Cabbage Corp Headquarters
Lau Gan-Lan Jr. sits back at his desk drinking a bottle of water; it looks like his skin is red, boiling from the inside out. He takes a deep breath, steam vapors waft from his body as the color begins to return to his face.
He takes long deep breaths through his mouth then sits up straight looking and feeling more relaxed. "Ahh…that's better." He sighs. "Now let's see how little Oma and Shu are doing shall we." He says emitting a strange clicking sound from his throat. A small centipede crawls from his closet then up his arm. The little bug bites his throat.
Lau closes his eyes and sees a vision of Asami crying sitting in her bathtub with her knees tucked into her chest. Lau opens his eyes and sighs. "Oh come now Asami, it couldn't have been that bad. Women can be so fickle, this won't do at all." He says sitting back in his chair rubbing his chin. He could still see his venom coursing through her body.
Lau sighs. "Hum, perhaps I've been going about this the wrong way." He takes a deep breath and closes his eyes as the centipede bites him again. He breathes through his nose as the bug in Asami's apartment moves closer to her. "Let's change the station. How about damsel in distress…"
Asami's Apartment
"Korra…." Asami whimpers as she puts her forehead on her knees.
Asami had driven for hours with blurry tear filled eyes in utter anguish. She wasn't thinking when she left Korra so suddenly. She just couldn't understand what happened. It was all a dream and then it was suddenly real. She couldn't forgive herself for what she had done.
When she got home, she immediately called her assistant.
"Uhh…hello? Miss Sato?" Chelse asks sleepily. There were only two people who would ever call her that early in the morning.
"Chelse." Asami says taking a deep breath composing herself. "Sorry for the late call, I just wanted you to know that I'll be taking a few days off okay." She says wiping her nose.
Chelse furrows her brow trying to wake herself up. "Uummm…give me a second." She sits up and turns on the light on her night stand and pulls a folder from the drawer. She yawns into the phone. "Okay…." She says yawning again. "You have vehicle inspections tomorrow, I can reschedule that, then a meeting with the president this upcoming Tuesday….how long did you need?"
Asami takes a deep breath. "I guess… until Tuesday." She says.
Chelse yawns again. "Things must have gone well with Korra, huh."
Asami closes her eyes. "See you Tuesday Chelse." She hangs up the phone.
Chelse furrows her brow hearing the phone click.
The raven haired beauty trembles as she makes her way upstairs to her bathroom staring at her right hand, still stained with Korra's blood.
She sits in the bathtub unable to stop her tears. "This isn't what I wanted. This wasn't how it was supposed to be." She whispers. Asami had no idea how she was going to face Korra after what she had done.
The frightened yet confused expression on her girlfriend's face had been burned into her mind. She cries even harder. "Korra, I…I…I'm sorry." She groans crying so hard that her chest is convulsing. She's devastated knowing that she had unconsciously taken her girlfriend's virginity.
Her mind flashed back to the man she dated before Mako. He was the first man that her father had approved of. She liked him, but she wasn't in love with him. They only dated for 3 weeks, but she recalled the night things went too far. He tried to force himself on her. She remembers her fear as well as her anger. If she hadn't had years of martial arts training who knows what would have happened. Of course the man was never heard from again thanks to her father.
