I walk towards my classroom in pain and sit down on my seat all bruised up. A few students come in talking to each other, more students come inside the classroom and sit down on their seats. Yua enters and looks at me feeling angry then notices my bruises, she quickly runs up to me and touches my face. "What happened to you, who did this to you!?" She asked seriously as she clenched her teeth. I grab my phone and go to my translating app, "I got this when I was outside in the field, I tripped and went rolling down into a few bushes." She held onto my hand, "your lying to me, if you fell into a bush then you'd have cuts not bruises. Now tell me the truth before I make you." Uzami entered the classroom, "oh hey guys," he walked towards us, "man that lunch period went by really fast right Itsuk—,"
Uzami saw my face and all my bruises, I quickly signaled him to lie as Yua stared at him with dark cold eyes. Uzami starts to smile, "what happened to you?" God damn it Uzami you had one job and you couldn't do it. Yua stares at me again waiting to hear my answer. The door slides open and Mrs. Hyomi appears, "alright class settle down, everyone to their seats now!" Yua and Uzami went to sit down on their seats. All through class Yua stared at my bruises and clenched her fist, when the period was over I stood up to go use the bathroom but Yua followed behind me. After every period we only get 10 minutes till the next class begins, I walk near the men's room when Yua slams me onto the wall, I'm a bit bigger than her so I was surprised when she did that.
"You're going to tell me who did that to you right now!" She said as I looked away from her, "why won't you tell me? What are you hiding from me?" I can't possibly tell her about everything that has happened. If I did then she would go crazy and kill them, I need to come up with an excuse so good that it sounds true. I get out my phone now at 30 percent and go to the translating app, "I went to Fumino during lunch period and she started teaching me some martial arts, things got out of hand and she ended up beating me." Yua smiled at me then pressed onto my arm really hard, "why would you hang out with another girl during lunch when you have me baka!?" This was the best excuse I could have made, I gave a small laugh, "now then I need to give you a punishment, even if you're badly injured right now, it doesn't mean you should be hanging out with other girls."
I quickly type then press text to voice, "why? Do you like me or something?" Yua instantly turned red then punched me straight in the face as I fell to the ground. This is the only way for her to not question me, I stand up and hear the bell ring. "We have to go now," she said looking away from me, we walked back to the classroom but while walking she said, "I don't like you or anything so don't question me baka." "Right, right," I replied as we made it to the classroom. I slid the door and we went inside, the rest of my class periods went well and it was finale time to leave. I quickly pack up and go to the door when Akuhei slides it for me on the other side. "Have you decided yet?" He asked as I looked to the ground then back to his face. "Not yet," I shove him out of the way.
I walked away from him but looked back for a second and saw him texting someone, who could that be? I walked to the entrance of the school when I heard, "Hey Itsuki can you help me for a minute?" Icho asked me as I turned around and saw her emotionless face. I nod my head slowly, "I just need you to carry some boxes for me," she said, I nod again, "alright then just follow me," she walks an opposite direction and I follow her to 3 boxes filled with ingredients on the ground.
I carried the boxes all the way into the room she told me, Icho slid the door revealing a big room, it was the cooking club. I looked at her for a moment confused when I felt someone push me from behind. I fell to the floor as the boxes filled with food ingredients fell all over me. I was sticky and covered with food, I smelled weird. Out of nowhere 6 girls came out of nowhere and circled around me as they looked disgusted. I looked at Icho as she still kept her emotionless face, I quickly got out my phone but a girl took it. I reach out for it and point at my neck.
Icho noticed and looked at the girl, then nodded her head. The girl gave it back to me, I went to the translation app, "What is this? Why did you drag me out here only to get me messy!?" One girl then yelled, "you're in the cooking club right now, what do you think!?" "Yeah it's because of you we're losing our funding!" "You scumbag!" "Why don't you just die already," each girl yelled at me. I typed then looked at Icho, "Icho why? I thought we had something special, why are you doing this?" She stared into my eyes, "I'm trying to join the cooking club to make delicious snacks for you but the girls said that since I know you I'd have to lure you here to be in."
"Did they not tell you why they wanted you to drag me in here?" My phone said out loud as the girls surrounding me quickly started to look at Icho, "no why?" She asked without any emotion. "They want me to date Fumino and I'm refusing to so principal Hina is trying to destroy each club by cutting their funding or closing it down." My phone said as the same girl took my phone again. I stand up furiously, I am sick and tired of this shit, if I can't get the cure by just talking or asking then I'll have to do it by force. I need my phone though, "why does Principle Hina want you to date Fumino in the first place? This seems really weird." She said confused. I couldn't respond so I just stood there in silence as I looked at the girl holding my phone, she started to back away.
I walked forward but by bit till she reached the kitchen counter, I pulled out my hand demanding her to give me my phone back. "I'm sorry Hiro, I didn't know," she said without any emotion. "Anyway! We need you to hurry up and date her!" "Yeah you asshole," "go screw yourselves and die," "just date her and all of this can be over." "You're causing too much trouble," "if this club gets shut down I'm calling my father on you!" I don't pay attention to what the other girls are saying I have my eyes dead locked in the girl that took my phone.
"You want your phone right? Then date Fumino!" she gave a small smile but I could tell that inside she felt scared that I was cornering her. "Hiro I don't know what's happening but whatever you do, don't date Fumino, date me." She said without hesitation, all the other girls started to stare at her, "what the hell are you saying! You want to join the club right!?" They all yelled at her as she stood there in silence. "Hiro date Fumino so I can make you tasty snacks," she said, You idiot if I date her then I won't be able to talk to you anymore! I can't talk to any girl, I mean I don't talk to many but still, my freedom will get taken from me! I have to end this now! I need my phone. I was pissed off and my face showed it, I looked at the girl holding my phone and saw her shivering, I walked forward really fast trying to grab my phone as she screamed. I felt my gut start to burn as I looked down and saw a knife sticking out, the girl holding my phone had taken a knife from the cutlery and stabbed me. I fall to the ground as the other girls are horrified and start to scream. "What did you do!" "I don't know it looked like he was attacking me so I just!" As my blood was flowing out of my body while I was in pain, the last 3 things I saw were the metal ball flying, the girls screaming, and Icho's sad face as I closed my eyes.
