Yuka opened a door and saw Yukihira who was shocked to see her. " Yuka." he said. " It has been a while, why do you look like that?" he asked before checking the papers that he was holding.
" Sensei..." Yuka panted and tightened her fists. " I'm going to see the elementary school principal. I don't want everyone to become sacrifices anymore." she exclaimed loudly and was about to leave until the teacher caught her wrist to stop her.
" And then what? You can't do that, knowing the elementary school principal's way of thinking, you wouldn't be able to go back to the life you're experiencing now." Yukihira said with a serious face.
" But I don't want to be useless anymore... I'm going-" Yuka stubbornly stated making the teacher shook his head even more.
" You really can't, Yuka... with rumors about you getting engaged that old man's side has been in chaos." Yukihira glanced at her before shrugging his shoulders a bit. " They are thinking that we're planning to do something and they've put their guards up. I couldn't care less about the person you truly like." he said without thinking twice.
Yuka felt hurt a little as she clutched her chest as she listened to the teacher. " But if you go now, there will be a heavier punishment towards you. " Yukihira stated bt Yuka looked at the teacher's face until Yukihira looked at her.
" But the person I like is Sensei." Yuka confessed bluntly. " I don't have any feelings for Shiki-senpai... I've always liked you, Sensei."
Yukihira's eyes widened in surprise because of Yuka's sudden confession. " Ah, I see. I'm sorry, I wasn't thinking. I'm sorry." Yukihira apologized and patted Yuka on the head before turning his back toward her as he pops out a piece of cigarette.
Yuka stared at Yukihira's back without even feeling the tears that started to flow down her cheeks. She was comforted but she knew that her feelings weren't accepted.
The door behind Yukihira creaked open, as he turned around Yuka was no longer there. " Yuka..." he mumbled.
Yuka found her way to meet Narumi who didn't want to see her. " Naru..." Yuka called out but Narumi turned away from her.
" You were planning on going back to the elementary school principal, I heard from your annoying friend and the other." Narumi started and pointed out that it was Mina who told him first-hand and Kaoru mentioned it to him as well.
" Get over it! Just because of that attitude of yours our efforts will be wasted. You wanted to be treated fairly but you were just giving us troubles." Narumi looked at Yuka with brows furrowed.
" Hey--" Yuka was cut off. " Everyone around you is fighting, do you want to give up like that?" the younger guy hissed. " You still have to be protected in the end but if you really don't appreciate that then you have to show us that you're stronger than that!"
Yuka realized that she really didn't dare to stand against the principal but she didn't want to give everyone a hard time anymore. She knew that they're suffering without her knowing.
" Naru... I'm really sorry." Yuka held Narumi's wrist. " Thank you."
Kaoru, Shiki, and Mina saw the two. Yuka felt comforted by the fact that she's not alone. She found people would help her no matter what happens so she wouldn't run away from the problem anymore.
In the end, Yuka came to the elementary principal. He sat on a chair while gazing outside the window. " The fact that you opposed coming to our side but here you are, it's very shocking." he gave a small smirk seeing Yuka before him.
" I think that giving my students and allowing them more freedom isn't that bad." the ESP commented. Luna on the other hand was eavesdropping behind the door completely annoyed with Yuka once again.
-" You know, I received a hint from Himemiya a few days ago and I believe that it's great." the man clasped his hands together while looking at Yuka. " Becoming one with the most important person. Isn't this a great solution for the both of us?"
Yuka felt chills run down her body, feeling creeped out. " If you become my wife, I will promise to be kinder to those around you." he smiled before crossing his arms together. " You don't have to give me your answer right away... either way, you have no choice but to say yes later on."
" What-... both of us getting married?! No way, it's impossible!" Yuka exclaimed towards the elementary principal's absurd proposal. Yuka was disgusted by the man.
" Oh, but if it's me... it is possible." the man stood up from his chair, now towering over Yuka. " I believe that I should show you how my alice works... You see, Yuka you really value those who are around you to the point wherein the end you have to leave them." he caressed Yuka's cheek.
" Ever since I saw you, it has been decided that you will never leave this academy." the elementary school principal announced. Yuka slapped his hand away before storming out of the building while harshly wiping her tainted cheek.
The principal's last words lingered through her head. 'This is something that you can never tell anyone about.' he said. She suddenly tripped and fell to the ground. An overhead window opened coincidentally Yukihira was looking out of the window and saw Yuka.
" Yuka? Are you alright?" he asked seeing that the girl was on the ground. Yuka didn't want to make everyone worry about her and decided to face the problem head-on.
Yuka gave the teacher a bright smile. " I'm okay, I just tripped." she laughed at herself. " You can do this, Yuka. Let's be strong enough to face this trial." she mumbled to herself before walking away. She turned back for the last time to see Yukihira looking at her worriedly but she gave him a strong smile.
