Mystery 21 | Hell of Mirrors

୨ ─────── ஓ๑ ❀ ๑ஓ ─────── ୧

Humming merrily about your current favorite song while skipping around the hallway with a smile that was almost permanent on the face of yours.

A small ' oof ' unintentionally slipped past your lips when your body collided against another body that belonged to someone who's rather way too familiar. Without looking up to meet their gaze, it was very clear that it was him.

Your lips curled into a smug smirk and lazily lifting your head up, only to have the smirk became wider and whispered underneath your breath, not minding if he heard it.

"Ah, shit . . . My biggest problem is here."

The male raised an eyebrow as he analyzing your new outfit that's quite unfamiliar in his eyes.

"[Y/N]? What are you wearing? You looks . . . "

"Gorgeous? Awww, you don't have t—"

"Abnormal."He finished with a look that doesn't show any hint of amusement. Instead of a retort, you cracked a small cackle instead. He does has a point.

"It was better to be abnormal than being a normal, ya know. So I decided to take that as a compliment."You hummed and took a step behind to make a distance between you two, not noticing a small frown that was quickly fade just as the time it appeared due to your action.

"Kaichou, it was already late. Why don't you go home?"You tilted your head to the side, letting the sunray from the light of the evening basking your transparent body. Hands were fixated behind your back, reflecting an act of innocence especially when you replaced the smirk with a smile.

"I was waiting for Kou. I haven't caught any glimpse of his hair today. Apparently, he didn't come to inform me anything if he was going to skip any club activity."

"Oh my gosh, Teru. How oblivious you can be."You slapped your palm against your face as it slides down to cover your lower face while the smile that was adorned on your lips dropped, "Who the hell would tell a student council president if they were going to skip a club? Ah, my Kou has become a grown-up teenager."

His face scrunched up at the words as if in disgust, watching you putting in the Eye Drops; the one that you stole from Hanako— into your eyes, blinking them to wipe the fake tears,

"He grows up so fast."

"Your Kou? Pfft, talking about a joke."He sneered and crossed his arms, throwing his gaze towards the sunset, "For your information, Kou wouldn't do something like that."

What are you, Tsundere?

You thought silently with a deadpanned look painted on your feature and scoffed,

"As you said, Minamoto-san. You were just blinded by the light of his pure innocence. We're in the same case, to be honest."You waved him off while mumbling the last sentence in a low tone.

"Since our topic is about Kou, "He started and look at you dead in the eyes, "I want to discuss you about something."

". . . Go on."

"He . . . has been feeling down lately."

"Welp, it was not a surprise to me since he lives with someone like you."You shrugged and nudged him on his gut, "Guess our perfect president is not perfect at all, hm?"

"I mean, he could've had his confession rejected. He is a growing teenager, oh so famous Minamoto-senpai."You continued and mocking as you did an air quote with your fingers in a sarcastic manner at the end of your sentence while addressing him.

"Stop calling me with that honorific. You totally are thrice times older than me."He pointed out as if it was a fact while you narrowed your eyes to the male.

"Damn rude."

"Wait . . . "The sudden heavy realization finally hit his smartass head when his eyes slowly widened, "Kou likes someone else instead of . . . me and Tiara?"

Ah, Teru.exe will stop functioning at any moment.

"Yep."

"Who? Was it you?"He inquired, the nervousness that he was trying his best to hide in his voice was detected by you who simply smirks in amused and took few steps forward so you would be standing next to him.

"Oh, Teru. You didn't know me long enough to assume everything about me."You laughed and pat him on the shoulder and before you could walk away, you whispered something that was intentionally intended for him to hear and grinning smugly.

"And yeeeeahhhh. It was me."You lied, waiting to see his expression that would be totally priceless. It was worth to see his face flashed nothingness but blank.

Teru.exe has stopped working.

"Knew it you couldn't step into girls' restroom. What a gentleman are you."

He only crossed his arms over his chest in dismay, annoyance starts to build itself inside him in the form of lava inside a volcano of himself that would explode at any time if he receives more of your sarcastic remarks.

"Just bring back, Kou and I'll leave."

"Man, you're telling me you'd wait in front of girls' restroom for the rest of day until I bring Kou back here? Forget the gentleman. Let's replace it with a word of ' pervert '."

You cackled while holding onto your stomach before doing the akanbe gesture towards the male, irking him even more, which resulting him throwing the clipboard he was holding in his grasp towards you but it went out through the window instead when you dodged it.

"Woah, that was a king-sized homerun."You whistles tauntingly with a hand was placed on your forehead just over your eyes to block the light with gaze was thrown into the small light in the orange horizon. The smug grin never leave your lips and turned your head to the male.

"Might start working on your aiming more, dumbass."

"Are you really an old geezer? You aren't mature at all."

A bright smile plastered on your lips as you let out a gleeful laugh, he could tell it was the fakest one he has ever heard from your mouth despite all sarcastic remarks that were thrown by you. A vein popped itself on his cheek when you showed him a middle finger and added another one with your other hand.

Knowing he couldn't do anything to you as long as you remained in the girls' restroom that was obviously the forbidden area of any male students. Especially the Kaichou itself. If he ever did set a step across the line, oh, you're going to have some fun with threatening, taunting and provoking him for the rest of the week of telling the whole school about the latter. That's only if you were in a mood, you'd probably make it a month.

"Sad aren't you? I totally know the feeling of failing to capture your prey."

Cracking another laugh in amusement, you did a mocking salute and mouthing a small ' see you ' before falling backward and disappearing yourself into one of the mirrors of girls' restroom.

He sighed once again and headed to the student council room instead.

───────「 swoosh! 」────────

"I have welcoming myself into the boundary of No. 3!"You grinned triumphantly with pride, thinking you are alone before turning your head down and see the gruesome scene that happened to be not under PG-13 instead.

"Ah, Tsukasa . . . Look what've you done. You caused a mess again."A scowl replaced your grin and pinched the bridge on your nose as you let out a small groan, "And you know how I hate to clean your mess."

"Especially when you messed up my mood."
