Ladies aaaand gentlemen! This is the moment you’ve all been waiting for. In my left corner: master of the blank expression, psychic extraordinaire, sponsored by coffee jelly. Saiiiki Kusuooo! Aaaand, in my right corner—offu! God’s favorite child, an angel on Earth! The ethereal! The prettiest! Theeee most perfect girl! TERUHASHI KOKOMI!
I’m sensing a bias here.
FIGHT!
“Hey, Saiki-kun!”
Teruhashi-san comes in strong with a perfect pretty girl technique! How will Saiki-kun respond to her angelic greeting?
Good grief. He gave her a short nod before continuing on his way.
Saiki-kun’s defense is iron-strong as always! It’s almost an exact repeat of the start of their very first match! Will Teruhashi-san go on the offensive again?
Saiki stiffened as a gentle but firm hand closed around his wrist.
She’s made physical contact! Saiki-kun’s looking flustered!
Don’t lie. You’re being biased again.
He looked pointedly down at Teruhashi’s hand. She jolted and snatched it back.
Will Teruhashi-san’s own boldness be her undoing?
“Um, I just wanted to know if you’d like to come to a café with me?”
A lightning fast recovery! What excuse will he try? A family event? Unfinished homework?
“I’ll buy you coffee jelly!”
What’s this? Teruhashi-san followed up with Shameless Bribery! It’s not one of her perfect pretty girl techniques at all!
Saiki blinked slowly. He could just buy his own coffee jelly, couldn’t he?
It looks like this match is coming to a close. Saiki-kun is gearing up to deliver a K.O with Fatal Rejection. But…Teruhashi-san is using a never-seen-before technique! Her eyes are shining with honesty! It’s a direct attack with Genuine Smile!
‘I’d buy him all the coffee jelly in the world if I could. I just love spending time with him. Because he doesn’t treat me like an ideal, but also because I just like his company. I like him.’
“Saiki-kun, I want to go on a date with you!”
Saiki’s hand shot to his mouth, but it didn’t muffle his involuntary gasp.
It’s Game Offu!
Good grief, he could feel the smile forming behind his hand, and even worse, he could feel himself beginning to blush. He must have looked like an idiot.
It’s been victory after victory for the undefeated champion! Will her opponent finally retire from the ring?
Just shut up.
He took her hand in his, fingers intertwined, while Teruhashi’s heart melted.
This one’s a tie.
