My Seatmate Tries to Make Me Fall in Love with Her by Teasing Me Repeatedly, but Somehow She Was the One Who Fell

It was the start of the week.

Yui went to school a little earlier than usual, and, after exchanging greetings with her classmates, she returned to her seat and waited for Yuuki.

Opening her textbook and test study guides, she spread them out on top of her desk. However, instead of studying, she kept glancing at the doorway, waiting for her moment.

(He’s here)

Yuuki walked in with a sleepy expression.

Yui quickly took out her glasses from her bag, quickly put them on, and looked down at the study guide on her desk.

She heard the sound of a chair being pulled out next to her, and Yuuki took a seat.

(Come on, come on…)

She pretended to diligently study and waited for Yuuki to mention her glasses. However, he didn’t even greet her, much less mention her glasses.

Sneaking a glance to her side, she saw him staring out the window. So she called out to him.

“Good morning.”

When she said that, Yuuki just glanced at her briefly, lightly nodded, and then went back to his original position.

What’s with his attitude? Did he have a headache in the morning? Forgetting about her glasses, Yui went after him.

“…What’s with your attitude?”

“Nothing, I just thought it would be bad to interrupt your studies.”

He was being considerate in his own way, but in reality, she hadn’t studied even a little bit.

Yuuki was the first to notice that there was a different atmosphere to Yui.

When Yui sent silent pressure towards him, Yuuki finally noticed Yui’s face.

“What’s that?”

“Hm? Ahhh, these glasses? These are…”

“No, your hair is sticking up.”

“No idea, it’s just hair.”

She suspected he was doing that on purpose.

Anyways, let’s start over.

“I’ve been studying so much lately that I think my eyesight is getting worse~.”

“Heh.”

“I was studying all day yesterday.”

In actuality, she spent the morning yesterday rereading several volumes of manga before reading the new chapter.

In the afternoon, her mother and sister went out to shop, so she went along. In the evening they had dinner at a restaurant. The food was delicious.

“And then, glasses are…”

As Yuuki stared at her eyes, Yui decided to give a special glasses quiz.

His eyes were glued to her. He must have been amazed at her overflowing intelligence.

“What? Look at me.”

“You look like someone who wears glasses to look smart.”

“Ahh~ there are people like that after all~.”

When Yui nodded violently, Yuuki suddenly frowned.

“Hm, what’s wrong?”

“You’re glowing.”

“Ah, yeah.”

“Don’t look over here too much.”

Is that something you say to a person wearing glasses?! Fuck you!

…is what she thought, but she held back. Intelligent characters with glasses don’t say things like that.

She was an intelligent and cool girl with glasses. She had to act like it.

“By the way, how is Yuuki-kun’s studying?”

“It’s not great because of Mizuna. But Yui studied the entire day yesterday, so you must be making a lot of progress, right?”

“Yep. If there’s anything you don’t get, you can always ask me.”

“…Hey, aren’t you talking kinda weird?”

“No? It’s always been like this.”

“Hm, no.”

“It’s not different.”

“It’s different.”

“You’re so mean.”

“That’s it.”

She wondered what kind of character he thought she was.

This would make her an intelligent yakuza rather than an intelligent Yui.

Anyways, she’s now an intelligent Yui. So she told herself in her mind.

“You’re very persistent, Yuuki-san.”

“There you are, Ms. Yui.”

“Ohoho.”

“I don’t really understand this problem.”

“Let’s see, can’t be helped, huh~?”

Yui looked at the problem that Yuuki showed her.

It was math. And it was so long that she didn’t even want to read it.

The self-proclaimed intellectual thought that she was smart, but in reality, she was just wearing glasses.

(…I have no idea. Absolutely no clue.)

Yui nodded steadily while reading the problem.

“Ahh, this one… and this one’s a little tricky…”

“X and Z are here.”

“Right, right, the X-men and the Z-men…”

“Don’t be silly.”

“Ah, wait!”

She grabbed the edge of the study guide and Yuuki tried to pull it down quickly.

He calmly waved away her hand and said, “Don’t tear it.”

“Well if you aren’t sure then that’s that. Let’s ask Rin then.”

“You can’t do that!”

“Why not?”

“I-in the first place, Rin-chan is my comrade. How many times do you think I had to fight before I got Rin to join me?”

“…M-me?”

As Yui turned towards the faint voice, Rin was standing behind the seat like a spirit.

Yui almost fell out of her chair. Even Yuuki was a little surprised by her.

“Why is Rin-chan suddenly here?! D-Do you need something?”

“Can I not help?”

“Don’t listen over here!”

For some reason, Yuuki was quick to interject from the side.

Rin seemed to be uncomfortable. Yui was sure the two were up to something.

Unless Yui came, Rin never came.

(Huh… unless she’s come to see Yuuki-kun… no way, no way…)

“U-um… I-I was heading to the bathroom and figured I’d stop by…”

Rin laughed unnaturally.

“Ah, Yui megane1…”

Yuimegane…? What’s that? A new kind of Pok*mon?

She tilted her head for a moment, completely forgetting that she was wearing her own glasses.

“Yes, yes. It’s just that my eyesight is bad and I’m sitting in the last row.”

“I think I’ll… wear my glasses too.” 𝗳r𝗲𝙚w𝐞𝚋𝘯𝚘ѵ𝗲l.𝑐oｍ

“Eh?”

“I’ve also been having trouble seeing the blackboard lately, so I’ve been thinking about wearing glasses in class.”

Due to the sudden declaration, Yui was a bit annoyed.

If Rin, who was already smart, wore glasses, it would make her even smarter.

And above all else, it would be like a rip-off. She’s trying to copy someone else!

“T-then, it looks like Yui and I are matching…”

“No, Rin-chan! You can’t just rely on your glasses like that!”

“E-eh?”

“I’ll train you! Look at my fingers!”

Yui extended her index and slowly moved it back and forth in front of Rin’s eyes.

By repeating this, she would be able to restore Rin’s eyesight. She saw it on TV the other day.

“I can see, I can see~ You can’t see because you think you can’t see~”

She also said something like that.

As she was moving her fingers to and away from Rin, who was confused, Yuuki came in between the two with a slightly dismayed face.
