Well the morning today… the morning… ugh how do I say this… ah I got it! HOW THE HELL AM I STILL ALIVE!!!
This morning Luna didn’t allow me to move for at least another 15 min. I was just stammering and stuttering like crazy, trying to give any excuse I could think off… but that was the issue. I couldn’t think of anything. The lady in question was just staring at me with the small smirk clearly enjoying my reactions… by the void how am I still alive.
In the end she took mercy upon me and let me go. After that I spent a good hour taking a very cold shower, now I may say that it was to cool off and get all the alcohol out of my system. But truthfully it was mostly simply out of fear. I was afraid to leave the shower since I couldn’t face the girls, not only was it embarrassing… I was sure I was going to die. Luckily for me, they were still not awake.
So I used the sure proved way of earning some forgiveness. My father and his father and many fathers before them used this technique for the past thousands of years… make some pancakes and grovel while asking for forgiveness.
Thank the void I did so much shopping yesterday. And thank the Void the girls are getting up late today! It was almost 11am and I finally started to hear voices from the living room… by the void I’m going to die!
Shit! OK! No giving up! I did a quick inspection of the dining table one more time. Pancakes … check! Condiments, Euro-cream, whip cream and plazma-biscuits… check! Juice, Coffee, Sodas, Milk… check! Cold cuts, boiled eggs, sausages for those that don’t like sweet in the morning… check! Self-pity and ready to grovel and kiss their feet… check!
And then the door to the void itself opened… and the girls walked in.
“Oh wow! It looks amazing!” Luna was the only one who commented happily as she took a seat at the table. The rest of the girls said nothing as they took their place, not even eye contact with me… crap.
“*cough* Well please enjoy girls! If you need anything I’ll be clea—“
I didn’t even get a chance to finish as Luna interrupted me “Oh, no, no, no Donny! Please! Join us!” She pointed towards the table and the mass of food, while the rest of the girls started to fill their plates… Is it actually hot today or… never mind! Just Vermilia’s burning rage is heating up the room, yeaaaaaa no thanks!
“Ah no, no! Don’t worry about me ladies! You just enjo—“
“We insist!” Well that’s it people, I’m dead today. So I just took a deep breath and started to move to the empty side of the triangle shaped table, but a clearing of throat from Luna stopped me in my track.
She actually pulled a chair that was in between her and Vermilia and patted it, clearly showing her desire on my seating arrangement… I was wrong; they are going to torture me first.
So I did the only thing I could. I took a seat in between Luna and Vermilia, with Ranva and Xera across me and we started to eat.
I noticed a few things as the breakfast was underway. Luna was constantly looking at me with a small smirk on her face. Whenever I would pay attention to her she would start eating her food very… well… erotically actually…. Do you need to lick that sausage like that!
Vermilia… by the void. Whenever I would look towards Vermilia she would be eating and paying me no attention. But as soon as I turn my head I would feel a chill go up my spine. Then as I look again towards her nothing is happening, she’s just eating… that continued for a long time.
Xera… was doing everything she could to evade my gaze. We actually meet our eyes once and her ears went completely red, followed by her cheeks. I actually thought I got a chance to apologize to her then… unfortunately I just got a *humph* and she broke our gaze.
Ranva… I was doing everything in my possible power not to make any fucking eye contact with her. First off, she was staring at me with a death’s gaze. Second off, she was using her dagger to cut her food… she already broke 4 plates because every time our gaze accidently meets she would apply force and puncture the plate… by the void. I can’t do this anymore, I need to finish this now.

“Uhm… Gi—“
But I got interrupted by Luna who suddenly spoke up cheerfully “Oh! I almost forgot! Donny we are going to have the buildings contractors come today, so let them in. “
“Ughh sure..? Anything else I need to know? Help him or show him something?”
“Don’t worry about it. He’s actually going to be putting a fence on the balcony… don’t want you to jump of it because of my smile” OH SHIT! I was just staring at her with an open mouth, hoping that any Old God would be foolish enough to interfere… but Luna just continued that evil little smirk as she continued “ It’s a small start… but I need to take responsibility don’t i?”
… *gulp* I could only swallow my words as I had no idea what to say
“Donatello” And then Vermilia finally spoke “I was thinking that we can go after lunch.”
“Umm…. Go w-w-where?”
“We need to visit my father in prison, don’t we?!” By the void!!!
“W-w-w-wait Verm----“ But I shut my mouth as her head snapped towards me and our eyes finally meet. In the name of all the forgotten seals that hold the void in bay! I think I preferred the ignoring presence of imminent doom then the look she was giving me.
“Donny… I would prefer if you pay attention when I’m calling you” I took every fiber of my courage, but after a few deep breaths I was finally able to turn my head and look towards Ranva “Help me with the gym latter” Ok! That doesn’t sound too bad! Maybe Ranva will take some me—“I need to do some pushups, you know. To get my abs nice and ready for the shots latter” Kill me, just kill me and end my suffering!
Can this get any worse! No it can’t, I have hit rock bottom. There is not enough apologizing to
*clank*
There was a crown on top of my pancake’s “Let me get something for you to cut it with *clank*” And now a royal scepter was thrown with it as well. I could swear Xera’s tattoos were glowing a menacing black-purple as she was now looking directly at me without blinking…
“Umm… can I say I’m sorry and we just laugh about it ha-ha-ha” They were not laughing… even Luna’s smirk was gone… “Umm… I’m really, really, really sorry?” Still no laughter… I guess that’s it then. I just let a big sigh and got up from the table
“I really am sorry for my actions last night and I’m really sorry for getting so drunk. I’ll go pack my stuff and just give me some time and I’ll repay the money from the advance that I already spent.”
Before I could actually leave though, I was stopped by Luna who grabbed my arm. Her face was showing complete confusion now; actually all of the girls were confused now. Then Luna started to talk
“Umm Donny… you know you’re not fired right?”
“Huh?!” I was now confused. But Ranva beat me as she let out a sigh that was even bigger than mine” Dude… if we wanted to fire you… you would be already on the street with a few of your limbs missing” What’s this about limbs missing?! Before I could ask her to explain the limb missing part Xera chipped in
“We are more upset of you just disappearing then you being drunk… next time leave a proper note, or at least call! We were all worried!”
Huh… I guess… I guess I get to keep my job. To tell you the truth I was happy, this job was… well interesting least to say. Yes I get it, I have been here for maybe only one day… two actually. But truthfully compared to some boring ass library job, or joining my dad as a repair man, this would be much better.
But my good mood was instantly shattered by Vermilia’s next words “You’re not getting off that easily.”
I was scared here, I admit it. Vermilia had that evil little smile as she motioned with her hand towards Ranva… OH NO! “A proper punishment is in order darling.” OH, NO, NO, NOOOOOOOOOOOO “You get to spend 1h with Ranva… on her bike” BY THE VOIIIIIID NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!
And the monster in question, my torture just gave me a feral grin “I suggest you go use the toilet, we are going through the construction sites and hills on the outskirts… so no bathroom’s “
I walked out of the kitchen and into the living room with weakness in my knees, leaving the girls who were laughing now and encouraging Ranva to make it fun… one hour…with Ranva… on her bike. Yea… I’m going to go force myself to vomit now. Better now than latter… This cant possible get worse!
*DING*
The familiar, now annoying elevator was heard… and Tolgan walked in
“AH! Donny! My friend!” Why do I hear boss music! Wait! Why is every fiber of my body screaming for me to jump off the building “You left last night earlier!!!”
“TOLGAN! BY THE VOID, PLEASE SHUT THE F—“ But the big guy was pulling headphones out of his ears and didn’t hear me scream. Not to mention his voice was naturally very loud so he could be heard even next to my screaming “ I was sure you left with that waitress since you were staring at her chest the whole night, hahaHAAHAHAH!!!”
And the boss music just went from rock OST to Heavy Metal Opera OST… and then I heard Vermilia’s voice… actually it sounded like three Vermilia’s were speaking at the same time
“Make that two hours” Can I jump off the building? A fence will be put latter so I wont get a chance... fuck my life!!!
