Am I Too Nice For The Bossy President
Meeting
Dahlia
I'm running late to office again, it will be this week's third time
Dahlia
(Hello, I'm dahlia and I'm one of the underrated yet intelligent lawyer in this area, age?? Just turned 30 this year and this is my usual life like).......running late again
Dahlia
If I hadn't stayed late watching that...*huffs*...drama I wouldn't be in this situation..*tries to increase speed*
Suddenly she crashes into someone.
old man
Ohhh...my back..*holding his back*...youngsters these days can't even see a old man walking...
He looks up to see Dahlia
Dahlia
I'm really sorry are you alright *moves forward to give her hand*
old man
Oh my, what a beautiful lady *reaches for the hand*........look at this mess........*looking around around the path*
Her eyes falls into a necklace and picks it up
Dahlia
(What a pretty necklace)
Dahlia
(Was I staring at it)
Dahlia
*nods her head with a small hint of smile*
old man
Then have it *gives a smile*
Dahlia
But I can't have it, it looks expensive.
old man
Whose saying that I'm giving it for free *raises his eyebrow*
Dahlia
Sorry but I'm not interested in such jewellery
old man
*Makes a small, pitiable face almost like crying*
old man
I almost broke my back running into you and you can't even buy a necklace to pay for my doctor's fee
Dahlia
I can pay for you...
Dahlia
*taking out her purse*
old man
*stops her* I beleive in hard earned money my dear...*looking deeply into her eyes*
Dahlia
(I thought this was a new way to snatch money from people but from the words of his, he sounds like he's being honest. I need to respect his self esteem)
Dahlia
Ok, I'll buy it. How much does it cost?
old man
Ah...it's not expensive just $75
Dahlia
*internally and externally already broke*
Dahlia
(strip me off baby)
Dahlia
(I believe these ordinary necklace cost around $1 during festival carts)
Dahlia
Isn't it too expensive...?
old man
Of course not, because it's not some ordinary necklace that are easily available in Street carts for an dollar.
Dahlia
.....................
old man
It gives good luck.
old man
*gives a warm yet shady smile*
Dahlia
(I think I can't fight against this guy and the necklace is also pretty, might even need some luck)
old man
Ok, it's a deal...how would you like to pay for it *grins*
Dahlia makes her payment and was ready to leave
The old man searches through his pockets, twirls and poses; with his one hand on his waist and other holding an orb.
old man
Since your my first customer today I would like to give this orb on a discounted offer of $200...
Before he could continue, Dahlia takes off her shoes and points out her shoe
Dahlia
You know what is the speciality of this shoe? This is not an ordinary shoe that you see in the shop for $20.
old man
...........................
Dahlia
It's hard enough to beat up a person without ripping.
old man
*sweats profusely*
old man
Oh my look at the time, I had a date today with Mrs. Pinto and I also need to make appointment with the doctor because of certain circumstances.....*leaves from the scene*
The old man leaves in a hurry.
Dahlia
Today my luck is the worst, this old man and I'm running lat- 😳
Dahlia
Oh no...because of this old guy, I forgot that I was running late *increases her speed enough to outrun Usian Bolt*
The signal is about to change green.
Dahlia
I need to cross as soon as possible...*runs even faster*
While crossing the road she was about to hit a over speeding truck but disappears into thin air.
Author
Please be careful while crossing the road.
Are you with me?
Dahlia slowly opens her eyes
Dahlia
God...my head hurts a lot...Where am I?..Huh!?
She is surprised to see the place around her, she could see different colours, angles, tangents on every corner of her.
Dahlia
What's going on here... *in a puzzled face*
Dahlia
Is anyone here *almost in the verge of tears*
Dahlia
*starts looking throughout*
Dahlia
Where are you and where am I?
Suddenly a young boy jumps infront of her.
system
Hello, I'm system...*with a warm smile*
Dahlia
(Damn...Am I in heaven. Is this an angel)
system
*With a stern look* Do u remember what happened to you...?
system
I asked do you remember...what happened to you.
Dahlia
I was running late to office and while I was trying to cross the road...
Dahlia
(Wait!!! I was about to crash into a truck, I was supposed to be dead...So I'm dead)
System glanced at dahlia and he could see her confused and horrified face.
system
I think you remember that you were about to crash- *looks at dahlia*
Dahlia
*sniff*....*sniff*....did I die so soon..*sniff*...my dream to become one of the famous lawyer in the country is a dream afterall..*sniff*
Seeing her cry, system starts panicking.
system
*Panicking* Wait don't cry...Your not dead...I mean your not dead yet..
system
Well you were supposed to be dead-
Dahlia
So I'm already dead...*starts crying like a crow* *tears starts flowing from her cheeks just like Niagara falls*
system
*Irritated* Could you hear me out...*in an angry tone* your not yet dead woman; you were saved because of this pendant of yours.
Dahlia
You mean this pendant, which was given by that shady old man!?
system
It's not a normal pendant, it's used to travel in between space and time. Don't think of this as an ordinary pendant. You were lucky enough to get the right pendant too.
system
Yes, this orb that you see in the pendant are transferred into different dimension in different forms...you got it in the form of pendant.
Dahlia
You mean out of all the jewels that the old man had this was the real deal. You mean he isn't some agent who sells these orbs??
system
Of course not, these orbs aren't something to sell to anyone, it chooses its own master. If you weren't lucky enough you would had been crushed in that accident.
system
Oh! I forgot to tell you the main thing.
system
*clears his throat*
system
Welcome, you are one of the people who were chosen by this orb to save the falling female leads from this messy storyline.
Dahlia
Save...Messy storyline..female leads
..I don't understand.
system
As I said there are many novels and comics that portray the female leads weak and make them suffer the worst tortures. You might be knowing some of them.
System looks at dahlia for a response.
Dahlia
Well, that's true I have seen many storyline where they treat female leads worse than trash and make them suffer a lot just to get the attention of people.
system
So you do realise it? *looking at dahlia for a response*
system
I won't completely blame on the authors because the key element in writing these storyline are played by the readers itself.
system
The answer to all these cruelty is fiction.....
Dahlia
Yea, I was one of those readers too who loved beauty and beast story but once I got into law school and started to think practically...these are crimes that cannot be left unnoticed...it makes the person suffer both mentally and physically leading to series of trauma. It's easy to say that it's a comic or novel and nothing is real but it's hard to ignore crime.
System looks surprised almost impressed by her words and gives a huge smile
system
Yes and we are here to change those harsh and cruel destiny of our beautiful female leads.*grins*
System gives forward his hand
system
*with a soft tone*
Are you with me dahlia? 🙂
Author
I hope you understand it's still crime and don't ignore crime only because it's some novel or comic don't let it effect your conscious
Up for it
System places his hand before her waiting for a response.
Dahlia looks confused and hesitant.
Dahlia
*hesitantly* Is this.....
Dahlia
Is this some kind of dream...am I in some reality show or is it that I'm still sleeping...?
System looks disappointed and takes back his hand.
Dahlia
This place is too real for a set...
Dahlia
...this must be one of my wet dreams...
Dahlia
*looks at system impatiently*
system
THIS IS NOT A DREAM DUMB WOMAN!!
System pinches one of dahlia's cheek until it's pink.
Dahlia
Ouuccccchh...it hurts *in pain*
Dahlia clasps her cheek in pain and notices system's burning face.
system
Is this enough!? This is not some dream!!
Dahlia
*dumbfounded* So this is not a dream..ha?
system
You can only return back if you complete the given task or you'll be stuck in this place and won't be able to return back...
system
*in an unconcerned tone* I don't know how to send people back once called. So the only option is to stay here *smirk*
system
So? What do you choose?
Dahlia
I have lot of dreams in my life so it's obvious I choose to co-operate.
system
So your first mission is....
Suddenly the entire place is covered in high intensity of light.
system
This is your first comic...
Dahlia
Well I could definitely say this is straight up from someone's...ah... you know...fantasy...
system
Well I can't say anything against it...
Dahlia
I used to like this a lot back in my school days but when I re-read it as an adult I thought of banging my head against the wall...
Hearing this, System couldn't stop laughing...
Dahlia
Maybe I'll be more than happy to change Nina's life.
Dahlia
*a determined smile*
System looks at Dahlia for a second.
system
So are you up for it?
Author
