Standing before was the figure of Tsubakihara Naoto, who was holding the door of the club with one of her hands and staring at with an intense look. With a nod and tensed eyebrows, her lips moved, "Yeah… who the hell do you think you are?!!"
Looking at her agitation, I decided to ask her, "What do you see as?"
Her eyes widened for an instance as she took a slight pause and the words ca out of her mouth were, "Huh?"
Judging by her reaction, I knew that asking that wasn't a good move. To improvise it and play it off, I answered in my usual blunt tone, "To answer you, I'm your underclassn. That's it."
Narrowing her eyes, a look of distaste washed on her face as she shot back, "Then what gives you the right to tell those things that day?"
I sighed and looked at her with an annoyed expression. Narrowing my eyes, I said in a low tone, "Senpai… if you're going on about the sa bullshit, then…"
She looked at with eyes, which clearly showed that it hurt her, as she slowly and hesitantly repeated the word, "Bullshit?"
"Yes!" I nodded and her eyes shifted away from and she looked down, and between her light breaths, she muttered the words, "You think everything you said…"
Realising that I was again following the sa route and hurting her, I cleared my throat as she turned up to look at and I continued in a soft tone, "Senpai… tell honestly… did everything I said that day was useless?"
I looked at her with as much politeness as I could muster up and added, "Did none of them make sense?"
Looking at each other for a few monts, she bit her lips and said in a hesitant tone, "No… but you could've said them a bit politely!"
She stared at with her dark eyes, which looked darker than usual as she was standing in the opposite direction of the light source, and nodded, "Everything you said was true… but still!"
Putting my hands in my pockets, I said in a tone filled with confidence, "Listen… I don't regret any of the words I said. You needed soone to beat so sense into you."
She stared at with a sharp look as she said in a confused tone, "Beat sense? You think you can beat ?"
Assuming she took my words in another sense, I replied with, "Depends what you're talking about."
Her sharp stare was still on , as I smiled awkwardly and continued, "If it's kendo, then of course I stand no chance."
Sowhat inaudibly, she said with a pout on her face, "I still haven't forgiven you for that though!"
There was a mont of silence between us, as her voice rose again, "You know how hurt I was!?" Looking at with clear annoyance in her eyes, she continued, "A stranger like you who didn't even know anything in the first place…"
"Gave a lecture… made cry!" She covered her face with her palm as the last words escaped her lips, as I could tell the shaky tone that she was embarrassed.
"Oh my god! I can't cry because an underclassman scolded ." She said while doing one of those muffled screams out of frustration.
"Please… forget that!!! Pretend you never saw that!" She paced towards with an intimidating look, but stopped midway and asked in a confused tone, "What?! Why are you staring at like that?"
As for the last few minutes, I said nothing except to keep staring at her. With a chuckle and averting my eyes from her, K said, "Nothing, you just seem cute when you're talking quickly."
Her eyes widening up, and her lips twitched in embarrassnt as her cheeks flushed up in a red tint while she yelped, "Wha… Idiot! Idiot!"
"Ooof! what the heck? I just complinted you!" I tried to defend myself, but she just gave a sharp look as her hair flew freely behind her. "Shut up! I don't need your complints."
"Hai Hai!" I nodded without saying anything further, but it seed like she had more to say as she continued, "But…"
"But…?"
Shifting her glances at , and then averting them the next instance, she said in a low voice and wasn't really audible, "Thank you…"
"Huh?" I tilted my head in confusion as the only words I could make sense of were 'Thank you'.
Staring back at , she took a deep breath and, with a louder voice this ti, she said, "Thanks… for like… helping a bit!"
Looking at her, I couldn't tell if she was actually grateful or if she was pissed at . Girls are strange in this sense as they sotis send really crazy mixed signals. Approaching a safe mode of reply, I just gave her a nod, "I uh… welco?"
"I really needed that harsh treatnt. I'm glad you didn't try to sugarcoat ." She said while keeping her hands behind her, and I replied instantly, "The amount of bitterness you have… you definitely need a sugar coat."
Understanding the pun intended, she gave a sarcastic roll of eyes, "Haha… really funny."
"Oh, you didn't like it? Let tell you otherwise…" I said as she looked at in confusion, "Huh?"
Never had I ever imagined that I would use cheesy pickup lines, but there I was, with a serious look on my face as I uttered absolutely bullshit, "You're already quite sweet to begin with…"
Sighing in disappointnt, she gave one of those 'seriously?' looked and said, "I can't believe you're this smooth being my underclassman."
"Ehe…" I was feeling quite embarrassed as an awkward smile ford on my face.
After that awkward exchange between us, she didn't seem to mind it much, as it looked like she was invested in sothing else. She again looked at , and in a soft voice she said, "Thank you again… I…"
