On Wednesday Senju came to my class during the break to invite me to a hangout, I agreed although she asked me to meet her at our final destination because she had some matters to attend to before that, she just left me with a paper with the address written on it. After school, I grabbed some food, but when I was finally heading for my objective I saw a glimpse of Kisaki that was hanging with Hanma of all the people. I was shocked they were doing it so openly though my guess was because Kisaki wasn't yet part of Toman he had none to hide his relationship with Hanma with. I got curious regarding what they were chattering about.

"Change target." that's all I heard before Hanma finished his sentence. But he continued the conversation.

"Someone saw him with a girl." who were they talking about?

"How did she look like?" Kisaki asked, Hanma looked at his phone, but then his head suddenly turned and looked straight at me, he was contentiously looking at his phone and then back at me.

"That's her!" he said pointing at me, I tilted my head to indicate I was found in a confusing predicament.

Kisaki then turned his head, as soon as our gazes met his face turned sour.

"Tetta-kun~ what a coincidence~" of course I couldn't waste this glorious opportunity.

"You know her?" Hanma asked him but got totally ignored.

"Since you're here let me ask you a question." I just made a gesture with my hand that indicated I wanted him to keep speaking.

"Do you have a boyfriend by any chance?" I gasped loudly, this would be fun.

"Oh~ Have you changed your mind, that's why your asking. You finally decided to accept my feelings for you?" He got instantly angry, but Hanma just looked like he was enjoying a soap opera back home on a couch.

"No!" his voice I found rather cold.

"Then why do you want to know? Are you searching for a girlfriend for your friend? I'm not interested in giraffes tho." Before they could react I continued.

"No there is more to it, isn't there? Is that the person you like? Is this my fearsome love rival?" I just leaped and put Kisaki into a hug, to mark my territory.

"Tetta-Kun is mine!" only seconds in and he was already pushing me away.

"Let me go, you psycho!" I released him from the hug, only to whip out a tissue from my pocket and dab it under my eyes.

"So rude, all my love for you is nothing but sincere!" he didn't buy it.

"Can you just answer my question?!" I sighed shoving the tissue back into my pocket.

"I just got rejected, you think finding a boyfriend is like picking up stray cats from the streets?" Suddenly a phone was shoved into my face.

"Then what were you doing with this guy?" Hanma showed me a picture of Ryohei and me.

"That's basically the day I met him." I was so confused, why did they take his pictures, and what was this interrogation all about?

"And followed him home?" Why was he so interested.

"I'm not sure why this giraffe knows I followed him home, but he just let me borrow some manga books, is going to a guy's house a crime?" wait a moment here, from all the clues I got they were definitely keeping their eyes on Ryohei.

"Not sure what you think happens when you follow a guy home, I went to Tetta-Kun's house as well, does it immediately mean something happened between us? Aren't delinquents supposed to be against stupid social structures? You guys sound like old men stuck in the past." then I got an evil idea, I stepped away to get a better escape route.

"Also stalking a guy, I dunno that sound...GAY!" and I ran away not even looking back at those two creeps. Any more time spent here would make me late for my appointment with Senju. But I couldn't stop pondering about what they were talking about. By any chance were they trying to make Ryohei their target? Should I warn him someone was tallying him?

Then I saw Senju that was standing outside a gym? Of all the places?

"Let's go in!" she basically dragged me inside the building.

"What is this about?" I didn't like gyms, who wanted to be in such a sweaty environment? As I was dragged inside I not only saw Takeomi, that was as surprised as me, to find each other at such a place. But also Wakasa, wait by any chance was this the very gym he owned?

"Oh Senju's brother, sup... you look so much better, I think the shaving did its job." Takeomi just blinked at me, yes unlike his previous bum look, he shaved and lost the dark circles under his eyes. Now he made it seem like his life was back on track, was it because he cried his eyes out last time and decided enough was enough? Did I by chance trigger something?

"Is that your girlfriend?" I pointed at Wakasa which didn't even change his bored expression. Senju looked at me and then Wakasa then back at me as she finally let out.

"He's a man tho." I nodded.

"Sorry, your pretty face had me fooled... boyfriend?" Takeomi just sighed.

"Just a friend." I struck a thinking pose to show as if I was contemplating something, who would have thought that a mission would pop up.

'Would you rather expose Takeomi Akashi of hugging you, or tell Senju Akashi that you have other matters to attend to which you forgot about?' Ah yes, the system wanted me to act like a prick either way. I took the first option.

"Since you do have a friend that can hug you in the direst of your times, maybe you should refrain from hugging your sister-friends instead."

"This kid... I told you already that was a misunderstanding."

"Sorry sorry, I just like to mess with people."

"So Senju why did you drag this kid into my gym?" Yes, that's what I also wanted to know. Senju shot me a smile while explaining.

"I thought it would be fun if you could teach my friend how to fight." I couldn't believe her, she didn't even ask me whatever I wanted to learn how to fight.

"You never mentioned this to me." I crossed my arms, showing my sheer disappointment.

"Sorry, I somehow knew that you would refuse, but I thought that maybe if I dragged you here, you would change your mind." was I so obvious? But we never talked about anything like fighting and sport, where did she get the idea that I would despise it? I just stood there while one thought echoed in my mind.

"You thought a pretty instructor would change my mind?" She actually nodded.

"Come on, I know you will become a great fighter, and then we can become a strong delinquent duo!" Another person that just did whatever they wanted.

"This thing... becoming great at fighting?" Wakasa said as his eyes scanned me up and down.

"Doubtful." I mean I would become stronger with time if I could just reach over the 30 stats mark, but seriously I didn't want to involve myself in any fights.

"She looks like she neither has the strength nor the willpower." wow why was he taking this so seriously? To prove a point to Senju he tried to see my reflexes by throwing a punch, well I did manage to avoid it but at the sheer cost of the humility of falling down.

"Wow, not sure about the strength but she sure will confuse the enemy with her falling performance," Takeomi said while I just sat on the floor wondering what kind of gods I outraged. Senju outstretched her hand to help me back up.

"Is it only me that's seeing the sparkles around her?" Senju let out, as I looked around seeing nothing she claimed to have witnessed. Then I heard the notice widow sound. Oh, no.

'Would you rather take fighting lessons from Wakasa Imaushi or take fighting lessons from Keisuke Baji.' I read the specification, it wasn't like I needed to take lessons from those two constantly, just twice a week for 2 months. I didn't even think twice about my choice, I clicked on the first option.

"Sure I can take a fighting lesson from him, but I don't have much time to spare, so how about twice a week, for a duration of 2 months? You know as a run trial. I will save up money to pay for your trouble mister." His face was hard to read since his expression never changed.

"As long as I'm paid I'm fine with this." Great.

"How about a discount?" Senju was tasting the waters I see.

"You can't make my friend pay full price, right?" Wakasa just patted our heads?

"I can't believe I will have to deal with two brats now." Senju turned towards me.

"You got the discount." I wasn't so sure I did.

"But can't you think about coming more often? I'm not sure whatever 2 times a week is enough." I wanted to put time into completing the missions since nothing would change if I didn't raise the stats.

"Can't, I'm too busy talking with people... can't help I'm so popular~" I flipped my hair. Causing Takeomi to roll his eyes at me, the audacity.

"Your friend is really weird." was all he could tell Senju.

From then on we just booked me at random times, thru out the two months we agreed upon, I wrote everything down on my phone. When we finished Senju showed me her moves in the boxing ring.
