“Thank you for the drink!”

Now, we are at the cafeteria. How can she know about my secret? I never talk about this to anyone other than Chiba. Wait, did this female know Chiba? I can't think of anything that can happen.

“Takahashi-kun, why do you look so tired?” asked Hayato-san.

“Whose fault do you think that I got tired right now?”

“Don't worry! I never talk about this to anyone. Now, let’s get back to my problem. Can you become my fake boyfriend?”

Why is she so persistent about this?

“Before that, you need to tell me how you know about my channel? Did anyone tell you?”

“That is a secret.”

Damn!

“Fine! I will become your fake boyfriend. Only for today, right?”

“It depends.”

“Wait? What do you mean by that?” I thought this would be only for today.

“I can't say for sure but I promise I will do anything for you after all of this ends.”

I just thought that my life will be at peace finally.

“Okay. So, what do I need to do?”

Pulling out a small book that looks like a diary, she opens a certain page. On that page, there was some kind of plan…

“Revenge plan?!”

“Exactly! I am trying to make him regret leaving me with another girl. How dare he embarrass me in front of so many people by announcing his breakup with me. I want him to apologize to me. No! I will make him do something worse,” she said while laughing like a final boss.

“This plan is too absurd. I feel that I am wasting time doing this. Please find someone else.”

“Oni sing.”

“Can you let me go please? I will do anything other than this.”

“It's too hard because I can't find people that I have weaknesses that I can control like you. This is our plan tonight. Take a picture of it or give me your phone number. I will text you later.”

I feel that I can't escape from this no matter what I do. Her ex-boyfriend is quite popular among female students. Also, he is a vocalist of the band that is currently popular after making their major debut last month. After talking to Chiba, I found out that Hayato-san also is actually quite popular — she’s even become a model for beauty magazines. She and her ex boyfriend broke up last week during the performance of her ex boyfriend. Announcing it in front of audiences, surely it will cause chaos and stress to Hayato-san.

“It's quite simple but I'm fine with it,” said Hayato-san, complimenting my clothes, hoodie, blue jeans and a pair of sneakers.

“We will go to that night club right now. He always spends his time there with his friends.”

“Don't you think you should tell me what I need there? You didn't explain it to me thoroughly during the text earlier, other than meeting here at 8 pm.”

“You just need to follow my lead. And you should call me by the name Mika. This is to show that you and I are close enough to call each other by first name,” she explained.

“O-okay, Mika.”

“Don't be too stiff! Relax! Now, let's go inside!”
