Later on that night, Jordan was at the hotel where her mom, Janice, and Bob were staying at. Jordan flopped down on one of the beds and waited for her mom to get back with something to drink. She heard the door click and open. "Hi mom..," She said.
"Its not your mother..," A mans voice said.
"Oh. Hi Bob."
Bob was a man around 45 or so with dark, almost black hair. He was around 6'3 and probably weighed around 210. To put it frankly, he was a drunk. He drank early in the morning, in the afternoon, at night, and probably before he went to bed. Jordan didn't know why her mother was with him, she could do so much better. "Well..what do you want?," Jordan said.
"Nothing..where's your mom?"
"She went out..she should be back in a few..," Jordan said finally turning towards him.
Bob had a beer in one hand and a cigarette in another. He sat down on the other bed and took a drink. "So..hows life in sunny Florida?"
Jordan crossed her arms in front of her and glared at him. "Just fine..do you have to drink at 6 p.m.??"
Bob glared right back at her, "Whats it to you when I drink or don't?"
"You know, all you are is a ugly-ass drunk.."
"You know, all you are is a whore.."
Jordan stood up and in a flash was right in front of him. "Take it back.," She practically growled.
"No."
"TAKE IT BACK YOU PRICK!!," She yelled.
Bob stood up and backhanded her. Jordan was thrown into the wall from the impact and put a hand up to her face. Tears pricked at her eyes. Bob came in front of her, she cringed from the smell of alcohol on his breath. "Your mother was right..you're nothing but a whore..thats whys he sent you here to live with your 'daddy'..who are you screwing now? Huh?," He hissed.
Jordan was cowering in the corner and still had a hand to her face. Bob reached down and grabbed her by her hair and pulled her up. Jordan yelped in surprise as he shoved her into the door. Jordan fought to get the door open. She finally did and slammed it in Bob's face. Crying, she went to the elevator and made her way out of the hotel as fast as she could.
