From Princess White to Slave Bitch to BBC
Chapter - 01
I will tell you an earlier story about when I was married for two years to a handsome Dutchman and we lived in Amsterdam. He had a good job and when I moved there, I stopped working.
At first everything was wonderful, I was his princess and he my prince but time is extinguishing the fires and life, when your husband is always busy and absorbed by work, it becomes pure monotony, friends, shopping and I, who had always been restless and enterprising, I began to feel like a simple beautiful vase.
One day I could no longer cope with the monotony, and I told my husband Brenhard that I needed to work, that the situation of doing nothing was suffocating and boring.
When I met him in Spain, I am originally from Barcelona and my name is Alicia, I was on holiday, I had my job and an active social life. Now I was just "his wife" and at the moment, I didn't want to have children yet, so I told him I was going to take up my job again.
At first he didn't like the idea, but he understood my desire to be useful again on my own.
Again I contacted the people I had worked with in the Software world and finally, as I was known for my previous good work, they offered me a job as an engineering on a new project that they were developing for the Company, but... .. , the position and the development team were in London.
When I told Bernhard, he said no, to look for something closer, in Amsterdam itself or within the Netherlands so that we could continue to see each other daily.
Finding a job like this was almost impossible, besides, I felt that I needed more space for myself, to be more financially independent and also to get away from the routine that I was enduring.
I told him that I was thinking of taking the job, and that we would see each other often, I just had to take a flight on the weekends to be together.
His anger was monumental, because he did not want me to go to another city far from him, but since I had already decided, and knew about my stubbornness, she had no choice but to accept the situation.
When he accompanied me to the airport and we said goodbye until the next weekend, when I would return to spend it at home, I noticed that I was sad, but I must admit that taking the flight was something I needed, to feel free without being all the time stuck between his family, my friends and the boring married life.
When I landed at City Airport, the closest to the city and used by business people, I took a taxi to the Company Office located on Black-s Rd.
Once there, I was given an update on my work department and my colleagues, and they told me that I would stay in a Company flat located in the Canary Warf Area, a small duplex on the 16/17 floor of Trinity Tower C and that I was quite close to work.
Relieved that I had escaped from my golden cage in Amsterdam, I felt free again, to breathe for myself. For me, that was what I wanted to get back.
I loved Brenhard, but his control over was suffocating.
The first week of work was liberating for me, until I returned to spend the weekend with my husband and..., his family. As usual.
When I took the flight back to London again, I felt free again.
This coming and going lasted a month or so, until we decided to space out my trips to Amsterdam.
Now I would have more time for myself in the City, and not just work and come home.
Without having to return to Amsterdam on the weekends, we met up with two of our colleagues, co-workers, to go out on Friday night for a drink and get to know Piccadilly.
We arranged to go out that night and we were walking and having a drink in Piccadilly, then one of the girls said about going to the Candem Jazz cafe, a great choice where I enjoyed Jazz, which I am in love with.
It is a place with elegant glamor and good musicians.
In the following weeks we also went to the Minystre of Sound to enjoy intense nights dancing House.
Until we went back to the Jazz cafe Camden, a place that intoxicated me with its warmth and atmosphere.
