Cherry Blossom Abyss

Chapter Five

"alright, here's your check! Anything else?"

I look up and freeze,meeting keiyas eyes.

Keiya...who was supposedly one of our professors at the college.

He raises his brows,handing me a 20.

"And here's your tip."

My eyes widen. I heard he was an asshole,but maybe the rumors weren't true?

I go to grab it but he yanks it away.

"....you thought it was that easy? Do you deserve it?"

I blink. "...huh?"

He grins,a very sadistic smile.

"Beg for it,piggy."

My eyes narrow and I walk towards the register.

"I don't need your pity. Come pay for your food when you're ready."

I guess the rumors were true. He's an ass.

He stares at me for a long time.

Finally,I get annoyed.

"Can I fucking help you??"

He meets my eyes,taking the sucker out of his mouth and narrowing his eyes at me.

"Excuse me?"

"You got a staring problem?"

He puts the sucker in his mouth again,closing his eyes and ignoring me.

I roll my eyes,wiping down the counters.

"You got a crush on that Naoki guy,don't you?"

I freeze.

Then glare up at him.

"No,I don't. Why are you in my business anyways?"

He tilts his head at me.

"Awe,don't lie. You're not very good at it."

I grunt,trying to focus on wiping the counter.

"You know you're not supposed to catch feelings if you attend our college. You'll be kicked out."

I don't look at him.

"I'm aware..."

He doesn't look at me.

"I can help you win Naoki over."

I blink,taken back.

"...I'm sorry?"

He gets up,walking towards the register.

"Princess,you're not deaf are you? Or are you just slow?"

He says,looking at me with eyes of pity.

I narrow my eyes.

"Why would you do that for me for no reason?"

He gives a small chuckle.

"You think I'm doing this for free? Maybe you are slow."

I grunt,voice low. "I'm not."

He leans on top of the counter,in my face,tilting his head at me and gripping my hair.

He tugs my hair to look at him,roughly.

"Yes,you are. You're stupid. A nobody. But luckily,you have me. I will help you. If you be a good girl for me."

I spit at him. Unfazed,his eyes narrow.

He grabs my face with one hand,forcing my mouth open.

"You want to spit?"
