The next day.
Everyone is still glaring and whispering at me like yesterday.
"Come on, sensei~~. What if something would be happening?"
Some girls from my class are talking to Kogami sensei.
One of them is looking over at me.
"Eek...!"
Right after she stpotted me, she hides herself behind Kogami sensei.
Sensei looks annoyed and rolled his eyes.
"For matters like these, are other numbers more effective. I also got a life, you know? I can't give you my phone number, now hurry up, and go back to class."
Thank goodness.
He didn't told anything.
It's enough for me to be hated. But I wouldn't bear, someone to be hated because of me.
I walk pass Kougami sensei, giving a light bow to greet him.
"Oh, morning Tachibana--..."
Just as I stopped to turn around, one of the girls interrupts him.
"Kogami Sensei..! Be careful, or she'll come to us!"
She told him without lowering her voice.
I clench my fists, and keep on going without looking back.
"T-Tachibana...!"
He shouted after me but I don't stop.

As I'm passing the people around me, they're shouting,
"Hey, there's Killer Machine!"
Someone said.
"What, serious?! Gotta get out of here!"
The one beside him yells.
Everyone distanced themselves from me, standing in the shadows,
holding their breaths.

Hmph, 'Killer Machine'? I actually got a nickname.

I keep on going without paying attention to anyone.

I silently write some notes in class.
This is a little difficult to understand...
Maybe I should ask Sensei about this problem after class ends.
As I'm thinking to myself, some crumplet paper came flying towards me, landing on my desk.

I took the paper in my hand, and look towards the place it came flying from.
Three boys and three girls are glancing at me, their expression serious.
I hesitantly unfold the paper, and see letters with black ink.
'Get lost'.
I furrowed my brows at the two words.
I need to get out of here...
I'm telling the teacher that I'm feeling unwell, and left the room.

"*sigh*..."
I look over the paper once again.
At times like these, I really wish I could.
I fold the paper into a paper pilot.
I don't need this to get, that I'm unwanted.

I let it flow away.
"No paper pilots in school!"
I tense up at the sudden shout.
I hear the sound of footsteps getting closer.
I prepared myself to get scolded, when suddenly...
"Tachibana...?"
Standing there is Kogami sensei.
I'm speechless, so I only gave a light "Oh..." of me.
"What are you doing here? And why are you throwing things at teachers?"
Saying that, Kougami sensei holds up the paper I threw at him.
"N-no..! I-I..."
Struggling for the right words, Kogami sensei looked at the paper pilot again, and eventually unfolds it.
"A-ah..! T-this is...!"
I tried to stop him, but he already unfolded the paper.
I could see a dark shadow appearing on his face as he reads the words on the paper.
"T-the words aren't addressed to me, are they??"
He asks, his voice shaking.
"Huh..? Ah..! Of course not, no! T-they are from--..."
I stopped.
Shoot, I didn't want to tell him!
But it's too late. He's looking at me with a sharp glare.
"Um, I mean..!"
"Did someone else did this to you?"
He cuts me off, and hit the bullet in the eye.
I slightly hung my head.
"No...I'm fine. If you please excuse me--"
"Why do you just let it go? Although this stuff is happening to you, why don't do anything about it??"
He interrupted me and told me with an low but also calm voice.
I clenched my fists and shouted right back at him.
"Because it's no use! Everyone's hating me, it's fact! It doesn't matter if I accept your help or not!"
I lowered my voice at this point.
"Even if I do something about it, the fact that I'm still hated wouldn't be over."
He clicks his tongue by my words.
"Tachibana..."
"Please, just...forget about it."
I clench my fists as I said that to Kougami. I took my leave after that.
"Hey Tachibana..!"

He tried to stop me but I already left.
