Stealing Spree-Novel

Having decided what we’re going to do, I had Saki sit on one of the chairs around the table in the middle of the room before I opened the door to let the silent guy enter.

He stared at me for a moment upon seeing the doors open before him. Nevertheless, he stepped inside hurriedly, his eyes immediately went to search for Saki.

When he saw her sitting comfortably there, despite the girl’s unamused expression, the silent guy’s complexion glowed brighter.

He’s too easy to read.

Whatever. He can continue admiring her but…

Before he could even take a step towards her, I grabbed his shoulder and tightened my grip, stopping him from continuing.

… There’s no way I’d let him approach her when I’m around.

He should become one of those guys who’d be content at admiring their crush at a distance. If not then he’d push himself to a bout of suffering like what Ogawa went through.

“I let you enter the room. But where do you think you’re going?” I laced my voice with a silent threat.

Last Sunday, he caught us but we never explained anything to him. Rather than that, we lost him in that neighborhood before running back to the school and hiding there.

The day after that, the guy neither confronted us nor told anyone what he witnessed. He kept it all to himself while throwing slight hostility towards me.

According to Saki, he’s capable of speech. He’s just choosing not to.

Besides, he wouldn’t reach high school if he couldn’t.

“Alright, you chose that path. Maintain your silence then. What you saw last Sunday is true. Saki is my girlfriend.” I released my grip on his shoulder and patted it.

He reacted by trying to sweep my hand away. However, he’s too late. I pulled it away after one pat as I made my way to Saki.

When our eyes met, we nodded to each other, confirming what we’re going to do next.

I stopped in front of her and stretched my arm forward. Saki flashed a beautiful smile and while intentionally letting the guy behind me see it, she took my hand and stood up.

I immediately pulled on her hand, put it on my shoulder and placed my hand behind her. Although we looked like we’re about to dance, that’s not the aim.

I reversed our position. I sat down on the chair while stringing her along.

By the time we finished, Saki was now sitting sideways on my lap, both of her hands gripped on my shoulders. Meanwhile, one of my arms was supporting her back while the other was comfortably resting on her exposed thighs.

Since he’s still refusing to talk, it’s better to show him our relationship.

This is almost the same as when I called Ogawa to their clubroom and showed him Hina’s relationship with me.

And naturally, I won’t do anything more than this.

Maybe a few kisses if I can’t hold back anymore. For now, this is enough.

Besides, I told Saki to do what she wanted to do once we’re in this position.

It’s a lot better for her to initiate things than make it look like I am coercing her.

“Taku… This is my relationship with Ruki. If you’re thinking I’m only being led around by him, that’s where you’re wrong.” Saki said.

The girl only glanced at him for a moment before switching her gaze back to me. And while caressing my cheek, Saki unhesitatingly kissed me.

Her lips hungrily nibbled on mine as if she couldn’t wait to show the guy that she belonged to me.

And while I accepted all of that and even returned in the same intensity, I kept observing the silent guy. I made it a task to catch any changes in his expression.

And well within the character that I compiled based on my observation of him, the guy expectedly remained frozen from where I left him. He’s visibly shaking in repressed anger, evident by his cupped fists.

He’s not mute so it goes to say that he’s also not deaf or blind. He heard what Saki said and even watched us making out in front of him.

However, even with that, he still kept his mouth closed.

Honestly, the way he acts is bordering on what Ogawa showed. Worse, even.

If he remained silent after this… then he’ll definitely continue holding onto his infatuation towards Saki. And he probably won’t care whether she returned it or not.

Ogawa could openly show his hate and he kept on wearing his emotion on his sleeve. But for this one, not only was he not saying anything, he’d only show some kind of reaction when he saw us together.

“Hmm? Since you’re not saying anything… I guess you don’t mind our relationship, right?”

I intentionally put on a shameless smile to rile him up.

However, he’s like a huge boulder sitting in the middle of a raging stream. Unmoving.

While we’re showing him our intimate relationship, we took turns in riling him up to at least say or do something. But in the end, his eyes only became bloodshot apart from the intense shaking of his whole body from the rage that built up.

It’s official. This guy is even more hopeless than Ogawa.

If I have to guess… he’ll probably only talk if he’s alone with Saki. But there’s no way I can risk letting Saki be alone with him after frustrating him like this. Noᴠel Fɪre.net

I guess this is enough. Confronting him this time will not result in him stepping back. However, it proved that his self-restraint was higher than Ogawa’s. Even after humiliating him like this, he didn’t do anything. Either he’s too scared to do something because I’m here or he’s still holding onto a faint hope. Faint hope that he can still change Saki’s mind.

After whispering something to Saki, the girl stood up from me and pulled me with her. We then picked up the bags we placed on the table and began to move towards the door.

When we reached his position, Saki and I stopped next to him. Naturally, I placed the girl on my right just in case he lost it and tried to grab her.

“Taku, I get it. You like Saki but you’re damn too late to confess. I’m telling you this man-to-man – if you keep being silent as you are now and resort to stalking, you will never be more than a stalker.” I tapped his shoulder once more before continuing. “Also, I know you’re raging right now. Great job at keeping it in, by the way. But don’t you ever touch her. I kid you not, you won’t like it if I get angry.”

“Yes, I’m threatening you. You can stare at me with bloodshot eyes and glare as if I’m your archnemesis but that’s not going to change anything. Don’t be like Ogawa.”

More than my threat, the last sentence I added seems to be more effective. The guy flinched and groaned as his rage seemingly disperse slightly.

Before we continued on our steps, Saki also said something. Something better as a closing remark for today.

“Taku, we’re part of the same circle. Let’s not change that, okay? I appreciate that you’re not telling anyone about this but please give up on me.”

Without waiting for what his reaction will be, I brought Saki out of the room and escorted her to their clubroom.

We never mentioned my relationship with Nami. That’s intentional. I’m actually waiting for him to bring that up on the table.. Unfortunately, he chose to keep being silent.
