I just finished class and I'm about to go home when Hitomi grabs my hand and pushes me into a supply closet.

"What are you doing? "

She puts a hand over my mouth.

"Shut up will you! I have something to tell you. "

"What? "

"I know about your little thing for Noriko. "

"Wha-"

"Shut up. I won't tell her or anyone. Only if you do me a favor. "

"What kind of favor?"

"Play a game with me. "

"How would the game go? " I asked.

"We make up a story about how Ryu did something bad, like I don't know, beat someone. Then we tell Noriko. She'll break up with him. Then before they can get back together, I'll take Ryu. Then you can have Noriko. "

"Why are you doing this for me? "

"I'm not doing it for you, I'm doing it for me. I want Ryu and Noriko's in the way. You can help me get her out of the way or she's gonna get hurt. "

I won't let Hitomi hurt her.

"Alright. I'll play your game. "
