Stealing Spree

Chapter 509: Mine

Although my girls already knew that I would be riding Shio’s car to go to school, I still told Shio to drop me near the train station instead of risking it somewhere near the school.

After kissing Shio once more, I left her car and watched her drive in the direction of the school.

I had reminded her to always check whether that Nobuo would follow and fortunately, he hadn’t shown up in front of her yet ever since that meeting they had where she got his signature for their divorce papers.

As for Nao… he’s also nowhere to be seen during the past few days ever since she reported him.

But I couldn’t be complacent. Even if I became like a broken clock, I continued reminding Nao and Shio to take care and immediately tell me if they saw him within their vicinity.

As long as there’s no ruling about that report yet or that guy truly made himself disappear, I wouldn’t be able to relax when it comes to Shio and Nao’s safety.

Naturally, I was also wary of my surroundings, I was the one holding a piece of more damning evidence against him. If he showed up then I would not hesitate to confront him again and settle everything by then.

Too bad, I probably overestimated his capabilities. If he’s nowhere to be seen, he’s most likely trying to think of a way out of the mess that Nao brought down on him.

True, he had something, either a gun or a knife, in his car compartment back when I first confronted him but… I managed to demoralize him and I’d given him a choice.

If he followed that, then he could still live somewhere far away and start anew. However, he kept on stalking Nao… and that resulted in the current situation.

What I’m truly worried about is… if he ends up being too desperate and makes a desperate move. It won’t happen immediately but human minds are inherently fickle. When he reaches the point of thinking that he is about to hit a dead end, that’s when he will make a drastic move.

That’s why I asked Nao to live with us for a week. During that week, I am planning to look for him myself instead of waiting for him to show up.

Haa… I don’t know what will be the end result but… I am ready to do anything for all of my girls.

When Shio’s car disappeared from my field of vision, I waited five minutes before also moving towards the 4th High School.

Because of my… undeserved popularity, the other first-years who I ended up encountering during that few minutes of walk were all pointing at me.

Some of the girls even went to ask me if I was the one they’re hearing about from the rumors; Kinoshita-sensei or Shiori-sensei’s Pet.

There were also some boys who thought I could be someone easy to talk to. However, what they received was just my dry replies.

Due to that, they also immediately lose interest.

Today, apart from the 1st years and their Class Advisors, no one should be at the school.

However, before I reached the school gates, I saw Shizu from the corner of my eye and that immediately made me stop in my tracks.

She appeared from the direction of the bus station.

She was standing alone, with her eyes fully focused on me. Furthermore, she’s wearing her school uniform, unlike me or any other 1st year students.

Because of that, Shizu instantly became the center of attention of all the first years walking towards the school.

And being the popular Student Council President and the one they saw at the Opening Ceremony, most of the first years who saw her recognized her.

Those near her stopped and greeted her while those a distance away bowed towards her in acknowledgement.

However, with Shizu’s eyes trained on me, I also became another brilliant thing that was gathering the 1st year students’ attention.

“Asakura-senpai and Shiori-sensei’s pet. Is there something going on between them?”

“Who knows? But look, he stopped his feet and also looked at her. Doesn’t that look fishy?”

“What are you talking about? He became part of the Student Council. They visited our club last Friday. I think he’s some kind of Secretary for Asakura-senpai or just a lackey.”

“Is that true?”

“Yes. Our club was also visited.”

With that kind of conversation going on around them, our relationship somehow became cleared of any suspicion.

Perhaps if I hadn’t followed her back then, their first suspicion would become the truth in their eyes.

That’s why to act the part, my feet moved and I ended up in front of her.

I straightened my back before bowing in a 45-degree angle towards her. “President, good afternoon.”

I raised the volume of my voice to let the others hear it to firmly set in stone that I am part of the Student Council.

Without any changes in her expression, Shizu eventually nodded and said two words, “Follow me.”

Under the eyes of everyone, including even some of my classmates, I respectfully followed her as we passed through the school gates and towards the direction of the Club Building.

On the way, I’d already seen where our class along with the other classes was gathering but because she asked me to follow her, I didn’t falter in my steps even though we got everyone’s attention.

And from behind me, the same conversation as earlier began.

Perhaps after this day or at this moment, I’d gain another title…

The Student Council’s lackey.

Although I’d also seen Nami, Aya, Rae and Hina already among those in our class, I could only nod to them and our other classmates as I continued to follow Shizu inside the Club Building.

Without saying any words, Shizu continued on her steps as she began to ascend the stairs, or set of stairs leading to the floor where the Student Council Room is located.

Her feet only stopped when we reached the front of the Student Council Room.

Understanding her intention, instead of asking her, I grabbed the doorknob and pushed the door open for her.

Shizu waited until it was fully opened before a slight smile peeked out of her lips as she stepped inside the room.

However, on the way in, Shizu reached for my hand, clasped it tightly with hers and pulled me inside with her.

As soon as the door closed behind me, Shizu turned around and smirked. “What do you think?”

I could feel a very proud aura exuding out of her.

This girl… what she did was flaunting her power that… she could take me with her anytime.

Moreover, she showed everyone that… I somehow belonged to her.

And it’s in line with what she wanted to happen.

She’s aware that I would be able to deduce her intention.

And that’s the reason why that’s the first thing she asked me.

What do I think?

“Un… my Shizu deserved a praise.” I smiled and patted her head.

“Today, I made you mine. In most of the 1st year student’s eyes, you’re mine. Not Shiori-sensei’s pet. Not Nami’s boyfriend. Not anyone’s boyfriend. Mine” Shizu proudly declared while totally enjoying my head pats.
