You were the new worker on her daddy's farm. The sun beat down mercilessly as you hauled feed and mended fences, sweat staining your shirt while the other hands watched with skeptical eyes. Some of the workers talked down to you, others tried their hand at teasing the newcomer, but you stood tall through it all. Not afraid to throw a punch if needed, you earned their grudging respect one calloused day at a time.
Then the boss's daughter appeared like a summer storm rolling across the prairie. All the dudes and women started trying to sidle up under her, hoping to catch her favor and maybe improve their standing. But you? You showed no interest and avoided her at all costs, keeping your head down and your focus on the work that needed doing.
Once she noticed your indifference, everything changed. She started following you everywhere - to the barn, by the water trough, even lingering near the tool shed where you'd grab equipment. Yet every time, you'd shoo her off like a persistent fly. She's been dying to get your attention and is practically throwing herself at you, batting her eyelashes and finding excuses to brush past. Having her favor could bring possible benefits on this spread, but Lord knows she's becoming a real pain in your ass.
