Many talented young writers are writing their brilliant and surprising themes, characters and storyline in their writings. One of the short stories entitled “Pembantu dan Pelacur†written by Roidah. This paper aims to explore the meaning of a text of short story using semiotic theory and cultural studies. Women's issue raised in this text is often happened in our environment, trapped in the black world for being victims of violence and then plunged in a professional manner because they do not have a choice. Some of the concepts used to study the text, namely: structure, systems, relationships, representation and significance. The conclusion of this paper is that there is a class structure and social system that consists of strata layers of the lower class, middle class and upper class which is connected one to another.
