(Un) Fortunately the Yandere is Not After Me

(Not So) Good Morning

"Are you trying to run from us again?" This was a bad spot to be in. Unfortunately for Yuriko, this was what she found herself in with her sister hiding behind her.

"I already told you. I don't want to deal with you anymore." She replied to them.

"Hmpf." The main girl in this gang was talking with her. "You got weak haven't you?"

"Whatever, I'm not letting you get me in trouble." She wished that she could fight her way out of this, but with Yurisa here. That might not be the best idea.

"Listen here." The girl grabbed her arm. "I don't get the big idea, what's with you avoiding us ever since you got back." Yuriko balled her hand in a fist. This might not be the type of situation to avoid physical action. Even if she didn't want to do it in front of Yurisa. Luckily, she did have to.

"You should probably lay off." Another voice entered this conversation. It was Arata. "This is hardly how I imagine people want to spend their mornings." He attempted to look cool, when on the inside, he was panicking heavily.

"Oh I see now." The girl turned her attention to him. "No wonder you're so soft now. You went and decided to make a boyfriend out of this loser."

"I'm just a friend." Arata responded in an agitated tone. "One that would rather you leave her alone." He wasn't sure what exactly he had walked into. When he found out that Yuriko had already left before he got to her house, it worried him. So he was glad he was here to help.

"Listen you punk. You should mind your own business. Or else we'll teach you a lesson again." She threatened him.

"Maybe you shouldn't..." Something caught his attention. "Wait a second, did you say again?" Arata was confused by the word choice. He took a look at this girl. She had long red hair. Though unlike Yuriko's, this was obviously dyed. She had the school uniform of their school, but he had never seen her before.

"What wrong punk? You too stupid to say anything?" The girl taunted him.

"I'm sorry, but have we met before?" He didn't know why this girl acted like she knew him.

"Ha, you hear that?" She said to the other two girls with her. "We must've beat him so hard, we gave him memory loss." They laughed at the joke, then the girl got up into his face. "We can do that again."

"Look." He tried to keep cool, or else he knew he was going to lose. "There's a kid here." He pointed over to Yurisa. "Maybe we shouldn't be exposing them to violence." For what felt like an eternity, the two engaged in a staring contest.

"Whatever." The girl backed off. "I don't feel like getting myself dirty today." She said, before turning away from him and leaving with her posse. He sighed, his body felt so light from that stressful situation.

"What are you doing here?" Yuriko asked him. Sad that he was present for this. She was certain that she sent a message telling him that she wouldn't be able to walk with him today.

"I got a little worried I saw that you were already gone." When he met her parents, they told him that she had already left. Despite the fact that it was rather early for school. The bigger thing that stuck out to him when he met them. Would probably be the shock when they saw him. As if they surprised it was him specifically.

Without much more argument, he accompanied her to drop off Yurisa. He wanted to ask about what had just happened, but felt it should be in front of the young child.

"So what exactly was that all about?" He asked her, once they started to make their way to their own school. "Who were those girls?"

"It's nothing you should worry about." She answered." They're just a bunch of delinquents." The truth was that she had been contacted by them. She didn't want him to have to deal with them too.
