"h-h-hey!", he called out to me.

What can I say, I'm disappointed. I'm very much utterly disappointed.

In fact, I'm so disappointed to the point its infuriating! Among all people my luck has to give me it considered giving me this?

Is this a sick joke?

Inori, you said I was lucky, didn't you?

How can I be lucky with what's in front of me?!

"Oh, its just you!", I unconsciously let that slip out.

As unfortunate as I hate to admit it, I know him. In fact, I bet there's no second year or third year to boot that doesn't know him.

Takemoto Sakurai, the panty chaser.

He also goes by many disgusting titles to mention so I will not get deeper into that but I deduced a single meaning which is portrayed by all of them.

Man-whore!

I don't know but I heard that he has the guts to confess to a girl at first sight.

How resilient.

Talk about a gentleman.

But most of his reputation was induced by Akari. I still remember that scene as clear as day as it is still fresh in my mind. To be precise, its still fresh in everyone's mind.

I mean it was a hot topic for a whole month.

Damn girl Akari, you were really ruthless that day. Especially when everybody was watching.

Even I felt bad for this guy.

Truth be told, I had already decided. I didn't want anything to do with this guy not even as a friend. I have more than enough guy friends on my friendzone list who are hoping to get closer to me.

'Sorry but that's just the way it is okay!'

I apologized in my heart.

He has already diminished my attraction towards him to zero without even doing anything.

Just look at him.

He's definitely checking me out isn't he. Urgh, just look at him, what did I tell you, his eyes are licking all over me, talk about gross.

Turns out he's the type I hate the most.

Talk about making a bad impression at first sight, he must be a pro.

"...!" He couldn't find the next words he could come up with.

Did I perhaps show it too much on my face?

'So I'm next on his list, huh!'

How uninteresting.

He should at least have had something to say prepared beforehand no matter how silly it is.

It's just the etiquette of doing these things properly.

Even if they have no proper form!

"So what's up."

Since I decided to make things more easier for him, I broke the gloomy awkward atmosphere as I was approaching him.

Guess I'll just be friendly with him for a little while as compensation for deciding not to get involved with him after today. I think I'll just play with him for a little while.

It wont hurt to tease him a little bit.

The story has been stolen; if detected on Amazon, report the violation.

"Long time no see, heh-heh-heh." He said as he scratched his cheek while awkwardly looking away.

'Am I looking at a man right now?'

'Cause it hell as sure feels like I'm talking to a beta male.'

'Long time no see? Is that a way to talk to a girl you've never even met.'

I could definitely see that his whole face was flushed red and I knew exactly where this was headed.

'I knew it. So it was a confession after all. I wonder how I should reject him!'

'Will I get an interesting enough reaction?'

"I don't believe we have ever met before." I replied bluntly whilst I tilted my head a bit to the left. Oh, and it's natural reflex for people who have a lot of friends.

NATURAL!

"Sorry about that."

I seriously can't believe I'm talking face to face with the worst beta male I have ever seen in my entire life.

Even movies do not exaggerate to this level!

What's with the apology? Now I'm confused.

"Why apologize all of a sudden?" I wanted to know the reason behind his apology.

"Ummm….cause it just felt right for some reason."

That's it. I hate this guy.

"And what reason might that perhaps, be?"

Clearly I'm frustrated.

"I'm afraid I can't tell you that!"

This guy is impossible. The more I'm talking with him the more my stomach hurts.

"Why not?"

"Because…."

"Because…?"

"Because you're cute!"

I was at a loss for words. If maybe he was my type or probably handsome my heart would've skipped a beat. But he's just… too normal for comfort.

Sorry beta, you may have tried your best but that's not enough to get my heart racing. But I have to give him props for trying, he really caught me off-guard there.

'He's apologizing to me because I'm cute! That's a new one. And you don't call a girl is cute without introducing yourself first.'

"Ehh!!!" I didn't even realize that that had escaped my mouth.

Does he think I'm easy?

I bet he doesn't even know the first thing about girls.

"Did I say something wrong?"

'Of course you said something inappropriate. Gosh I'm getting a minor headache from just these few words with this. And it hasn't even been ten minutes out here.'

"No, you didn't. I just figured out that you are someone dangerous after what you just said." I stopped dead in my tracks as I hesitated to come close to him.

Just how severe would my headache be when I come close, I wonder. Look here, I'm already sweating like hell despite the cool breeze trying to cover it up.

I bet he took that statement as a joke!

"You think I'm d-a-n-g-e-r-o-u-s." He emphasized on the dangerous part as if I had struck a chord.

I was right.

'Yeah, you're dangerous! I bet you want to lick this sweat off of me, don't you?'

"Don't take it personal okay. You just looked that way and said that way." I tried to laugh off that unfunny joke of his.

Akari, I think I now feel what you felt.

"Looked what way?"

"I said its nothing personal okay. Sorry."

I said as I clasped my both my hands together and lowered my head. I feel bad for the way I was criticizing him inside my head. For a moment I thought I was a villain.

Who knows, maybe I am bullying him too much by exaggerating with my thoughts.

But let me make my point clear that I don't like him. I then peered at him with puppy dog eyes knowing full well he would fall for it.

I mean, he's a fucking beta so…

I'm deceitful I know that, but who has the time to care about that anyway?

"Sorry about that."

"You apologizing again!!"

Now I'm like, seriously.

Does he know nothing else to talk about other than to blatantly apologize every single time. This might be another reason why nobody wants to go out with him.

Not that, any sane girl would anyway.

"Sorry, I guess it's just out of habit."

'At least try to say you'll fix it than remaining like that. Huh! Did he just say sorry again. Now I feel like he's trying to get on my nerves.'

"And again!!!" I exclaimed as I was now clearly showing him how frustrated I had become.

"I'm sorry I'll try not to do that again next time! I promise!!!" He bowed his upper part of his body whilst his hands were pressed firmly on his body.

Well, at least he seems to be enjoying himself so I must have done a pretty good job.

Good job me!

Too bad he's the only one finding all this funny and too bad he wasted all his efforts on me.

Now its time to get serious. I don't want to waste any more time than I already have on this guy.

I think I'm gonna puke.

"Okay, enough games. If that's all, I guess I should be taking my leave now." I said as I spun around to go back.

"W-wait a sec…" he desperately called.

'Is he really that desperate!'

"I'm waiting a sec…" I replied with a sarcastic tone of my own.

"So about the reason why I called you here..."

'Now here's where the shit gets real.'

Truth be told from the moment I first saw him I've been waiting for this opportunity.

I just don't have the time to sit and wait around for a half-baked confession. Especially if it is from HIM!

"Look if you're about to confess to me right now, I suggest you drop it." I told with a tone clearly showing how serious I was.

Time seemed to pause for the both of us at this very moment. I waited for a reply but I could clearly see the shock on his face.

Serves you right!

Nice reaction though!

I think I'm gonna enjoy this. Seems like he thinks he must have dreamt it since he's still in a daze.

"Perhaps you didn't hear what I just said. I said 'I suggest you drop what you are about to do.'"

"Ehh!?!"

Am I enjoying that shocked expression?

Yes!

Ncaaw, just look at him, isn't he just cute.

Nah, too bland.

Have I ever enjoyed turning someone down this much?

I perhaps think that this may be the first time.

No!

Maybe it's because I turned him down without giving the poor guy the chance to confess his poor feelings.

Instead of feeling pity for the guy I just feel jubilant for some reason.

Am I sadistic?

Maybe!

So what if I am?

That's just how I genuinely feel.

Its not like I can magically change the way I feel.
