5 girls who really, really, really, really, really stalking me

I don't like it (Matsushita)

– It's not fair..! Why should I be in a class with such defects..!

Looking directly at Chabashira-sensei, I heard strange lamentations from a dark-haired girl in my right ear. If you look at it, you can say that it is quite beautiful and even somewhat sporty, but this is just the exterior facade. Naturally, you won't even be able to suspect anything wrong until you come into contact with her. Although, of course, you can be warned by those cold, almost dead eyes like those of a fish washed ashore.

In any case, looking in her direction would be quite dangerous right now, which is why I had to just ignore her existence. It wouldn't be nice if she suddenly turned her attention to me.

– It's your fault..!

A strange annoying sound reverberated in my ears when I still had to turn my head slightly in the direction of my seatmate. She was looking straight at me, her deep scarlet eyes seemed to be shining with the red color of blood right now, as if strongly reflecting the blood flowing inside the capillary vessels.

– Me..?

– Yes.

She didn't speak loudly so that the teacher wouldn't notice us, but I can still hear her clearly. Moreover, I have a feeling that at every word she seems to additionally hiss, just to show that she is a vile African viper. Only if this snake is mostly docile during the daytime, then Horikita adheres to a completely different daily routine.

– You should have seen this coming.

– I had to what..?

I don't think I look like a wizard or some kind of fortune teller. I have no superpowers in my power to predict the future, I don't really believe in astrology or any other mythical stuff. Horikita's claims are groundless, this is a fact that cannot be refuted.

– Are you deaf too? Have you completely atrophied your brain this month?

Just think how it's possible to study in the same class with this girl at all. To be honest, she's the only one who talks to me, but that doesn't make the situation any better. To be honest, if I had known in advance that it would end like this, I would not have gotten involved in a conversation with her at the beginning of last month.

– You told me about surveillance cameras, pointed out prices in stores, expressed concern about students from other classes. Doesn't that mean that the entire responsibility for our failure lies entirely on your shoulders?

– No, definitely not.

Her strange logic amazes me. No, it can't even be called logic as such, because not a single logical chain between events was built. She just somehow inexplicably linked my tips and how badly our class performed.

Horikita stared at me with a cold and hateful gaze until the very end of the day. In her free time at lunch break, she even tried to hit me with her sharp mathematical compass. In short, this girl really knows how to cause inconvenience.

If I could hear her thoughts, she would probably start thinking something like, "I want to pour water on him in the toilet and throw something sharp on his chair." If this were really the case, I would have to really think about how to continue in this school with my peaceful life.

– Ayanokoji-kun, right?

– Hm? What is it, Matsushita?

– Wow, you remembered.

I met this girl almost immediately after I left the school building. She smiled sweetly after I called her by name, although there is nothing unusual in this, because we are classmates after all. In any case, I would at least remember her name for the sake of decency.
