SPOILED ROTTEN || SAIDA

Dahyun smiled up at the Minatozaki building, no longer feeling the initial intimidation or inadequacy. She wasn’t the same girl from three weeks ago, who wore untied shoes and shirts with holes in them. She was Minatozaki Sana’s sugar baby, dammit, and that made her important.

She walked in with her head held high, daring to meet people’s gaze as she passed by. She knew she looked out of place; a college student wearing a bubble-pink skirt and hair tied into space buns.

She looked good and she knew it.

“Ms Kim.” The receptionist called, bowing slightly, “Would you like me to escort you?”

“No, that’s fine, I have my keycard.” Dahyun said, not stopping.

She was referring to the keycard that hung around her neck by a lanyard. It gave her access to Sana’s office, a gift from Sana herself. And damn, did it feel good to rub that gift in the receptionist’s face.

Dahyun hopped in the elevator and pressed the top floor button. It asked for an access code and Dahyun simply scanned her keycard. In a few moments, she was rising fifty floors.

She pulled out the lipstick from her jacket pocket and applied it, coating her lips in a pastel-pink colour. She wanted to look her best today because she knew what was impending.

Sana promised her they were going to discuss taking their relationship further. Dahyun didn’t know what to expect and honestly, she was nervous. She just knew that she wanted to be intimate with Sana at some point and this discussion was probably necessary, now that she thought about it with a clear head.

The elevator dinged as it came to a stop and the doors slid open. Dahyun stepped inside and was greeted by the sight of Sana seated at her desk.

The Japanese woman looked up from her papers and noticed it was Dahyun. A brilliant smile broke out on her face.

That reaction of pure joy always made Dahyun’s heart flutter.

She headed inside and grinned at Sana, who was already making her way across the office to meet her. Whenever Dahyun visited her office, Sana would drop everything and pay full attention to her. It was indescribably heartwarming.

“Hello love.” Sana murmured as she pulled Dahyun in for a hug.

The two embraced and Dahyun swore she felt lighter at Sana’s touch. She giggled and said, “You look great for someone who has a hangover.”

Sana laughed and pulled away, saying, “I have a secret hangover medication that only takes one dose to fix it.”

“Wow.” Dahyun said, “What is it?”

“Looking at you.”

Dahyun blushed bright red, not expecting that response in the slightest. Sana grinned at her reaction and was about to say something when she froze. Dahyun knew exactly why she did so.

Sana reached up and trace her finger across Dahyun’s neck. Her touch left Dahyun shivering.

“Is this from last night?” Sana asked, inspecting the love-bite. It was bright red and stood up against the pale skin of Dahyun’s neck.

Dahyun’s eyes fluttered closed as she nodded. She wanted to enjoy Sana’s gentle touch for as long as she could.

Sana cupped Dahyun’s neck and asked, “Why didn’t you cover this up?”

“Because you gave it to.” Dahyun murmured, adding, “Besides, it lets people know I belong to someone.”

Sana hummed and said, “If I knew you had a kink for hickies, I would’ve given you them sooner.”
