I Told You So
31_days, August 15
Those five stacks of unsigned reports remained as such when she returned to the council office, the president nowhere in sight.
A dark eyebrow twitched in annoyance. That bastard.
“Shaina, I’m sending this-”
Behind her, Mikhail fell into a short silence.
“Oh,” he noted flatly. That only made Shaina even more tempted to run out of the room and scream the stupid president’s name through the intercom. “No wonder the loo was shut down again.”
The loo. The fucking loo. All this time, that damn bastard was at the fucking loo, procrastinating till kingdom come while here she was, missing classes just to pick up his slack, which kept piling up with each second.
“I’m going to kill him.” She growled under her breath.
“Aren’t you doing that everyday?”
“Shut up.”

In the end, she beat the shit out of the president before killing him, after which she revived him so she could kill him the next day, in case he decided to go MIA again.
And as she grilled the council president mercilessly, slapping and slamming the poor guy’s head with papers and folders with paperclips and god knows what else, (was that a stapler?!) Mikhail watched from the corner, a slight quirk of his lips expressing his amusement.
“You will finish this by 3. Do otherwise and you will taste my fist again.”
Shaina might as well stress the entire sentence with the way she’s gritting her teeth, fingers dangerously close to stabbing their poor president’s eyes.
“Shaina, please, this is beyond-”
“I will not hear more of it!”
And Mikhail sighed wistfully, because that’s all he could do as he walk out, leaving the badly abused president to the evil secretary.
