THE REELING
A Fanfic by Takagi
Author's note: I'm sorry for the last inconvenience things!
But don't worry. I'm not gonna end this fic that way!
To celebrate Tenri's new Anime (OVA) I'm updating this fic.
Words in italic are an inner thought.
Chapter 5: "Our Lives at Maijima City"
"I want to clear up things, Tenri!" Keima shouted at Tenri, an unusual behavior for a super genius student who doesn't talk much in his daily life.
Tenri rose up from her position then gazed upon her childhood friend, still shocked by his arrival, "W- What do you mean by "clear up things", Keima-kun? Is there anything that needs to be cleared?"
"Huh.
"For me, a cool intelligent person who wouldn't want to do too much mobility, is soaked in sweat, chasing after you? Of course there is something that needs to be done, Tenri!" Keima clenched his fist.
"Then, what is it?"
"… Tenri"
Keima moved his tired legs towards Tenri who is standing 6 (stairway) steps from him. Tenri who acts all cool just now, is unconsciously flustered. Keima ascended the stairs further towards her as Tenri taking a step back.
"Keima-kun?"
"Before I clear up things with you, I have a question."
They are now facing each other.
Two figures, boy and girl, standing in front of an apartment room.
"W-What is it? And… and why is Keima-kun approaching me?
"A… Aren't we too close?" Tenri hide her blush by looking away from Keima, who is at the moment has his face in front of Tenri's.
"Answer me, Tenri. Why do you keep my secrets from Kanon and other girls?"
"Eh?"
"I thought you are angry about me getting along with those girls."
"No. I'm not angry, Keima-kun, although I never fancy this activity of yours"
"Lies"
"No."
"That is absolutely a lie." Keima crossed his arms.
"Well, no.
"… Keima-kun… I'm keeping your secret from everyone because we are childhood friends…"
"That's all. There… there are no special meaning behind", Tenri said as she closed her eyes.
"You said it yourself before we came here…
"That you've been looking at me all this time secretly and suddenly see me playing around with other girls. If what you said is true, then, I can assume that you've been very angry since back then, during our senior time, when I conquered my first girl, A..."
"Ayumi.
"Takahara Ayumi. After that, you conquered Kanon-chan, and then when our field trip to Odayaka district, you conquered…"
"So it's true..." Keima cut in.
"… I am always being honest about my feelings.
"I'm not going to be angry at you because of that.
"If I am, I've been doing it since that time, Keima-kun."
"What do you mean by that time?" Keima's eyes widened as he heard Tenri's remark.
Tenri took a deep breath to reduce her pain as she tried to rip her already-buried-deep-inside-her-heart memories to bring it out once again, "Right…"
"You maybe didn't realize it because you never even took a glance at me…
"15 August, three years ago… When an incident happened and made me moved into your school…"
"Did something crucial happen that time? I don't really remember…"
…
"You don't realize it do you, Keima-kun?"

FLASHBACK, 3 YEARS AGO
August, 15th
Maijima City
A 17-year old Keima, and 16-year old Elsie and Haqua, who shared a very same school, Maijima Private High School, always went school together when they were senior students. Just like that day, the three of them were walking together when suddenly their mysterious neighbor, Ayukawa Tenri, greeted them, "Keima-kun, Elsie-san, Haqua-san, good morning"
"Oh. Tenri-san!"
"Morning, Tenri-san!"
"Hm."
"Geez, nii-sama! You should greet her back!"
"That brother of yours is just like that, Elsie.
"Ugh. He looks so retarded, playing his PFP when he is walking like that. Hey Katsuragi! What if you crash into someone?"
Upon hearing his European-childhood-friend's question, Keima gazed at her and answer arrogantly, "I couldn't careless! It's their problem. Besides, I won't collide into anyone if I walk with the two of you next to me. So shut up and let me play!"
He stunned the trio, making them took a deep breath in unison.
"Tenri-san, are you free this weekend?" The younger Katsuragi asked Tenri.
"Yes, I am. Why do you ask, Elsie-san?"
"Nii-sama and I are planning to go swimming! Do you wanna come along?"
"Swi… Swimming?
"By the way, what about Haqua-san?"
"I can't. I… I have something to do!
"Anyway, just go with him, Tenri-san! I'm sure that you want to!"
"Too bad, Haqua-san…
"Okay then, Elsie-san. I think I will!"
"Thank you, Tenri!" Keima suddenly turned his head towards Tenri. "If you are coming with Elsie, then I don't have to accompany her!" He added. "I actually only agreed to go with her since my mom threatened me to!"
"Uuh… So that's why you…
"I thought you are going to accompany me for real!"
"You are filthy, Katsuragi!
"Elsie, let me come along too. I won't let him escape!"
"Really?
"But how about your business, Haqua?"
Haqua clenched her fists, "Don't worry. I'll get it done afterschool!"
"Yayyy! So it will be the four of us!"
"Hey! I'm not going, you hear me?!
"I will make sure that I will be very sick on the day. So sick that I can't even move my legs! If you understand, don't count me in!" Keima yelled at his sister.
"It will be fun, Keima-kun. Let's join them!" Tenri said with a bright smile.
Shame for her, Keima answered it with gloomy expressionless face. "NO. I want to conquer this game… UAGH!" he shouted and suddenly felt Haqua's mighty fist on his cheek.
"And I thought I already said that I won't let you escape!"
They came into an intersection. Tenri realized it and said, "Ah. This is as far as I can go with you all… Thank you for inviting me to go swimming with you all."
"Okay, Tenri-san! Thank you for willing to go with me this weekend!"
"Take care, Tenri-san!"
"Tenri", the older Katsuragi called the girl with big ribbons on her head.
"K… Keima-kun?"
"Be careful", said he, without taking his eyes off of his PFP.
"Ri… Right… Thank you...
"See you later, Keima-kun."
"Yeah."
Tenri walked her legs, leaving her childhood friends and neighbors to her school. Tenri turned around to see them again.
It turned out that the three of them were already continued their walking to Maijima Private High School.
After thinking back what had just happened, Tenri couldn't help but giggling on her way to her school.
"Fufu… This is going to be fun...!" Tenri thought.

Author's note: Thank you for reading. Sorry for this few and late update.
I will continue this fic and doing my best for it.
I was orignally thinking to end this fic since it doesn't have as many readers as other fics.
That's why i thought that maybe this kind of story isn't really wanted by TWGOK fanfiction fandom readers (Shame on me. maybe my story itself is bad)
Special thanks to Karl The Gross for always be here to support this fic.
I wouldn't continue this fic if it weren't because of him.
Another note: This story is open for a beta reader.
