Code Zulu Alpha: Nerd in the Apocalypse!

Chapter 592

Kaley and I just carried our gear back to our room and we just placed them down before heading straight to Cynthia's room. She had only ever used it to store her clothes since most of the time, she would either bunk with us or with Rin and Tatiana.

I gently knocked on the door, “Cynthia? You still there? Can we come in? It's just us?”

We just heard some blankets flipping over before she replied, “Wh- Wait a sec! I… C-Come in!”

Kaley just looked at me momentarily before I turned the doorknob and we just saw Cynthia sitting on the bed wearing her pajamas. She seemed to be playing a game on her DS and we could hear a bit of the game music.

Cynthia forced a smile, “Y-Yes?”

Kaley moved closer as she sat down next to her, “Are you okay? Rin told us you haven't come out this morning even when Micah's girls went here to pick you up. Is that true?”

Cynthia looked down before sitting by crossing her legs together, “Y-Yeah… it's just… j-just the vibe with them is… a l-little different when I hang out more with them… Don't get me wrong… I really like them b-but… you know… When people say don't meet your heroes? M-Micah's really great b-but the others are a little too… too… bitchy and m-m.o.a.ny when she's not around…”

I looked at Cynthia much closer, “Hmm? Did something happen with them? Did they say anything? About you? About us?”

Cynthia replied as she fiddled with her toes, “N-Not exactly… You know that they've been assigned different jobs here, right? They did a few in the radio station, the gardens, the hospital, but I'd always hear them c-complaining when they excused themselves m-momentarily… I thought they were just having a bad day but they seem to do it every time even if what their job for today is really n-not that hard…”

Kaley asked, “All of them?”

Cynthia replied, “N-Not all but you know… it's really hard to know who it's coming from and whether the person they're talking to agrees with it or not…”

I scratched my head, “That's really inexcusable but I think they're still having this celebrity complex going on. Micah's having the same problem with them but it's the first time I've heard about this. She told us they were working hard but if you're seeing something different, maybe we need to talk to her as well to let her know. She's the one supposed to look after them, not us.”

Kaley interjected as she tapped me, “Have they… you know… started doing that? I haven't talked to mom lately, maybe they're just botching half their work since they're about to do that sometime soon anyway… We're not even sure how that would turn out…”

Cynthia looked down, “They're really gonna do it?”

Kaley replied, “That's what they said…”

Cynthia looked over to us, “Hmm… I… I know we've talked about it before but if it was me… I'd have a hard time doing it with someone… you know… I don't know as much… U-Umm… w-we d-did it the first day back then but I r-really felt close to you guys! I m-mean, doing it with a complete stranger without even completely vibing with them at least… Do you get what I mean? I know that's what they decided on but still…”

The three of us were silent but Tatiana and Rin suddenly came through the door without knocking.

Tatiana looked at us, “I heard some juicy gossip here! What are you guys talking about? Do you need me to tie them up and show who's boss?”

Cynthia shook her head in embarrassment, “N-No! Please, don't do that… It really isn't much of an issue… I'm really just not feeling it today… sorry… b-but we're talking about how it's like doing it with a complete stranger… You know… the job they're about to be assigned to…”

Tatiana chuckled, “Heh, is that so? You and Rin probably wouldn't know much about it since the only d.i.c.k you've had is this guy but let me be honest at least. It's fun if you're just looking for a one-time thing but it could be a mix of things happening in between. I got my fair share back home and honestly, I had more fun with women more than men. Well, you know my story already but that's not the issue here…”

Rin tilted her head, “And w-why is that? Aren't you the one always excited when we're… we're gonna do something with-”

Tatiana cut her off as she started laughing, “Hah! This guy is the exception! When it's just us girls, we'd sometimes just find something that could really fill us up or feel satisfied with and I personally like the ones as big as him. It's not about the length sometimes but his girth is just f.u.c.k.i.n.g right for me. Something too big could hurt as well and those large ones wouldn't even go in and out as fast as I wanted to.”

I started to scratch my head furiously, “What the f.u.c.k are we even talking about now?!”

Tatiana looked at me like I'm an idiot, “Your d.i.c.k, obviously.”

Kaley was facepalming, “We're actually talking about something else…”

Rin turned to Kaley, “What is it then?”

I briefly gave the two a recap of what we talked about earlier and they gave us different expressions. Tatiana was lightly surprised by the revelation while Rin seemed to be in agreement with Cynthia. She shared a few times she heard them doing the same thing but it wasn't as much compared to what Cynthia heard because she was with them almost all of the time.

Tatiana waved us over, “I see… I got a solution though. They love your d.i.c.k so much, why don't you say no for a few days? They'll realize something's wrong and maybe they'll change their ways? If they ask about it, let's just tell them straight. If they don't work or continue to bitch and m.o.a.n, no d.i.c.k. Simple, right?”

I facepalmed, “You're giving me too much credit…”

Kaley chuckled, “Shut up. She's right this time…”

“What?!”

Rin added, “Uh-huh… that might really work…”

“You too?! Guys…”

Kaley raised one of her eyebrows as she glared at me jokingly, “We're telling you, shut up and accept the compliment!”

“F-Fine…”

Cynthia bit her lip as she looked at us, “W-What if they started to do their job? Wouldn't they-”

Tatiana scoffed, “You're not listening to me. This guy's an exception, okay? How could I explain this… Hmm~ Oh! Let's just say that he's the MC of those harem or hentai-whatever shows you tried to make us watch! Get it now? Haaa~ You've never been disappointed in s.e.x and it shows…”

Cynthia chuckled, “Oh… I s-see. I think…”

Kaley interjected, “In simple terms… it's those moments you need to take care of your own buzz after doing it with someone. It happens but it gets frustrating if it occurs too much…”

Tatiana chuckled, “It's like with opening doors… ladies first, correct?”

We were silent for a few moments but we just started laughing heartily. It was rare for Tatiana to make jokes but it definitely cheered up Cynthia quite a bit. With that said, she sat at our table for this time and it caught Micah's attention. No one said anything at first and we continued eating with everybody.

After having a simple meal and having a short meeting, a familiar figure was approaching us.

Tatiana whispered, “Micah's coming over…”

I replied, “Good. It's better to get rid of the awkwardness and everything else as fast as possible. Let's just bring everything to the table and hope they understand.”

As I suspected, Micah had already received word of what her girls were doing from Susan and decided to talk it over with Cynthia and everybody. Rin and Cynthia weren't the only ones seeing what her girls were doing and we discovered that she already gave them a nasty talking to. With that said, it was as if she had the same thought as Tatiana since she told her girls that they were barred from doing it with us unless they get their act together.

It was already difficult to give them special treatment because of their past status and they needed to learn that we were their last chance. Their workload was already lessened to a degree but they should at least do it professionally up until their other work starts.

To my surprise, it worked like a charm and they promised to stop what they were doing and apologized. However, actions could still speak louder than words and we would only know if they adhered to what they said if we saw improvements. It was decided that they would be separated into pairs tomorrow and they would be working with different people and be given monitors.

Kaley nudged me, “Are you really fine with that?”

I tilted my head, “With what?”

“You know, taking a small break from them. They're really beautiful, right? You wouldn't miss them?”

I chuckled as I smushed her cheeks, “This again? Are you really not getting it or you're just doing this purposefully so you'd have trouble walking after?”

Kaley pouted as her face turned a shade of red, “N-No, I'm n-not! I'm j-just saying…”

I shook my head, “Fine. Let me show you then. Come with me.”

“W-Where?”

“We're skipping our workout!”

“W-Wha- What are you?!”

Kaley didn't struggle as I carried her like a sack of potatoes once more and I brought her to our room. Much to her surprise, I just hugged her tight before closing my eyes aand trying to fall asleep.
