Chapter 22: The Guessing Game

Recently, Takagi-san has taken up the opportunity to have new and clever ways to interact with Nishikata at school. Obviously, their interactions are always wholesome however it's starting to become futile by a slight portion. With the start of their afternoon break, the Teasing Master decides to tease him once more without hesitation and embarrassment.

"Alright. That's all for today. Class dismissed." The subject teacher exits the door heading directly to his next class. 

"Yo, Nishikata. Wanna grab some snacks with us while there's still time?" Kimura asked in a delightful voice.

"No I'm good. You guys can go on ahead. I'll meet you in the next class instead." Nishikata responds back with absolute denial.

"Ok then. If you say so."

The rest of Nishikata's friends leave as he packs up his things for the next the class session.

"Hm....it's been awhile since Takagi-san hasn't teased me today. She might be taking it easy for me or better yet, she's trying to prepare something that will be the end of me." He said to himself in his thoughts. Always keeping track of  the times she's teased him everyday.

"Hey~."

"Tch, that's Takagi-san's voice and I know it. Whatever she's trying to plan it's not gonna work on me this time." His pride as fortified prevention and caution towards her skillful teasing. However, he would bluntly blush at her next phases of words.

"Nishikata-senpai." She whispers in her ear. Sending goosebumps towards her crush.

Nishikata overreacts at her gesture. Causing him to have red cheeks and a fast heart beat.

"I-I told you not to say that name to me. It's embarrassing." Nishikata could still not handle the pressure Takagi-san brings to him.

"Why not? There's no one around us to hear that you're my senpai." Another teasing attack hits Nishikata as he blushes even more at her sentences.

"Who said you were my senpai?" He asked shyly.

"Hm.. who knows."

"Sigh... Of course she would say that. I got ridiculed again by my own name. She's probably mind-tricking me just to make an expression for her entertainment." 

"Or maybe It's a force of habit."

"She heard me?  I should stop this habit as well. Who knows what she will do if  she invades my ideas and future plans of me finally teasing-"

Takagi-san Interrupts him by eating a Manju in her hands. Nishikata looks at the precious snack she's holding. Seeking hunger at each bite she takes. His stomach growls as Takagi-san stops eating her snack.

"You want some?"

"N-no..." His stomach growls once more to deny his desperation.

"Well it seems like you're lying." She giggles as Nishikata gets more embarrassed, Thankfully for him, no one is watching them interact with each other once more.

At the midst of desperation, Nishikata decides to have another contest with Takagi-san.

"Let's have another contest." He smirks as Takagi-san accepts.

"What kind of contest do you want to play?"

"Hm...How about the guessing game?"

A few days ago

Nishikata was watching his tv late at night. Feeling restless, he continued to watch some shows for ideas that would finally put a end of his teasing from the Teasing Master. Until he stumbled upon a show that was perfect.
