Rika had chosen the omega hygiene store because she knew most alphas would not follow her inside, a stark reminder of the societal discrimination she faced.
Feeling the weight of societal expectations, most people valued how they were perceived and, thus, adhered to the established norms.
As expected, the manager was also such a person, and she looked uncomfortable at the thought of heading inside this store.
So, she called for an omega to accompany Rika inside the store.
The omega she called for, Rika, was a little taller and curvier than her. She also had a shy and innocent look, which looked like a mask to Rika.
Somehow, she could tell this omega was faking her personality and decided she did not want to bother becoming friends.
"Go in and have fun! My dear! Please take care of Rika for us. She is a VIP guest at our hotel, and we cannot afford to have anything happen to her."
