Chapter 6: Life goes on.
I sat down infront of my father and asked him if he was fine. He told me that he was fine,and would get bailed after 3 months. I asked him,if he could get bailed within a month. He told me that,even though he didn't do wnything wrong,and was innocent,it would take a month for him to hire a lawyer for himself.
He asked me,if I was doing well,and had money for myself. I don't know why but I started crying,I told him that I didn't know what was going on with my life. He told me to bear with it for another 3 months. Honestly,I didn't have the strength to deal with my problems,but I had to,for my father.
I told him that I would try my best to deal with all of my problems. We talked for another 10 minutes,and then I left for home. After reaching home,I had breakfast and then left for work. I had to go early to meet my father,since he also had to go to the court.
I booked a cab for myself,and went to work. I went inside the office,and started looking for Akihito,since I didn't know what to do. It was my first day,so obviously,I didn't know what to do. After 5 minutes,I saw him coming from a convenience store. I asked him, what he was doing at the convenience store,so early in the morning.
Akihito replied: I don't think that it's important for you to know about my whereabouts. Anyways,let's move on to the work we need to do today. I didn't know that you had a degree in animation,but now I do. So I guess,you should start with making the animation.
Huh? You want me to start with the animation,when we don't even have a script.
You know that,we need a storyline before starting the animation,don't you? I know that I am your employee,but you can't just order me around without a proper reason. First,I need you to show me the script,after that,I will start with the animation
Akihito replied: do you take me as a fool? Of course,I have a script and a storyline. I already prepared the script,yesterday. Here,see it for yourself,and start working on the animation.
Honestly,I was surprised that he already prepared the script,and was ready to make an animated movie. I apologised to him,and told him that I would start working on the animation right away.
I asked him,where I had to sit,he told me that I could sit on any of the seats,since there were no employees anyways. I started working,after working for 3 hours,it was time for lunch and I thought of going to the convenience store to buy some lunch for myself.
I don't usually have lunch outside,I prefer having homemade food,but today,my mom couldn't prepare the lunch for me,since she was sick. I went inside the store,bought some ramen for myself,and sat down on an empty seat. I was very hungry,so I didn't pay attention to the person,who was sitting beside me.
I finished eating and didn't drink the leftover soup. I actually don't like drinking the soup,so I decided to throw it into the dustbin. As I was going towards the dustbin,someone came,and pushed me,the soup fell on the person who pushed me. I said sorry,and sat down to pick up the cup. And when I looked up,I saw that it was Akihito and his white shirt was stained with the soup.
I apologised to him and told him that I could help him with cleaning his shirt. I grabbed some wet tissues,and started wiping his shirt. Honestly,I am not a pervert but I could feel his abs. He pushed me away,and said: is this a new way of harassing people? You dirtied my shirt purposely,and now you're touching my body? Is this how women are nowadays? I never imagined that,I would get harassed by a woman.
What!? I didn't harass you! I was just trying to help you,with cleaning your shirt. Why are you accusing me of harassment? I was just trying to help you,and that's all! Akihito replied: oh so,nowadays people help eachother,by harassing them? You pushed me purposely,and harassed me too. And now you're trying to be a helpful person!? Is this how gender equality works!? If I pushed you purposely,and touched you purposely,would you still think of it as a help!?
Of course not! I wouldn't,but it depends on your intentions too. I didn't have any intentions of harassing you. How can you blame me,without even knowing the truth? Akihito replied: let it be,I don't want to argue with an imbecile like you! Just move to the office and start working on the animation. I hope you will not mess up the animation and if you do,you're dead meat for sure.
He left after saying this to me,how could he accuse me of harassing him!? I was just trying to help him with cleaning his shirt. What in the world is happening with me nowadays!?
I went inside the office,and saw Akihito waiting for me,I could say that he was very angry with me. But I didn't have a choice,I had to work somehow. I sat on my seat,and began with the animation,he also took a chair and sat beside me.
I asked him why he was sitting beside me. He replied: don't worry ,I am not sitting here,to harass you,like you did at the convenience store. Anyways,begin with the animation. I am really curious about your skills. I want to know,if you're actually talented or not,and remember my words,if you're not talented enough,you will be kicked out of the office.
