"Well....you see, Mr. Richton. I don't think you quite understand the REAL reason why I was late. After my piece of .." Ai stopped, she could tell by the look on her boss's face that he was not amused one bit, and also wasn't buying her sharp witted talk. " Keep going, remember. You have my spirit." a faint, almost silver-tongued voice whispered from inside her head.
"As I was saying, after not being able to get my car to start at all, I had to walk myself to the bus stop. Comes to find out, that for some odd reason, the buses were off schedule. So after losing patience and running out of time, I deiced to walk my way to, well this lovely place that I am so lucky to call work!" She smiled, trying to pass of a true genuine "I love my job" smile. All in all, she didn't hate her job. It was at a small music and book store called 'Singin, Swingin, Stories', yeah the name was a tad lame but she really didn't mind the job. Good hours, good pay, plus it was a place where music was being played all the time and she loved that. But there were times when she was so close to just shouting "suck it" and walking out the door. However she did NOT want to get fired. " Look at the clock...remember the date..." the voice whispered again. Without seeming suspicious, Ai's eyes gave a quick glance at the clock. It was a little before an hour after her shift began, sighing her eyes wandered back to Mr. Richton, who had began to give her the speech of being 'unreliable'. Or as Ai called it the ' Your fired!' speech.
Suddenly, her dull gold eyes became a tad bit brighter. "Excuse me..Mr. Richton..I don't mean to be rude but, I do believe today is the 27th of October. If I remember correctly, isn't today the beginning of daylights savings time, and since the old saying goes, Spring ahead. Fall behind,then I do think the right time is 6:30pm instead of 7:30pm. And since my shift starts 6:45pm until closing at 10:30 pm. I believe I'm not late!" Her smile grew big, when her boss grumbled and nodded with a bit of resentment then left her to prep for her shift she couldn't help but give herself a pat on the back. Once again she had proved that her animal was truly the fox, and she had more then a lot of fox in her. This wasn't the first time that Ai managed to talk her way out of some trouble, and she had to admit that was a trait she liked a lot!
After grabbing her black bandanna and apron tying them around her 'fox parts'. Having the spirit animal fox made things a bit difficult sometimes. When the spirit deiced to let her be its host instead of being her companion she magically grew a pair of fox eyes,ears and a nice bushy fox tail. This scared a lot of people, including customers. So to make sure she got and kept the job she hid away her fox traits right before every shift and began her work.
