Camel Girl
She gazes into the glistening glass of the camera's lens.
"1...2...3--FLASH"
"You stupid bitch!!!"
His hard knuckles slam into her soft jaw.
"HONEY, don't flinch! It's only a goddamn camera! What the hell's the matter with this girl?!"
She finds herself on the floor, holding her jaw, nursing her ghost pain. Her eyeliner streaks down her face, ruining her perfect pin-up mask.
"I'm sorry!!" she chokes out. "Give me another try!!"
"Time is money, sugartits!! Who the fu--"
"PLEASE!!! JUST ONE MORE TIME!! I'M SORRY!!! PLEASE!!!!"
He flinches with mercy or pity.
"Okay.... But it's coming out of your paycheck!"
She scrambles to the dressing room and scrubs the makeup off. Feeling some sort of comfort from the cold water, she calms down and chases a valium with a whiskey sour.
"Goddammit, girl! Wake up!!"
She glares at herself hard, wipes her face off with a towl, and reapplies her makup as fast as womanly possible. As the boar's hair brush passes over her silky hair, she feels the valium sweep over her. Looks in the mirror and smiles.
"I'm ready!!" she calls, appoaching the red X infront of the lights.
"About fuckin' time!"
She picks up the cigarette props and smiles into the camera.
