False/True Love 7: Something's Fishy

-*[]*-[]-*[]*-

.


It's been one week since the so called confession happened. Onodera still have the smile she had since that day and still trying to convince her that what happened between Raku and Chitoge is nothing but a joke, while Raku is in the middle of confusion about Chitoge and his confessions. Why is he even thinking about it? He should be thinking about his and Onodera's confessions. He doesn't know why. All he knows is; he is so confuse for answering Chitoge's confession in a way like he really meant it, because of that he is getting confuse. And why does Chitoge had to ride on in his suppose to be joke challenged. Tch! On the other hand, Chitoge is still the same, nothing more, and nothing less.

Let me correct that - because for the whole week, it looks like Chitoge is always making Raku and Onodera to be alone together. The two of them doesn't even notice it yet, but the glasses buddy already did notice this action of Chitoge.

Is she playing a cupid or what?

"Hey Chitoge let's go. You promise me you'll teach me in english today after class." Raku called to get her attention when all their classmates are gone.

"Huh? Today?" She innocently responds that made Raku's forehead knot.

"That's right! Why? You forgot?" Raku asked in disbelief. This girl is really forgetful. He can't believe it. He sigh then asked her, "Now that you remeber, let's just go."

"Ah... Eh... Actually Raku, I have important matters to do today." Chitoge hesitantly answered.

"What? How important that matters to forget my favor?" Once again, he sighs and sat beside Chitoge. Why is feeling so frustrated? And why does he feel like that gorilla girl is distancing herself to him. Is she? He thought and glance a look at her.

"More important than you." Chitoge whispered, too bad Raku heard it and it made his eyebrow rise. Even though it made him feel a sudden pain he tried to ignore what she said.

"What now? Tomorrow is our english exam. I'm having a hard time understanding the lessons I want you to teach me." He annoyingly said while ruffling his hair in frustration. He's having a hard time because that time, when they are having a lesson in English, he is in the cloud nine of confusion. It's Chitoge's fault. She's responsible why he is having a hard time understanding most of their lessons _

Because of the frustration that Raku is showing to Chitoge, she tried to think a way to help Raku. But she really can't help him now. She can't be his tutor. She really has some important things to do. Continue thinking what to do, her eyes caught Onodea and Ruri. What's more? They are also talking about their english subject that currently Raku's problem. Chitoge smiled.

"I know!" Chitoge happily said that caught Raku's attention. She still has that beautiful smile in her face. That smile again. Why can't he just take his eyes off of her face every time she smiles happily? It always makes him mesmerize by that smile and becuase of that smile he also always gets a smack on his head. Tch!

"That hurt! What are you saying you know?" He irritatedly asked while massaging the part of his head that Chitoge smacked. Why is her smile so mesmerizing anyway? Urg! It's always getting in his way of affection with her.

"Kosaki-chan~" Chitoge shouted and that caught all their friends attention. The moment she called out her name Raku already felt nervous. And the moment she called Onodera, Ruri and Shu already knew that there's plan running on her mind once again.

"What is it Chitoge-chan, do you have a problem?" The first question that Onodera asked and drew herself to the couple's desk.

"Oh! I don't have a problem, but Raku has." Chitoge answered truthfully while tapping Raku's right shoulder.

"What's the p-problem I-Ichihou-kun?" Onodera shyly asked but happy to know that she can be helpful to Raku.

"No! No! No! It's nothing O-Onodera." Raku denied in shyness. He is feeling shy not because of knowing that he can be with Onodera. And why would he be shy, if it's with Onodera he would be really happy. But now is different. The reason why he feels shy is because of thinking of what happened in their confession play.

"It's like this Kosaki-chan, Raku wants you to teach him about the lessons in our English subject, is it okay with you?" Chitoge fist asked her permission just to make sure.

"It's fine with me. But I think you are the one who can teach him effectively, Chitoge-chan." Even though she wants to be the one to help Raku, she's still say what she think. She tucked in the strands of her hair in her ears at smile.

"And that's the problem, I have important matters to do, that's why... you are the only one I know to help him. Bye!" She hurriedly get her bag and run away from them.

Onodera tried to shout back at her but she is already gone and she even ignored her. When Chitoge is gone, Shu and Ruri excuse themselves with them too while Tsugumi is already outside waiting for Chitoge.

Whatever Chitoge is planning, Ruri is in favor of it. Especially that the plan is involves getting Onodera close with Raku. But... what is she really thinking? Doesn't she like Raku? Because somehow she felt that she likes Raku - no, her instinct says that she likes Raku. When those confessions happened, she is sure that her instinct is right. But maybe - hopefully - her instinct is wrong. She wonders, did she figure out that Kosaki and Ichijou has something? Isn't she an insensitive girl? How did he found out? Did she notice? How? Does Tsugumi know too?

Too many questions but only Chitoge can answer it.
