103 Chapter One Hundred Three: Yu-Ki Disease
Zzzzzzzzzz…
Zzzzzzzzzzz…
Zzzzzzzzzzz…
Zzzzzzzzz–
Yami's red eyes opened.
She could see her familiar pale pink room ceiling above her.
A few seconds later, she lifted herself up from her pale pink bed and gently rubbed her eyes.
As she was doing that, a robotic male voice greeted her.
"G'morning, Master."
The robotic voice didn't belong to an actual walking robot. It belonged to the artificial intelligence on Yami's spaceship, Lunatique.
"Good morning, Luna." Yami said back.
"The usual spot again today, Master?"
"Mmmh."
"On it, Master."
Yami fell back on her bed.
She grabbed her nearby pillow and hugged it, imagining a certain misfortunate boy as she did.
Thanks to that boy, she was able to sleep soundly every time she imagined him as her pillow or herself sleeping in his 'sleep-inducing' lap.
"Also…Luna."
"Aye?"
"Please stop calling me Master. Just call me Yami from now on."
"Of course...…Yami."
Part 2:
Despite not actually being a student at Sainan High, Golden Darkness arrived to Sainan High earlier than most students.
She walked into the school with a bag of plums in her grasp.
She then made her way from the entrance of the school to her usual spot—the library.
About 6% into her journey to the library, a trio of girls smiled and waved at her.
Yami gave them a brief nod before moseying on her way.
This short interaction happened three more times during Yami's walk.
Hmmmm….
It seems that Yami was pretty popular.
…Good for her.
Anyways…
About 73-93% into Yami's trip, Golden Darkness saw a familiar-looking woman that made her eyes widen in the distance.
Due to the angle…and the way Sainan High halls were structured, Yami could see the side of the woman's face, head, torso, and legs, but the woman wouldn't be able to see her unless she snapped her neck in Yami's direction or saw her from the corner of her eye.
The women Yami saw had hair exactly like her's, green eyes, a professional black suit with a white collar shirt under it, a green booch near the collar of her white shirt, a black skirt, pantyhoes on her legs, black glasses, and black heels.
She looked like a teacher.
Yami…
Yami…
Yami…hid by entering a nearby room.
Luckily, the room only had textbooks and boxes.
The woman who Yami avoided subconsciously turned her head in the direction she heard a door quickly open and close like someone did it in a panic.
Tearju, seeing no one, continued on her way, not knowing who had just seen her.
A while after Ms. Lunatique left the area, Yami emerged from the room with her hand clasping the area her heart quickly beat.
Yami closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
She reopened her red eyes and looked over at the location where she had seen the women.
Her small hand unconsciously stretched out towards it.
Yami…
Yami…pulled her hand back…and walked back in the direction she came.
She…she would just go to the library later.
….Yeah.
That…that was fine.
Part 3:
Ms. Lunatique was quite nervous from the chip-drop silence and stares she was getting from the students as she stood in front of the class like a student who was about to give a presentation worth more than sixty nine percent of their grade.
Regardless…
She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and reopened her green eyes before letting her words out into the atmosphere.
"My name is Tearju Lunatique, and I will be your new assistant teacher for a period of time. Pleased to meet you all."
…
…
Albeit delayed, almost all the young men in Rian's second year class let out a satisfied and happy roar and cheer from their diaphragm at the same time.
"AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!/ LET'S GOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!/WOOOOOO!!!!!!!!"
Tearju jumped back like a frightened cat that just had a bell struck beside their ears.
The boys ignored her reaction and continued cheering.
One lad even took off one of his shirts, got on his chair, and started swinging it above his head in a circular motion.
They would have continued if Yui Kotegawa didn't step up to the plate with her overpowering voice instead of a baseball bat.
"Hey! Stop disrupting the class!! And you in the chair—sit down!!!
The boys…
They, uh, quieted down.
Like…almost immediately.
Even the whippersnapper who was happily swinging his shirt before Yui said something sat down and looked down like a basketball player who got benched during the first four minutes of their first game.
Some of the boys just silently shook hands with the cultured deskmates who they saw cheer with them.
"Uh…Th-Thank you…Student." Tearju said while looking at Yui.
Tearju didn't know Yui's name so she just called her student.
Yui nodded, her brows furrowed.
…
…
The classroom door suddenly opened.
Everyone, including Tearju, turned their heads towards the door.
They all saw Rian enter the classroom with his head tilted like he was trying to get a butterfly out of his ear.
"Sorry I was late." Rian said while closing the door behind him.
"It's alright, Rian. We haven't started anything yet. You can just take your seat." Tearju said, not realizing a smile had appeared on her face upon seeing Rian.
She was so grateful that Rian got Mikado to find her. Because of him, she could, possibly, rekindle her relationship with Yami again.
"Thanks."
After giving his thanks, Rian went to his seat and sat down.
Suddenly, the heads of the boys who cheered after Tearju introduced herself slammed against their desks.
A single thought passed through their heads at the same time.
'Sh-She smiled at him. It's over. There's no chance for any of us anymore.'
Later this day…
Because of Tearju's completely unintentional smile.
Word of a new 'disease' had begun.
This disease would have many names…and would eventually spread from the confines of Sainan High to different galaxies in the constantly expanding universe.
The name of this Disease?
Well, it was dubbed…
The Yu-Ki disease.
It was said that the Yu-ki disease could affect any girl.
No matter their age, religious affiliation, or type.
It was also said that it was incurable and irreversible.
Once affected by the Yu-Ki disease…even the greatest women would hit a split for Rian because of their love.
