Carson
[Sit down on his chair] ...Have you started digging?
Delia (Secretary)
[shake head] ...I am requesting a day off, Mr. President [bow head lightly]
Carson
[glance down the folder on his desk] Very well
Carson
Since you finished all this work, go on and have two days-off instead
Carson
Just be sure to finish the other task
Delia (Secretary)
Yes, expect it by tomorrow, Mr. President
Delia (Secretary)
Then I shall excuse myself [bow head lightly, leave the office]
Carson
... [flip through the portfolio] Hm
Carson
[picks it up while scanning through the pages]
Zeke (Assistant)
He's asking for you…
Carson
(Oh) [look over his watch]
Carson
[stand up from his chair] Has he eaten?
Zeke (Assistant)
Uh no... actually, the drug hasn't subsided yet. He's struggling a lot-
Zeke (Assistant)
Geez... he hung up on me
Shigiri
[drank the glass of water and hands it over] Thank...you
Zeke (Assistant)
Haha... you really can't put on yer clothes right now?
Zeke (Assistant)
[cover his face] He's going to be 𝒑𝒊𝒔𝒔𝒆𝒅
Carson
[barge in the hotel room]
Carson
[was going to ask a question but saw Shigiri's condition]
Shigiri
[𝑵𝒂𝒌𝒆𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒗𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅 𝒊𝒏 𝒂 𝒃𝒍𝒂𝒏𝒌𝒆𝒕, 𝒕𝒆𝒂𝒓𝒚, 𝒇𝒍𝒖𝒔𝒕𝒆𝒓𝒆𝒅...]
One way to put it, it was the very visual of some kind of bully victim, ahem-
Carson
Zeke...? [menacing]
Zeke (Assistant)
I can explain please spare me some words, Mr. President [quickly]
Carson
[scoffs] That’s it?
Zeke (Assistant)
Yeah~... So please give me a break
Zeke (Assistant)
The guy over there is too stubborn for me to handle. In the end, he asked me to call for you
Carson
[glance over Shigiri]
Zeke (Assistant)
[sigh] ...Seriously, he wasn't even playing hard to get
Carson
[walk towards the bed] Get out, and go back home
Zeke (Assistant)
[already one step to the door] Of course~ [leave immediately]
Zeke (Assistant)
[opens the door] Uh sorry~ Can I have my jacket back?
Zeke (Assistant)
[catches] Thank you so much~! [close the door]
Zeke (Assistant)
[with the jacket hung on his right arm, he loosened his neck tie with the other arm]
Zeke (Assistant)
[walk away]
Carson
(I'll kick his @ss tomorrow)
Shigiri
...You're Carson B. Windsor?
Shigiri
I um asked your asisstant for your name....
Shigiri
Anyway... thank you...
Shigiri
If it weren't for you, I would have been in serious danger
He gazed on his fingers clenching the bed sheets with a somber look
Carson
[eyebrows raised] Is that why you called me here?
Carson
[brows lightly knitted, but relaxed eventually] Oh... I thought you asked me here to help you
Carson
With your condition
Shigiri
?? [follow his eyes and glance down on his crotch]
His pink cheeks overshdowed with blood rushing to his face turning red as a rose. It seemed he had temporarily forgotten he was still in... "that" state
Shigiri
I...I will be fine [bow down to hide his face]
Carson
It's all right. Just tell me what needs to be done
Shigiri
I... I called you here to thank you
Carson
Well, it would make sense if you called me for that as well [pick up his blazer on the floor]
Carson
No problem, it had to be done after all
Carson
So [hang his coat on the coat/hat stand] Do you need me to dress you up? Feed you?
Carson
[glance toward him] Or is it that-
Shigiri
N-No.. No! [shake his head profusely hidng his face in the blanket]
Shigiri
Just to thank you... nothing else
Carson
[frown a bit] I didn't just come here just to hear your gratitude, right?
Carson
I thought that there was something else that you need of me since you didn't like Zeke's asisstance
Shigiri
[blanket shook sideways interpreting in disagreement] I-It was not like that!
Carson
Did I only misinterpret it?
Shigiri
Yes, please don’t think of what happened before you came that way
Shigiri
Mr. Zeke and I couldn’t do anything to my situation either
Shigiri
So I suggested him to call you
Shigiri did not respond to that, so the room was only a place for silence at this moment
But Shigiri had to wonder
Carson
[lift the blanket to expose his face]
Carson
… [lips curls up into an amused smile]
Carson
I have yet to realize you tend to act coy until now
Shigiri
[stunned speechless]
