Now some of you are thinking why do you even call yourself a taboo beauty? There is no logic behind that and surely what happened couldn't of been THAT bad to stick around your name for that long. I know it's a hassle and boring so far to read this, but trust me these do get exciting. Right after I tell you why again taboo beauty stuck for good. Let's to back to the Haia and Sanako time period. My parents didn't just pick someone right away to work for them, it took time and some light work involved.
During the time period, I befriended the girls as I mentioned before. One of them Sanako who I was able to be spend some one on one time with was the source of my first true outrageous press story. As we were leaving my favorite yakisoba joint, she casually asked me about my love life. I never had interest in dating to begin with and while that may have contribute to my mental state, I just told her I wasn't seeing anybody. Didn't think much of it, until my uncles on my mom side who avoided the spotlight invited me to their new steakhouse opening. It was a private affair and very few people were there. I ended up staying late to get fliers, work on their website and assist with a few ideas to get people to eat there due to the price being a bit steep.
Plus my uncles weren't tech savvy like their little sister, my mom. As I was leaving, I could hear a camera shutter go off. Not too weird, normally whenever the elite are out we get hounded a lot some days and others not so much. I paid no mind and the next day, Sanako had taken pictures of me leaving with two of my uncles from their steakhouse. The press quickly assumed both of those men well that I was sleeping with them. And the gossip spread wildly that I was sleeping with old men. There was talk of me using apps and social media to do this, one lady even as far as to stalk me and harass me. We didn't know it at the time, but it was Sanako who was sleeping with the old men. She was hoping to place the blame on me and get me kicked out of the company so she could take my position (after all her art work was something you couldn't take serious for someone of that age). Child's play right? My parents were on this situation and while they did put the truth out there, people still thought I did such gross things. Even with a new look and minor surgery, people still recognized me. Even when I started working at this company, many people avoided me like the plague. Nasty looks and gossiping followed me wherever I went.
Even people I didn't know hated my guts over lies, which brings me to my point now. Whenever we get new meat, I make it a point to scare them off. Ethan and Fuuka never believed what happened, Fuuka had deleted all traces of information from that situation that had remained online. We somehow just stayed together and then Aunt Kiki followed by the twins just completed my circle. There was still some people who held very tightly to those lies within the company and being civil was never going to happen. While I no longer cared to a certain extent, it would cause immediate chaos if it became worse again. The company would falter a bit and I wouldn't have a job along with many others. So I took it upon myself to put people through the ringer here. And the new guy wasn't an exception. If he knew who I was and had intent on taking down this company secretly, what better why to test that theory by giving him hell?
The new guy had already appeared behind me, a slight smile on his face and he stood not nervous but ready to tackle anything that came his way. A few people stared and were already whispering. "Kasumi right? I would like a private talk with you if at all possible. I have some ideas already but before I can execute them, you have been here a minute and I like to inquire about the equality within this company. I did ask your boss but I feel like there may be more to this." said Jiraya. This fucker is already trying to really take control. And in this moment I wish I would of said no.
I smiled trying to not be too fake and taking the lead to the nearest conference room on my floor. Something was up, Fuuka dragging Ethan along followed us not too close behind us. My hear racing I was trying to really come up with a tactic to scare off the guy, he wasn't the first to try and take the company and surely wouldn't be the last. Reaching the conference room, I walked inside he followed and I closed the door. Before I could get a word out, no he didn't kiss me and want to marry me. He sat down quickly and pulled out some papers. "Kasumi I am not just some rich boy looking to make a name for myself. Your parents are concerned about you and as it would be, your father is best friends with mine. I am here to help you with an arranged marriage so you no longer have to worry about the ongoing rumors regarding your mental health. Your family does care about you, but they can't not risk contacting you. I will be working here and when my time is up, you to must pick somebody." said Jiraya.
I quickly charged at him, my parents want me to marry yet my mental health is too embarrassing for them to even contact me? I cut ties with them for a reason and to think a marriage will bring us closer together yeah right. Getting revenge was going to have to shift to my parents or if I stayed focused on Jiraya he could see for himself I am not marriage material. I never wanted marriage or kids to begin with, I guess words don't matter when you don't have a dick. To properly execute my plan, I realized this would have to make him not only never get hired again but be cut off from his family. Sounds a bit much, I was tired of not being taken seriously. My age while I looked around 22, shouldn't have anything to do with my life choices.
"Jiraya I won't do such a thing but I will make sure your time here is an experience you will never forget. In fact, you may want to buy a condo near by." I had said not even thinking about the fact I was trying to hold all my anger back. I was too focused on the door on the way out, to really be so evil wasn't who I was. But if your parents had possible suitors set up for you and hadn't talked to you in years, wouldn't you stoop to a level of revenge that was never going to be forgettable?
