Chapter 31: Chapter 35- A Long Awaited Confrontation

I yawned a bit and stretched my arms as I looked at Minori heading back into the directions of the dorms.

There were a few moments of silence. The atmosphere felt tense as I waited to hear what Genji had to say.

Then he finally broke the silence.

"I have a question to ask you and I want you to answer it truthfully."

I sighed a bit, "Let's we walk and talk because I want to get back to my dorm room as soon as possible."

Genji with a straight face said "Before that I have the perfect place for us to have this much needed discussion."

Heh? Why is this giving me set up vibes?

I kept my cool exterior after hearing that statement.

"Yeah sure no problem.."

Genji and I were both walking towards this so called perfect location.

The school campus felt a bit dead due to the lack of students out at this time.

We did happen to pass one or two students on the way so I won't call it a complete ghost town.

After spotting a vending machine on the left of me. I made a pit stop.

Hmm what shall I have today?

My personal options were mineral water, canned coffee, green tea and possibly a fruit juice. I tried my best to limit the amount of soda I consume during a weekly basis.

The way I was looking over the options you could have sworn that the fate of the world rested on my choice of drink.

After finally making my important beverage selection and hitting the button.

*Clank*

The drink ended up in the pick-up port

Teaching my hand into the port, I grabbed and tossed it at Genji who caught it with ease.

"Thanks."

*Clank*

Another drink ended up in the same port.

This time it was mine.

I opened the can of apple juice and drank from it.

Genji cracked open his bottle of water and did the same.

I figure since he was a self proclaimed jock getting him anything other than a healthy choice maybe kind of rude.

We both stood by the vending machine enjoying our drinks.

"So how did your study session go with Minori?"

Genji lowered the plastic bottle from his lips and said "More or less how you would expect a study session to be."

"I see."

We both continued walking after that short dry conversation and then after a few minutes. We approached the center of the campus. The same place Genji engaged in a fight with the two class 1-1 students.

We approached the same place I lost the fight.

It seems like Dante still doesn't suspect anything at this point.

I motioned him with my hand to make a right and he did, following me into the exact same spot as before.

As we slowly approached it.

I asked the question that had been nibbling on the back of my mind.

"Dante, on that day when I got into that fight with the two brothers, were you observing me?"

Dante didn't react to the question in a suspicious manner but a curious one.

"Why do you ask?"

I chuckled a bit, "On that very day at that same moment, I saw you standing close to the spot but not too far away, looking on."

He stopped in his tracks, "Oh yeah, I do remember something like that. It was quite the one sided event you don't say?"

My blood started to boil but I calmed myself down.

"Where you the one who sent the video to the principal?"

He took a sip of juice out of his can, "No I wasn't. I'll be honest and say that it was the furthest thing from my mind at that moment."

I grabbed him by his shoulder and turned him so he could face me.

"So you're trying to tell me that you saw I was in trouble and didn't raise a finger to help?"

He had an unfazed look on his face even after me saying that.

"Weren't you the same person who attacked the two students first?"

I paused for a second then grabbed his shirt.

I heard enough regarding this topic.

I asked him, "Do you know that this is a blind spot due to the lack of cameras in the area and the school never bothered to fix the problem? I had to learn that the hard way."

He looked around a bit.

"No, I didn't know it was a blind spot."

I smirked a bit, "Good so now you know." then delivered a punch to his stomach.

Dante fell to the floor due to having the wind knocked out of him.

I leaned over him and grabbed his shirt then raised my fist to punch him in his face this time.

Then I saw it. His cold emotionless eyes staring at me. It was nothing like his usual warm and friendly ones.

I hesitated for a second and he must have sensed it.

"What's the matter Genji? Isn't this what you wanted to do since the day we voted in Yogi as the class leader?"

Still holding him by his shirt I said. "You know I actually tried to forgive you for that day. I almost did, you know that?"

Dante spoke in what appeared to be a harsher tone of voice " I figured you were still holding onto some grudge when you approached me during the class clash in the forest. You told me that there was no hard feelings about it but it's not in your MO to just forgive and forget. You're a sore loser remember?"

I got up from leaning over him and laughed, "So you were always expecting something like this?"

Dante got to his feet and said "That day during your scuffle with the two students. I allowed myself to be seen so that you would confront me directly instead of harboring all that malice. You were against everything I did since that election day. Even went as far as defending Yogi in front of the class when I called him out after our second time placing last in the clashes. When you know for a fact that you disliked him being leader even before he was voted in."

I looked at Dante, "You know this problem can't be fixed with a conversation right?"
