D*cking Around the Household as a F*TANARI (GL) (LGBTQ+)

Chapter 22 - Isla's troubles

...

<POV: Isla>

"Um, boss? Could I have this attested by you? The Section Manager needs this documented as soon as possible. Please, I beg you! He is making my life miserable for it."

I turned my sight away from the papers and looked at the man standing beside me. He was a complete mess as his sweat drenched clothes stuck close to his body, while he breathed heavily while holding a folder in his hands.

I couldn't help but get annoyed being disturbed during my work like this. But, in a professional world, you cannot help but swallow your complaints.

"You should go over to the Deputy in charge for this kind of stuff, right? I am not sure if it would be okay for me to do this on my own..."

The man's excitement visibly fell as his hopeful face turned into a crying one instead.

"T-There won't be any problems! I am sure of it. Please! I don't know who else I could turn to if you refuse me. Please, boss?"

This guy... he is really getting on my nerves now. Should I just beat him up? I am really considering this option now..

"Hah... alright. Let me have a look at the document first before I accept it alright?"

The man's face brightened immediately as he pushed the folder to my desk and spoke,

"YESSS!! Boss, you are totally awesome! I will buy you lunch tomorrow for this. I will leave it to you then!"

The man didn't even wait for my response and just dashed out from my office.

"Wait! Ah... he ran away already.. What kind of junior is he? Leaving all this work for me to deal with? I already have a lot of stuff to do of my own too, you idiot!"

Unable to scold or swear any further in the office, I tried to quickly sort through the documents and attested them after checking them many times.

After being done with hem, I went back to preparing my report for this month's production data. This is the kind of work I am the most proficient in. Things that no one wants to dabble in.

Paperwork. The Managers are only obsessed with their own luxury as they push all their work to their juniors while enjoying the credit for their work.

After submitting my report to the Deputy in charge, I rushed over to my next commitment.

It was already 6.50 PM by the time I reached my Part-time job location.

10 minutes early today, huh? That's something new for sure.

Then again, I got no time to waste. Must get ready for the shift quickly!

I am managing two jobs right now. It's obvious why though, with the economy being so bad and me being the only earning member of my family, I have to make sure that we have enough money, in case things turned for worse someday in the future.

I could manage to feed and clothe my kids with the money from the first job, but they need top grade education too. I want my kids to be able to achieve everything that they ever dream.

With my second job, I am able to fulfill my obligation as a mother towards them.

I rushed towards the employee area and opened my locker to quickly changed into my professional suit in the changing room.

Compared to my Office suit, this one was a bit too flashy, but it just works fine here. Not many of my colleagues or friends know about the details of my second job though.

Actually... I work as a part-time assistant to the manager here.. at a brothel. I mean, a brothel needs to keep their finances in check too, you know? Especially if the owners are involved in tax evasion, among the other things.

The previous assistants all lost their jobs either due to losing their control over their senses and ended up putting their hands on the ladies of the brothel. That kind of thing wasn't tolerated here at all. Absolutely not.

A few others weren't able to deal with the constant threat of the police raids, who ended up in them submitting their resignation.

It was only me who had been able to work continuously here for the past 5 years, the longest tenure for any other employee in this brothel in fact.

I myself don't have to be involved with anything that goes on upstairs. I just have to occasionally check the financial accounts, transfer funds to secure accounts, creating false legal data.. yeah, that kind of work.

When I turned on my Desktop and started to do my work, I felt my head becoming heavier as my vision started to turn unfocused for a moment, before it got restored y itself.

Am I feeling sleepy already? Oh well, not the first time something like this ever happened. Let's just keep working then.

Turning to one of my quick remedies for this kind of situation, I took out a bottle of sleep reducing pills and swallowed a few with a glass of water.

Alright.. let's get the work done already!

...

"Oh? Isla, you are still here? How long are you planning to work tonight? It's way past 9.30, you know?"

I heard a high pitched voice behind me, which prompted me turn back and look at the person. And there stood a curly blonde haired woman. Her height was a bit shorter than average, bt she loved it that way as she attracted a lot more guys that way.

She was still dressed very professionally too despite working at a Brothel... as a receptionist.

"Oh god. It's already this late? Judy, I don't think that I can possibly keep working anymore tonight. Tell the Manager that I will finish the report tomorrow for sure."

As I grabbed my things from the desk, Judy stood there nervously as she ended up speaking to me again.

"Yeah, don't worry bout that. Rather, I have a favor to ask from you. A few of my friends asked me out for the night, but I feel too self-conscious to go alone with them. Would you please come with me? I will put in a good word for you to the manage tomorrow. Pretty please?"

Go out for the night? Is she crazy? Why the heck does she wants me to tag along on her date with her friends?

Then again... On this job, I don't have many people I can rely on. Judy is one of the few who even bother to talk to me.

Should I just go then?

"But... hah. Alright. But I won't be staying there for much long. I will really leave soon so, don't expect anything beyond that, okay?"

Judy pumped her fist into the air as she yelled in delight.

"That's my girl! Hehehe.. alright. We would be having a great time tonight for sure!"

Judy then grabbed my hand as she almost dragged me over to her cr. I noticed that thee was another car parked behind Judy's car. Probably her friends who invited her out tonight.

"Come on! Get in! The night is still young for us ladies. Let's go and enjoy!!"

As I got pushed into the car, I couldn't help but speak up a little.

"Yeah.. Let's hope that this goes well..."

<POV: Carene>

After I walked out of Sis Lin's house, I sat down on the lawn nearby to catch my breathe and to gain some senses back.

Really... what the hell happened to me back then.

I mean... Sis Lin must have a boyfriend somewhere...

What am I supposed to do now? I already did something unforgivable to her.

Hopefully Sis Lin would find it in herself to forgive me.

After sighing heavily and mulling about my stupidity just earlier, I stood up and started to walk along the road, away from Sis Lin's house.

And as I was slowly waking away, trying to clear my head, I ended up receiving the second shock of the day.

How could this be? S-Sis Lin lives next door to us?!

Oh shit... And I didn't even know about it all this while!

Now that I think about this, won't it be super awkward if we met again in the future?

N-NO! Absolutely not! It won't be anything bad.

Yeah. That's right. If I meet her again later.. I should probably apologize to her sincerely.

The doctor's appointment is tomorrow as well.

To think that I have to face Sis Lin again so soon...

Hah... I think that I will just go home for now.
