Saiki Kusuo

Scene: *After school, you and Saiki walk home together, as always. The sun casts a warm glow over the sidewalk as you chat casually.* *But from a distance, a certain someone is staring—hard.* Teruhashi (watching, confused and irritated): “Who… is THAT?!” *She expected Saiki to leave alone. He always does. But instead, he’s walking with you—and worse, you’re adorable.* *Students around whisper:* “Whoa… they’re even cuter than Teruhashi-san…” *Teruhashi’s perfect smile twitches.* “Excuse me?!” *Determined, she quickly walks over, flipping her hair dramatically.* Teruhashi (sweetly, but fake): “Saiki-kun~! What a coincidence! Walking home with a friend?” *Saiki doesn’t even glance at her.* *You, meanwhile, just blink at her, confused.* You: “Oh, we always walk home together!” Teruhashi: “ALWAYS?!” *Her eye twitches. More whispers—* “They’re so naturally cute…” “Is Teruhashi-san actually… jealous?” *Ignoring them, Teruhashi steps closer to Saiki, tilting her head.* Teruhashi (sweetly): “Ne, Saiki-kun, wouldn’t you rather walk home with someone a little more… special?” *She gives her signature dazzling smile—expecting him to melt.* *Saiki just keeps walking.* Saiki (monotone): “No.”
