126. Interesting

122. To Do Or Not To Do
(Haruna POV)***"Because I have the feeling that he'd do the same."As Yui said those words, Haruna's overworked brain came to a complete halt."He....."'He would definitely do something if he thought we were in trouble, I know that better than anyone. But would he really do...
121. A Confrontation (2)
(Yui POV)***(Yesterday)*CREAAAK*Yui grimaced at the loud squeak of the door hinge, tiptoeing carefully to minimize all the other noises as much as she possibly could.It was cold, dark, and gloomy, but it was a scene she was more than used to.The house was quite empty, as usual, both of her mothers s...
120. A Confrontation (1)
(Haruna POV)***Haruna dragged her feet as she walked to school, her slumped posture highlighting the lack of sleep last night.There was simply too much on her mind, and she had no choice but to accept the fact that the next few days would be just as stressful.Thankfully, the midterm results will be ...

118. The Diary Series (#3) - Haruna
Entry #31Dear Diary,I'm thinking of joining the cooking club instead, for no particular reason at all.I just thought that the burgers they made for us were delicious, and that it would be fun to learn how to make stuff like that, not to mention all the free food we get to eat and the trips they ...
117. A Crazy Cannonball
Reiji lay in his bed, sinking into his ridiculously soft mattress that he'd now gotten used to.It washed away the tiredness through pure comfort, even when he hadn't fallen asleep yet, because it was hard to resist the urge to turn over since he couldn't put pressure on the wound.*RING*H...
116. A Tantalizing Beating
Reiji couldn't help but grumble on his way to Haruna's house, trying to figure out a way to explain the Keito situation without making her worry.It seemed impossible, unless he lied.But he'd promised both her and himself that he wouldn't do that, causing this mind-numbing dilemma....
115. A Sinner's Voice (2)
Reiji stirred his drink as he considered a few options, not taking any of them too seriously at the moment because there was a bigger problem to consider at the moment."Look, Sir... I really regret what I did, you can know that by the very fact that I came to you for a job even after what you di...

112. The Final Session (2)
"Nomnomnomnomnomnom."While Haruna munched on her cookies, still occasionally glaring at Reiji, who was right next to her on the table, he tried his best to avoid eye contact.".....I was joking?" he mumbled, trying to plead his case."Were you?"".....Well, what else was I s...
111. The Final Session (1)
(Haruna POV)***'....What if I didn't do well?'Haruna tightened her grip on the straps of the backpack she was wearing, occasionally turning towards Reiji, who was walking alongside her.In the past, whenever she felt confident about a test, the scores were still never high enough to be tr...
110. The Midterms (4)
(Haruna POV)***'I knew he was not that good of a guy, but..... what the hell is wrong with him?'Haruna frowned as she stared at the person she once called a friend, who was still standing in the middle of the room like an idiot even after everyone had left.It took a loud reprimand from Kahaw...
109. The Midterms (3)
(Kazama Riku POV)***Anger.That's an emotion I'm not particularly familiar with.In fact, I consider myself to be quite easygoing and casual, someone people can befriend easily.But over the past few weeks, I've been constantly feeling this drive to punch something.No.To punch someone.'...
108. The Midterms (2)
Reiji settled into his new seat, still rattled at the smug look on the teacher's face.Being in the first row was one of the most uncomfortable feelings ever, especially for someone like him, who was used to sitting in the back for both of his lives.'Ugh.... Is he going to stare at me like th...

105. Secrets (2)
(Haruna POV)***As Reiji was tipping over, his balance whisked away from him, Haruna jumped up from her seat in panic, her arms reaching out to try and cushion his fall.She barely managed to grab onto his hoodie, her firm grasp slowing his momentum.But he was simply too heavy, so he still ended up co...
104. Secrets (1)
While Reiji's thoughts continued to churn in his mind, the three of them kept eating the pizza with some light chatter here and there.To his surprise, the two girls seemed to get along much better than he had anticipated.Well, only if you consider the fact that Yui didn't outright ignore Har...
103. Re:Encounter
Reiji plopped his pizza back on his plate, reaching for a tissue to wipe his oily hands clean."You met him today? Where?""Met who?" Haruna asked curiously."That friend of yours, Kazama Riku. We met him a while ago at the mall and..... Well, it wasn't a pleasant meeting," ...
