บท 32: Stalking Her
For the last three days, I've been passively active in the process of stalking her. Albeit, this is something that Lilith should do, because gaining intel of a target should be her part of the work.
And during stalking her, I've met with Yasurouka on some occasions but we didn't talk, which was completely acceptable since I won't talk to a person I don't know even if he was mutual friends with my friend.
Every time we would meet, it was mostly that we would just nod at each other to acknowledge our presence. The fact that she acknowledged my presence was better than being ignored at all.
Yasurouka was indeed a tough target.
I was sipping my choco milk can while carefully trying to hide my presence in the cafeteria. Yasurouka was sitting with Kizhashi and some other girls who were from a different class. They seemed to be really friendly with each other.
She was smiling while covering her mouth with her left hand. She was a well-mannered person. By well mannered I meant that she wasn't as obnoxious as the people she used to hang out with.
Seifuku was busy with his club activities, so he wasn't with them.
"Which one?" I heard a familiar voice ask a question that was meant for me.
I glanced at Yukimura standing beside me with a grin on his face. "Hmm… I don't know." I said, while narrowing my eyes at him.
"Ehh?" His confusion was visible on his face.
I just gave him a shrug and smiled. Since he knew me as someone who wasn't interested in love, a vague answer would be better than a direct one.
"Anyways, I'm going to my club so see you later." He walked off and waved at me. I gave him a nod.
Now that I am alone, I can focus on the points that I got to know from stalking her.
She wasn't as extroverted as I assumed her to be. She was a bit introverted. To be specific, she conversed with many people. She would never give in with their flow. She was more of an ambivert person.
Even if she is in a group, she wouldn't start a conversation. But if she was to take part in one, she would actively do that. That means if I want to talk with her, I would've to take the initiative of the conversation.
Also, she always comes to school alone but walks back home with Seifuku and Kizhashi. It was a bit weird since she must feel like a third wheel between them. But from what I've observed, both of them never act in a way to make Yasuouka feel like she was interrupting them.
From that I could conclude that she was really close friends with Kizhashi. Because I don't think anyone would want a third person always hanging around their partner. If they had that level of understanding, then they must be good friends.
As for Seifuku, he wasn't friends with Yasurouka at first. I assumed that Kizhashi introduced her to Seifuku as a mutual friend. Because during the start of highschool, Seifuku used to talk with me and Yukimura, so I knew about his interaction with girls.
He was a handsome guy, which resulted in him getting an unwanted amount of attention from girls as soon as the school year started.
I also noticed that she likes to study a lot. She genuinely enjoyed studying, which surprised me because I'm so lazy that I don't enjoy studying. That's why my score was consistently 85%. Her score, on the other hand, was always among the range of 93-97%.
Sometimes, she would visit the school library in her free time to complete her assignments.
Today was one such day, when our biology teacher had given us some homework and if my assumptions were correct, Yasurouka would visit the library in the last period since it's a free period. Knowing Kizhashi, I know she would just pass up on the plan of studying in the library.
So there is no one who can hinder this upcoming event unless it's Yasurouka herself. Now all I have to do is wait and observe how this event unfolds.
The remaining periods after lunchtime passed pretty quickly except the maths period, which felt like an eternity.
The bell rang for the last period. We all stood up and bowed as the teacher left the class. This was a free period so everyone was talking to each other and the noise of their chatting soon filled the classroom.
It was really hot so I untucked my shirt. In our school, untucking the shirt wasn't a big deal since it wasn't a violation of any disciplinary action.
On top of that, it's the last period, who cares?
I looked over at Yasurouka's desk and noticed her getting up, leaving with her bag on her shoulder.
She was talking with Kizhashi back and forth. Seems like both of them were trying to convince the other to follow them. In the end, Kizhashi pouted and Yasurouka had a smug look on her face. She poked her cheeks and then left the class.
I slowly got up and left the class. Knowing that she was heading to the library, I took another route instead of following her. Since it would be suspicious for me to follow her.
Well, after stalking her for three days, I'm already suspicious enough.
I walked up to the library, which was on the top floor. I entered the library but I don't know if she has arrived yet or not. The aroma of books hit my nose. I glanced over at the entire library, but it seemed quite empty today.
I walked over to the librarian's desk, but he wasn't there. The possibility of the library being closed as of the last period ran through my mind and I quickly discarded it since it made little sense.
If the library was indeed closed for the last period, then there would be noticed outside the door. I walked around the shelves while waiting for Yasurouka to arrive.
