Death of a Vegas Showgirl Page #3

---

Yeah, I bet you would.

I'm the lead.

Oh, excuse me.

I'm in the chorus,

but I might be moving

to the front.

The choreographer is

giving me a chance, and...

By the way,

your body is amazing.

You sure don't waste

any time, huh?

I like that.

- I try not to.

- I like that!

So you been

here long?

What, sitting here?

You want

my life story? Okay.

I'm Puerto Rican.

I grew up in Baltimore.

I have a sister

that I love.

That's kind of boring.

Really? You think

my life is boring?

Wow.

No, no...

Okay, I was a cheerleader

for the Redskins for a year.

- Okay.

- I was.

I want something real.

Like, not your Facebook page.

Something real.

Let me think about it.

Something real.

Hit me.

I'm smart, and sexy.

Deadly combo.

Yeah, and beautiful.

Thank you.

You're very welcome.

What about you?

Get real.

Um...

my goal is to sing.

Oh, go ahead.

I'll listen.

I'm not going

to sing right now.

Sing!

I am not going

to sing right now!

Probably a good thing,

'cause I'd pretend

I didn't know you

if you did that.

Okay.

You around for Christmas?

Um, hmm...

I'm thinking

about going back home...

Okay.

But maybe

it's worth it if I stay.

Yeah, might be.

Well, I'm sorry

I'm not there this year.

It isn't Christmas without you.

Well, next year for sure.

I promise.

I'm glad you're with Celeste

and the kids, though.

Are you eating enough?

Ma, I'm fine, okay?

Yeah. Okay.

I love you!

I love you, too.

Hey, little sister.

How's it going?

I'm up for the lead

in a new number, girl.

That's so great!

Well, Mommy didn't seem

so thrilled.

She just misses you.

We all do.

Your home is here, Deb.

Right now, I have to do this.

I can't give up.

Be careful.

It's a crazy city.

Everyone thinks that,

but it's not that bad.

You'll see.

I'm going to get you out here

kicking and screaming

if I have to, okay?

That's a promise.

Give me one sec.

Oh, hi.

Thank you.

Sis, I've got to go.

You okay?

Never better.

My my, it's a pill

that can't be bought

A substance

can't be taught...

Okay, my resolution

is no more shopping.

Too many clothes.

Serious stuff.

I know, I'm already

going through withdrawal.

Let's drink to that.

...Steeper than a mountain

- The music's pounding...

- Mm!

One more.

Mine is

to take more chances,

not be so afraid.

Way to go,

Miss Nebraska.

...Your love

gets me higher than a drug...

I'm just kidding.

What is he doing here?

It's okay.

Just stay here.

You are not welcome here.

Chill, okay?

Happy New Year.

No, it's time for you

to leave.

Yeah? Says who?

Hey, what's the problem?

This is the guy

that assaulted Deb.

She's a little liar.

Time to go, bud.
