The Taming of the Yandere Vol 3 Chapter 9 Sep 01, 2018

Chapter 9

Though our little study group separated from the incident, there were still the summer cram classes that we all needed to attend .

There weren’t many days left of the class, but I wasn’t going to ditch school . The following morning after the weekend, I prepared my things as usual .

Textbooks, notebooks, scratch paper, pens, and a backpack .

After my morning routine, I looked at myself in the mirror . A tall, slender figure, and a face of fatigue . I looked like I couldn’t do anything right .

Could it be that there’s too much for me to do lately? Besides what happened with Jiang Muqing, the cram school’s also been eating away at my mind .

I tried to make a funny face at the mirror .

I imagined about what happened that day, the insanity that was displayed on my expression . The resulting reflection gave me a jump .

Pulsating veins on my forehead, bulging eyes, and a mouth that seemed like it was torn open, revealing two rows of gleaming white teeth upon a crimson bed .

Along with the monstrous words that came from my throat… .

… .

The thought frightened me . After seeing it for myself, I felt like my mind was much clearer .

Was it that I went overboard and scared her a bit too much? I looked back at the office’s shut door .

Though I was still less fearsome than how she normally was during her own episodes, she’d simply closed me off . Her clinginess had stuck to me like a habit, and in a flash, she became like a normal person living at my house . Ironically, it felt surreal .

Should I call for her

to come with me?

After all, she had signed up for that cram class for my sake . Now that she had shut off, she probably wouldn’t go back again . I didn’t know whether Mo Shiyu would come either; after all, only God knew what she would think when she sees me again after something like that happened .

“Oh my f***ing god, that bastard’s seen me naked from head to toe!”

It would most likely be a thorough feeling of disgust .

“Dong dong!”

I knocked on the office door, but there was no response .

I turned away almost immediately, feeling a sense of relief . Because at that moment, I thought that maybe the taming had worked .

When a yandere girl hates her person of interest, that person will no longer be of interest . Without the incessant longing towards that somebody, the yandere could not be called a yandere anymore .

But on that logic, she should have gathered her things and gone home already, why is she still hiding in Dad’s office? I had no idea what she was still on about .

I walked to the bus station, waiting for the line that would take me to cram school . To my surprise, Mo Shiyu was also walking along, and stopped beside me .

So, she’d ended up coming? It didn’t seem that the incident had affected her very much . She was wearing clean clothes along with a crisp ponytail tied to the back . She seemed energetic to go to class, and I couldn’t detect a bit of abnormality from her .

However…

“Um, Mo Shiyu?”

I inched towards her .

The shoujo turned around and looked at me, seeming a bit stunned .

“Hm?”

She lowered her head, and her expression was

was a little rigid .

“About what happened, I’m sorry… . ”

Though I had already apologized many times, I still couldn’t help but do it again after seeing her like this .

“It’s, it’s okay, I’m alright…”

She laughed awkwardly at me .

The bus peeled in the stop, and she didn’t pay more attention to me, almost escaping onto the bus . Then, she found a spot at the back .

I stepped on too, but stopped at the front .

I didn’t think I should bother her anymore .

Just when the bus started its engine, a girl waved frantically at the driver from the stop . He stomped on the brakes, and she hurried through the doors .

“Jiang Muqing?”

Upon the sight of her white dress, I called out her name .

She ended up coming, but is she not scared that Mo Shiyu would get back at her or something?

Jiang Muqing looked at me, and ignored my presence as usual . She walked to the end of the bus, and stopped by Mo Shiyu’s side .

“Aye… . ”

I wanted to stop her .

But Jiang Muqing didn’t look very angry at Mo Shiyu .

When she saw Jiang Muqing walk up, her face revealed a fearful expression . She backed away to a more crowded corner, leaving a spot for her nightmare to stand in .

So, it’s still a prey-predator relationship? I was hoping that Mo Shiyu would stand up for herself a little .

Was the formerly bossy class president still conquered by the transfer student in the end? Now that I thought about it, if I was so scared of her before, then I’m no better than the “prey” .

… .

After a short walk from the bus, we arrived on

arrived on time at the summer class .

I walked at the very front, and Jiang Muqing was a short distance behind . I couldn’t see Mo Shiyu until after Jiang Muqing had walked a considerable distance; it was only then she came from behind the street corner .

I felt guilty seeing her, and hoped that time would heal her wound .

Because I’d come early, I randomly picked an empty seat . I thought that none of the two would try to sit near me, since nobody wants to sit next to a sick piece of s**t .

As expected, Jiang Muqing sat at the farthest seat away from me in the corner when she walked in .

Finally, I could listen properly in class . Before, the atmosphere was always bizarre with the two of them sitting behind me, but now, that problem doesn’t exist anymore .

Soon, Mo Shiyu came in . She saw me first, and I smiled weakly at her . Her cheek twitched, and she too hurried to the opposite corner .

Then, she saw Jiang Muqing, who looked up at her . She backed away quickly in fright, and finally sat down in the middle of the classroom .

… .

Maybe we’ll never be in the same boat again . Yet, things weren’t as simple as I thought they would be . This happened in the break between the summer class periods .

… .

During the first language arts period, we discussed the poem “Slowing Whispers” that Li Qingzhao wrote after her husband died . *

*Li Qingzhao was a Chinese writer and poet in the Song dynasty, and considered one of the greatest women poets in Chinese history .

In the following biology class, webiology class, we studied cell division and how DNA unravels and instructs cells how to replicate themselves .

During the break, many girls lamented how there couldn’t have been a man who deserved Li Qingzhao due to her elegance and literary intellect .

And many boys tried to figure out how in the world could a few simple cells grow into whole plants and animals .

As for me, I was preoccupied with disposing of the waste in my system that was cramping up my stomach from all the water I drank this morning .

In more common terms, I went to take a piss .

Just when I had let it out and my gut felt a lot better, I heard a series of strange noises from the girls’ bathroom on the other side .

“Ah… . No… . ”

The moans of a shoujo?

I curiously peered over the doorframe, and witnessed a shocking scene .

In front of me was a long-haired girl and a ponytailed one .

Their bodies were pressed together, and the long-haired one was forcefully holding the ponytailed girl against the whitewashed wall . Upon sight of her prey’s horrified face, she let out a psychotic cackle, and pushed her lips upon her prey’s without a sliver of hesitation .

“Ah! You can’t…”

The ponytailed girl suddenly realized that the hands that were holding down her shoulders had slid down to the buttons on her collar . With a few simple clicks, they reached in .

Her cheeks showed a faint blush, and her pupils grew emptier by the second . They gazed confusedly in the distance, slowly losing their intelligence .

… .

“Jiang Muqing, Mo Shiyu… what are you two doing?”

I felt as if something in my head had snapped .

What was this?
