part 38

Later that day iku is very tired, she falls asleep on the couch next to Jimmy, not even the games he’s playing is enough to wake her up now, even tough she’s usually a light sleeper.

Her phone starts buzzing, she jolts awake. It’s Anna.

Anna: (“Hey, you still up?”)

iku: (“Mmm- Yeah. Yeah I’m up.“)

Anna: (“Wanna come over?”)

iku: (“Just chillin’?“)

Anna: (“Yup.”)

iku: (“Want me to bring Jimmy?“)

Anna: (“I’d like to but I don’t think my place is as exciting for him.”)

iku: (“Ah okay, I’ll be there… I’ll be there soon.“)

Anna: (“Take care.”)

iku hangs up. She gets up from the sofa and gets an energy drink out of the fridge. She tells Jimmy to just ring if there’s some issue, and gets dressed.

She makes her way to Anna, she let’s her in. As iku sits down Anna hands her a mug of tea. It’s strawberry tea, iku’s fave :).

Anna: (“I’m honestly worried about this job.”)

iku: (“Mmm, yeah.“)

Anna: (“Do we make him pay before you do the job? I mean I wouldn’t be surprised if he tried to weasel his way out of paying.”)

iku: (“I don’t know about that, I’ve got an email today that the permit is valid. Might be sticking to his word.“)

Anna: (“I’m still worried about you. All those thugs, barely any cover, and sure you’re better than them by miles but… There’s still a chance you die there.”)

iku: (“Whenever I go on a job there’s a chance I’ll die.“)

Anna: (“Yeah… Yeah but this is by far one of the most dangerous jobs you’re ever gonna do… I just… I just want you to not get hurt.”)

iku: (“It’s gonna be fine ok? Stressing about it just makes things worse.“)

Anna: (“Yeah, yeah, you’re right.“)

Anna: (“Anyways, I haven’t asked, watchu’ been doing recently, any news with the Pretty Boy?”)

iku: (“We’re talking a lot, I message him and we send funny videos to each other.”)

iku: (“Besides that, I haven’t done anything.“)

Anna: (“Ah that’s nice.”)

iku: (“I mean, I’ve been wanting to do a party or some gathering. Like a costume party thing, I don’t really know?“)

Anna: (“Oooh, that’s sounds interesting, like, everyone is in a costume or just you and a couple people? Cause’ you could do like a thing where you and the servers dress up and entertain people a bit.”)

iku: (“Yeah that’d be nice.“)

Anna: (“And did you think of a costume?”)

iku: (“You know those like latex bunny suits?“)

Anna: (“… So… You ARE trying to show off?”)

iku: (“Hey come on, we’re all adults, it’s kind of a playful and erotic at the same time.“)

Anna: (“I mean… It’s not that it wouldn’t look nice on you, it’s just, most of your employees are either scared or have the hots for you. Don’t you think it’s gonna make that worse?”)

iku: (“It’s gonna be fine, I’m gonna be nice to them.“)

Anna: (“Uh huh.”)

iku pulls up a listing for a bunny suit set, latex body with dark brown stockings and fishnets. The set also has bunny ears and a collared necktie.

Anna: (“Yeah, no it looks really good, just again, you might have some effects on your employees.”)

iku: (“Eh it’ll be fine, I don’t mind getting eyed as long as they know the rules. Oh and believe me they know the rules.“)

Anna: (“You killed someone for staring?”)

iku: (“A couple people, yes.“)

Anna: (“Huh… Okay then, if you think it’s gonna be fine, I say go for it!”)

iku scrolls on the listing to find one in her size, it’s at the bottom as the last option.

iku: (“Hah, I’m lucky.”)

iku shows Anna how her size is the biggest one they make.

Anna laughs a bit, truth be told she’s pissed.

Anna: (“Aha.. Yeah.. Yeah you’re real lucky…”)

iku: (“Ah don’t be like that.”)

iku orders the set.
