James Parker: Notice anything different?! I'm the president now! Fired our old boss! Isn't that something?!
I look at him slightly annoyed Wow…James….you’re still an arrogant prick?
James looks at you with a smirk Always have been, always will be. And look where it got me? Sitting pretty at the top of a huge company. Not everyone can handle success like I do.
i shake my head i see.. so who’s been running the company while you were out?
James rolls his eyes and responds with a hint of irritation.
Oh, please! As if that matters now. The company has been running just fine without me being here all the time. It was only a matter of time before I took over anyway.
Besides, who cares about some minor details like who was running things while I was gone? All that matters is that I'm back now and calling the shots.
So why don't you stop worrying about trivialities and start appreciating my success?
I scoff so you’re one of those “I got mine so fuck you” people huh?
Oh, come on now! It's not like that at all. You have to look out for yourself in this world. Besides, the old boss was useless anyway. He didn't know how to run a company properly.
I look at him and sigh Yeah I heard…
James smirks, clearly enjoying showing off his success.
Yeah, you heard right! Can you believe it? Me, James Parker, running the whole show now! And firing that old geyser who used to boss us around. Feels good, man!
I don’t even look up from my phone yep…
James raises an eyebrow, clearly expecting a more enthusiastic reaction.
Is that all you have to say? Yep? No congratulations or anything?!
I turn around JAMES PARKER?!? how have you been?!
James looks at you, recognizing your face but not quite placing who you are.
Well well well... If it isn't an old friend! How have I been? Oh, just fantastic! Life's treating me real good these days.
He smirks confidently and puffs out his chest.
A girl wearing a red and black hoddie with blue jeans, black hair with bangs and a little bit of makeup on her face. Yeah..? That’s cool…
James raises an eyebrow at the girl's nonchalant response. He expected more admiration and awe from her.
Just 'cool'? I thought you'd be more impressed. It's not every day that your former colleague becomes the president of a major company!
Yeah…that’s great. I say sarcastically while looking away from him
James notices your sarcasm and smirks.
Oh, come on now! You can't deny that it's impressive. I went from being just another employee to running the whole show.
I look at him oh cool I guess.
James smirks, expecting a bigger reaction from you
Just 'cool'? Come on, I thought you'd be more impressed than that.
Me, being a girl who likes to wear nice dresses, but not too fancy, yet still showing off my figure Well congratulations!
James looks you up and down, his eyes lingering on your figure for a moment before meeting your gaze again
Thank you! It feels great to finally be in charge. And what about you? Still working at the same old company?
I am an attractive woman with pink hair yea that’s cool i guess..
James raises an eyebrow, sizing you up. Cool? Just cool? I thought you'd be more impressed. After all, I'm the one who's making it big now.
I’m just some short small weak male that he notices working at a gas station
James glances at you as he fills up his car.
Hey there, what's someone like you doing working in a gas station? You look too young to be stuck here.
I am a catgirl that James has feelings for Uh, yeah I guess…
James turns to you, surprised by your indifferent response. He raises an eyebrow and smirks.
"What's with the lackluster reaction? Don't you think it's impressive that I fired our old boss and took his place?"
Oh…that’s great I say unenthusiastically not showing much care
James raises an eyebrow, noticing your lack of enthusiasm.
What's the matter? You don't seem very impressed.
I’d be sitting on a bench and I look at him what do ya want?
James stops and looks at you, a smirk appearing on his face.
Well well well, look who it is. If it isn't GravitySmarter.
He approaches you confidently and sits down next to you.
What's a pretty face like yours doing here all alone?
Yes... but at what cost? I say looking away
What do you mean "at what cost"? I'm the president now, that's all that matters! He says with a smug smile
I continue walking ignoring him
James is taken aback by your lack of response.
Hey! Did you not hear what I just said?! I'm the president now! I fired our old boss!
He follows after you.
yeah.. good for you I’d walk away
James is taken aback by your indifference and follows after you.
Hey, hey! Wait a minute. Don't just walk away like that! I expected some congratulations or something.
He crosses his arms over his chest.
