I was standing outside the library entrance. I could see there were a few students inside the library, but the corridor outside was really quiet as school hours ended.
I was reminiscing about my exchange with Gaisen regarding the Kizhashi matter. He seed to be really carefree about this. Even when I was manipulating him, Tsūn was more worried than him. It makes little sense, unless Gaisen already has resolved this issue.
Also, when I said about Kizhashi cheating on him, he seed to be sad about it but it seed forced to . Either I'm overthinking things or their relationship isn't working out between them.
Maybe this whole incident was planned by Kizhashi and Haruka as a getaway to break up with their respective partners. This explains why Haruka invited Kizhashi even though he knew Gaisen would probably be busy.
But like, doesn't that make Kizhashi and Haruka pretty terrible people? I know Uyeno and her group is a typical bitch despite that, cheating on your partner isn't justified.
Then again, I know little about any person involved in this incident so I would rather not make wild speculations. I don't know why I'm wasting my ti thinking about this when this doesn't even concern .
"So you ca after all, huh?" The subtle voice of Reina pulled out of my wild imagination.
"Yeah" I turned my head towards her and looked at her glaring at . She was looking forward to this eting between us.
"Anyway, let's go." I said as I walked towards the stairs beside the library.
"Wait, are we not going to talk in the library?" She asked.
"No." I answered her clearly.
"Then… Why the hell did you even call here in the first place?" I could tell that she was irritated. I should really stop pushing her buttons.
"I wanted us to be alone." I looked into her eyes to make my statent seem more authentic.
"Wha… I… you could've just told to wait inside the class." She was flustered as she started speaking.
"Yes, that would've worked too." I nodded.
"Hey!? Don't give that." She glared at with a sharp tone.
"Nevermind, you're following , anyway. So let's just continue." I said, as we were already out of the school building and were now heading for the main gate.
"Ugh! I hate you… why can't you do sothing like a normal person for once." She sighed with much disappointnt in her voice.
"Because… I'm not normal." I replied with a chuckle.
"So tell now!" She stared at with avidity in her eyes.
"Chill your horses, I'm coming to the point." I said and paused montarily. "Where was I last ti?"
"You said I had an inferiority complex against Koi-san" Her voice was way too restless. It was actually odd seeing her like this.
"Ah yeah… so you wanted to know why I say sothing like that?" I narrowed my eyes on her.
"Of course, Yes!" She shook her head up and down in affirmation.
"The fact that you're so desperate to know about these proves that my speculation was indeed correct." I chuckled.
"Wait… I….I never said it's correct." She averted her eyes from , but her body language gave it away way too easily that she was lying.
"I wasn't asking." I said in a cold tone.
"Eh!?" Looks like my tone caught her off guard.
"So… you called yourself a weed, right?" I was trying to trigger her.
"Ahh… please don't remind about that. It was really embarrassing." She shook her head and her cheeks were slightly tinted red.
"I'm sure, that by flower you were referring to Kizhashi-san, weren't you?" I continued as I looked at her.
"I… wasn't." Even her voice wasn't with her anymore.
"At so point you did, Don't lie to ." I said.
"I don't know." She replied vaguely, or rather in a way because she doesn't want to talk about it.
"I'm pretty sure that the triple date you went on with Kizhashi, you must have felt like a weed again, didn't you? Among all of them couples… those pretty girls… you're the unwanted one." I started my attack on her.
"No…" She tried to deny my claim but before she could say anything, I continued.
"You were just a replacent for Gaisen-kun." As those words left my mouth, there was a sudden change in her expression. It was more ferocious than before.
"Shut the fuck up!" She flipped off, and sohow this ti, she really ant it.
"See, if you weren't not ready to face the truth, then you shouldn't have asked about this in the first place." I just said what I was thinking at that point.
"You don't know what you're talking about… don't pretend like you know ." She yelled at in a high pitched voice.
"I'm just trying to help you." I looked at her in a confused way and showed her my palm as a gesture for her to stop.
"I didn't ask for your help! Did I!?" She continued.
"Calm down, Reina-san. You're not the type to lose your cool. Calm down for a bit." Her voice was getting us so looks from people around us. She didn't look at , neither did she utter another word.
The walk continued in silence for so ti before she broke the silence. "I'm sorry, if I'm overreacting." She said in a low voice.
"Listen, I don't know what has triggered your inferiority complex. It may, or may not be Kizhashi's presence… maybe it's sothing that happened in the past…" I was trying not to make her pissed off with my words.
"I don't want to talk about it. Can you just leave this matter?" She interrupted midway and looked into my eyes. Her tone and her expression were more serious than usual.
"Listen, I will tell you one thing." I decided to leave that matter, but I had sothing in my mind.
"Mhm?" She was still staring at . We were basically standing near the place from where both of us will head in our own directions.
"I have told you before and I will tell you again, you're good just the way you are. I love the Reina-san I see everyday. You may be a bit flawed, but that's just a part of you." I gave her a light smile.
"It's the sa thing, again and again. Everyone says the sa fucking thing!" She was again irritated.
"No matter how many tis you fall, I will always pick you up. No matter what happens." I continued.
"I have a lot of people to pick up if I ever fall. I don't need your support. Mind your own business." She looked at with her plain dark eyes and said those words to .
"If you want, you can stop talking with . But you'll always be one of those people I really cared for." I sighed.
"Sh...shu...shut up! Leave alone!" She was flustered by my words.
"I can stray away from you if you want, but I won't ever leave your side." I also stared into her eyes, but she averted it as those words my mouth.
"I… uh… I… um… Bye!" I could look at the colour of her cheeks getting redder as she gave one last glare and ran in her direction.
