I was dumped by my childhood friend, so I went to a shrine to ask God to give me a girlfriend. Then, God gave me a special curse of being liked by a beautiful Yandere girl!

Chapter 21 : Planning and Failure!

In the fourth period, we arrived late and received a scolding from the teacher. Both of us, still flushed with the heat of that moment, entered the classroom, arousing suspicion from Kouta, who asked, “What happened?” But we managed to evade the question somehow.

And time passed… All the classes for the day ended, and it was time for cleaning.

I carefully swept the classroom, expressing gratitude to the place of learning that had taken care of me throughout the day. Unfortunately, Kotono was assigned to a different cleaning team.

As I earnestly cleaned, a boy from the same group approached me. He was short, with short hair and tan skin. Who was this again? Ah, right. I remember now. He’s Tamura from the tennis club.

“Saeki, Kashiwagi has something to discuss with you. She wants you to come to the back of the gym after school.”

“Kashiwagi? Why again?”

“I don’t know. I was just asked to deliver the message. I did my part.”

Does Kashiwagi have something for me? It’s quite suspicious. There shouldn’t be anything left for us to talk about.

Moreover, she knows my Rein address (although I’ve deleted hers), so if she has something to discuss, she could have just sent it directly to me on Rein without asking someone else to deliver a message.

The words of Kouta, “Yokohama seems to be thinking something unnecessary,” flashed through my mind. Kashiwagi might be acting under Yokohama’s instructions.

Feeling a subtle sense of suspicion, I decided to ignore the message. It’s best to stay away from potential dangers. Sorry, Tamura.

◇◇◇◇◇◇

After school, I tried to leave with Kotoko, ignoring Tamura’s message. Unfortunately, I was caught by our homeroom teacher, who assigned me some additional tasks. Kotoko offered to help, but the tasks were quick to finish on my own, so I asked her to wait at the school gate.

“Sigh… it took longer than expected.”

Although the task assigned by the teacher was quickly done, when I reported that the previously requested task was finished, I was given another one as he said ‘while you’re at it’.

Eager to go home with Kotoko, I was annoyed, but I couldn’t complain to the teacher. I reluctantly accepted the additional task. After completing two tasks, I headed towards the school gate, but a considerable amount of time had passed since parting ways with Kotoko.

I hurried to the entrance, changed into my outdoor shoes at the shoe rack, and aimed for the school gate where Kotoko was waiting.

“Takemitsu! Wait a moment!”

Someone called out to me, and I turned around. There stood Kashiwagi. Her face looked really annoying at this moment. Can’t she see that I’m busy and I want to go home with Kotoko?

I tried to ignore and walk past her without even glancing at her.

“I told you to wait!”

She ran after me and grabbed me, twisting my arms in the motion.

“What are you doing!?”

I struggled to escape, but she tenaciously clung to me like an octopus.

“Quick, take a picture!”

“Huh?… A picture?”

—Click.

The sound of a smartphone camera echoed from the shadows of the school building. And from that thicket emerged a slim guy with a smirk. Oh, yeah, I remember. He’s Okazaki from the adjacent class. He often hangs out with Yokohama, and is part of the Yokohama group.

“What are you going to do with a picture of me? Delete it right away. What’s it for?”

“Hahaha… shall I tell you?”

Okazaki aimed his smartphone towards me, showing me a picture he had taken earlier.

“Oh…”

The photo was taken to make it look like Kashiwagi and I were embracing. In reality, I was struggling to escape her, but they skillfully captured a moment that looked like an embrace.

“Senpai is head over heels for you, you know? But what do you think she’d feel seeing a picture of her beloved boyfriend embracing another girl? Then Yokohama will comfort the heartbroken Senpai.”

Indeed, if the jealous Kotoko saw this photo… she might be disappointed and furious with me. These guys… are going to such lengths to separate Kotoko and me? I can’t believe it!

It seems Kashiwagi’s reason for asking me to come was a trap devised by Yokohama. Since I didn’t come to the back of the gym as instructed, they must have searched for me and found me by chance.

“Too bad, Saeki! This is the end for you.”

Okazaki laughed with a disgusting expression. Damn, he’s an annoying guy. I continued to try to reach for his smartphone, but his height advantage made it impossible for me to reach.

“Come on, what’s wrong? Your hands can’t reach, can they, shadowy mooing cow! Perfect for you, there’s a song. Shall I sing it for you? What’s with that look? Hahaha! With this, Senpai belongs to Yokohama.”

Okazaki taunted me leaving no chance to belittle me. Damn it, he’s infuriating. I continued to try to grab his smartphone, but my hands couldn’t reach as he was quite tall. What should I do?

“Is something wrong here?”

At that moment, a chillingly low voice echoed which made me shiver down to the core. Is that perhaps Kotoko? I turned around, and saw that she was slowly approaching from the school gate. Despite it being summer, for some reason, I was trembling. My back shivered uncontrollably, as if it were midwinter.

No doubt about it. Kotoko is extremely angry right now. Her aura of anger enveloped the entire area.

“Takemitsu-kun, you have never been late whenever you promised me. I wondered what happened and came to see… only to find you caught by rats and cockroaches. I’ve heard everything.”

Kotoko glared at Kashiwagi and Okazaki in hatred.
