This story follows on from part one, although you can read it without reading part one it's probably best that you read part one first.

After that first time I was able to do a few more duo sessions with Joy all of this led me to realise that I wanted to take things further. That would mean seeing clients alone and starting to build up my own business. This would not be easy, in the first place I still worked in an office and in the second place I didn't want to entertain clients in my own home. I was able to talk all of this through with Joy.
Joy suggested that for the two days a week that I was not at my office job, Monday and Thursday, I could use her apartment to see clients. For the short term it would be a workable solution and although I would have to pay Joy for the use of the apartment it wasn't a large amount. Generally Joy didn't work on Monday's so I would have the place to myself. On Thursdays we would have to work around each other. So far my whole journey so far had been little steps into the unknown and going solo would tae me deeper into the rabbit hole.
I also had decided that alongside escorting I was going to start my own nail business. I had trained and worked as a nail technician to help with money when I was at university reading politics. Ultimately my plan was to be able to quit my office job and split my time 50-50 between escorting and nail work. The nail work would also be the reason I would give to my family for quitting the office.
The first thing that I needed to do was set up my own website. Joy who was my 'Fairy Whoremother' (her term not mine) also had a small website design business. She had already offered to create a site for me so it was just a case of telling her what I wanted to say. It took about a week for me to work out what to say, I looked at other escort websites and took a lot of advice from Joy before I finally got it all sorted.
As well as getting my website worked out I also listed myself on two Escort sites. This was a little different than just creating a website. Here I was basically advertising myself and going out to bring clients in. Although it wasn't as big as some of the steps I had already taken listing myself was another step into this new life. There was also a slight worry in the back of my head that perhaps I wouldn't actually attract any clients at all. When Joy had first put me up on her site as a duo partner it had taken two weeks before someone booked, and after that we had only done three more sessions in a two months. What if no one wanted to book me?
The idea was for my website to go live on the first of the month, coinciding with my advert linking back to it going live on a major escort listing. That would be the Friday morning, so the Thursday evening I took Joy out for a meal to thank her for building the website. We went to a quiet restaurant and as we were talking I told Joy of my fears that I wouldn't get any bookings. To my surprise she laughed.
"Sweetie, I'm sure you'll have more bookings than you'll know what to do with." She said.
"I hope so." I said.
"I know so." She said with a smile.
It didn't take me long to really find out, Joy had phoned me to say that my website was up and running just after eight on Friday morning. I headed off to work and in my lunch hour I switched on the mobile phone I had bought for escorting and had three voicemail messages. One of them was from a withheld number; I erased this with out listening to it. I stated clearly on my website and adverts that calls from withheld numbers would be ignored. The other two were more promising. One was from a man called Steve who left a short message saying that he would email me. He sounded a little nervous but genuine. The second was what sounded like an older man saying he would call back. He never did.
Once I got home I checked my emails. On the website I had a booking form and along with some general enquiries I had two booking requests. The first was from Steve, the man who had phoned and left a message. He wanted to book me for an hour on Monday from 11 in the morning. I sent him a brief reply confirming the time and amount and instructing him to make a confirmation call on Monday morning, the second booking request for later on the month, someone who would be travelling to the city on business.
I also answered some emails that were questions about services that I offered. By the end of the evening I had booked in two clients for Monday. A one-hour session with Steve at 11, two hours with a man named Peter at 2. I wanted to ease into it so I kept it at just three hours. I also had three bookings for Thursday.
It actually all seemed to be going very simply and smoothly. Although I was more than a little nervous about flying solo, the thing was although I was fine with the sex I wasn't so sure about the rest. When I had done duos with Joy I let her take the lead without her there it was up to me to make the clients time as enjoyable as possible. Both in and out of the bedroom, and I knew that Monday would be a demanding day both physically and mentally.
The weekend was going to be a little a busier than I would have hoped. On the Saturday I had to go to a retirement party at my day job. This was for one of the senior men in the office and we all had a whip round to buy him a set of golf clubs and a party at an out of town hotel. As I'm a non-drinker I was the designated driver for three other girls from the office. During the drive out to the hotel the chatter was the normal stuff then one of the girls started to talk about how long she had been single, she had just been divorced, and how she missed having a sex life. One of the others told her to be quiet because of me. I didn't understand at first then I realised as far as they knew I hadn't had a sex life for the best part of a year. I must have smiled a little too much as they assumed I had a secret boyfriend.
I realised that I would have to be more careful about compartmentalising my life. I had to be Bea from Human Resources, the girl in the office who read modern literature rather than chick lit, the girl whose sense of style was so respected that people she only nodded to asked her to help pick outfits for weddings. Then I had to be Belle the high-class call girl who could satisfy the desire of a client with just her mind and body. I had to keep these two people as separate as I possibly could.
The Party was dull which was a bonus for me as it meant that we all left early. In the car back to town I was questioned about my 'secret boyfriend' as I couldn't tell them the truth about my enigmatic smile I just denied everything. One girl suggested I'd had a fling with visiting US President Clinton. Not one to miss a joke I 'confessed' to a threesome with Bill and Hillary.
After that they started to talk about something else and then I was able to drop them off one by one and get back home. As soon as I did my thoughts went to Monday and the little nagging doubts in the back of my mind that I wouldn't be able to cope on my own and that physically I wasn't up to it.
I decided Sunday morning that I wasn't going to fret about things outside of my control. I just concentrated on relaxing so as to give myself the best chance of getting through unscathed. I also spent some time answering emails and checking bookings. So far the definite bookings had tailed off a little although I still had plenty of enquiries. Joy had warned me that only around 10% of enquiries would become bookings; most people either chicken out after mailing an escort or merely want someone to write them explicit emails so they can jack off. Still things were going well and I was starting to think of being able to follow my plan to leave the office.
Monday morning was a bit of a shock. The last few days had been nice and sunny but when I got up it was cold and there was heavy rain. I had packed my holdall the night before so I didn't have much to do apart from eat breakfast and head out to the apartment. It was just as I was about to leave that the phone rang. It was my escorting phone and I picked up. The voice on the other end was a little quiet it was Steve my first client of the day calling to confirm his appointment for 11. Again I was struck by the fact that he sounded nervous. I hoped that I would be up to the task of calming his nerves and making his time with me enjoyable. I also knew for certain that at least one of my clients would be arriving.
The other client Peter phoned to confirm while I was travelling. As arranged he left voice messages as I wasn't able to pick up. I sent him a text message acknowledging the call. I was now sure that both men would arrive I just had to hope that I lived up to their expectations.
When I arrived at the apartment I let myself in and was able to turn off the alarm system. There was a note by the kettle from Joy wishing me good luck and telling me that both the bathroom and boudoir were set up ready for my first client. I realised I would have to return this favour and leave the apartment ready to go for her in the morning. I made myself a mug of herbal tea and had a few moments of quiet before getting myself ready.
I finished my tea and went into the boudoir to get out of my travelling clothes. I put on a matching set of lacy black panties and bra. Both of which were pretty see through, over the top of this I put on my silk robe. My first appointment was only for the one hour so I wouldn't have to time to strip out of anything too complicated. I had also bought with me a few boxes of condoms, in various sizes, and placed these where I might need to get them.
