PHASE 67 - THE "I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND" BOMB

PHASE 67 - THE “I HAVE A GIRLFRIEND” BOMB

It’s another day at school.

Rikkun and I went together to this classroom like regular mornings, but we didn’t utter any word to each other the whole time. That event last night is the cause of it. I broke his nose and I purposely didn’t heal it for the rest of the night, to make him suffer a little bit more. Just count it as a way to discipline my boyfriend.

He peed on the waterfalls where I’m meditating. I don’t mind being peed on by the man I love. In fact, I’m delighted about that… wait, that’s not my weird fetish! I-I’m just mad because he dishonored the holy waterfall of the Kozukata Shrine.

Rikkun is laying on his desk as he continues to press the ice bag on his nose. He looks so cute and pitiful like an injured baby deer who got hit by a truck on his snout. It will hinder his performance in class, so finally, I decided to heal it.

“Promise me that you won’t disrespect the shrine again!” I held my hips and sermoned like a big sister.

“Right, right.” Rikkun lazily answered with his half-awake looking eyes. “Just heal me already, I can’t use <Healing Touch> to myself.”

I covered my fingers with glowing green prana and touched my boyfriend’s nose, like boop! And in an instant, his sinuses are clear from injury and clotted blood.

Since we officially became a couple, the number of times I break Rikkun’s nose has significantly become lower. It’s because the girls are no longer confessing to him, considering that he’s now taken and in a happy relationship with me.

But I think I shall break his nose more because of some other reason…

It’s already lunchtime, and we decided to eat in our classroom. When Rikkun and I were about to open our lunch boxes, my classmates Divina, Faye, and Trisha grabbed my attention.

"U-Ummm, Tiara... May we have a word with you?" Divina said.

"Sure!" I answered jollily.

We went outside the classroom, away from my boyfriend. They really looked like they have to say something really urgent without Rikkun hearing it.

“M-Miss Divina… What do you want to discuss with me?” I asked the class representative.

“Errr… You see…” Divina scratched her head. “There’s something we have to tell you… about your boyfriend Alaric.”

“What is it? Did he do something really rude again?”

“Actually, it’s THAT rude. It’s just that… none of the girls can talk to him. None, other than you. He’s keeping an invisible barrier between us girls and himself, so there’s no way we can communicate with him.” My other classmate Faye said.

“I… I want to ask a favor.” My other classmate Trisha said as she gave a folder to my hand. “I wanted to relay this thesis paper to Alaric, but I can’t talk to him. You see, he’s our groupmate in our Biochemistry class. Please tell him that we need to revise the statistics.”

“Sure, I’ll give it to him,” I answered with a smile to the depressed classmate of mine. “But is it really true that Rikkun is putting up a barrier between you girls?”

“Watch and see,” Divina spoke as he entered back in the classroom and decided to approach my boyfriend.

Rikkun is lazily staring at the window. He's relaxing his mind by gazing upon the clear blue skies. He hasn’t opened his lunch box yet since he’s waiting for me. He seemed preoccupied in daydreaming, but our class representative proceeded to disturb him anyway.
