupid enough to beat them to death, if the goods are damaged, they will not be sold, and If the goods disappear, it will be considered as a loss of the entire amount. So Wendy showed no fear at the guard's shouts.
Meanwhile Jane looked around and saw that there were many boats and ships here, it seemed that this place was a seaport to enter a certain country. She hasn't been outside for a few days, so when she stepped out of the ship's compartment, she felt the cool breeze in the middle of the night of the seaport, making Jane a little comfortable even though her heart is now very scared when she doesn't know that what will her fate be like in the days to come?
And Jane quietly obeyed the guard's arrangement, she followed a small group of people to follow in the footsteps of those men onto a large truck. Jane observes that they have five different cars in all, Jane gets on one of the cars and sits next to a thin woman, she looks all over the car for Wendy but still can't find her here, Jane guessed maybe Wendy was arranged by them in another truck. Then they slammed the car door closed tightly to prevent a mouse from getting in and then drove the car away for a while. The big truck that had been moving for a long time had also arrived, and the women were taken to an old factory outside the remote suburbs, where the fields were wild and the street lights flickered as if rusted from rust from not been repaired for a long time.
When they got there, they split up to work, the people from inside the big trucks moved down slowly, then gathered in the yard of a factory. The women they arranged in a vertical line, there were four rows in all, equivalent to four middle-aged women with rough faces and cheesy makeup standing in front of the line to check on the girls. And a women categorize them including Jane are marked on their arms by a red X and a blue X, depending on their shape and appearance, they will be classified differently. Jane didn't understand what their purpose was, but it seemed they were sorting out the whereabouts of the women who were brought here.
After a while, they finished sorting and handing each group to another trafficker, Jane saw a few others counting money and then handed it directly to a few opposite men in another group. This group seems more thug when one of them has several women in it, the face looks very unpleasant and fierce. Jane and Wendy were lucky to be still in a group, another group of people loaded them into the truck. But before moving to the car, all of the people were covered by a black cloth and their hands were tied behind the back by the traffickers.
When Jane was opened by them, she saw an extremely orgy scene, it was a large bar located on a busy street with brightly lit lights, inside the room were girls serving drinks and naked serving the entertaining men. It seemed that this room was underground, or rather a basement, so the groaning sound in the room was not heard by anyone outside.
Those women are all very young and beautiful with attractive and fiery bodies. They didn't care about people like Jane who had just arrived, continuing to joke around with alcohol, drugs and stimulating porn.
Jane was completely surprised and scared when she saw this scene for the first time, it was worse than the images she had imagined in her mind when working hard in an ordinary bar and being bullied by Mr. his mistress ordered. It seemed that what Jane once thought was too simple compared to the harsh reality unfolding in front of her.
And perhaps before serving such tactful guests, they must undergo a small training of the person in charge. It was a middle-aged woman holding a short whip standing in front of the stairs waiting for Jane's people to step forward to teach, when Jane approached, she noticed that she was indeed older than her age with thick makeup. It is thick enough to hide its signs of aging, with cheap perfume to attract men coming here.
After Jane heard that woman introduce a few words, Jane learned that her name was Demut, a mother here who trains girls to be perfect counting girls to best serve the guests when they arrive. At this bar, every time there was a threat or a reminder, Demut raised his sharp eyebrows at the same time as he raised his crow-like nose, stroking his messy blond hair behind to make everyone are also terrified because she looks like a devil ready to kill people at any time when someone disobeys her will.
Standing next to Demut was Booth, a tall, scarred man who was one of her protectors and lover. Booth crossed his arms, staring at the girls with a covetous look, when he was warned by Demut's eyes he stopped that posture and continued to obey her orders. He was divided by Demut for guard duty at the door when the girls entered a large room in the basement and gathered there. Inside, Demut motioned for everyone to take off their clothes in front of her and then change clothes here.
They all looked at each other for a moment and then did, and before changing into new clothes, Demut motioned for them to stand in line naked for a few minutes so she could check. Only if Demut approves, they will be allowed to change into new clothes, otherwise they will have to put on their old clothes and move to another room to wait for the next assignment. Jane and Wendy both passed this assessment along with the other three, who changed into new clothes and looked at the other five with scared faces as they walked into another room. From the original ten people to now only five people in a room, Jane now feels even more worried and insecure about her future fate.
Jane had changed into a body-hugging dress, she put this on for the first time and it was a bit strange at times. It was a striking red dress with a short length that showed off her white thighs, it was slim and backless plus Jane was not allowed to wear underwear which made her uncomfortable exposing her curve and body out like this. Jane shyly used her hand to hide the prominent part of the exposed nipple that peeked out from the delicate layer of her shirt. While Wendy didn't mind that, her face showed a cold expression as she looked at her surroundings indifferently.
Demut waited for the girls to finish changing, she motioned to Booth to pack the ragged and dirty clothes and throw them away, then separated Wendy and Jena, Demut took Wendy and another girl in the group go out of the room, now there are only three of the five people left in the room. The three of them looked at each other sadly, Jane feeling worried for Wendy and the other girl as Demut took them away.
After 5 hours had passed, Wendy and the other girl returned to the room covered with whip marks and bruises all over their faces. The other girl's clothes were torn in a large part at the shoulder, revealing a pitiful breast, and Wendy's hair was disheveled with tears smeared on her beautiful face that was decorated with match makeup. Jane ran over and hugged Wendy, impatiently asking:
"What happened?"
Wendy sadly replied:
“Training, beating, forcing. If you don't do it, you will be beaten until you do it obediently."
Jane observed Wendy and the other girl curiously asked:
“I see you don't have as many injuries as the other girl. So you agree to listen to their request?”
Wendy nodded:
"Yeah, I have to or I'll get beaten up like that girl."
Jane graciously continued to ask:
"So what did they make you do?"
Wendy couldn't keep her composure, she broke down in tears and replied:
“The first training session, they made me lick a man's penis and make him happy. When he wanted to have sex with me, he was asked by Demut to pay more, he disagreed and argued loudly with her. Demut was upset, so he sent someone to get him out of here, and me and the other girl were released.”
Jane heard that and hugged Wendy to comfort her, she cried with Wendy because she had to face and endure this cruel fate:
“Wendy, everything will be fine, don't cry. We have to be stronger to get through this situation.”
Jane and Wendy hugged each other tightly, the other three girls in the room also went to hug the two of them, all sobbing and warming each other to soothe their own worries and fears.
The next morning, it seemed that there was some trouble outside the bar, when the two policemen came, and then they left with Demut's annoyed face, she paced the room. said something to Booth in a nagging tone, berating him for being careless for letting criminal guests in, leading to a fight and a fight that injured a wealthy guest.
It seemed that Demut wanted to take a day off to focus on handling this incident, so that night, things were quieter than usual as only a few loyal customer service girls were inside. Thanks to that, the girls had a normal day to rest today, they weren't subjected to Demut's strict training. But instead, Wendy suddenly fell ill when last night she experienced the incident, had a nightmare and cried all night. Towards morning, Wendy had a fever and Jane had to stay by her side to take care of her.
In order to get the medicine, Jane went to Demut to ask for it, but she never gave it to anyone so easily. So to get medicine for Wendy, Jane must follow Demut's require, obediently serve men or do labor work for a day in the basement. Jane did not want to serve men at all, so she nodded in agreement to immediately go to work for a day. Jane has been used to hard manual labor since childhood, so this bit of work did not make it difficult for her.
Jane started working immediately, she took a broom and a bucket of water, went to the areas that Mrs. Demut wanted her to clean, which were the toilets and the cells of the previous girls, who had been imprisoned for refusing to serve guests . The rooms in this place weren't cleaned often in the first place because it was rare for anyone to do this kind of work, so now it's really horrible with the strong stench rising up along with the scum, human waste, condom waste, drug needles and plastic bags, paper from stimulant pills and dirty makeup, and all the other horrors Jane has to face, she must clean up and clean them by herself.
Jane, even if she feels nauseous while working, is forced to complete because at least she still keeps herself pure and does not yield or surrender to her fate. And more importantly, Jane does this to help Wendy, a very good friend to her. Jane couldn't let Wendy suffer from that fever. So Jane encouraged herself to make her stronger:
“Doing this is better than being raped and serving those men.”
Finally, after a day of hard work with stains on her body, Jane also finished the work she was assigned by Mrs. Demut, she happily accepted the medicine from Demut's hand and happily ran back to her room. , where Wendy is having a fever. After Wendy took the medicine from Jane's hand and eating some porridge, her health was much better, her body was less hot and her skin was ruddy again. Wendy thanked Jane so much for caring and taking care of her devotedly.
Jane took advantage of Wendy's rest to take a shower and wash her tight dress again, there was no soap here because it was during training so Jane had to accept it, she washed the red dress with water and dry it in a corner of the room. While waiting for the clothes to dry, Jane took a temporary blanket to wrap herself to keep warm, although the red dress was not very fragrant, there was still a little stain and smell, but at least it was better than the original.
For Jane that is enough with a long day of hard work, she will have to wake up early tomorrow morning, start her new day. And so on, the little girl slowly fell into a deep sleep until she was awakened by Mrs. Demut's scolding the next morning when she came in to check if the girls had escaped or not?
Jane sat up dreamily, wearing a red dress that was still a little damp on her body, she went to the bathroom to clean herself and her body, then went out to have breakfast with the food distributed along with the other girl in the room. Maybe Wendy had woken up early and had breakfast in front of everyone, so she was more relaxed, standing in front of a large mirror hanging on the wall, applying makeup on herself. Wendy put a thick layer of powder on her bruised face and said:
"You should get ready too, Jane, it will your turn tomorrow."
