Story 1: Submissive

Chapter 6:

"subGrrl! Wake up!" Lisianski shouted.

I pushed out through the door of the cage and fell to the floor writhing in agony. My limbs did not want to straighten out again.

"Hurry up! You'll miss your bus and be late for work!"

I crawled as fast as I could to the shower.

I was surprised I was able to run fast enough to catch the bus and I flopped down in a seat next to an older woman, sighing, a boxed protein shake in my hand.

"Mondays!" the woman smiled.

"Hmm," I responded and looked out a window on the other side of the bus.

"Wow! You are rude, subGrrl," Lisianski said.

I ignored her and began to pick at a fingernail.

"Hellooo! subGrrl! Aren't you going to talk to me?"

I tried my hardest to scream "Go away!" to Lisianski in my mind.

"I can't hear you, subGrrl!" Lisianski taunted. "You need to use your voice! Hey! Hey!"

"Shut up!" I whispered as quietly as I could.

"Hey! subGrrl! Louder! I can't heeeaar you!"

"Shut up!" I said a little louder.

"Well..." the older woman sitting next to me huffed and sat up straighter.

I glanced up to see her glaring down at me. Embarrassed, I tried to fold myself more deeply within my coat like a turtle. Lisianski was laughing.
