She is My Master

Chapter 20

"So, Ms Sayers and Ms Chandler won't be in for a few days?" Arika Yumemia confirmed with her coworkers at Fantasy Costumes.

Nina Wong, the acting manager, nodded as she told them, "Yeah, Ms Sayers has some family visiting with her."

"Awww," Erstin Ho pouted slightly. She liked working under Elliot, especially.

"It'll be fine," Arika reassured her.

"All right," Nina said briskly, "let's get going. We need to restock the displays, first, then get orders ready to ship."

"Right!" both women chorused.

"You know, Nina's kind of sexy when she takes charge," Arika noted quietly to Erstin as they opened several packages.

Erstin blushed as she murmured, "Oooh, yeah."

Arika chuckled as she suggested impishly, "You should try calling her 'mistress' once. Just to see how she'd react."

"Hush!" Erstin scolded.

Thankfully Nina was too far away to hear that.

The bell above the door rang, and all three looked over.

Nina put on her professional smile as two women came in, neither one looking familiar to her. "Welcome to Fantasy Creations," she smiled.

"Hello," Midori Sugiura smiled, her spiky red hair falling around her shoulders, dressed in short shorts and a t-shirt.

The school nurse at Fuka Academy and Midori's girlfriend, Yohko Helene, followed beside her a bit more tentatkively. "This is a lot less... seedy than I expected," she noted.

Nina smiled a bit sheepishly, "We're very respectable, really, ma'am."

"So, where's the rubber and latex?" Yohko demanded impishly.

"Hey!" Midori scolded.

"Eeep," Erstin blushed, imagining one or the other in that...

"We actually DO carry some of those items," Nina admitted then asked, "did you two want to see a sample...?"

Midori was blushing, "She was joking. Really."

Nina wondered, considering the impish look in the woman's eye. "Well," she said briskly, "have you had a fitting here, before?"

"No, not yet," Yohko nodded.

"Then let's get you measured... Erstin, give me a hand," Nina said briskly.

Rebecca Sayers sighed as they met for breakfast at bher hotel, the day after she had arrived in Fuka. Her daughter, Rena and Elliot, Rena's long time lover, were there. Natsuki, not unexpectedly, had begged off.

"Alyssa, say ahhhhh," Elliot said, feeding the young girl some pancake.

"Aaaah," the cute little blonde opened her mouth, then munched happily.

While the little girl was distracted Rena addressed Rebecca and asked, "So, you and Natsuki don't get along?"

Rebecca winced, "Yes. Or really, we don't have a relationship at this point."

"You know, you don't HAVE to have a relationship with your step daughter," Rena pointed out to her reasonably.

"i know," Rebecca willingly conceded that, "but I feel guilty. I did break up her parents marriage after all."

"Your husband did that," Rena noted.

"Still. And with her mother gone, too...," Rebecca shrugged.

"Sometimes I think you're just too nice," Rena teased.

"So," Elliot smiled cheerfully, "what's the plans for today?"

"I'd like to see Fuka Academy," Rebecca admitted. "My husband placed Natsuki there, and it's a good school, but I don't know much about it."

"I can see big sis?" Alyssa asked excitedly.

"It would be in school, so probably boring," Elliot told the little girl.

"Still," Alyssa smiled.

Elliot turned to Rebecca and said, "I don't see why we coulfdn't visit. You and her father are her legal guardians."

"Then let's do that this afternoon," Rebecca smiled.

"Yay!" Alyssa smiled.

'Hopefully this won't annoy Natsuki too much,' Rena mused.

"All right class, pass the tests forward," Mr Wang said with a sigh.

"I'm SO doomed," Chie Harada sighed.

"He sprung a lot of stuff from the required readings on us," Mai groaned, "and didn't cover it in class. Bastard."

"He loved doing that," Aoi Senou agreed, pouting.

"It WAS in the required reading," Natsuki Kuga pointed out with a sigh. Not that she had done much better.

"Brown noser," Chie mocked mildly.

"She is right though," Mai sighed too.

Mr Wang packed up his stuff, "Please wait quietly before next period begins." And with that he hurried off.

"At least next perioid is Miss Fujino," one guy muttered dreamily. Everybody looked forward to seeing her and her sexy business dresses.

"So is it true you have family visiting?" Aoi asked Natsuki eagerly.

Once again Natsuki was surprised by how good the rumor mill was at Fuka. She scowled ay Chie, "How did you...?"

"I knew your family married into the Sayers from the gossip magazines," Chie admitted modestly, "and I have a friend working at the travel agency in town that handled the bopokings."

"You scare me at times," Mai noted, and Chie just shrugged.

Natsuki sighed, "Yeah, my step mom and half sister are here... she invited me to breakfast this morning, but I turned them down."

"You turned down a free breakfast with your step-mom?" Mai said disapprovingly. "I mean, that is a high class buffet..."

"And your little sister?" Chie noted. "That's bad..."

Natsuki sighed.

"Afternoon everyone," Shizuru beamed as she strode in.

The school principal, Maria Graceburt, REALLY wished her assistant Midori wasn't taking the day off. She would have much rather had her do this. However she knew the Sayers family was loaded, so keeping them happy was a must.

"Mrs Sayers, welcome to Fuka Academy," Maria smiled. "I'm Principal Graceburt. A pleasure to meet you."

"Thank you," Rebecca smiled, "this is my cousin Rena, my daughter Alyssa and a family friend, Elliot Chandler."

"Nice to meet you," Maria continued. "Now, I understand your step daughter, Natsuki, is attending?" she checked.

"Yes, she is," Rebecca agreed.

"Obviously, you'll want to stop in and see her," Maria noted, "but I was thinking we could start with a tour first?"

"Please," Rena smiled.

Now, Maria was well aware of Rena and Elliot's relationship. She didn't follow gossip, but they weren't exactly subtle. However it wasn't her business...

"Wow, neat!" Alyssa murmured as they went through the computer lab.

Several teens took in the cute blonde and sighed happily. "Awww," several murmured.

Maria had to fight the urge to adopt the cutie.

Elliot gave her a amused look, CLEARLY knowing what she was thinking.

"Ahem," Maria cleared her throat and continued, "as you can see, the library, computer lab and science labs are all top notch."

"Yes, they're impressive," Rebecca conceded.

"Well, let's go look in on Miss Kuga," Maria decided to move on. "She's in Modern English with Ms Fujino, one of our most popular teachers."

(Quietly Maria hoped Shizuru wasn't wearing one of her more daring outfits...)
