My Lady and I

A light-hearted romantic comedy between a young female boss and her older female assistant in a realistically reconstructed world of the defense industry based on the authentic experiences of the author. Plot Synopsis: 19yo Hina inherits a mega-corporation, but she is a billionaire underdog facing dauntingly massive pressure to succeed. Her sidekick, Sin, is an older and experienced woman who is a jack of all trades in the business world with a natural talent for improvising and working behind the scenes to make the clockwork tick. To repay her debt of gratitude to Hina’s late father who brought her under his wings and gave her a career in the defense industry, she dedicates herself to helping Hina and protecting her at all costs. The irresistible charm of Hina slowly starts to move Sin’s heart but she is a woman incapable of loving and being loved. However, Hina is an unpredictable force of nature and her nonchalant shower of affection makes it hard for Sin to juggle her ever-so-confusing feelings and professional commitment. The family feud within Hina’s family, power struggles in the company to oust the young heiress, and political landmines Sin needs to navigate with her young new boss make her life and career increasingly more precarious as time goes by.

Opening

Yui froze on the spot as Hina introduced herself as my girlfriend. To be honest my heart skipped a bit with shock as well.

What is she plotting now?

Yui looked at Hina and then looked at my hand where our ring was supposed to be.

"I see"

Although I vowed to never see her or speak to her again, I felt a knot in my throat as the words I wanted to say were not coming out.

I wanted to tell her I took off the ring because I wanted to forget about her.

I took off the ring because I didn't want her in my life in any form or shape.

What's the point of telling her any of that now?

Yet I felt like I should tell her.

I would have been okay with her hating me or holding a grudge against me for never contacting her again, and not keeping a single promise I made.

But I didn't want her to think I took off the ring because I got into a relationship with another girl.

What is Hina even thinking?
