PHASE 12 - A CONFESSION A DAY BREAKS RIKKUN’S NOSE ALL THE WAY

What should I do? What should I do?

If Rikkun converts himself into a priest, I will never have the chance to marry him! My dream team of eight children will never be granted! I’ve gone so far now, and this timeline is the only chance I got!

That’s my wandering thought as I rushed to the school grounds with buttered toast stuck on my mouth. It’s still half-an-hour early for class, but I’m planning to ambush the man I secretly love in our classroom. I already went to Heushac’s house, and nobody’s there except Eliseo who is doing his ‘secret job’ in front of a webcam. I can only assume that Rikkun is already at school.

As I opened the classroom door, I immediately swallowed the toasted whole and then made a greeting! “G-GOODMORNING RIKKUN!!!”

Some of the early bird classmates were startled, but not that heartthrob blonde. It’s given because he’s at the far side of the room, and some girl is attending on him.

More like confessing.

It’s the adorable tiny student from another class. She has this twin ponytail hairstyle on her brown hair, and a blushing face.

“U-Um… I know that you have been rejected lately… But I am here for you! I-I may not be as beautiful and talented as Miss Tiara Hikari, but I can assure you that I have a good heart. A-And I will give it to you…” The shy girl bowed.

“I’m sorry, I don’t need a heart transplant.” Rikkun said with an “I don’t care” stare.

“Wha-...” The girl was astounded. Then she proceeded to run away as she cried: “A-Alaric rejected meeeeee! Uwaaaaah!!!”

Heushac glanced at Rikkun with a smirk. “Looks like the Arrogant King is back on the game.”

“Hell yeah, I am.” He returned the smile and made a high-five with his best bud.

I really hate it when Rikkun is so rude to somebody who made a lot of effort to confess. I mean, a love confession is born from a girl’s strong sense of emotions and feelings of bravery! I can’t even muster my courage to do it, and here he is, just throwing the poor girl’s feelings in a smart-aleck reply. Why won’t he reject those feelings in a proper manner!?

He needs to be punished!

“Uh-oh.” Heushac muttered as he saw me approaching Rikkun’s desk. Then he pulled out his phone and pretended to play games.

Meanwhile, Rikkun’s defense is wide open. He’s just leaning on his arm while giving a carefree yawn.

“Pwah!”

As soon as my left fist went straight to his nose, Rikkun started rolling to the ground.

“What the heck is wrong with you!?” He cried.

“You never learn! I always said that you have to reject girls in a more appropriate manner, and here you are, doing it all over again! How many times do I have to tell you, Rikkun!”

“Shut up! You think that I’ve become soft due to my character development? No! So just mind your own business, you freaking witch!”

The moment he uttered the W-word, my consciousness stopped. I lost the power to reason and hold back.

“Y-Y-Y-Y-Y-You dumb blonde asshole!”

Bam! A loud punch echoed around the whole campus.
