Thud!
"Owie~" Natalia groaned, but she immediately gasped as soon as she realized she had landed on me, "Megan! Are you okay?" Our breasts were pressed to each other, and our faces were inches apart, making Natalia blush a bit.
"Yup… Are you okay, Miss Natalia? Are you hurt somewhere?" I responded.
"N-No…" She stuttered and replied.
Damn, this is the first time I got see Natalia's face up close. And man, her features up close are even better. Her amber eyes are more orange than I thought they were. Her boobs are surpirisingly soft like just like a pillow. I can feel my heart race so fast. Wait… is it mine of hers?
"Okay, phew~" I exhaled. I'm glad she's okay… Wait, why am I so happy to find out she is fine? Agh, never mind. Lets just stan- "Aaghh!" I groand. I felt an agonizing pain in my ankle. I must have injured it when Natalia fell on top of me.

"I was gone for less than five minutes!" Mitch shouted at Natalia. Mitch was patching my ankle with packed ice. I told you I'd switch the bulb myself when I get back!" Mitch had gone to the storage room to find a taller stand to stand on, and she had explicitly told Natalia to wait because Natalia was prone to accidents. It turned out she was right, and unfortunately, I was there to take her place.
"I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY! I'M SORRY!" Natalia repeatedly apologized on her knees, bowing her head to me. I found it quite amusing seeing her like this. "I'm so sorry I didn't listen to you. I promise it won't happen again! Sob~ Sob~"
"Ugh! Stop crying, you big baby! And don't apologize to me; apologize to Megan!" I've never seen Mitch this furios, it is a bit scary to see her like this.
"It's okay, Miss Mitch, it was only an accident. Miss Natalia wasn't at fault." I chimed in, trying to be understanding even though I am pissed myself that I got injured.
"Still! If it weren't for this stubborn crybaby, this would have happened!" Mitch angrily said, putting pressure on my injury and making me groan a little. Mitch immediately apologizes after realizing what she has done, before continuing. "Nat, please listen to me now and then! I know you don't want to bother anyone, but asking for help is okay from time to time! And because of your stubbornness, you have injured our newest recruit!"
Natalia listened to those words wholeheartedly. She then walked up to me and held both my hands tight. "Megan, I am truly sorry for my idiocy. I have caused you harm. To make it up to you, I'll do anything you asked me to do, so please don't quit!"
I smiled again. "Miss Natalia, I wouldn't go that far. you are making it like it's a big deal," I jokingly said
"IT IS A BIG DEAL!" Both Mitch and Natalia said in unison.
Their personalities are enough to make me smile for real this time. "All right, alright! I could ask for anything, huh?" I sat in silence, trying to think of anything for Natalia to do for me. I can't just ask for her to do the deed with me so I could be done with all this suffering. I have tried before, and it is never that easy. What should I ask for?
While I thought of something, Mitch went back to treating my injury, wrapping it with bandages. While Natalia stared at me, waiting breathlessly. Anticipating what I would ask her to do. He~he Cute.
"Miss Natalia, there is no need for you to be nervous. I'm not going to ask you something heavy; I won't go that far," I assured her. Making Natalia slightly less anxious. Anything huh…
After contemplating for a while, I may have thought of something.g "Then how about this?" I started, and Natalia leaned in to hear what I had in mind for her. "Could you drive me home?" I asked.
"E-Eh?" Natalia's eyes widened in surprise, she must not have anticipated that I would ask something so simple as to drive me home. That is part of my plan.
"Is that a no? I mean, having a sprain will be a problem going home. And I don't have a car and all. So~ could you please drive me home?" I asked politely.
"Yes!. ah eh I mean yes to I can drive you home!" Natalia replied sheepishly.
"Alrighty then, I have patched your injury, Meggy. Be careful not to hit in on something, okay?" Mitch Said.
"Yes, Understood Miss Mitch" I greatfully said.
"There is no need to thank me, Meggy. Now, Nat, go drive Meggy home," Mitch ordered Natalia to help me walk to her car. Now that I'm standing, it is hard to walk with one foot. How bothersome. "Oh, and also, Meggy, I'll give you a one-week leave until your leg heals, okay?" Mitch added.
"I appreciate it, Miss Mitch. I'll try to heal fast so I can get back here," I replied.
"There is no need to rush; just stay at home and don't move your leg too much. Contact us if you need anything, okay?"
"Of course! Now, if you'll excuse me. Miss Natalia, shall we?" I grabbed Natalia's shoulder to help me balance myself to wal— err, hop on one foot.
I said my goodbyes to Mitch and left the daycare early because of my injury. On the bright side, I won't need to take care of the children.
When we got to Natalia's car, she carefully helped me get inside. But while opening the door, she inadvertently hit my ankle. I held every single will I have not swearing on her face. The pain was so terrible I almost cried. She then once again bowed her head and apologized repeatedly. I just let it slide and tried to be understanding.
After that she tried openning the door carefully this time and helped me get inside succesfully. Thank God.
And so Natalia drove me home.
While inside the car, I could tell that Natalia was very anxious and kept glancing at my ankle. She must feel really bad for causing me inconvenience. Sigh.
She needs reassurance. "Miss Natalia, no need to feel bad. It was all an accident. It happens," I said, but unlikely to happen twice in the same day.
"Eh? Ah, b-but I caused you trouble, and because of my clumsiness, you'll have to stay at home for a while. I do not think just driving you home is enough. At least, um… let me make you dinner or something?" Natalia was filled with remorse as she insisted on helping more.
"But Miss Natalia, driving me home is plenty enough. No need to fret more about it."
Natalia let out an anxious groan. "Are you really sure?"
"Yes!" I answered enthusiastically. In the end, I managed to make Natalia submit and not worry too much. The rest of the drive home was quiet, I guided Natalia to my house. Eventually, we got there.
