The Female Lead Is A Lesbian - Volume 1 Chapter 30 We Need To Talk
Zoey woke up in the morning with a beaming smile. Instead of feeling tired and groggy she was couldn’t wait to get her day started. She got up and stretched her arms above her head and grabbed her hairbrush. She didn’t even mind the broken bristles and happily smoothed out her hair.
She then started opening her drawers and started to search through them. She held her chin in frustration as none of her clothes seemed right for today. All of her clothes were just plain t-shirts, pants, jeans, and jackets. She wondered how she could solve her dilemma when a lightbulb went off in her head. She then closed her eyes and entered her system.
She was then surrounded by her beloved creations, clothes, and cash. “Oh, Sky!” she called out cheerfully. Sky then appeared in front of her wearing a long-sleeved black shirt paired with matching black shorts and black socks and shoes.
[Miss Zoey! What are you doing here?]
Though his words sounded surprised Sky’s eyes were shimmering with joy when he looked at her. Zoey smiled and pet his head, ” I can really get used to you having a physical appearance, especially when you’re this precious. And also when you have absolutely no poker face.” she chimed. His face turned a light pink and he looked down at his feet.
Zoey chuckled, ” *hahaha* Anyway, I’m here because I need an upgrade of my wardrobe and I’m also here to snuggle you.” She then scooped Sky up in her arms and kissed his cheek. Sky’s face then turned from a light pink to bright red and he stuttered, ” W-well we still need to f-find you something to wear! S-so please put me down!”
Zoey loved seeing Sky so fl.u.s.tered but she didn’t have a lot of time so she reluctantly put him down. Once he was back his feet Sky quickly straightened himself up and cleared his throat. Zoey snickered slightly as Sky’s ears we’re still beet red despite him trying to act more mature.
Sky then flicked his wrist and several clothes flew up into the air and swirled around. The clothes then hovered around Zoey in large circular patterns. Zoey looked around at all the clothing in the air and rubbed her chin again. “Sky give me something badass, preferably in black,” she asked.
The clothes swirled around again and a few of them floated towards Zoey. It was a black t-shirt with ‘BE BAD’ in big white bold letters on the front. Along with that was a leather jacket, leather pants, large black lace-up boots, and black sunglasses. Zoey looked at them and shook her head, ” Good but, I need something a little more professional. *AH* I know, pick me out a nice black suit and shoes, keep the sunglasses, and thrown in a nice watch,” she requested.
Sky nodded and once again the clothes swirled around and the clothes Zoey asked for floated towards her. This time it was a black suit jacket and pants, a white button-up collared shirt, a black tie, black socks, black leather shoes, a pair black sunglasses, and a black watch with a leather strap. Zoey grew a large smile and nodded her head in approval. She quickly stripped off her pajamas and put on her clothes.
When Zoey was done getting dressed in her suit, she put the sunglasses on and looked at Sky with a grin. “So sweetie, how do I look?” Zoey asked sweetly. Sky’s eyes filled with hearts and awe.
[So cool! Miss Zoey, you look so cool and amazing!]
Zoey flashed a beaming smile and took a look at her watch. “Ooh! I gotta get going, today is gonna be an amazing day!” She exclaimed. Before she left Zoey gave Sky one more hug before exiting the system and ended up back in her room.
Zoey then stepped in front of her mirror and gawked at her reflection. She smirked and slightly arranged her hair to make some sit on her chest and the rest on her back. “Damn, I am smoking.” She said to herself in a sultry voice before walking out of her room.
She tiptoed into the kitchen where Chloe slept peacefully on the floor. Zoey crept over to her and lifted her up in her arms and once again she walked into her room and tucked Chloe into her bed.
Zoey gave Chloe a kiss on her head and turned to leave when she felt a tug on her sleeve. Zoey whipped her head around to see Chloe gazing at her with a sleepily and clutching her sleeve. “Zoey?” Chloe asked in a groggy tone. Zoey immediately got on her knees and gently clutched her hand.
“Mom, I’m sorry did I wake you?” Zoey asked softly. Chloe moved her hand to caress Zoey’s cheek and asked, ” No, I was up all night worrying because you had left so early which was unlike you and then you came home so late. I was so worried but then you came home you were dressed so strangely and you had blood on you. But I noticed how tired you were so I didn’t say anything then. But now that I have you, I have to ask, are you in some kind of trouble and don’t you dare lie to me.”
Zoey smiled and leaned her head into Chloe’s hand, ” Mom, I promise you I am not in any trouble. I can’t tell you everything but I’m working on something great. So you don’t have to worry because I’m gonna make sure that you, Zack, and Noah have the life you all deserve.” She sweetly said.
Chloe looked into Zoey’s eyes and caressed her cheek, she once again could see her daughter was telling the truth but she could also see that Zoey was also hiding something from her. Chloe gave Zoey a stern gaze and said, ” Zoey I know you’re telling me the truth but I can also see you’re hiding something from me. Now you’re an a.d.u.l.t and I have no right to force it out of you but I hope you know and remember that whatever it is you can tell me and I will help you with the best of my abilities. Moreover, you should’ve told me you were wearing a suit I could’ve helped you fix your tie.”
Zoey snickered, ” *hahaha* Mom believe me if I was in trouble I would make sure that whoever who caused me any difficulty gets it right back. You know how some people say an eye for an eye well I, on the other hand, say, an arm, leg, tongue, and vital organ for an eye. Also, mom, I’d never dream of lying to you may I be struck with lighting and live! If I ever do. Also, my tie isn’t that bad, is it?”
Chloe sighed internally as she knew Zoey had no plan on telling her anything soon and that there were some things Zoey was never gonna tell her. She was slightly upset for a moment but quickly got over herself and gave Zoey a light smile. “My little girl is so grown up she’s already got so many secrets, oh well, doesn’t change the fact that she holds me so close to her heart and when it comes down to it I would fight tooth and nail for her and her brother,” Chloe said to herself.
Zoey smiled back at her and gently took Chloe’s hand off her cheek and laid it back down at her side. “Alright mom I gotta get going, get some rest, and I’ll let you know if I’ll be late, I love you,” Zoey said sweetly and Chloe’s eyes gently closed and she fell into a blissful rest. Zoey then stood up and quietly exited the room. She silently closed the door behind her and quickly walked out the front door.
Once Zoey started walking down the street she asked Sky, ” Oh Sky honey, can you give the address of Marvin Fei.”
[Yes miss Zoey]
…..
(At the Fei residence)
Zoey arrived at a huge mansion with lush gardens in the front, with large beautifully crafted hedges and sculptures. Zoey walked to the door and lightly knocked on the door. While Zoey stood at the door she looked around and was honestly a bit surprised. This was because after the video of Marvin was uploaded he was shunned, received hate mail, and there were rumors of people vandalizing his property.
His father was also shunned by the community and dozens of his employees quit. His mother was called filthy names and was even assaulted in public, and soon enough she confined herself to her house. So Zoey expected there to be a commotion, toilet paper, and eggs all over the place but it was quiet, one could even say it was peaceful.
Zoey stopped looking around when the door finally opened. The one who answered was a cute young-looking maid with her hair in twin braids. The maid studied Zoey with a suspicious gaze before asking, ” Hello, I’m Katherine a maid here. How can I help you?” All the while she hid behind the door ready to slam it shut.
Zoey grinned at her making Katherine recoil back, ” Hello I’m here to see Marvin Fei.” Katherine’s face turned into a scowl and she sneered, ” *Hah* You people are getting more and more ballsy, huh? Wanna send hate messages in person? Just send a letter or a text like everyone else, you ass!” Katherine tried to slam the door on her only for Zoey to stop the door by using her arm.
Katherine was shocked by this and tried to close the door with all her might but it was to no avail as Zoey successfully opened the door. Zoey then approached Katherine with a smile and said, ” Now, now, I’m not here to cause trouble. I go to the same school as Marvin and one could even say that we’re friends. I just wanna talk to him, honest.”
Katherine glared at Zoey with suspicion and rage when unexpectedly Zoey pinched Katherine’s chin. She then said in a sultry tone, ” But, I could talk to you instead.” Katherine turned a deep red and Zoey leaned in closer to whisper in her ear, ” Such a cute, feisty, little thing like you I could eat you up in one bite.” Zoey then licked Katherine’s ear making her cry out, “*EEEEK*”
After Katherine cried out, Zoey finally let go of her chin and stared at shivering beet red Katherine. “Unfortunately, I really need to speak to Marvin. So can you show me where he is, please?” Zoey asked kindly. Katherine was silent for a second and when she responded it was with a small nod.
Katherine then started to walk away and Zoey followed her. They eventually reached a large staircase and became to climb. Zoey followed behind Katherine and could see her ears were still red. “So where is everybody? In a place like this, I wouldn’t think that just you would be able to take care of everything in this ginormous place.”
Katherine flinched at Zoey’s sudden questioning and replied, ” A-all the servants quit because of the shame and they were all afraid of what would happen to them if they continued to work here.” Zoey kept staring at the back of Katherine’s head as they continued to climb the seemingly endless staircase when she asked, ” So why do you continue working here?”
Katherine’s head drooped down when she replied in a somber tone, ” Because I really need the money.” Zoey was slightly surprised at her sudden somberness but she chose not to pry. When the two finally reached the top of the staircase they turned right and walked down a long hallway that was covered in art and statues. They kept going until they reached a white door.
Katherine knocked on the door lightly and said softly, ” Master Fei-.”
“GO AWAY!” A raspy and angry voice yelled out from the closed door before she could finish. Katherine flinched and tried to speak again, ” Master Fei you have a gu-”
“ARE YOU DEAF?! I SAID F.U.C.K OFF, YOU DUMB LITTLE BITCH!” *BANG* He yelled again and it sounded like he had thrown something at the door. Katherine was now quivering uncontrollably and looked as if she was ready to cry. Before Katherine could attempt to try again, Zoey placed her hand on her shoulder and said, ” Alright, you gave it a good shot. I think I should be the one to try next.”
She then moved Katherine to the did and while keeping her hands in her pockets she side kicked the door in. Katherine stood there petrified as it happened so fast. Zoey, whose face showed absolutely no emotion, walked into the room. While in the room, an odor of cigarettes and booze wafted from the door all way down the hall. Katherine covered her nose and mouth with her hand.
She approached the door and peeked in just as Marvin screeched, ” WHAT THE F.U.C.K?! YOU CRAZY BI-.”
“Marvin, you don’t wanna that sentence,” Zoey said sternly and stood confidently and scarily, as she stared down at Marvin who was sitting on the floor. Zoey’s sunglasses only made her more intimidating as she grinned and said, ” Hi, Marvin. How you been?”
“What the? Who the hell are you?!” Marvin asked angrily but with his volume lowered. “Aww, come on, you don’t remember me? Didn’t you attack me for years, like the mangy mutt you are, because your master like didn’t like me?
“Zoey?!” he asked in surprise. “Ding-ding-ding! We have a winner!” Zoey exclaimed in a mocking tone. Zoey then took off her sunglasses and looked at Marvin with a smirk. On top of that, the darkness of the room made her pink eyes look as if they were glowing eerily. Marvin shuddered at a single glance from her and so did Katherine who continued to look through the broken door.
“Well, let’s cut to the chase Marvin. We need to talk!” She exclaimed with a manic smile.
