Johanna got up in the afternoon alike she always did after working all night. She sat at the vanity in her little room on top of the Snakebite saloon. She looked over at the bed where her last customer had been last night and sighed. She hated doing this but when your father cares more for gambling and drinking that his own daughter, theses sorts of things happen. She began to brush out her hair it would be a little while before she could use the tub the other more experienced girls always had first dibs. "Whats going to become of you Johanna, if you were a normal girl you'd be starting to think about who your going to marry and how many young-ins your going to have", she stood and walked over to the window and looked out on the town of Sweet Haven, "I wonder what Travis doing right now", she said aloud to the empty room. She noticed how her thought always traveled back to her childhood friend, back to a more innocent time. They now 18 year old Travis had taken the position of Sheriff a job that someone much older should have taken but no one had the gumption but him. "Jo!", Johanna turned to see Miss Kitty the madame standing in her doorway, "Yes mam" she said the older woman smiled at the young girl. Miss Kitty didn't like taking them so young as Johanna but its wasn't her choice with Johanna. "Sugar it your turn for the bath", said Miss Kitty. "Yes mam", said Johanna, the young 16 year old girl picked up the clothes she had set out before and made her way to the bathroom. The older woman smiled as the young girl walked past her, she didn't thin the young girl deserved her fate. But what could she do.
