It was after school, but Yuriko and Takeru were already returning home since it was the week before midterms, and that meant that all club activities were canceled for the week, including the student council activities so that the students could focus on their studies

"Nee, Takeru. Are you ready for your midterms?"

"I think so, I'll make sure to cram the day before the tests"

"I see... Then do you want me to help you study for tests this week, Takeru?"

"Hmm... I think I'll pa-"

"We are going to study together, aren't we? Ta~ke~ru~"

Yuriko showed Takeru her usual intimidating smiling face, as she said that

"Y-yes"

Due to that Takeru who was initially going to pass on her offer, stepped back as he gave in to Yuriko's demand

"Great! Then when we return to your apartment, we'll start studying right away"

"Eh?! We're going to star-"

"Yes, we're going to start studying today. Do you have a problem with it, Takeru?"

"N-no..."

"Good"

And once again, Ichiro gave in to Yuriko's demand as she showed him an intimidating smile, which was so effective that Takeru even looked away with a blue face

30 minutes later

After returning to the apartment building, Yuriko first returned to her apartment to change clothes, and get some of the materials for the midterms tests subjects, after that she went over to Takeru's apartment

"Alright, Takeru. Let's start our study group!"

"Yes... *Sigh*... !"

As Takeru felt dejected as he opened his math book, he noticed that Yuriko was wearing the glasses he had bought for her on their first date. And of course, Yuriko noticed him looking at her

"Do you need something, Takeru?"

"No..."

Takeru looked down at his math book to avoid looking at Yuriko, but unfortunately for him, Yuriko had a playful smile on her face

"Hee... You're not even going to praise how I'm looking with these glasses that you bought for me?"

"... ... ... They look good on you"

Takeru initially tried to stay silent, but in the end, he ended up saying what Yuriko wanted to hear as his cheeks turned slightly red

"Fufu. Thank you, Takeru"

With that, the two started studying, eventually, Yuriko noticed that Takeru was having a problem with a question

"Do you need help, Takeru?"

"No"

"Is that so?"

"Yes"

"If you say so... But if you answer it wrongly, I'll ask you a question that you can only answer with honesty"

"Eh?!"

"Why the surprise? Didn't you say that you could answer it alone, Takkun?"

At hearing Yuriko saying that in a very playful tone, Takeru made a cute angry face toward her

"I'll show you that I can answer it!"

"Okay!~"

And Takeru started solving the math question he was having a hard time with... And his final answer was wrong
