Chapter 15: Chapter 15

There weren't any classes today and 2 days were left until the class clash

I have no idea why they didn't announce it as yet

Sitting on the edge of my bed in my dorm room

My cellphone in my right hand, scrolling through my school emails 

I saw nothing out of the ordinary besides the usual school remainders and our class group chat was dead

As I was about to put down my phone, an email from the school came in which read 

Class Clash 1/10/2016

This will be a 5 day clash in a controlled environment

Meeting time is 7am in the school parking lot

Any late student will be left behind with a deduction of 5 class points from the final result 

So I assumed right then. An entire five days? I wonder what they could be planning

Getting off of my bed now, I tossed my phone to the side and washed my face in the sink

Another notification came in

Picking up my phone again, this time it was from Takeda telling me to met her outside my door

This girl is a strange one, she could have just knocked like a regular person.

Walking towards my door and opening it

There stood Takeda looking prettier as ever 

"Um hey can we talk?"

Fully opening the door now

"Um we are talking"

She replied in an angry tone

"You know what I mean you idiot"

Yup she's a tsundere. Am I attracted to the tsundere type? I guess maybe? Nah I like the dorodere types a bit more. Wait does that make me a messed up person?

"I'm just messing with you, what is it?"

She looked at me sharply

"Are you the Kaneko?"

Well congratulations Takeda you win the grand prize of me not fully telling you the truth

"Why do you ask?"

Takeda pushed me inside of my dorm room and closed the door behind her

So that's how the first female to enter this room would make her entrance, the world is a wild place I must say

"The ideal time to stuff the ballot box would be if you were last in the line"

"So you barged into my dorm room to accuse me based off of that? Where's your definitive proof"

Takeda scoffed at my statement

"I overheard Miss Aiko calling you Dante Kaneko"

Well that's quite the turn of events but let's see if I can bs my way out of this 

"So that's why you were so quick to exit the classroom? Never pegged you for the eavesdropping type as well. You sure are full of surprises Takeda"

Her face become annoyed now

"Just tell me the truth"

I felt a sudden rush of calmness as I took a deep breath

"Let's play a game to determine your level of critical thinking, firstly my advice is never believe everything a person says but for you I will lay out two truths and one lie. It's up to you to figure what I am lying about. My last name is Kaneko, I am your ally and I find you super attractive"

I wonder what she'll pick

Takeda paused 

"You're obviously lying about the the last one"

"Why would I lie about that when I found you attractive since day one? What if I am lying about being your ally?"

"We're in the same class, we have no choice but to work together"

"Just because two people are in a relationship doesn't mean they have each others best interest at heart. At any given time a betrayal can easily happen. So don't blindly believe everybody in class are working towards the same goal, you have to align yourself with people who want the same things as you"

She let it soak in for a while

I continued "To make things easier I'll just leave two options. My last name is Kaneko and I find you attractive"

She stayed silent 

"Which one is the lie Takeda?"

She is stubborn so she won't abandon the first option as a truth so she will dismiss the second option as a lie even though I just admitted to it

"You're obviously lying about the second option"

I sighed

"What if I am lying about the first option?"

"That's impossible, I know what I heard"

I took a seat on my computer chair and turned it towards her

"What if Miss Aiko noticed that you were eavesdropping and decided to mess with you by calling me Kaneko? The possibilities are endless in the art of being deceptive and that's what you don't get. You're too logical for your own good, you think like a robot all the time instead of outside the box. That's why your internship is a pipedream"

Takeda became furious when I said that

"What the hell do you know!?"

Staring at her seriously now 

"I know that you aren't good enough to achieve the goal by yourself and that's why you need allies but sadly the class is useless in regards to that but I can make your dream a reality"

Takeda glared at me

"So you're telling me that you're better than everybody else in there, including myself?"

Leaning my head on my hand

"What do you think?"

Takeda walked towards me and slammed her hand on my wooden computer desk

"Answer the question"

Looking at her in an unfazed expression 

"I easily made you doubt yourself with three truths and zero lies just by randomly spewing some bs advice before giving you the options. If you didn't see through that then you have no chance against the other classes"

"Wait all of them are truths?"

"Yes all of them are truths, my last name is Kaneko which you won't tell anybody about, I do find you attractive and I do consider you an ally"

Takeda glared at me again

"If you're a Kaneko then why would you assist the class to rank one, you don't need anything the school is offering. You can just twiddle your thumbs while everything falls to ruin"

Still leaning my head on my hand

"Please don't pry any further and leave it as that. I do intend for you to work for your internship though so be prepared to sell your soul to me also you should get out of here and prepare for the upcoming class clash"

Takeda glared at me once last time with her blazing eyes before she left my dorm room

After exhaling and placing my desk on the computer desk

"This girl is something else, I should mold her into an ideal candidate for class leader so we could get rid of Yogi before he sinks the class too much"

After all Yogi was just filler until the real deal is established
