I looked at the ad.
'Make $5000 in 45 minutes.'
'Wanted, 1 female, age 18 to 25, to be used for 45 minutes.'
'Applicant will be used in a sexual manner for 45 minutes. Applicant is not expected to actively participate, passive participation is acceptable. No pain or damaging act will be inflicted upon applicant. Applicant will be picked up and returned to wherever applicant wishes. Travel time will not be included in the 45 minute act. Applicant will receive $500 at time of pick up, and the remaining funds at the conclusion of the act. Applicant will be expected to sign a release from any additional financial compensation not specified in the contract arising from the act performed. Furthermore, applicant will agree to sign a nondisclosure agreement of identity.'
Money had been tight. I had recently lost my job and was strapped for cash, and definitely needed the money. The ad kind of sounded like a rich guy who just wanted to get his rocks off. Non-disclosure agreement and probably an anti blackmail clause. Something that gave legal grounds to go after me if I pop up again. It made sense. I figured I could back out of it if I changed my mind. I replied that I was interested. Less than 10 minutes later I got an email back. It was a questionnaire.
I began to fill it out.
'Age?'
19.
'Ethnicity?'
Caucasian.
'Weight?'
137 pounds.
'Height?'
5'7".
'Hair Color?'
Red.
'Date of next menstruation period? If unknown, write date of start of last menstruation period.'
That made me pause for a second. An aversion to menstrual blood, or was it a fetish? I had just started 4 days ago, so I did some quick math and wrote the date.
'Please pick a health clinic for testing. All tests are covered, $50 will be paid for your time.' There was a list of 15 clinics.
I picked one that I knew was close to me.
'Most convenient time for visit to clinic?'
I wrote the word 'any' there. I had nothing better to do.
'Please write yes if you need transportation to the health clinic.'
I wrote no. It was right around the block, I could walk to it.
I sent the questionnaire out. I got a response back in a minute.
'An appointment has been scheduled for 1 hour at your clinic. A $50 check will be waiting for you there. We will contact you further after we receive the results. If you do not sign the waiver agreeing to allow us to receive the results, you will not have further contact with us. That documentation will be there with your check. Receiving your check is not conditional on releasing the medical documents to us. We will be in touch. Thank you.'
I got up and walked to the clinic. It only took me a couple minutes. I figured that I would greet whomever was delivering the check. I checked in at the front desk. I was disappointed. The nurse had a bank check for 50 dollars with the name details left blank. She put my name on after the fact. Apparently my soon to be employer had some sort of ongoing relationship with the clinic. I was also handed a form for medical release of documents. The nurse assured me that I could get a check up no matter if I signed the document or not, and that the clinic would respect my wishes where my privacy was concerned.
I examined the release. It didn't list any names, instead the documents were to be released to the paying party. It included several pages listing what the paying party was allowed and not allowed to do with the documents. It specified that they would be shredded after 45 days of being generated and that the paying party would not release the documents to anyone whom was not party to the agreement. I signed the document.
After about an hour, right at my designated appointment time, the nurse called me into the back. I handed her the signed agreement as she escorted me to an examination room. A female doctor was waiting on me, which was what a surprise. With all my previous experiences with doctors, I waited on them. I guess I technically had, as I hadn't been allowed to go to the back before my appointment.
I had a full and thorough examination, which included blood and urine testing, and a complete gynecological exam. When the exam was finished, the doctor told me that I was in apparent good health, and that the results of the laboratory testing would return in 3 days. I had the choice whether to go pick them up from the office or have them mailed to me. I chose to pick them up.
I picked up my results three days later. They showed that I was perfectly healthy. Later that evening I received an email.
'Sometime in the next week you will be contacted, and a driver will be dispatched to pick you up for your 45 minute act. If there are any times that you are unavailable, please list them now. If you have changed your mind, please let us know. Otherwise reply with your understanding. Thank you.'
I had butterflies in my stomach. I was basically about to agree to become an expensive prostitute. I had no interviews lined up, so I replied that I was available anytime, all week.
I didn't receive a response until the end of the week. It was a simple statement.
'A driver is ready to be dispatched to pick you up. Please reply with a location of where to get you. You will be given the estimated time of arrival as soon as we get the address. Thank you.'
I replied with an address right around the corner. The time came back almost instantly. 10 minutes. It gave me no time to get ready. I quickly threw on a cute dress and hustled to the pickup location. A black sedan was waiting there. It has taken me 12 minutes arrive.
The driver was standing outside the car, the driver's side door open. He watched me approach.
"You're a little bit late." He said. "You are here for the ride, right?"
"Yeah." I replied.
"Here." He said, handing me a stack of papers.
It was the non disclosure agreement and release of financial responsibility that had been mentioned in the ad. They read a little bit weird, but didn't appear to contain anything objectionable, so I signed them. I handed them to the driver, and he handed me five hundreds in return.
"You want to deposit that in your bank before we go?" He asked me.
"No. I would like... Let's just get this over with." I answered.
I put the cash in my purse next to my phone. I figured if they were going to hurt me or cheat me there was enough of a trace that they would get caught. Still, at home I left a note detailing everything. I also had a gps tracking and microphone app active on my phone, uploading to the cloud.
