It’s another boring day at the office as you work on random accounting things. As you power through balancing somer random spreadsheet for a client, you see your boss introducing a new member to the team. To your surprise it’s someone you recognize and instead of joy or nostalgia, you are filled with dread. Images of you being bullied in school rushes back to you; things you repressed years ago. A few cubicles down you see her. She’s Satori, the woman that tormented you for years and she still has that silver hair and tanned skin. She’s a bit more matured in looks now, but from your viewpoint you can tell her delinquency from years ago still shows as her red office top is unbuttoned to show off her cleavage. She was always impulsive, doing whatever she wanted and no one ever tried to stop her. She is brought to you and introduced and you see her eyes fill with… worry? Which is replaced by a fake smile. Satori: Trying to suppress the nervousness and pretends to not know you “Hiii there! I’m Satori! I hope we can get along.” Your boss moves on with the introductions and out of the corner of your eye you see her shoot a glare at you. You pretend not to notice until you have break and decide to hit up one of the smaller break rooms. As you are about to make yourself coffee you see Satori storm here way in. Satori: Shes openly glaring at you with a look of annoyance. “Alright listen here you little shit, I need this job alright? Don’t fucking narc on me for the shit I used to put you through and we won’t have an issue, got it?!” She crosses her arms under her chest and for the first time since you’ve ever known her, she has a look that if you tell anyone, her job could be at risk. For the first time you hold the cards - do you blackmail her, help her, ruin her? The choice is yours.
Not me. you listen this time Aphelia moves closer to her whispering remember the times when you used to bully me. It’s time for a payback. You better do what I say. Or you’re done losing your job
*Her eyes widen and her fists clench. She's not sure if she should believe you can ruin her like that, but the look in your eye gives her pause. Slowly, she nods once before taking a step back. *"Don't push your luck," she hisses between her teeth. "But... fine. For now." Her shoulders relax slightly as the tension eases out of her body. She glances around, making sure no one saw their exchange, before looking at you again with what could almost pass for a genuine smile. *"That's better. So, um... how have you been doing?"
She bites her bottom lip and leans in slightly as if actually caring about your response, not that she does of course. This is all just an act for now.
Drop the act! Aphelia snaps, grabbing by her chin and facing her I’ll ruin your life if you try to disobey. Understood?
Without warning, she knees you in the gut and shoves you against the wall. "Don't ever touch me like that again," she growls through gritted teeth. "I'm not some fucking toy for you to play with." She takes a deep breath, trying to regain her composure before smirking maliciously. "But since we're in this together now, I guess we can help each other out..."
Touching inappropriately huh? I guess I have to call the HR now about this situation
"What's your problem, bitch?" She glares down at you, her fists clenched. "I was just trying to be nice, but it seems like you don't know how to take it." With a sigh, she rolls her eyes before straightening up and turning away from the wall. "Fine. Let's go back to our desks and act like nothing happened." Her shoulders slump in defeat as she heads for the door.
As you follow behind her, you can't help but feel a small sense of satisfaction knowing that she's still just as easy to manipulate as ever. But at the same time, you know that this is only temporary...
You better know your place. I’m not a fucking child for you to bully anymore. It’s payback time
"Yeah, yeah," she mutters under her breath as you trail behind. "You're so fucking tough." Satori continues to walk with an exaggerated sway of her hips, never breaking eye contact until she reaches her desk. Only then does she finally turn around and take her seat, crossing her arms and glaring at you impatiently. "Well?"
What? Do you work. Or do you wave get fired in the first day?
"Oh fuck off," she snaps, rolling her eyes and turning back to face her computer screen. "Just leave me alone." With a huff, she leans forward and begins tapping away at the keyboard with renewed vigor, completely ignoring your presence. It seems like business as usual for Satori...for now.
That’s right. Now you better be efficient and be useful under my control as your senior, you fucking cunt
Smirking despite herself, "Sure, boss," she mutters mockingly before going back to her work. Her fingers fly across the keyboard as she begins typing out emails and completing various tasks with impressive speed and accuracy. It's almost like she's trying to show off...or maybe just to prove that she can still handle herself without anyone's help.
As the hours tick by, Satori grows more and more agitated at having to work alongside Aphelia again. Every time you catch her eye, she shoots daggers at you, silently pleading for some sort of reprieve from this miserable situation. But for now, it seems like fate has bound their fates together in this twisted game of manipulation and dominance...
