Hikaru's POV

My eyes widened, caught off guard by her remark. She looked away as she tries to push me away from her, which became successful. I regain my balance and stared at her now flushed red face. She covered her face with her forearm, trying to shield any gaze that was looking in our direction.

I giggled, followed by a sudden laugh. I could not control myself. She really is interesting.

"Wh-What?!"

"Nothing. I actually backed you up into a corner."

She furrowed her eyebrows and shot me a death glare.

"IDIOT PINEAPPLE!"

She smacks my arm as hard as she could and stormed out of the school after changing her shoes while letting off steam.

Whoops, I made her mad.

I scratched the back of my head, sighing nervously as I grabbed my shoes and placed the school shoes back in the shoe locker.

As I was about to leave the school, I felt someone's presence behind me. I swiftly turned around, and immediately, my eyes met with a pair of emerald green eyes. I recognised the familiar raven hair, and not missing out, those pair of outstanding green eyes.

"What's your relationship with Chiharu?" He questions.

I raised an eyebrow and tilted my head a little.

"Huh?"

"Who are you to Chiharu?" He asked, this time, his tone was more serious.

"A friend... I guess?"

"Heh... Really?"

I nodded. He removes his shoes and swapped it with his outing shoes.

"Well, that means I have no competition, right?" He says, before turning back and giving me a smirk. Something within me stirred. I was not comfortable with his presence and I was definitely perturbed by his remark.

"As if I'll let you," I replied, before finding myself throwing at him a competitive death glare. He smirks at me as if he was prepared for that reply.

"Heh... Good luck then," He replied before walking away.

I stared him down as if he was a big threat to me. Something about him was irritating me. I shrugged and wore my shoes and sauntered back home.

As I walked home, I somehow felt very unmotivated to go home. After all, my parents were coming home from their business trip.

Before I realised it, I was already in front of my house gate. Yes, a gate. I stared at the three-level house in front of me. I stepped in and the gate locked automatically as soon as it closed. I opened the main door, and immediately, I sighed and took off my shoes. I placed the shoes aside and entered my house.
