Candy Crush - Part 6
Added 2021-02-22 16:00:00 +0000 UTCAs time went on the two employees got even closer. Tamiko told Fujiko how her parents were poor when she was growing up, and they had to appreciate everything they had. Which is why she was always so positive, she always looked on the bright side and appreciated the blessing that was the present. Fujiko shared with Tamiko her passion for drawing. Fujiko wasn’t very skilled, but it didn’t stop Tamiko from gushing over her friend's artwork.
In fact Tamiko was gushing over Fujiko all the time over everything. Fujiko felt like maybe Tamiko was envious of her. After all Fujiko was taller and had long beautiful black hair, qualities someone like Tamiko might be jealous of. What Fujiko didn’t know was there was another reason Tamiko had become quick friends with her. “Fujiko, wanna finish these samples while I close up the register?” Tamiko asked.
Never one to pass up candy, without another word Fujiko grabbed the tray and started tossing the treats back while her friend closed up shop. Tamiko was a little distracted though. While Fujiko bounced around the store, straightening up and finishing the rest of the samples, Tamiko watched her friends ample rear sashay with each step, whisking the growing girls skirt up every time she made a larger than normal movement.
Tamiko had been taken with Fujiko from the moment she got this job. Fujiko was beautiful, and it didn’t hurt that her back side was plumper than a beach ball. For the past few months Tamiko had just watched while her fast friend grew even more attractive in her eyes. Tamiko was too nervous to say anything, so she just helped from the side lines, encouraging Fujiko’s raging sweet tooth at all hours of the day.
All the extra encouragement had done a number on Fujiko, who no longer realized the vast amount of sweets she consumed on a daily basis. Fujiko had been a stick of a girl her entire life, but now she was looking like she had always been plump. Her rear had certainly taken the bulk of her excess eating, but it was easy to see she had softened up all over. With Fujiko's allowance to buy whatever clothes she needed, she didn't truly realize how big she was getting. Fujiko did know it, but things were not going to slow down anytime soon.
During just a regular shift at work one day, all of a sudden Mr. Sanji came bursting into the shop. “Fujiko! Fujiko! Great news! We get marketing contract with city’s best firm! Going to really explode business!” Mr. Sanji sounded ecstatic, which he was known for being a cheery guy, but this was on another level.
“That’s great Mr. Sanji, I’m very happy for you.” Fujiko responded politely, but certainly not as excitedly.
“Happy for me?” He questioned. “Happy for you too. As store mascot, you will be on all marketing material. Flyers, billboards, tv commercials, Fujiko front and center. We going to open so many new store with all the business we get.” Now Fujiko’s head was spinning. She had signed up to help this little neighborhood candy story, but now she was going to be the face of a growing candy empire?
Fujiko needed a seat. Finding a stool, Fujiko’s plush rear made contact with the cold wooden surface. She sat there trying to process her thoughts. Before she could start to clearly think though, Tamiko was buzzing about the good news. “Fujiko, what an amazing opportunity! I know you are just going to do great!”
“Fujiko.” Mr. Sanji tried to rally his star employee. “First photoshoot in one week, ok? Mr. Sanji can count on you, yes?”
Fujiko took a deep breath, looking up from where she had been staring at the ground since she had sat down. “Yes.”
