A brawl using sharp words.
---_---_---_---

Sasaki Ayume

"Hey, Ayume!" My head turned to hear a familiar voice behind. "I've never seen you for a week!" As expected.. It was Shigeo, holding a bouquet of flowers. I laughed nervously as i felt the gaze of the surrounding observing my every move. "family things, you know.." I forced a smile stepping away a little.

"So, how are you?" He placed his hand behind his back and slightly bent his upper body to reach my eye level. "I'm okay.. i just have little thoughts in mind."

"You seemed bothered by it.."

"well, yeah! My head kinda hurts."

"Shall i give you some medicines? or do you want me to massage your head-" his hand reached out for my temples but i immediately avoided his touch. Shigeo was also surprised. "Ayume..?" He called out a little confused.

"Don't worry. I can manage it myself."

"Okay." He was quick to give up. I still wonder why he's courting me. I hugged the bouquet of flowers and continued to walk beside Shigeo. We had small talks but the rest was just a long and awkward silence. How uncomfortable..

"There's something i've been meaning to ask while you we're gone." Shigeo brushed his hair backwards, getting agitated. "What is it?" Suddenly, he stopped on his tracks. That also made me look at him with confusion.

Shigeo hesitantly licked his dry lips and played with his fingers. "When are you going to be my girlfriend-"

-I felt something going pass me in a blink of an eye.

A taiyaki went right into shigeo's face. He was taken aback because the filling inside smudged all over his uniform. "Shit. What a waste.." I heard a voice with sincere regret on his actions.

Sano Manjiro.

My foot fell backwards on instinct but he was able to catch my arms to stay in place. "Why did you just do that?!" Shigeo's eyes shot daggers at the small blonde.

Mikey's eyes shifted to shigeo's way, observing his stature from head to toe. "Oh, my bad.."

"My bad? You ruined my uniform!" Shigeo's voice raised stepping closer to mikey. "And what do you think are you doing to Ayume?" His hands flicked off mikey's, pulling me to his side.

Suddenly, i feel like a heroine.

"Ayume? Did you just say ayume?" Mikey's voice became unclear. He was trying to figure out of he misheard, which he wished he did. "Yes! Ayume! Can you just back off and leave us alone? You're not just being rude to me but also to her-"

"I'm being rude to her?" Mikey laughed out loud pointing at himself.

As much as i love for guys to fight over me. The eyes of the other students freaks me out. I just want to step back but my legs stayed stiff.

Shigeo furrowed his eyebrows getting no response from mikey who was laughing hysterically.  "Come on Ayume. Let's leave him alone-"

"Stop right there."

The short male slowly approached shigeo. His hands instinctively searched for his pocket.

I hate to be the one stopping them but when there's these kinds of glares happening? It needs to stop.
