CHAPTER 1

That morning she woke up pretty early, contrary to what usually happened.

She still had makeup on her face; she had not had the desire to take it off the night before, as she was too tired and maybe even a little tipsy. In fact, she could smell champagne on the blouse she had worn for the evening. The light slipping insistently between the shutters bothered her, but she did not want to get up to close the curtain and so she hid under the pillow as she used to do when she was little and had to get up to go to school and she hid more and more at every call of her mother, pretending not to hear her.

But this time even if they called her, she would not answer. She was going by another name. She had thought so much about which name to give herself; it was supposed to be a simple name to remember, but at the same time sexy enough to attract immediately before even seeing her. Among many names she decided to call herself Jade even though she often regretted it because new and more favorite names came to her constantly, but by now she was Jade, and since she had promised herself that this life would not last long, she unconsciously shrugged as if to convince herself that it would soon be over and so it was not important to change.

She did not know that man and on the phone he had asked her to dress as if she had to go out on Saturday afternoons for a walk downtown and then she wore a pair of jeans and a white blouse and brown heeled shoes that perfectly matched that purse. Well, perhaps it took her a while to decide which shoe to wear, given that in the small wardrobe she had a countless number among models and colors.

Those jeans highlighted her back in a spectacular way and wearing high-heeled shoes without socks she could be sexy in a simple way. She was willowy and thin but not too much; she had a walk that looked like a dance over those heels. She used to wear sunglasses larger than her face and long black hair gathered in a tail that made her look taller than she was. All the men turned to look at her when she passed, even those who were in the company of wives or girlfriends could not help but look at her. After all, even their girl-partners could not help but take a look.

She puts her hand in her purse on the chair and searches for the cash the man had given her for her company. She was terribly afraid
