Sookie pouts. "Come on, Aka. It's not as though you want anything to do with it."
"You sent one foot in that building and I'm retracting my resignation and personally ruining you," Aka says, leaning closer to Sookie. "I'd like to see you keep your self in Versace and Gucci without my money and the money you've been draining off your moronic businessmen."
"You wouldn't," Sookie hisses.
"Told you she wouldn't do it," Nadia mutters.
"I would, Sookie. I'm sick and tired of paying off your family, and I'm not doing it anymore. In any way."

Tall had the strong urge to stand up and applaud right then and there. But curiouisity also beguiled his mind. What were the two talking about?

"I have Sandi's recommendation, and my father's and... And..."
"And the recommendations of..." Aka trailed off in mock thought. "Four prominent businessmen, right? Well, as I already said, Sookie, one foot and your down. I'm still in charge until a replacement is found, and I still have veto power over them all."
Nadia shakes her head. "Give it up, Sook, she's not bending."
"No! I have to have that job!"
"You couldn't handle that job, Sookie. It involves a brain."
"You've cut me off and you're not even giving me an alternative?" Sooki easks, outraged.
"No, I've left you with you four men who are quite content to shower you with gifts and money. But I can take them away with a phone call." Sookie's eyes narrowed, but Aka continued. "Do you think they'd like knowing that you sleep around? I doubt it. And if you get anywhere near Zephyr, I'll know, and then they'll know. All four of them. So be content with what you've got, Sookie, and leave me out of it." She turned away from Sookie's gaping face, looking back at Tall.
"So which one did you want me to try?"

Tall watched interestly until Aka had turned around, feigning indifference in the whole matter, if only out of spite for Sookie. He smiled cutely, bringing the chopsticks up again. "This one, the catepillar roll," he says oozing with sweetness.

She nods, opening her mouth obediently. She closes her lips around the roll, chewing tentatively. "Yum," she says after swallowing.
Realizing that she's not going to get another word out of Aka, Sookie rises and turns to the door. "Come on, Nadia."
"But I'm not done with my aoyagi!" she protests, pointing at her half finished plate. At Sookie's hard stare, she sighs, rising. "Fine..." She drops some money on the table to cover the half-eaten food and follows Sookie out the door.

Tall smiles, tiltling his head just slightly. "You handled that extremely well....whatever that was..."

"Just sick of her shit," Aka replies perkily. "What's that?" she asks, pointing at another roll, trying to avoid the subject.

Tall raised an eyebrow at her, frowning silently. Without taking his eyes off of her, he merely said, "Banana Kick."

"Yum?" she asks, before reaching out with her chopstick and grabbing it, popping it into her mouth.

Tall sighs heavily, noting that she didn't want to tell him.

She chews avidly, smiling. "What next?"

He smiles weakly. "Well darling, whatever you'd like to try." He regained a little more of his good humor, letting the incident be forgotten. "There's a spider roll over there, and a volcano..."

"Spider or volcano? Hmmm... How about the spider?" She snatches one up, eating it before grabbing the volcano roll and offering it to him.

He smiles, taking it from her. And so the cute little date continues?

Quite. They polish off the sushi eventually. "Now what?" Aka asks, placing her chopsticks on the plate.
