Life Can't Get Any Worse Right: Chapter 2 – What a Small World
The next morning, Mimi had woken up early and decided she should go visit her usual cozy café for breakfast again. It was her monthly thing to do since she doesn't always want Sora to spoil her with her great cooking.
She quickly got up and fixed her bed before preparing herself for a good day.
Mimi noted how it's beginning to get cold again as it's soon the middle of autumn.
Adjusting to the weather, she picked out a white and pink striped buttoned up shirt and a long, olive green and dark green swirled skirt, which reached to her knees. To keep herself warm, she chose to wear a beige lightweight jacket to block out the early breezes foreboding the winter to come.
She sat down at her vanity and grabbed her trusty pink comb and started to brush her hair, untangling the mess she made during her sleep. After that was over, she quickly grabbed a large, magenta hair clip to hold half of her chestnut hair up into a bun.
Passing her look with a "perfect", she skipped the make up and decided she was ready to go as she grabbed her satchel and briefcase before leaving her room and running down the small hallway as usual to the living room.
Sora, hearing the usual thumping that only Mimi can make, went over to the living room from the kitchen. She halted as she silently watched Mimi put on her usual flats. "This is a surprise, Tachikawa Mimi, a big one at that."
Mimi looked up as she grabbed her left shoe and put it on. "How's it a surprise when I don't know what you're talking about?"
"You're up early," Sora said bluntly.
"OH, that," Mimi said, getting up from the wooden chair she had been sitting on to put on her flats. "Well, I want to go to the café down the block for breakfast."
"So you're not going to eat my special pancakes?" Sora asked pouting as she rolled up the sleeves of her light blue shirt.
Mimi frowned slightly. "Tomorrow morning, okay?"
Sora pretended to look hurt. "Fine, leave me to my misery. Sigh, I just want to eat breakfast without my best friend always having to rush to work. A nice, slow breakfast is all I'm asking for!"
Mimi shook her head as she grabbed out her keys, and got out the unique golden key to unlock the door when Sora said, "Oh, and do me a favor."
"What?" Mimi asked curiously, finishing unlocking the door. She turned to look at Sora inquisitively.
"If you see that Hair Bush there for some reason, help me kick his..." Sora began, but got interrupted.
"Yes, I know, and if you see that Piss Head, do the same for me, bye, Sora my love!" Mimi blew a kiss before slamming the door.
Sora smiled to herself, shaking her head at how silly she and Mimi could be around troublesome guys. She didn't hear the ruckus outside her door as she walked back to the kitchen to finish making her breakfast.
---------------------
"Bye, Mattie boy!" Tai exclaimed, waving to Matt, who was obviously not listening to his friend as he was more interested on what was on TV at the moment. "By the way, you have such a bad attitude to not wave back!"
"Whatever," Matt mumbled out, giving himself another five minutes before leaving the apartment to go to work. He would definitely never subject himself to leave the apartment at the same time as Tai in broad daylight. It was definitely too embarrassing.
"Bye, Mattie boy!" Tai yelled before locking the door from outside, feeling a bit dejected that Matt did not bid him farewell. Without looking, Tai accidentally bumped into someone in the narrow hallway, dropping his black briefcase in the process.
Turning around, he apologized, "So sorry, mister." When he fully turned around, he found out the person he had knocked down was a pretty lady. Shot by the woman's beauty, he quickly lent out a hand to the chestnut haired woman. "Need help up?"
Mimi looked up to see a wild brown haired man. She accepted the hand and Tai helped her up. "Thanks, uh..."
"Tai," said Tai smiling a toothy smile, holding out a hand.
"Mimi," Mimi introduced with a smile of her own, shaking the tanned man's hand.
Suddenly they both thought at the same time with skeptical looks on their faces. 'Her/His name sounds so familiar, but I can't place where I've heard it.'
Mimi's Flashback...
Suddenly, Sora held up her mug enthusiastically. "To hell for Mr. Yagami Taichi?" she asked to Mimi, smiling.
Tai's Flashback...
Matt smiled brightly. "Same here for me, too, to hell for Tachikawa Mimi!"
They both shook their heads at the same time thinking, 'Nah, he's/she's too cute to be the one Sora/Mattie boy was talking about.'
"Hey, Tai, how long have you been living here?" Mimi asked curiously, never seeing him in this apartment complex ever. She bent down to pick up her briefcase that had fallen on the floor next to her. "Not to be rude or anything, but I hardly see anyone come out from the apartment you just came out of."
"No offense taken, my beautiful goddess, it's just my roommates and I hardly come out of the apartment not unless we truly have to," Tai answered, shrugging before bending down to pick up his own fallen briefcase. "By the way, may I call you Lady Pretty?"
"Sure, so can I call you Sir Porcupine?" Mimi asked, smirking at the wild bush Tai had for hair.
"Nah, King Handsome would be fine," Tai said, flattering himself to no end.
"What about just plain Tai?" Mimi asked, believing this man has already gone overboard.
"Sure," Tai agreed, anything to keep this pretty woman to continue talking to him.
"Hey, want to join me for breakfast at the café down the block?" Mimi asked, not minding any new company.
"Hell yeah, I'm so hungry I think I can drink and eat everything they got," Tai exaggerated as he rubbed a hand over his growling stomach.
"That's a big monster living in there," Mimi commented on Tai's incessant growling stomach as they walked down the hallway to the elevator.
5 Minutes Later...
"Hey, wait a minute!" Tai screamed, halting their walk down the long sidewalk.
Mimi turned to look at him, wondering what on earth he has to scream about now.
"There's a monster living in me?" Tai asked, frightened at what could possibly dwell inside of him. "I knew it! I knew it! I knew it! I knew it!"
Mimi raised an eyebrow at Tai's odd behavior, wondering if it was best to know what he knew. Ever since she talked to him since their bumping, Mimi was began to figure out why she had kindly offered for his company in the first place. "You know what?"
"It's here to eat my six pack! Sigh, I knew girls wanted me, guys hated me, but I never knew monsters wanted to be me with my muscular and sexual body!" Tai proclaimed all in one go as he smiled happily to himself that even monsters want a piece of him.
Happy with his theory, Tai continued down the sidewalk, leaving a shocked Mimi in his wake.
"WAIT, YOU HAVE A SIX PACK?!" Mimi asked incredulously as she ran after the estranged man, definitely interested in touching such part of a man's body.
Thirty Minutes Later...
"Oh no, I lost track of time, I hope I can get there on time or that porcupine will fire me," Sora mumbled to herself as she quickly locked her door, hearing an echo behind her yet she didn't care one bit.
She turned and bumped into someone. "Sorry."
Sora looked up to see a man that was a few inches taller than her and had icy blue eyes with his blond hair that seemed to be shining from the bright lights above them. He was wearing a black suit with a white dress shirt and dark blue tie to match. His black pants looked rippled and creased as if he had slept in them.
The woman suddenly noted that of all the three years she and Mimi resided in this apartment, they had never met their neighbors. She couldn't help but stare at the man as if he was a hallucination created from consuming her big, scrumptious breakfast.
The man turned around and fully placed his eyes' attention on Sora. Seeing how intently Sora was staring at him, he impatiently asked a, "What?"
"You're real right?" Sora asked bluntly, tentatively reaching out a hand to touch the man, but quickly pulled back is if she had been shocked just as Matt took a swipe at shoving her hand away.
"Are you having certain mental problems?" the man asked, freaked out that this woman came out of nowhere just to touch him to see if he was real. He knows he's god's gift to women, but seriously women nowadays should think up better ways to ask him out on a date.
Sora chuckled lightly to herself before shaking her head and waving her hand to dismiss such ideas. "No, no, I don't have any that I know of. It's just, my roommate and I rarely well, never did see our next door neighbors."
The man gave a knowing look as he nodded his head understanding what Sora meant. "Ah, well, most of my roommates and I don't go out much, and well, whenever we do go out, we hardly see anyone in the complex."
Having an idea that her new neighbors were misanthropes to the outside society, Sora nodded her head as if she understood what was just spoken to her. Nonetheless she suppressed the urge to call the man and his roommates odd as she generously held out a hand. "My name is Takenouchi Sora."
The man briefly shook her hand. "Ishida Yamato, but you can call me Matt."
Suddenly they both had a suspicion as they raised their eyebrows at each other. 'His/Her name sounds so familiar, where did I hear it from?'
Yamato's Flashback
"Hey!" Tai yelled out. With a determined look, he raised his mug up into the air. "All I know is to hell for Takenouchi Sora!"
Sora's Flashback
Mimi smiled back. "To hell for Mr. Ishida Yamato!"
The two quickly shook their heads dismissing the idea that they had met their best friends' mortal enemies. 'Nah, he/she is too nice to be the one Mimi/Tai was talking about.'
"Hey, Matt, do you mind giving me a lift, I currently don't have my car with me right now."
Sora definitely could not say she was lying considering the fact that she sent her car to a car shop to get the tiny scratch covered.
Matt nodded. "Sure."
Yamato's Flashback
Tai rubbed his head. "Whatever." He went to the front of the car and pointed at the left headlight. "Look at this!"
Yamato went over and looked. He rolled his eyes. "It's hardly visible. Man you got issues about cars."
Yamato smacked himself mentally. 'Nah can't be her.'
Tokyo Town Building 17th Floor - Black Ring Enterprises: 35 Minutes Later...
"Hmm, I dropped her off at the exact place Tai works at, hmm, I should stop thinking before I get weird ideas, I mean, there could be more than one Sora working at that studio," Matt mused out loud, leaning back on his black master chair, folding his fingers on his lap.
There was a knock on the door, breaking Matt out of his reverie.
"Come in," Matt answered automatically, as he went back to his thinking.
The door opened and then closed itself.
"I could be hallucinating and catch the wrong address of where that Hair Bush works," Matt mused, now pressing his fingertips together.
"Ishida, this is no time to start talking to yourself."
"No, I am perfectly fine," Matt answered, waving the woman's words away from his own thoughts.
"Then, may I ask why the hell are you talking to yourself?"
Matt looked up to see Mimi. He jumped out of his seat when he realized who had been talking to for the past minute. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING HERE?! I thought you and are were never to bother each other, bitch!"
"You should watch your language, Ishida, I mean a little kid could barge in right now and hear that and he or she will call you that in return," Mimi admonished, wagging a finger back and forth in front of Matt's fuming face, while holding a green folder with her other hand. "That's a big no no. You know, Jyou's kid usually comes here, and we wouldn't want his daddy to fire a certain potty mouth now do we?"
Yamato glared at Mimi. "What do you want?"
Mimi automatically threw the green folder like a frisbee at Matt without looking at the man, who ducked just in time or it would have sliced him somewhere from the neck to the hair. The folder hit the huge glass window behind his master chair before dropping onto the floor with a soft thud.
Matt leaned over his desk glaring heatedly at Mimi who simply smiled innocently. "WERE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME OR SOMETHING?!"
Mimi rapidly shook her head from side to side making an innocent face that could be interpreted as doing such deed would be considered a sin or taboo. "Why of course not, I thought you were a man. A man can just catch it, but you ducked. Tell me, are you a woman?"
Matt sat on his seat again as he bit out, "No, I'm not a woman, and no, every human being of any gender would have ducked to save their necks!"
"Yeah, whatever," Mimi waved disinterestedly. "Just be sure to get that proposal signed and give it to me. I'm not even going to experience how long it'll take you to pick it up and sign so I'm leaving now. Bye." She left the room, leaving a very pissed off Matt.
Mom sat down on her comfortable chair. Leaning back, she realized she had nothing to do until Yamato is finished with the proposal. She remembered there was an issue of JJ that she hadn't read yet so she quickly decided to take the chance to now.
She picked up the black briefcase from the magenta carpet floor and opened it. Her eyes widened at what she saw as she dropped the opened briefcase in disbelief.
Instead of a briefcase with the usual magazines, proposal folders, extra pens and a small pack of tissues was something she never expected.
One side of this briefcase had three rows of different flavored donuts with napkins on the side. The gross part of it all was they all each had a huge bite on it at the top. On the other side, instead of proposals and other work papers, were playboy magazines and other porn magazines with covers featuring scandalously dressed girls revealing their voluptuous bodies to their eager readers.
Mimi, recovering from her shock, quickly dumped anything fallen out into the briefcase and slammed the briefcase shut in disgust. "What the hell happened to my briefcase?"
Just then, she remembered what happened when she first met Tai. "Oh gosh, I must have his briefcase and he has mine!" She slapped her forehead as she shook her head in disbelief. "Why do I make such strange friends nowadays? Damn pervert with disgusting donuts!"
The door opened to reveal Matt. He smirked arrogantly at Mimi and her little episode. "Are you mentally challenged?"
Mimi's head snapped upwards at Matt. "Shut up!!"
"Well, talking to yourself is the first sign of mental retardation," Matt supplied, throwing the green folder at Mimi, who caught it with ease.
"At least I'm not afraid of a flying folder," Mimi retorted haughtily, placing the folder onto her desk, over the many other folders she had yet to sign.
"At least my desk is clean," Matt bit out, wrinkling his nose in disgust at Mimi's messy desk.
"At least I act like a professional, unlike you, screaming when I just throw you something!" Mimi commented, looking away from Matt to observe her desk. It wasn't that messy! She just had many piles of folders…that seem to overlap each other…
"Stop talking bull..."
"Now, now, we're not arguing with each other here with the use of foul language, are we?" Jyou asked, entering the room, seeing the tension slowly building up between the two. "Sorry that I didn't knock, but even if I did, you two could have easily drowned it out with all the tension in this room." He walked over to Mimi's desk and put down a yellow folder. "Sign it and then give it to me later, I need to go eat lunch."
Matt and Mimi stared at their boss incredulously. "This early?!" the two asked at the same time, causing them to glare mercilessly at each other.
"I'm your boss, that means I'm the Mega around here," Jyou proclaimed, pressing his hand against his chest in an arrogant manner, emphasizing his importance in this company. "I have the right to leave whenever I want. So well, see ya!"
The boss held out two fingers, signaling his leave as he left the room with Mimi and Matt staring with widened eyes after the man walking outside the window.
Mimi could not believe how easy it was to be the boss when she remembered that it was only because Jyou dumped his workload on her, helping her create the towering piles of folders on her desk. She huffed to herself petulantly, believing she's much more suited to be boss since she's usually the one doing all the work with presentations and proposals.
Getting back to work, Mimi dumped Tai's briefcase onto the carpet floor and turned back to her desk, grabbing one of the folders from the bottom of one of the messy stacks of folders. Diligently ready to review the contents, she was about to go into her work mode when she remembered that there was still a pesky fly in her room.
She looked up to see Matt leaning against the doorframe. "Anything you want, Ishida?"
"Oh, nothing, I'll get back to my room now, and by the way, you should leave your door open, this room smells," Matt supplied rudely, making a disgusted look as he waved his hand in front of his nose signaling he smelled something bad.
"Oh, shut up, Ishida, I didn't even spray any fragrance in this room," Mimi retorted, glaring at Matt with a dangerous glint in her eyes. "Get out, Ishida, before I throw this pen straight at your iced up eyes! I have pretty good accuracy when it comes to these things you know!"
Yamato shrugged and slammed the door shut after he left the room.
Mimi looked up, thinking angrily, 'That idiot, he's going to break down my door before this month ends!'
Blossom Fashion Studios
'Damn it, there's nothing to do in this place except watch everyone run around like idiots trying to prepare for fashion shows! Don't they do something else more entertaining!,' thought Tai as he looked at the calendar next to him on the blue wall of his office.
The calendar was on the October page, which had a wonderful scene of a pumpkin patch with many pumpkins with cute faces surrounding an immobile scarecrow on the ground.
Tai sighed in disappointment as he realized how slow the days have been going, too fast for the summer to be officially over in weather and too slow for Halloween to come.
He looked around his office, trying to think up something to do to pass the time before he can leave the studio.
Tai's office was not too large, yet not too small, just the perfect size to feel cozy. His office was separated into two parts. One part with a set of beige furniture surrounding a round, cherry wood coffee table was the perfect setting for informal or private meetings. Next to it was a mini bar holding Tai's favorite wine, champagne, beer, and every other drink people can think of, especially Tai's sacred drink, orange juice. The other part of his office would be the elevated platform where his desk was on.
His desk was a whole different story, which can be questioned if it was really a desk or not since it had messy stacks of folders spilling out in every direction. On top of these folders were the wrappers and crumbs left from the food he usually pigged out on when he had nothing to do since he officially took ownership of the building. Used toothpicks were scattered everywhere on his desk after Tai had taken full use of them to pick out all the gunk stuck in his perfect white teeth, perfecting them to attract more girls with his toothy smiles.
'I have to clean this mess someday,' Tai thought sadly, staring at his two feet pile of junk on his desk. Deciding there was nothing to do, he walked over to the two tall wooden bookcases on the right of his desk. "Let's see, what fashion books did I buy that might interest me?"
There was none unfortunately.
Tai sighed dejectedly, as he went back to sit on his master chair. He turned to the windows behind him and opened the white blinds to look down one floor at the streets. There was nothing extraordinary to watch outside.
Tai definitely could not believe it. Even the outside bored him to death!
Suddenly something caught his attention. He quickly grabbed out his trusty black and white colored binoculars from one of his drawers of the desk and closed it onto the scene.
A strawberry blond man outside at the corner of the street seemed to be very suspicious looking. He had piercing silver eyes, donning a black coat with his hands in his pockets. The man was wearing navy blue sweatpants and a pair of brown loafers.
In front of him was a pretty young woman with shoulder length, brown hair with blond highlights that was tied into a ponytail. Her amethyst eyes were showing no sign that she was being watched as she waited for the traffic light to change to walk. She was wearing a hot pink peony decorated summer dress that reached to her knees. Hanging from her left shoulder was her expensive brand named purse, which had a pocket opened, showing a peep of a blue wallet.
The silver-eyed man pulled the purse from the woman, ripping it a little before running in the wrong way causing him to bump into his unfortunate victim.
The woman began screaming, not quick enough to grab a hold of the man. No one else around thought he had stolen something, thinking it's the woman's familiar cry at seeing someone again after so long.
The man ran off without making any more mistakes, bumping his way through as the woman he robbed is chasing him down.
"Finally, something fun to do!" Tai squealed, throwing his binoculars over his head somewhere before clapping his hands as he bounced in his seat in growing excitement.
Tai quickly got up without thinking, ran out the door, and down the emergency stairway next to his office.
"Time to be Superman," he told himself happily, as he finally reached the first floor and pushed open the blue door.
He ran past the woman that had just been robbed.
Tai screamed back to the woman, "Don't worry, miss, I'll get him for you!"
The woman looked shocked as she suddenly stopped running, only to run the words Tai just said to her in her head.
Tai began gaining speed running after the man as he zigzagged his way through the crowd on the sidewalk.
The robber wasn't too far away considering he was a very slow runner and he was constantly bumping into people on his way.
"Get back here, bastard!" Tai screamed, pointing at the man as he continued running after him.
Slightly confused, the man turned around to find Tai hot on his tail, making the man increase his running speed as his breathing turned into more of a heavy wheezing.
They ran through a dark alley, jumping over stinky garbage bags and ripped up cardboard boxes.
The man turned to a corner, making Tai almost slip from stopping himself from going straight to turn run down the same turn the man took. "Get back here!"
The man jumped over a black garbage can, being halfway out of the alley.
Being the kind of man Tai was, instead of focusing on where he was going, he was more interested in looking around the area he was in.
The buildings seemed to be painted an eerie shade of gray and white with the paint peeling off here and there. The windows were all either broken one way or another or were suspiciously missing
"What the hell is this place?" Tai asked, looking around curiously , not noticing he was within one foot away from the garbage can standing in the middle of his path.
Unfortunately, he bumped into it. "Oof!" His stomach hit the edge of the garbage can. "Ahh!" And with that, Tai misfortunately fell into the inviting garbage can.
Within seconds his head popped out as if he had been swimming in there with dirt on his clothing and a chewed slice of pepperoni pizza stuck on the back of his head, He did not notice since he believed it was his hair gel. He had other small pieces of garbage stuck on him, but he didn't care since he was more interested in being a hero for the day.
"Baka! Get back here! Do you know how much this suit cost?!"
Tai quickly got out of the garbage can, almost tripping from trying to jump out, but he caught himself before he can kiss the dirty ground.
He quickly continued his chase after the man out of the alley and they ran across the street with cars honking at them when they crossed.
They continued running until they entered a small park.
The part of the park closest to the entrance was the baby playground, which wasn't very helpful at all for the luckless Tai.
The man ran past the baby swings, shoving the adults that had been pushing their cute, little children back and forth on the swings. He jumped over the small red sandbox, kicking some of the sand into the adorable face of the little girl who had been sitting there, minding her own business as she attempted to build a sand castle.
She wiped the sand out of her brown pigtails and her pale face. Her brown eyes got hazier with anger as she got up, brushing sand off her new blue dress that had yellow ducks for pockets. "Hey, mister, you better come back here! You dirtied up my hair and my new pretty dressie!!"
Tai, who was moments ago about to jump over the sandbox, had to change his plans when the little girl just had to stand up right in front of where he was about to jump, making him fall ungracefully into the small sandbox.
The little girl easily dodged Tai and his fallen body. "Hey, mister, this isn't a swimming pool and you're too big for it! Are you a porcupine human? You have some funny hair that looks like those fishies' needle thingies."
Tai glared heatedly at the annoying girl, and muttered, "Shut up."
"Ooh, mister, you said a bad word!" the little girl cried in horror, pointing her right index finger at Tai.
Tai glared once again at the little girl. "Shut up is not a bad word, and for your information, shut up is two words, get that straight!"
"I'm going to go tell my mommy you hurting me," the little girl announced randomly, still pointing at Tai.
Tai got up brushing sand out of his hair, which only made his wild hair even wilder and messier. 'How can one little annoying brat talk fluently like that?' He didn't question himself more when he saw the man running not far away.
The little girl was about to get up to go complain to her mom. Tai, thinking up of a clever plan to avoid a pointless confrontation with an emotional adult, quickly grabbed out a ten yen coin from her pockets, and handed it to her immediately. "Little girl, would this stop you from telling your mommy?"
The girl's eyes widened and became shiny with stars as she jumped up and down in joy. "COOL!! Money!"
"Yeah, money, hey," Tai began, catching sight of something useful before he decided to pull out another ten yen coin. "Would this allow me to use your red shovel thing over there?" He pointed at a red shovel stuck in the sand to make sure the little girl knew what he was talking about.
The girl nodded, eager to receive even more money from the rich young man.
Tai quickly took the shovel and threw it high and far, hitting the man at the back of his knee, making him unbalanced, knocking the man to fall down clumsily.
"What's your name, honey?" Tai asked sweetly to the little girl standing next to him in the sandbox.
"Hikari," the little girl answered politely.
"Hikari, ah, wonderful name, my little sister's name is also Hikari, but we call her Kari for short," Tai conversed, grabbing out another ten yen coin as he saw the robber getting ready to get back up on his two feet again. "Would you help me tackle that man over there down if I gave you this?"
Hikari shook her head at the offer.
"NANI?" Tai exclaimed, wondering what caused the girl to decline such an offer that would be a dream come true for kids. "It worked for you a few seconds ago!"
Tai grabbed out a one thousand yen bill. "Will this do?"
Hikari grabbed it immediately. "Psych!"
"Grr, what would be able to satisfy you a little girl like you?!" Tai asked, grabbing another one thousand yen bill out of his wallet.
"That," Hikari pointed expectantly at what Tai had in his hand.
Tai hesitantly gave it to Hikari, who stuffed all her money that she had gotten into one of her rubber duckie pockets. She turned her attention back to Tai and asked bluntly, "Tackle him, right, mister?"
Tai nodded, wondering if the little girl is going to manipulate him into giving her more money again.
Hikari ran after the man, screaming out a crazy battle cry. When she ran up to the man, she kicked him by his left foot and knocking the poor man onto the floor.
Hikari got on top of the man and sat on his back only to start pounding his back with her small fists like a mad maniac.
"Damn, that girl got spunk," Tai commented to himself, grabbing out his Nokia cell phone as he ran up to them. When he reached them, Hikari was still pounding the man with her strange temper flaring out through her strong, small fists.
Tai looked down at the man. "Stay there, I'm calling the cops!"
The man was unable to answer after he went through all the trouble Tai had caused him in his attempted robbery. So, he decided to just face the dirt of the park and elicits his sad groans and moans while a small child is beating him to no end.
30 minutes later...
The whole thing was finally cleared up, and Tai got the stolen purse. He was about to walk back to the corner where he first saw the incident occurring when he didn't need to walk far and found the owner standing at the park entrance, panting from running in high heels.
"Yo, lady!" Tai screamed, excited that he had somehow helped a damsel in distress, running up to her and handing her the tattered bag that had worn all the trouble Tai went through. "I got your bag!"
Tai, who was expecting a thank you and maybe a long, hot kiss, instead got a hard whack on the head by the bag.
"Hey, what was that for?!" Tai asked in frustration, rubbing his poor head.
"You dirtied my bag, and wrecked it!" the woman simply bit out in anger, stalking off after her final words to the poor guy.
Tai stared in disbelief at the woman's retreating back.
Back at Blossom Studio...
Tai finally reached his office, groaning and moaning out his frustration and exhaustion at the events he went through today.
He was about to enter when he saw Sora, minding her own business mind you, walking by but she felt someone staring at her.
The designer, as a result, turned to look at Tai and starting laughing, pointing, and jeering at Tai all in one go.
"You're not made to be a model," Sora commented, still laughing at what was on the back of Tai's head.
"Haha, very funny," Tai bit out, entering his office and then slamming the door shut behind him as hard as he can.
TBC...
I hope you like the revision! I personally think it's not really that good, but I think it's already good enough? Thank you for reading!
FINISHED REVISION: July 13, 2007
