( all of those questions were quite nice and suitable for anyone other than reira because truthfully it was hard to answer the last two without a few tears in her eyes.
so she decided to focus on the first one. )
I don't count this as a date at all, more like blackmail but the president of my record label back home—
( in case red hadn't been told, reira was a celebrity back in her home. )
This gross old man wanted to discuss some final details on an album but without the rest of the band, with me only, hinting our success banked on it. So I went out to eat with him and he would not stop touching me, making annoying jokes and worst of all...
( a combination of polite japanese culture [her american side was dying to slam his face into the plate], the pressure of having her band succeed, and of course being coerced into being a good girl.
still there was something good that came from it. )
But I did negotiate a higher pay for myself in exchange for not reporting him for sexual harassment.
( although her comment was meant to be serious, reira nearly spat out her drink and bent over in laughter, holding her cup in her hand tightly to avoid spilling it.
truly red was a force to be reckoned with and the more they interacted, the more reira came to like her as a friend. )
I think you're onto something there! You sure have a lot of it though, picking me up so easily!

( she's quick to serve it, filling up the glass on the heavier end but soon reira is handing it back to red. )
How about another question then? Maybe something less serious.

...I don't know. Most awkward date? Or... what's a dream you have? What do you want to do when you get home?

He kept chewing with his mouth open!

[ Red says and she means it. Especially judging by the expression on her face. It's a scowl. Really almost angry. ]
I hope you told him where to shove it, in the end. I would have.

[ Red scoffs. ]
Did he try anything like that again?
no subject
( as in he couldn't do much more beyond pestering her with words.
with a bright and almost prideful smile, she took a sip of her drink and laughed. )
Thankfully I haven't run into any creepy old men here...yet.

Or maybe they want people with more stamina...

I guess! But if they want us to fuck so much they shouldn't be sending old people!
