Shinjiro's Point of View

WHEN lunchtime came, Ayanokouji jumped to his feet and headed toward the cafeteria with Kushida. Naturally, I got up and sat in the seat in front of me since Ayanokouji left his seat.

I remember him saying, 'I have to go to the cafeteria with Kushida to do some things. And afterwards, I'm going to the teacher faculty to ask Hoshinomiya-sensei or Mashima-sensei something regarding test points and private points.'

Already knowing what it was about... well with the cafeteria at least, I sent him 20,000 private points. Although he said he wasn't going to ask for points, he expressed his gratitude.

"If they're doing that thing, then I have no business in it." I said to myself.

"What thing?"

"Behind the stairca- Oh! I forgot you exist, my princess." I pretended to be surprised as I turned to Horikita. She elegantly pulled out her lunch and her bottle. 

"I forgot you exist as well, my peasant. Which is why I asked, 'what thing', as I could've sworn it could've been a ghost."

"Huh, I see. We're playing the 'mean girl' today, huh? ...Who am I kidding, that's every day."

"You're kidding nobody. I don't think I'm being mean, just true to myself."

"So... mean."

"That's correct."

"Damn you!"

The woman took the cap of her bottle and began drinking. Surprisingly, some of the drink was dripping toward her chin.

"Ah~... Like that~ Don't sto-"

"Do you wish death?"

"Depends. Is the one taking me away you? If so, I'll let you take me away as long as I have eye candy along the way."

"I suppose heaven can have you instead."

"I'm not into nuns, that's not my fetish. Shinigami are the ones that get me in the mood. With your attitude and death glares, you're definitely a Shinigami. No wonder you always seem to turn on my buttons."

"I'm afraid it's come to this..."

"You're letting me hit!?"

"No-"

"No! Not like in a sexual way? I mean as in actually hitting you! Like a swift jab to the face!"

"Does that make it any better, Shinjiro-kun?"

"I mean? If you don't want to have sex with me, then yeah-"

She slowly reached for her pockets and took out the forbidden pocket.

'Alright, time to Insert those three iconic sound effects and zoom in effects used in anime.'

'Swish-'

'Swish-'

'Swish!'

"A compass!?" I yelled dramatically. 

"Shut up, thirsty monkey! I'm tryna talk about the Nintendo Direct that just premiered."

Huh? Ike? I'm the thirst monkey? Fine, I'll lower it down.

"A compass!?" I said calmly.

"... You cannot be a real person."

That's right, Horikita. I was never real. Heh, heh, heh.... ha.... damn.

"Anywho, Anyway, Anyhow, Anywhere, Anywhen, and Anywhat. Do not do murder on this innocent soul. That will be... a lot of charges placed upon you. 'Kaaaaay~? 'Kaaaaay."

"If you stop annoying me, then I'll consider it." She suggested.

"How about instead of consider, it's I'll stop. That works, right? Please say yes."

She was about to put her food in her mouth before stopping and looking at me in a terrified look.

"Huh? What happen-"

"No, stop it! You're trying to force me. I think that's quite odd, to force a woman to say-"

"Shut up, damn it." I glared at her.

She said it so loud that most of my classmates still in the classroom turned to look at us. Fuck! She said that shit out loud purposely. 

Hold on... damn you even more!

No, not you. You're fine.

Horikita.

She might've decided to not harm me using the compass, but I only said that regarding the compass. She chose to harm me another way!

Not only did she say that nonchalantly, but she went back to eating as if nothing happened.

She also achieved her goal of me not annoying her because now everyone staring at us.

'Damn woman.'

There weren't many people in the classroom since it was lunchtime, but that's still people. 

"Good move, Ice Queen. Good move." I said in a monotone voice.

"Mhm. I think so too."

I don't think there will be a day where I can win against this woman.
