"Isn't that Uesugi? I heard he had a war with another gang."

"S–Shh! He'll beat you up if he heard you!"

While walking toward school, Fuutarou heard rumors about him. He didn't like rumors, so he tried to find something to distract himself from them. He had once gotten into trouble due to a rumor.

"Kyaa! Uesugi-san, is so handsome!"

"Please look over here!"

There were also comments like this. This made Fuutarou almost trip himself. He looked at the girl who told him to look at her, but the moment their eyes met, she instantly avoided eye contact. "Why would you tell me to look at you then avoid me when I did?" he thought and continued walking. Unbeknownst to him, the girl's face was actually red.

"He... He looked at me! Kyaa!"

"Hey! I saw him first!"

"So what? Unlike you who only complimented him, we made eye contact!"

"What was that you bitch?"

"What did you call me!?"

The two girls started to fight, pulling each other's hair and slapping each other's faces. To the outside world, it seemed as if they had stopped being friends. However, in the future, not only did they make up, but this event actually strengthened their friendship even more. Unfortunately, this isn't their story; it's Fuutarou's. As he walked toward his classroom, a girl suddenly bumped into him.

Thud!

"Ouch... Gomenasai! Are you alright?" The girl apologized to Futarou with her hands clasped in front of her chest. She was a fair-skinned teenage girl with short, straight hair that stopped just around her neck and had a light orange hue. Her most notable accessory was a bunny ear-shaped ribbon. She had dark blue eyes, an average height, and a well-endowed figure.

"She done fucked up."

"Wait, did no one tell that girl?"

"It's the first time I saw her. I think she's a transferee."

"She's a transferee? So that's why..."

"Brothers and sisters, let's pray for this poor soul."

"She's not dead yet though?!"

"Latom."

"Wrong anime!"

Ignoring the people around, Fuutarou looked at the girl. The girl was frightened and flinched at his glare even though it wasn't a glare. She also heard the words of the other students and it contributed to her fear for him. Now that she took a look at him, he looked like one of those delinquent students she often watches on tv shows.

'I'm dead!' "P–Please don't kill me! I'm too young to die!"

"She... She really said that!"

"What a brave soul!"

"She's a goner."

"Let's pray for her."

"Latom."

"As I said before, wrong anime!"

Fuutarou opened his mouth and was about to say something when two girls who looked similar to the girl in front of him shouted.

"Yotsuba-chan!" "Yotsuba!" The two girls went beside the girl named Yotsuba. Both was also panting, probably from chasing their sister who ran away from them

"Ichika? Itsuki? Thank goodness you two are here!" Yotsuba exclaimed with beads of tears near her eyes.

"Yotsuba what's wrong?" The girl has very short hair, with a single long strand on the right side. Her hair color is white-pink. She wears a single earring in her right ear. She has dark blue eyes, an average height, and a well-endowed figure.

"Uwaaah, Ichika I'm dead." Yotsuba replied to the girl with white-pink hair, named Ichika.

"What are you talking about?" Ichika asked.

"He'll kill me!" Yotsuba said and pointed at Fuutarou. Fuutarou was in a daze; hearing their names brought back the conversation he had with his father.

-Flashback Start-

"Dad about the job Raiha told me about..."

"You probably already heard the what is the job all about from Raiha, right? Well it's true that you'll tutor and protect them at the same time."

"Protect from who?" Fuutarou asked.

"One of the major shareholders of the company, belonging to the five girls' father, wants to take over the company; the father believes that the shareholder will kidnap his daughters and use them as leverage in negotiations. The shareholder also has connections to the underworld.

"I could protect them from the shadows, but I don't think I can tutor them. You know about the rumors, right?"

"Their father doesn't care about that. As long as you tutor his daughters that's good enough for him."

"What's their names?"

"They're Quintuplets, and their names are Ichika, Nino, Miku, Yotsuba, and Itsuki. Oldest to youngest, respectively. You'll be starting tutoring tomorrow, and only tell them about the tutoring."

"Goodnight or Goodbye?" Goodnight and Goodbye were codes for the Uesugi family on how to deal with their enemies. "Goodnight" meant knocking them out, while "Goodbye" meant sending them to the afterlife.

"Goodbye."

"Got it."

With that, Fuutarou left his Father's study room.

-Flashback End-

Back to Futaro, his daydreaming was interrupted by another girl with the same face approaching him. She has reddish-orange hair colour. Her notable accessories are a pair of star-shaped hairpins near both of her eyes. Like her sisters, she has dark blue eyes, an average height, and a well-endowed figure.

"I'm sorry for what my sister has done and please forgive he– eeek!" The girl told Fuutarou but was frightened by his glance. She hid behind Ichika while Ichika tried to console her two little sisters.

"Itsuki-chan, are you crying?"

"I'm not!" The girl with red-orange hair, named Itsuki, replied to her sister.

"Really? Because I can see your eyes tearing up."

Fuutarou was about to speak when two more girls who looked like the three, came towards their location.

"Ichika, Itsuki, and Yotsuba! What's taking you long?" The girl with waist-length straight hair said.

"Huh? Aren't you the one who saved us from getting hit on yesterday?" The girl with medium-length red hair that has strands of hair hanging over the right side of her face said.

"Uesugi saved a girl from getting hit on?"

"Maybe he's not actually that bad?"

Fuutarou's mouth clicked. He's getting more attractions on himself. He decided that they would change place.

"You five. Let's go somewhere else..."

1007 words. As much as I would like to make this chapter 1500 words I couldn't. I had to prepare for school because school starts on 29. I'm learning something business related and if I suddenly wasn't able to write then it must be because of projects. Thank in advance for consideration.

Next Chapter, The calm...
