[Sigh]. Physical Evidence(PE) Ahem PHYSICAL EDUCATION(PE) CLASS!

Urghhh~.

-WHISTLE!

I hate my-

No, I love it.

And the reason for that is simple.

As long as its not joint PE classes, we don't have to run around the whole school.

Instead, we run a lap or two on the track field of the school for a warm up which is by far bett-

"FOR TODAY, WE ARE GOING TO SWITCH THINGS UP A LITTLE!"

That doesn't sound good in any regard at all.

"WE ARE GOING TO BE WORKING OUT ON PARTNER EXERCISES TODAY!"

Not as bad as I thought.

Hold on, if that's the case then-

"PARTNERS ARE GOING TO BE PAIRED AT RANDOM ACCORDING TO THE NUMBER YOU PICK! INDIVIDUALS WITH MATCHING NUMBERS WILL PAIR UP! STAND IN TWO STRAIGHT SINGLE FILES, BOYS TO THE RIGHT, GIRLS TO THE LEFT!"

-WHISTLE!

The whole class listened obediently as boys stood to the right in a single file while girls also did the same.

"CLASS REP GIRL, MANAGE THE GIRLS AND CLASS REP BOY, MANAGE TO THE RIGHT!"

Sayumi and the vice class rep then managed the two lines which were picking cards in a box to avoid them from ever cheating or accidentally picking two or more cards. Their job was to ensure that you would only pick one card and would pick once.

Since we are a class of 50, that would mean we would be in 25 pairs.

The boys were picking blue numbered cards whilst for girls, they were red.

Both class reps where the last to pick cards in their respective boxes meaning they had the last cards.

As for me, I had a blue numbered card with the number 18.

Mmmmmh?

I wonder who my partner would be.

"ONE! RAISE YOUR HANDS!"

And a boy and a girl did just that as they were instructed to stand in a pair until the rest of us underwent the same process.

"EIGHTEEN! RAISE YOUR HANDS!"

I raised my hand and checked who my partner is and it was…

Why?

Why is my poor life so full of cliches?

Haven't I had enough?

Why Saki, why?

The moment she noticed me, she appeared flabbergasted and I also reacted the same.

Just thinking about what's going to happen today is enough to give me a severe headache.

I would already have one right now if it wasn't for the joyous lunch I had with Sayu.

We stood in a pair, making sure that the gap between us was as wide as possible.

There was no need for words.

We both understood each other very well to the point where we knew what the other person was thinking.

It wasn't that difficult at all.

After that process was over with, there were 23 mixed couple groups and 2 single sex groups since our class is made up of 27 girls and 23 boys.

Saki was the last person I needed to get involved with right now!

Any other girl in my class would be better.

Even if she isn't physically or facially attractive.

Then a brilliant idea struck a chord in my head like trying to create a specific melodious loop.

Hah, I should have thought this sooner.

Why don't I just exchange with someone else?

Its not even that complex.

Yeah, she would be happy if it was with her boyfriend, Natsuo who is in our class by the way but there is no way I am going to give her that type of undeserved happiness.

Why do I have to give her happiness?

In fact, let me look for someone whose character is a bit out of order and the worst type of person she can contend with and I have the perfect candidate for that.

People know him as an otaku but people well versed in things like that know him by a different title.

A Chuunibyou!

Kazuma, the chuunibyou!

Chuuni for short.

If you want to understand how I know that kind of deep stuff is because due to boredom at home, I started watch anime but without even realizing it, I became a deep anime fan. There was this time I tried to connect with Kazuma based on anime but before I had the chance to, he started spouting some deep legendary cringe mantra stuff that fried my brain in an instant and that's when I knew, yep, he's a tough candidate to handle.

Speaking of which, what's coming out today?

Guess I'm not as devoted as I thought.

But anyways…

Yes! What a perfect candidate!

Bwahahahahahaha!

I think whoever his partner is, is way better than Saki!

His partner in question was also trying to exchange their partner in clear desperation with someone else so it's a win-win for me.

Unfortunately, they were caught in the process by the old man.

"WHAT DO YOU THINK YOU ARE DOING?!"

"Obviously trying to change partners, duh."

Oh boy.

"YOU AND YOUR PARTNER! A FULL LAP AROUND THE SCHOOL NOW!"

"What? Teacher, how could you make me run around the whole school for trying to change partners? That doesn't make any sense! They are just physical activities anyway." Koharu protested.

"THAT'S THE REASON WHY I MADE EVERYONE DRAW CARDS AT RANDOM! THIS IS A LESSON! NOT A PLACE WHERE FRIENDS GET TO HANG OUT! BY TRYING TO EXCHANGE PARTNERS, YOU ARE QUESTIONING THE MORALITY OF MY LESSON AS THAT'S ALSO PART OF IT!"

"But teacher it's not fair!"

"STOP WASTING MY TIME AND START RUNNING!"

"I promise I won't try to do that ever again, teacher. Could you please let me go for just this once? Pretty please!"

"IF I START SHOWING FAVOURABILITY, EVERYONE WILL ALSO TRY TO DO THE SAME WHICH WILL DISRUPT MY LESSON! NOW GET GOING!"

"But teach-"

-WHISTLE!

He stretched out his other hand to the class and…

"LET THIS BE A LESSON TO YOU ALL! ANYONE WHO TRIES TO DO THIS WILL NOT JUST GET TWO LAPS AROUND THE WHOLE SCHOOL BUT WILL BE ADDED WITH OTHER SEVERE PUNISHMENTS!"

This guy is pure evil!

"Teach-"

-WHISTLE!

"GET GOING! I DON'T HAVE ALL DAY! RETURN HERE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!"

"But-"

-WHISTLE!

"Teach-"

-WHISTLE!

"I-"

-WHISTLE!

-WHISTLE!

-WHISTLE!

-WHISTLE~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~!

Anguish and frustration was all that could be seen on sweet Koharu's face as she started her hellish round with Kazuma around the whole school.

Sniff!

There goes my chance.

No, looking at it from a brighter perspective in a higher dimension, this is way BETTER!

If teacher catches me, we will both have to suffer, but I'm not the one who suffers the most.

I know Saki very well and how much she whines and complains when it comes to physical activities.

Ah!

This is just too perfect!

Can't wait to see her crying face!

Bwahahahahaha!

Initiate mission punishment!

Let's… GO!!!!!!!!!

She grabbed onto my wrist and said,

"Argh, what do you think you are doing? Are you trying to get us in trouble?"

Bitch, please.

"Who are you to butt in my business? My mother?"

"I know you more than anyone else and I can tell exactly what you want to do right now. As much as you don't like it, we have no choice. At least let's throw away our past just for this lesson."

Sigh, I can't believe how right she is.

"Fine."

She's right.

I need to stop this.

Better to stop acting childis-

Psyche!

Hah!

I am going to make her suffer during this lesson!

Does she think that I would stop there?

Is she stupid?

Did she somehow turn into an idiot?

If she did, then that's even better!

Haha!

Fate truly is such a wonderful twisted joke!

No, I mean in a different way this time.

Never thought I would actually think of doing this.

Get ready Saki!

"Could you let go of me now?"

Seeing my giving up response, she finally let me go as we once again recreated the distance between both of us.

And as of now I realize that I don't like how much people can predict my what I want to do like a book.

First, it was Ichinose when I was being dumb with the confession due to limerence and stopped me before I could even confess anything.

Second, its Senki that time when he mentioned Ichinose and my face straight up heated in delusions. I still regret how coy I acted there and gave myself away.

Third, it was when Mitsuki was predicting that I was lying through my eyes. I'm so glad he decided to tell me that form of error on me sooner. Who knows what he might have done to me if I didn't know about myself?

Lastly, Saki. Well, I guess it's understandable for her since we understand each other a bit too much. If she tries to do something against me, I'll always have a perfect way of retaliating back!

…

Doesn't that mean she can also do the same?

I have to correct that too.
