March 7th

They are not budging an inch. Fuck.

Natsuki and Yuri were only using me as a distraction from each other. They did not have the slightest interest in me, even though I showed interest in their stuff. Why?!

No matter, I still have plenty of time for them to realize I'm the better choice.

Sayori is still thinking about that savage but she'll eventually need someone to lean on to and Ryona is away for a good time.

This is my story, my time, not theirs.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Yuri hadn't given up on contacting the pink tsundere, she texted her and called her again when she got home after club ended that Friday, but again no response.

Before her mind could take her to darker places, fortunately, she received a text from one of her latest acquaintances.

Morgan: Yuri!! I got it! The perfect plan for you to you and Tsuki to come together again!!
Morgan: wait I didn't even ask if you two were able to settle your differences already, shut
Markov's demoiselle: Hello Morgan. No we haven't. I will listen to what you have to say.
Morgan: K, I'll see you tomorrow at 2 pm at the same cafeteria of last time, this has to be addressed personally!
Markov's demoiselle: alright, thank you very much. I will see you there.

Yuri held onto Morgan's words as if that was the ultimate chance to regain Natsuki's trust, trying to just put her mind into that until she went to meet her the following day.

"Are you ready to hear this? It'll probably blow your mind a little!", Morgan said to Yuri who was sitting in front of her nervous, nodding. "Okay, look, I was born in America and spent some time there before moving here, so western culture in general is something I'm very familiar with. I know you japanese are not so sentimental or shameless as us foreigners but in order to you making up to your girl, you'll need to cast that aside", Morgan paused. "W-What do you mean?", Yuri asked more nervous. "I mean, look I obviously heard all of what Tsuki said and where the root of your problem lays, and that's you putting other people's concerns before Natsuki's. So the ultimate goal of this is that you show Tsuki that you don't care about what other people say or think, and that she's the most important thing to you", Morgan paused. "S-She really is. But how do I do that?", Yuri asked expectantly. Morgan breathed in and out deeply.

"Alright I proudly present to you the pink and purple reconciliation mission!", Morgan said pulling out a piece of paper out of nowhere with some notes. "T-The what?", Yuri asked nervous again. "Here's a list of things you will do without skipping anything, and by the end of the week as much, you'll be together again, I will shave my head if you follow this plan and fail", Morgan smiled confident with crossed arms. Yuri then read the list.

1: Wear something in public that shows you are together
2: Decorate your and her locker with lovey dovey stuff
3: Give her flowers in front of her classmates
4: Hijack the school monthly addressing ceremony and tell everyone using the mic how great she is
5: Make a serenade for her in the school cafeteria during lunch

Yuri's expression was that of pure terror.

"How about it? Great isn't it?", the blond girl said grinning. "H-H-How in heavens am I going to do all of this?!", Yuri said blushing madly just at the thought. "I know it's too much for your japanese soul but it's something quite normal in America, Mexico, and western countries in general haha. The point is, this will show her you don't give a damn about other's opinions and show her you're willing to cast aside your insecurities and fears for her", Morgan explained. "I-I think there may be a better way to-", Yuri muttered and was cut off. "Yuri!", Morgan yelled. "W-What?!", Yuri replied startled. "You love Tsuki or not?!", Morgan asked frowning. "Yes!", Yuri said blushing madly. "Then do it for her!", Morgan yelled again. "O-Okay!", Yuri replied firmly. "Alright, we got a plan then", Morgan said grinning with crossed arms, satisfied.

"You really don't have to walk me there you know?", the girl with glasses said. "I know buuuut it's close to the supermarket and I had to go do some shopping anyway", the taller girl said blushing lightly. "I-I think I told you not to worry...", Omiko mumbled quietly. "Okay then I just wanted to spend some time with you!", Airi replied pouting. Omiko just sighed embarrassed.

Through the window of the little family restaurant called "The annoying dog", a twin tailed girl was visible sitting at a table near the window. She then waved a hand in the mint haired girls direction with a smile.

Airi noticed she was actually quite pretty so she, before parting ways with Omiko, she pulled the girl in for a hug and kissed her cheek quickly. Omiko blushed madly and ran into the restaurant leaving Airi outside while Erika just giggled at the scene. Airi waved a hand and began walking away smiling satisfied.

"Who's she?", Erika asked while Omiko sat down. "Her name's Airi. She's... Well, it's complicated", Omiko sighed. "I understand. Well let's talk then", Erika said.

"So you think they are the same person", Erika said. "Yes, I don't know how or what they do but they seem to know things they shouldn't", Omiko said. "I see, well at least I don't have it as rough as you did. My orders were just to stay away from the club and keep you away from there as well. Thanks for cooperating by the way", Erika sighed. "Don't worry, I know your fathers situation is tough, besides I was already away from the club anyway, I planned to come back this past Monday before you dragged me inside that room, you really scared me though", Omiko sighed too. "I'm sorry. So you're free from them already right?", Erika said and Omiko nodded. "I wish I could do the same... But this secret they know it's nothing I can't do about it", Erika said. "Mind telling me again? Maybe we can figure out something this time", Omiko said. "It's my dad. When we were through a bad economical situation he apparently diverted some funds from the company he worked at that time to be able to cover the tuition fee of my previous school. I seriously don't know how would they know that and more importantly have proofs. I can't let my dad go to jail, I mean he did something bad but he said he retrieved the money little by little after, without them knowing anything", Erika explained. "It certainly is something you can't just confess yourself and get rid of... Do you think we could track this person down if we compare our situations and the possible ways they could relate?", Omiko asked. "Seems hard, besides this person may be someone from our school, otherwise why would they want Monika expelled and know so much about the club? Why would someone from school know anything about my father?", Erika asked puzzled. "It is difficult indeed", Omiko sighed.

After receiving the address she needed from the school cap boy, Mayu headed there without much hesitation.

Knocking on the door of a small and yet fancy apartment, Magikick waited for someone to respond. The door then opened and on the other side a girl wearing some jean shorts and a green tank top stood there. Even without her classic ponytail, Mayu recognized her immediately, her brown loose hair looking beautiful as always perfectly matching those emerald green eyes. Magikick couldn't help but blush lightly at the sight.

"Hello, do you need something?", Monika asked curious. "Hi Monika, I'm Mayu Tsurugi. I go to the same school as you", Magikick replied calmly. "Umm nice to meet you, Tsurugi. Why do you know my name...", Monika asked now knowing everything about the white haired girl but still playing along as usual. "Everyone at school does. Anyways, I came to talk to you about the principal's case", Magikick replied. "What about that?", Monika asked. "I know you didn't do it, why were you suspended then? I wanna know", Magikick said firmly. "You came all the way here to ask me that?", Monika asked. "Yeah, but also because I have proof", Magikick replied. "Please, come in", Monika said inviting the girl inside.

Knowing things ahead of time is kinda annoying but it also helps me identify what kind of person I'm dealing with. I ask about what I know they want and see if the lie to me or tell the truth, let's see what kind of person this girl is. Her mind is kind of difficult to unlock though... She doesn't have much information at first glance, it's necessary to talk to her more to figure out with my ability, these types of people exist.

"So why are you so sure I didn't do it?", Monika asked while sitting on the couch next to Magikick. "I saw you", Mayu replied. "Saw me doing what?", Monika asked. "At Murai Plaza, that time when the incident occurred, you were there I guess waiting for someone", Mayu replied. "And how do you know that?", Monika asked. "I went there that day too for an autograph sign event, I saw you from the upper floor", Magikick replied. "Hmmm okay then... And what proof do you have?", Monika asked with crossed arms. "This", Mayu said showing Monika a picture in her phone of her that day sitting at the fountain of the plaza. "W-Why do you have this?", Monika asked a little concerned. "I don't know, I just felt the urge of taking that photo", Magikick shrugged.

This girl really is too straight forward...

"Why are you showing this to me though?", Monika asked curious. "Because I want to help, you didn't do it so it's not fair you pay the price", Mayu replied casually. "Why... We actually just met, why are you-", Monika said concerned before being interrupted. "Do you believe in gravity?", Magikick said staring into the nothingness. "What?", Monika asked puzzled. "They say some people are fated to meet each other. For some purpose. Fated attraction. Something that draws people together. Sounds weird, doesn't it? Well that's the only reason I can give you to be honest", Mayu explained turning her head to Monika as she finished, smiling mysteriously, making Monika feel something funny inside her chest.

Who is this girl? I mean, she seems to be a good person for what my ability can tell but... She's quite mysterious, and kind of cu- !! I'm sorry! What am I saying?!
