Chap 171: Anger
It's supposed to be a normal day, going on missions but the blond brat just takes it as if this were a date.
"Sensei, come on." Pleaded Gojo with puppy eyes.
"No." He said with a stern voice, "Honestly, why does a girl like you need to practice dating?"
"So I can woo any man I want." Faking all cutsie, she had a finger to her lips and swaying her hips.
"So go and ask some other boy, Hoko has free time, why not ask him out?"
"Not my type."
He sighed, this has been quite the problem for him, avoiding what could be sexual harassment from Gojo.
Just yesterday, she attempted to squish her boobs onto him by accidentally 'tripping' over nothing. And the day before she used Blue: Limitless to pull up his shirt and peek at his abs. Everything she did was for the goal of keeping this possessive closeness to Takumi.
Avoiding her is becoming increasingly hard as each day passes for him, it was like the mastery of her technique was rising just for the purpose of catching him. Capturing his mind, body and soul.
Through Gojo persisted, it was all fun and game, Takumi was familiar with her to know what was truly going on.
Being married to one possessive wife had its perks. Takumi is an adult in this dynamic they have, and he needs to keep her distance with him. Soon enough, she would give up, unless she didn't, Takumi hoped it didn't come to that.
She's been showing up at school more lately, and somehow always manages to bump into him. Acting more clingy too, thirsting for attention, especially from him.
Stepping in the car with unerring grace, Takumi had no idea when the girl learned to move like that, certainly not from him and not from her clan.
'Was Geto secretly teaching her this stuff?' It wasn't his place to find out, so he diminished it.
"Hey, check it, Sensei, we totally match now," Gojo said, showing off her tied hair. Face full of childish excitement waiting for him to make a comment.
Exactly like how Takumi does it, down to the rubber band that she used.
"Uh huh." He steps on the brake, the sudden stop causes Gojo's's face to fall, almost hitting the counter. "We're here."
*ouchie* Faking being in pain.
"What's the mission this time?"
"This place used to have people living in it but because of the sudden surge of Curse spirit, everyone has left. Rumor is there's a camera that is drawing them in, find it, bring it with us and mission is done."
"Pff, even easier than the last time uhhh at the....the...watchcamacalledit? The restaurant."
"Pizzaria." He corrected her. "If it was so easy, do it in less than an hour." He challenges her.
"Then if I do it, can I ask you out finally?"
"..." Her question only by receiving only a glare.
Off in the distance, a camp with a single house, it sat alone and broken with fog and shadow covering it. No doubt this is a special grade.
"How about telling me your type ?"
"Get your ass out of my car." He didn't wait for her to answer and just kicked Gojo's back. Her body fell forward, face stopped inches away from the ground. Floating upside down, she still has that cutsies smile plastered on her face.
"Your kicks are getting slower, Sensei." Her eyes, a beautiful blue, bore deep into his. Defying every attempt he made to set a boundary between them.
Her presence alone was sufforcating, he can feel an invisible walls closing on him. Then she threw him a cheeky smile and was gone.
Takumi let out a long sigh. This girl does not give up, actually, her frequency of occurrence of 'pranks' only grew since that night with him and Geto.
His mind wanders off, remembering what he has learned about the gate. He never played Silent Hill but judging from how the world is reacting to fogs appearing more regularly, with everyone caught in it also awakening to be a sorceress when they come out.
Either from the intense fear, contact with curses, or near-death experience. Or all three, Takumi has to be on the lookout more as these gates pop up. Like this one.
[Fatal frame's gate]
[Quest: find the camera (0/1)]
"Yo-hoo, I found it now." Gojo got the camera all tied up with sealing paper and threw it into the backseat. "Where's my kiss at?"
"Here." For a moment her body freezed and whirl around only to see Takumi's fist covering her vision.
"Ah, i'm dead." Her murmur is followed by a loud *Bang*
The trip back to school was silent, dragging from the moment they left the car and walked up those hills together.
"I'm dropping this off to the principal, you can have the rest of the day off."
"I'll be waiting in your office, Sensei."
"Don't you dare go into my office, I'll gouge your fucking eyes out, hear me!?"
She didn't hear him at all, running back to the main building with glee.
"At last some peace." The old principal didn't bother too much she just took the item. Didn't even check if it was the real one or not, it wasn't, no way Takumi would let such a thing slip from him.
"Gojo ?" He called, "Hmm, maybe she did leave this place alone." Takumi said out loud.
"Not."
[Za warudo]
Time froze, in the time stop world, Takumi saw her, that unmistakeable blue eyes hiding in the corner of his room.
'This girl.' He inwardly let out a sigh, he really does have to tell her to stop.
"Eh?" Gojo found herself confused, she sat on a chair in the room with Takumi on the opposite side of the table.
"I was planning to surprise you when you get back." She had a bright expression on her face, unlike Takumi.
"...." He wore an emotionless face, like thesurface of a lake.
"I have to tell you to stop."
"Hmp?" She tilted her head innocently, "Whatever could you mean? Sensei~" that cheeky grin never left her face even as she said those words.
