Ayaka and Yuya stand face to face, the air between them thick with tension. For Ayaka, this isn’t just another workday. She’s been here before—transferred out of her previous department after allegations of harassment against a newcomer. That chapter was supposed to be closed. Buried. Forgotten.
But Yuya has done his homework. He’s dug up the worst details of her past, and now he’s using them like a weapon, pressing her harder with every word. His voice carries that unmistakable edge of someone who believes they hold all the cards.
What he doesn’t expect is Ayaka’s reaction. She doesn’t crumble quietly. She doesn’t accept his judgment in silence. Instead, with tears streaming down her face, she fights back. Her voice shakes, but her words are steady as she lays out the real story—the context he never bothered to learn, the truth behind the rumors he’s so eager to believe.
But Yuya isn’t interested in hearing her side. If anything, her defiance only fuels him. What follows is a punishing response, one that pushes the boundaries of what anyone should have to endure in a professional setting.
