lie after lie

''you asked why i'm here?it's my job as the president of the disciplinary committee ''yahiro said and coldly stared at gabriel as if threatening here as they looked at each other and glared daggers.

The tension was so thick it could drown a fish''as i'll let that criminal breathe the same air as my princess ''gabriel whispered

''there's something off about you yahiro'' ''euphimia finally spoke up as she finally stood from her seat''are yiu really protecting katarina?or yourself''she added

her words was like a dagger to me...euphimia was right

yahiro doesn't really care about me,he doesn't protecting me from gabriel

he was only pretending to defend me but it wont change the fact that he's protecting nothing but himself

i already knew it from the start but i was only convincing myself nothing is wrong

i'm scared of what will happen to yahiro if they knew about his relationship with rindou,i know rindou is a criminal,i always knew it from the very start the moment we met at the street.the fact that yahiro saved me from him was all an act but i don't want anything bad happened to rindou as well.the way he speak is so genuine.he was always there to help me.i think he wasn't really a dangerous bad guy but it won't change the fact that he's a criminal right?but if i keep protecting them,then it means that i'm betraying not just gabriel,but as well as reiji.they are my friends and i can't do that to them

i just want everything to go back on how they used to be

i felt something hot in my throat as i felt tears rolling down my eyes

''you two call yourselves as student president and now i see you two were nothing but a delinquents''reiji step out from her chair knocked gabriel hard causing to fall him from the ground''why dies it have to be mes ''he dropped his shoulder in despair

you're the one being stubborn here

''but i just want kyashi to be honest with me

''i...i im ''i tried to speak but my overwhelming emotion suffocate me making it hard for me to speak

gabriel saw me and the moment our eyes meet.his eyes somehow softened and glance at yahrio who somehow slowly losing his tight trip and letting go of my hands

you made princess cry! comehere!"gabriel kicked yahiro causing him go out balance and fall on the ground

how let's continue tell us now everything that you're hiding ''he cheerfully asked and sat down on the floor

''you're too persistent!''for some reaosn ,yahiro laugh with everyone

the previous tension went back to normal

i guess the best thing about gabriel is how he gets over his anger pretty quickly

''so katarina...do you actually know anything?''cecilion asked me

well....i don't know anything!''i found myself lying in the moment.i dont even know why i did it but i genuinely felt like i shouldn't be the one to say it

katarina...''yahuro let out a sigh and stood up from the floor and gently placed his hands in my shoulder''you really are kindh'

don't worry ill explain everything

you will?

yeah i'll handle it.i don't want to put you through anymore of this”with that yahiro took a step in front of us”sorry for keeping quiet about this but rindou is my friend”

your what?explain nows''reiji said

I've known him for a long time and he is a criminal,but as far as i knew he was a good man”yahiro folded his arms and avoided eye contact by a glance down...anyways..he recently came up to me asking fir help.”he added as sigh

of course i was going to refuse and thats when katarina saw us at the empty classroom and the music department

actually i was going to stop him but katarina happened to be passing by

why didnt you say something sooner?”

that was probably my ub fairness coming out i thought if i talked about rindou youd all hate me

seriously you're a fool to think like that

i figured you say that

just by thinking that i'd lose my frieds stopped me from saying that”yahiro whispered then looked at everyone with a smile i'm sorry for all the confusion i caused

for some reason i felt a lot more relieved ha ibg understood how yahirp felt since until then,id felt yahoro wasn't qiit being himself

see that?thanks ti me we got hear the truth''gabeiel sttod up proudly with a wide grin on his face

you had nothing to do with it

thank you for letting us know and don't worry yahiro that isn't going to earn us your ure eight everyone''euphimia said with a smile

right''gavriel cheeks were red with envarashment

so what did he specifically ask you to help hin with?did you reply to his fabir?sir glenn finally spoke up after being quite for a whole freaking 15 minutes

katarina showed up before i could answer si he hasn't heard my reply

hes looking for the hidden on academy grounds

a hit of concern stream acroos sir glenns face

if im on the mission tat villain fiod as done''gabriel said prodly

''settle down now gabriel,we still have lots of thibgs to do''reiji dragged gabriel by his cloak ''we will be levibg''

fabriel and the others went off being loud all the way

''thabk you for defending me eaelier katarina..i really didnt expect that feom you

i just nodded and yahiro took a step but as i watched him.go,i couldbt help but think about the small lie he told

yahiro hold on''i tried to catch out with him but he's no longer to be seen

I spotted a perfect rock to kick and take out my anger on the ground Swinging my leg behind me,I wound up to send the rock flying

Missing the rock entirely,my loose shoes was launched gloriously through the air

I timidly turned to face the person who had caught me in the actIt was

nicol?!”His black hair swayed gently in the breeze Blue like the sky and gold like the sun.his beautiful mismatched eyes starred back at meI couldn't peel my eyes away from them

" as long las it was you,I'll make exemption,"

" Katarina....did he just call me by my name

nicol took off the dirt of his sleeve and took off my shoes of the ground and slid it on my feet

However we saw a familiar figure from distance and without thinking i went clos it its direction

''you seem anxious?”

shut up?you're the coquettish right?''euphemia responded and flash a confident and mocking smile

shut up!

You don't like it?her voice said in slight disgust. I didn't say anything, I just looked at them preparing for what will happen next. "Yah the nickname matches you so well”euphimia once again glared down at him in disgust,

''i don't deserve this,right? ''he.asked as he smiled bitterly

''I never felt humiliated my entire life,back then,you tore down my love leter but ncio is just fine?

handsome guys are fine right?''

it has nothing to do with the a preachers kte me go

why do you have to go this far?do you really think you're a princess and can do what ever you want?he yelled angrily

His eyes were boiling in rage as my widend widened when he relieved a gingher scissors in his hands and rushed towards euphimia when someone came rushing towards her aHe then took the scissors and grabbed the shapred edge before it count hit euhimias cheek

“i know you will encounter this sooner or later because you're too overbearing euphemia”nicol said and smiled at her genuinely not minding his hand, holding the sharp edge oslit his palm deeper till it was bleeding. He dropped the scissors

I was shokc to see nicol bleeding and without thinking i run towards them and kicked him in his stomach leaving him groaning in pain on the ground.

“Are you injured?”nicol asked, looking incredibly concerned at euphimia as he held her hands”youre bleeding nicol!”euphimia responed as she gently pick up his hands and wrapped it with her handkerchief

“compare with your safety this kind of injury is nothing”he said with a gentle voice?”please take good care of yourself"
