Dai's POV

Monday came in a flash and I've not been able to get adequate sleep due my busy schedule, preparing to train my junior developer with whom I can work with cause the last one almost leaked the source code for a program we were building for a security firm to an anonymous competitor.

This has given me serious trust issues with the employees in the company which myself and Mr. Denzel my partner built from scratch.

As senior Software Programmer and the company's lawyer my work load requires me to have a junior developer.

I suggested for my new assistant to be fresh out of the University and luckily our best applicant just graduated so I'm required to train this applicant for 6months before we dive into major projects.

Work isn't the only thing taking my sleep away but a certain greyish blue eyes beauty which has been giving me frequent Hard-ons, I tried the strip clubs with Akira but I couldn't get to the end of a fucking session without seeing her face.

So I gave up and fueled my energy on my work and I plan to invest all that energy on the new applicant with the training.

I arrive at the office before everyone to prepare the first task for the junior developer and possibly welcome Her into the company.

I'm distracted from some few rules of my own for the junior developer from my phone vibrating on my mahogany desk,

" Hey Broooo " Akira says with a thick Japanese accent, the guy didn't take his English lessons too seriously before and got stuck with the our Japanese accent even when he's clearly speaking English.

"Hey Broooo, still playing with the ladies?" I say and put the phone on speaker "No bro, got a splitting headache from all the booze I had last night, could not get any work done with my partner down there" he says chuckling

"so to what do I owe the honour of receiving a call from His Highness" I joke straight to the point cause Akira never calls early in the morning if it doesn't involve the ladies.

" Have you seen a picture of your new junior developer, like is she sexy or hot or both, it'll be a pleasure if you can introduce me to her you know....." he keeps ranting and I laugh knowing I was right about him.

Akira has always been marked as a popular ladies man which was after rumors started spreading that we could be gay when we decided to abstain from sex and pursue our goals, seems like Akira took it too personal by fucking almost half of Tokyo who wore skirts and blouses.

"Bro we requested for their pictures to be taken off their file so we could better grade their projects equally without any gender inequality, if not many wouldn't have voted in the lady whose project was deemed best" I say checking my watch knowing the office will soon be filled with employees including my Junior developer

"true, men and their ego. I'll let you be Mr. dragon and I'm looking forward to seeing your new developer" he says and quickly hangs up without giving me a chance to say something, sneaky bastard.

I hear a knock on my door and ask the person to come in seeing that it was my secretary she greeted me and briefed me on my schedule for today with the main one being training my Junior developer for most of the hours.

" would you like anything else Sir?" she ask and I wave a dismissive hand towards her.

I relax back on my chair and try to get my head into work and forget about a certain lady tormenting my sexually active senses, I think about the upcoming party in two weeks and wonder who I'll text as my plus one.

Juni my recent ex of my two months relationship still sends me messages once in a while and I don't think she'll have a problem mingling with the high class of Society as they refer to themselves,

she has always been into wealthy men but I couldn't stand her after two whole fucking months cuz all I did was focus on the company while she shopped from one boutique to the other with my card.

I pray I get a substitute soon or I'll have to bare with the gay rumors.
