Since someone was waiting for me, I left the platform and out of the train station.
On my way out, there were still a lot of students from their school coming to the train station to ride it home. And because of my different uniform, I became someone they ogle at before continuing on their way.
Though some of them were my schoolmates before, I never really had any contact with anyone aside from the girls I stole and some others who I got to know just for the sake of the conquest.
As soon as I left the premises, I immediately saw who's waiting for me, from afar, she was being surrounded by other male students who were trying to talk to her but all of them were being ignored as her eyes were trained at the exit of the station.
That's why our gazes instantly met upon exiting the train station. Even from where I was, I saw how her face lit up before an enchanting smile fell upon her lips.
She brushed off the male students surrounding her and walked towards me with large strides as her pigtailed-hair swayed along with the breeze which passed by.
Though she exuded the innocence one would see on most high school girls, the way she carried herself is part clumsy and part graceful. At every step she made, it radiates the brightness of her smile.
She's still wearing their school uniform but her bag wasn't in her hands. Most likely, she left it back at the school. There's something she's carrying in her hand though, a cloth bag.
I talked to her regularly on Messenger but even then, I didn't think she would still be like this after what I did to her before.
But yeah, that's one of the things I liked about her.
Sakuraba Yua.
"Ruki!"
Yua called out my name before she stopped a few steps away from me. At least unlike when I saw Aoi and Ria before, this girl managed to restrain her excitement as she handed me the cloth bag she was holding.
"Yua, sorry for taking this long to meet you. This is?"
I smiled and said before reaching my hands to the bag.
Yua shook her head and placed the bag on my palm.
"Wear that first, you will be the center of attention if you go inside the campus in your uniform."
I brought the bag near me and peeked at what's inside, there's a long sleeves winter uniform inside it.
"Since the pants are almost the same, just the top is enough to disguise you."
Yua continued as she cutely giggled at the end.
"I see. Is this why you're ignoring me? You already have a boyfriend?"
Suddenly, from behind her, one of the male students trying to talk to her came up and asked in a somewhat inquisitive tone.
He's probably a senior and a third-year at that due to the signifier on his collar being different from what I saw from Yua and the Yae's school uniform.
He eyed me from bottom to top before deeming that I'm lesser than him. Well, true, he certainly has the looks but even with that question, Yua's eyes remained on me.
"Hey. Listen to me when I'm talk--!"
When he was ignored again, he tried to grab Yua's shoulder but I cut him off by slapping his hand away and pulling her next to me.
I turned my gaze to him and that somehow made him gulp his words down. I don't know what kind of expression I put on his face but yeah, seeing how he was about to grab her shoulder, my arms moved by themselves.
Seriously, this guy. How did he even have the gall to demand attention when he was already ignored the first time? At least save some dignity.
Is it because he's good looking that he thought every girl had to give him their attention?
Well, there are some who always put on a kind smile and act like a good boy to gain admirers but this guy is different. It seems like his ego has been hurt.
Ah. He's just a minor nuisance this time but if continued, he should say goodbye to his dignity as a senior.
"I'm her boyfriend, what about it? Are you blind?"
Upon hearing my words, he flared up and was about to retort but when he noticed that the passersby's attention was all on him, his face became red as he gulped his anger down again. After that, he turned around after leaving a hateful glare.
"Wow. If it was before, I would never imagine you saying that, Ruki."
Yua said while clapping softly as she stared at the back of that senior. Only now when he's not looking anymore did she give him a glance.
"I know. If it was before, I would've pulled him in that alley and beat him up."
"Pfft. I knew it. Then let's go and get you changed into that."
Yua laughed at my answer before pulling me by the arm to go back inside the train station.
Five minutes later, I finished changing to it and I now look like one of their students.
"There. This one suits you best, why did you even choose a different school? Now it's hard to see you."
Yua excitedly circled around me as she inspected my new look with their uniform on.
"I already told you the reason. Anyway, is that guy from earlier someone you know?"
If it is then it's bound for her to encounter that guy again. Though I'm confident that she would just ignore him again, that guy might do something drastic if his buttons got pushed too far.
"Un. A senior from the same club. I already turned him down once but he kept trying to talk to me so I decided to ignore him instead. As you can see, he's the persistent type."
Yua nodded and answered with the tone of not caring about the guy.
"I see. You should take care. That type of guy is the one who will not stop until he gets what he wants."
"You're here now and you told him you're my boyfriend. If he still wanted his pride, he would stop."
"This girl… Did you forget how I stole you from your boyfriend?"
Though I wouldn't say it's easy, it was also not hard. When I first saw her, it was during the Music Class where every class took it at the same time due to having not enough teachers to teach it. Besides, there are not many lessons to it. It's much better to join a specific club to learn more.
During that Music Class, Yua was someone who was very good at singing and if I have to say, she has the qualities of an idol. Back then, her boyfriend was also someone who's very good at singing so they often duet together. She was already a fashion model back then. Of course, it's not of the sexy kind but schoolgirl fashions. I never asked her what she wanted to do nor do I care about it before.
The chance to steal her came when we were paired up randomly during one of the activities for that class. It was just one time but I used that as a foundation to slowly learn more about her.
Neither Yae nor Haruko was still not with me back then. She's an earlier conquest than them so I had to do everything by myself. By creating coincidences for us to meet to manipulating photos of her boyfriend showing how he was friendly with the other girls.
It's standard, yes and she didn't fall for that at all due to her trust in him.
However, one small incident pulled us to be closer and from there, it's a downhill slope.
Remembering it now, I guess it was really hard to separate her from him. I don't know. That guy being a popular one also helped me. He's somehow like Ogawa but the difference is, those girls were just his fan and not really trying to steal him from Yua.
"The two of you are different from each other. It's impossible for the likes of him to do what you did."
"Somehow, I feel like your confidence in me is too high."
For her to still be this confident, I wonder what did I do for her? I couldn't remember it well. Most likely it's something I've done without thinking about how it would affect her again.
When I got Yae and became entangled with Haruko, my time with her became less than when I was trying to steal her.
"I experienced it so I know. Well then, let's go?"
"Alright, lead the way."
I nodded and let her walk first but a few steps later, Yua stopped and turned her head back to me.
"Wait, I forgot something."
"What is it?"
"This."
With a smile, she stepped forward and pushed my back to the wall before putting her lips over mine. Without waiting for me to respond, her tongue already moved in and caught mine. From the way she kissed me, she's trying to apply what I taught her before.
Soon enough, I started responding to her as I circled my arms around her and moved onto the offensive by sucking her tongue instead. From her tongue, her lips then down to her neck, Yua accepted it all while the fires of excitement could clearly be seen in her eyes.
A minute later, we separated after one last passionate kiss. After that, like a happy puppy, she obediently stood there as I wiped the traces of my saliva on her neck with my handkerchief
"Un. Even the way you kiss and your aftercare is different now. But it's not in a bad way. Compared to your almost non-expressive face from before, this is better. I'm glad I won that raffle. I missed you, Ruki"
Ending it with an 'ehehe' laugh, Yua grabbed and embraced my arm as we started walking out of the train station.
