Gloria had been waiting outside for the past 20 minutes. Jane wasn't the type to waste time dressing up. It was already 9:30 pm, and they needed to start going home right now. She couldn't afford to go home so late. She had a lot to do at home. Gloria waited for another five minutes, but still no sign of Jane, she decided to go get her herself
Gloria came into the changing room to a very disturbing scene; Jane was already almost naked. Her clothes were already torn into pieces and that bastard son of a bitch was almost having his way, Jane was struggling hard
"hey you son of a bitch let her go" Gloria shouted, the man looked back and gave her a sarcastic smile
"you better mind your business, blonde. I want this girl and am going to have her. I've been wanting her for long, but she doesn't seem to understand sign language, so you better leave," he replied and continued with what he was doing; he was already kissing her all over the face and neck. Jane tried to move but she couldn't she was damn scared, the scene of that day kept playing in her head and she couldn't stop crying. But still, she wasn't going to give up. She would rather die than have this son of a bitch take her.
Gloria was confused she didn't know what to do, she knew trying to get the man of Jane was a total waste of time. The guy was quite big, and there was no point involving Dante. He's going to pretend like he didn't see anything, and the police, the idiot, would probably have his way before they got here. Horror and fear were evident on her face as she tried to come up with a solution.
There was no way she would allow Jane to be raped right in front of her; then her eyes traveled to a flower vase right on the dressing table ' I just hope he doesn't die,' she thought to herself.
She quickly picked up the vase and smashed it on his head. The flower vase broke on his head, and blood started coming out of his head and nose; the man slumped and fell to the ground. Gloria went over to him to check if he was still breathing, thankfully he was; she then ran over to Jane. Jane had already brought her knees up to face and was crying, a lot of emotions were going through her at the moment fear, anger, gratitude, and a whole lot
"hey Jane so sorry I didn't come early enough that guy is such a jerk," Gloria said but Jane just wouldn't stop crying
"Jane, come on, stop crying. It's over now. Let's get out of here now. Before someone sees us, come on, let's go," Gloria said. Jane finally put herself together and stood up
" but I can't go out like this he spoilt my clothes" Jane finally said
" I have some spare clothes in here, let's check" Gloria interjected, Gloria looked through the wardrobe found a gown, and threw it at her
"here wear this" Jane grabbed the clothes and wore it
"Look, Jane, I know you are really kinda traumatized right now, but you need to be fast before any of those sharp-mouth girls come in here and find this man here; I don't want to go to jail, or do you? " Gloria said with worry written all over her face
"is he dead?" Jane asked, " I don't think so, now hurry up." Jane finally dressed up and they both stepped out of the club.
"Can I stay with you tonight?" Jane asked, Gloria looked at her with her eyes widened
"you want to sleep over at my house?" Gloria asked looking surprised
"Yeah it's just that I can't go home like this, Chris can't see me this way, I will leave early in the morning, I promise," Jane said
"no, it's fine. You can stay as long as you want; I am just surprised that you want to sleep out, Jane, I know, never sleeps outside her house. Come on let's get going it's past ten already we might have to trek home"
"All right, I will just call Mrs Whitney then." Jane brings out her phone, and she already has 12 missed calls, all 9 from Mrs Whitney and 3 from Zain. Zain is Juliet, her neighbor's younger brother. He moved into the neighborhood with his sister and her family just last year. He had just finished college and came to New York to look for a job, and he was really lucky he got a job just a month later. She didn't know the details, but he seemed to earn well, and he was nice to her.
They must all be worried sick about her, she dialed Mrs Whitney's number, but but the phone did not even ring for up to 5 seconds, she must still be up waiting for her she thought
"Hello Mrs Whitney"
"Jane gracious God where are you and where did you put your phone for goodness sake I've been so worried," Mrs Whitney said almost crying
"I'm so sorry Mrs. Whitney something came up, I won't be coming home tonight but I will be home first thing tomorrow morning," Jane said
"what! why, what happened, are you okay?" Mrs Whitney bombarded her with questions
"I'm fine, don't worry about me I will tell you everything tomorrow I promise, goodnight", with that she disconnected the call and sighed
" she was really worried," she said to Gloria
"I can imagine" Gloria replied her
"oh see thank God, a bus is coming"
