-Saiki just ~casually~ calling her his wife when he hears people think dirty thoughts
-Althougg lets be honest, Teruhashi is definitely the possessive one here
-They get a restraining order against Makoto. because reasons
-Saiki helping Teruhashi understand that ‘hey, it’s okay if you mess up sometimes’
-As for PDA, Teruhashi would way more public with her affections, while Saiki is almost never all that affectionate in public
-The only regret Saiki has when they move in together is the realisation that way more people are constantly gonna be in their house
-(he enjoys the company of their closer friends, although he’d never admit it to anyone but Teruhashi)
-The first time Saiki calls Teruhashi by her first name she passes out
-Saiki’s probably not much of a cuddler, but lets Teruhashi sleep on him anyways
-Teruhashi and Kuriko sharing clothes
-Teruhashi always insisting o taking care of Saiki when he’s sick, while Saiki tells her to stay away because he’s scared of hurting her by accident (or worse, getting her sick and having to deal with the kokomins again)
-Whenever they go on dates, Saiki tends to purposefully make sure people don’t look at her so they have a bit of privacy.

Summary: What if, on chapter 271/272 of the manga where Saiki removes his left hairpin device. The device that once removed… people of the world will know of his psychic ability. And what if, when he removes that device, it did really shows all over the world about Saiki being a psychic user? And that shocked even Kuusuke because he thought he de-activated it a long time ago. I want to start this story on that very scene and we'll see what will un-fold.
And by the way, this is a SaiTeru fanfic so what I'm saying is the story will focus on both of them. We will see what their relationship will go through. I'll stick to the manga's story as much as possible but of course, all scene will not be exactly as what the manga/anime goes.

Chapter 1 | Chapter 2 | Chapter 3
Chapter 4: Hear me out.
After several minutes of quietness coming from the room, Saiki eyed the girl beside him.
So… why are you still here? Cocking his eyebrow at her as she shrieks at his sudden voice.
Placing her hands over her chest “You startled me there, Saiki-kun” she exhaled. Still, Saiki remained stoic as he waits for an answer. Scratching her cheeks shyly “Well you see…” feeling uneasy and shy avoiding his wondering eyes as she scans through nook and cranny in Saiki’s room.
Sighing apathetically. Yare, Yare. If you're having a hard time expressing your thoughts, you can always remove the ring. In that way, I can hear what you want to say. Through your mind. Easy. He expresses naturally as if it was nothing.
Nonetheless, to the blue-headed girl, her cheeks flared up in crimson red upon hearing that. W-what?? Does… does Saiki-kun badly want to hear my thoughts? Slapping her cheeks, erasing the thoughts away and slowly glanced at the psychic, observing his facial expression.
As you can see, Teruhashi took Saiki's word in the wrong way and adding some misunderstanding to the situation. Again, and this time, without Saiki knowing it. And that’s because he can’t read her mind. But, seeing the maiden acting strange, he thought she was thinking of nonsensical and troublesome things. Yare, yare.
I’m sure this is just a misunderstanding on my part. As always. I should be wary about what he says and does. Sighing deeply. She faces the psychic.
“Ne, Saiki-kun!” she called but no answer was heard but still, she continues. “About what you said earlier… you know,” scratching her chin absentmindedly. “about my feelings that you mentioned a while ago, you said I misunderstood and took it the wrong way!?” she tilts her head to stare at the pink-headed boy right beside her but, the guy in question is not uttering nor answering her back still, she knows that his all ears. So she decided to let her thoughts all out.
She coughs to get his attention. “I mean, do you really thought I misunderstood it?” she finally asked. And by that statement alone, she grabs the attention of a certain psychic and now glaring at her with furrowed eyebrows. It frightened Teruhashi a bit but, she held her breath and act bravely as she needed it to face him head-on.
Tilting his head confused as he continued staring daggers at the maiden who’s now in front of him. What do you mean?
She coughs again. “You see…I think you are the one who misunderstood me? Or my action!” she uttered with a low voice in the middle of her statement. Still, her companion was just staring dumbfounded at her.
He let out a long breath, ruffling his hair annoyingly and as stared at her. I?? Misunderstood… you? Me? Of all people? I’m not misunderstanding anything or whatnot. You are! Because in all honesty, I'm sure—
When Teruhashi was about to open her mouth to disagree, Saiki beat her to it. Sighing exasperatedly. You are the one misunderstanding the situation! He muttered gritting his teeth.
Vein pops on Teruhashi as she listens almost calmly at the same time, almost annoyed at how Saiki is being irrational. Clenching her fist as she shouts “NO!” Saiki was completely taken aback by her sudden outburst. But, he let her continue while keeping his calm in check.
“I'm not! I know well enough what I feel!” she said in a low tone enough for him to hear.
Inhaling deeply while pinching the bridge of his nose. Seriously! You just want me to say that pathetic lines your admirers saying to you! But whatever the circumstances are… I won't say it! Rather, I will and never will say it! And also, that is the whole reason why you're fixated to me! I’m telling you this, so you should st—
“NO!” She burst out stopping Saiki on whatever his about to say.
Taking a deep breath. Placing her hands over her chest to calm her beating heart. “I agree with you wholeheartedly! At first, that was my main reason why I want to get your attention but, as time goes by, I learned what kind of person you are all these days that past. You are nothing like them, you see me as just a normal person though, that annoyed me nevertheless, I’ve come to understand that, that just your personality; you’re quiet, expressionless person, ordinary guy… well, that’s how you look like to us back then, but even so, I like every part of that about you. I know, it’s hard to believe but honestly, I’ve come to accept it. All of it, the real you.” She pants while letting her thought out. Still, she’s not done and continue on her speech.
“Still, I want you to say that pathetic line you mentioned earlier because even if just once… I want to hear it through your voice. That’s my selfish wish” Looking straight in his eyes. “I’ve come to accept my true feelings towards you as day past. With Chiyo’s help of course. So, please, don’t say that I misunderstood my feelings towards you, I’ve had a tough time realizing and accepting it on my own. And now that I know and sure of it, don’t you say casually that I misunderstand everything. It’s actually your fault…” she stops mid-sentence seeing the dark expression on Saiki’s face. She flinched but, that won't stop her from telling him her thoughts loud and clear. She inhales deeply and starts again. “It’s your fault to begin with, that I felt this way towards you, so you should take responsibility by acknowledging it. You don’t need to accept it right away, I’m just asking that you-
But I can’t! Averting his eyes towards the maiden as he shut her off and he started to pay attention back at the window without any interest.
Teruhashi was looking at him with eyes wide open, mouth almost open. She didn’t expect that Saiki will make a sad and uncomfortable face. She wanted to ask why but, seeing his stern look was enough to silence her. Choosing to close her mouth she also glances at the window without knowing what to look at and sighed exasperatedly.
Silence took over the room for a couple of minutes until Saiki breaks it by saying something that startled the maiden.
Still, upon hearing his voice she’s back at staring at him. I can't accept your feelings or acknowledge them. He decided to face her seriously this time. Seeing that she was facing him as well with a sad expression on her face. Still, she was brave enough to hear his thoughts on the matter. Because it’s not every day that he can express himself to others.
Saiki sighed. Look, as you see, I’m a psychic and that’s why I can’t accept you. You, of all people! You know very well how others viewed you. And if I associated myself with you, there’s a chance that somebody will learn my secret. And as you said, you are here to help me with that! And by associating with me, there’s also a high chance your life may put in jeopardy so… please… this time, just forget the emotion you're harboring towards me-
“I can't!” shutting him off, which causes her lost for breath, clenching both her hands placing it over her chest, with tears overflowing her eyes. “I can’t do that! I don’t want to! Call me selfish but… but this time, I can't, I don’t want to do that! Saiki-kun, this… this is the first time I chose someone else towards my own selfish goal. I don’t… I can’t…” snipping and rubbing the salt tears flowing through her eyes.
Saiki was just staring at her without doing anything, confusing the hell out of him. And as this moment on, he was now regretting giving her the germanium ring because of how anxious he was. And he badly wants to hear what was running through her mind. If she really was saying the truth or manipulating him because she’s good at doing that to anybody. But, he’s different from the rest, he was a psychic; he knows better if anyone is trying to manipulate him. Nevertheless, he’s facing the most troublesome and most fearless enemy he got. And that was Teruhashi Kokomi who’s God's favorite.
Saiki was feeling indifferent to the situation they were facing, he felt anxious that unbeknownst to him, he suddenly holds Teruhashi's shoulder tightly that startled and made her skip-a-beat. She looked at him strangely at the same time confused with a flushed face.
Uneasy at their position, she called his name with trembling voice “S-Saiki-kun?” but it seems Saiki's mind was in disarray that he didn’t hear her calling him.
He was just staring straight in her eyes absentmindedly, lost in thoughts. Teruhashi was beginning to lose her mind at the sudden proximity and her face was now redder than tomato. Also, her stomach was starting to twist in a knot. She was confused at him, she wanted to ask him many things and what was he doing now. And also, she doesn’t want to think of this as something special to cause more misunderstanding.
Silence took over that moment, no one was speaking the only sound that can be heard in the room was the ticking of the clock, the sound of their breath. But that soon came to an end when Saiki decided to speak.
You… He called that made the pretty girl shriek, and she hummed to answer him. Is what you say the truth? He asked with seriousness evident on his voice that made Teruhashi shivered. Answer! Ordering her.
Startled. She answered quickly but stumbled on the way. “Y-yeah… It’s… It’s true!” she swallows and calming herself. Because being nervous now will not help in this situation. “Yes, everything I said is the truth!” she answered bravely and took a deep breath as she stared at his eyes.
Saiki smirked that made her heartbeat fast. Now, noticing that he was holding her shoulders so tight he release it and bowed apologetically which she didn’t mind at all. And all of a sudden, he grabbed her hands were the ring was. Teruhashi, again, surprised at the sudden touch of the pink-headed guy that made her face flushed in crimson red, her heart was beating fast and any minute now, it will burst if Saiki decided to do weird things. And at this moment on, she was just staring at him with adoration. Lost in thoughts.
And all of a sudden, the ring fell out from her finger that startled her and brought her back to reality. Seeing the ring that blocking Saiki's telepathy was now on his hand. And she finally understood why Saiki suddenly grabs her hands, he wanted to remove the germanium ring that was placed on her finger. And upon realizing it, she felt uneasy because now, there’s no way she can’t block her mind from thinking about him. She felt embarrassed because her mind is filled with nothing but the guy in front of her and it made her face flushed gazillion times already and the one who causes her this so much distress is the guy in from of her. She can’t even show her face to him. And out of embarrassment she covered it with her hands.
Saiki for the second time grin. Playing with his germanium ring twisting it around his finger. Okay! You convinced me… so, you really are saying the truth? Teasing the pretty girl.
Still hiding her face. “That was uncalled for. Give me back the ring.” Removing one of her hands from her face to snatch the germanium ring on Saiki.
If you can snatch it away from me you can have it. Grinning mischievously and teasing her strangely amuses him. He really was enjoying this unbeknownst to him.
Saiki stretches his arms upward so Teruhashi won’t be able to get it. So, she tiptoes her foot trying hard to get the ring from him with her eyes close and not noticing that their body was clashing towards each other but because the pretty girl was so absorbed into getting back the ring she didn’t notice it. While the other individual was smiling at how hard she was trying to get the germanium ring back.
This jerked, this rude boring guy is being so childish, so annoying! Reading aloud what Teruhashi’s inner mind was telling. She immediately stops her movement because of embarrassment.
Slapping his arms lightly. “That was uncalled for! Don’t read my mind.” She pleads desperately.
What! As if I want to read your mind willingly. I can't help it you know! He sneered.
“Wha… what the heck… Saiki-kun, if you don’t want to read my mind give me back the ring!!” still hiding her face towards him and grabbing the damn ring on his finger.
Told you, snatch it from me, if you can… then you can have this!
If Teruhashi was not so embarrassed at the moment she can see that unusual happy face of Saiki, because Saiki at the moment was having fun teasing her. Until he notices someone was approaching the room. He stopped playing and gave the ring back to the embarrassed girl that startled her with his unpredictable and playful actions.
“What? What now?” She asked confused.
You want the Germanium ring, right? You can have it for now. When she’s about to protest Saiki speaks again silencing her. My mom will be here any moment now, so fix yourself and make sure your swollen eyes are gone. Don’t want her to think I did something to you. Go back and seat on my bed or that chair or whatever. He ordered the pretty girl which she obliged without a fight.
She walks at Saiki's bed and sat on it, placing the ring on the bedside while fixing herself, waiting for his Mom to come as what Saiki informed. And soon they heard a knock from the door and slowly opening, Kurumi peeking through the entrance as she waved at Teruhashi.
Smiling genuinely. “How’s the talk? Did Ku-chan told you everything, Kokomi-chan?” asking Teruhashi with a smile plastered on her face.
She nods in agreement. “Y-yes Auntie, thank you for letting me in,” she answered back.
“Good to know then. And of course, I also want to express my gratitude to you for accepting my son even though he is a psychic!” she told with affection. She was feeling grateful to Teruhashi.
Shaking her head. “No, it was us that needs to be thankful for your son.” Kurumi arched an eyebrow at her. Teruhashi smiled and continued. “I mean, Saik- Kusuo-kun helps us several times already. Thank you for giving birth to him Auntie” she bowed and Kurumi felt overjoyed hearing someone appreciating her son and how he lives his life. She wanted to cry out of happiness but she held it in as she side glance on her son seeing what expression his making.
And to her shocked, it was the first she saw his son looking so out of it, that confused look he’s making made her giggle at the sight of it which she earned harsh growl coming from him. She smiled and looked back at Teruhashi.
“Thank you again, Kokomi-chan!” bowing her head to show appreciation to the pretty girl which made her uneasy and she bowed and thank Saiki's mother to ease the situation.
And unbeknownst to her, she forgot to put the ring back on her finger. With that, Saiki knew what was running through her mind and that made his stomach feel strange and he was also confused at himself.
Teruhashi clapping her hands. “By the way, auntie, do you need some help? Is that why you’re here? If so, I can help you, in whatever I can!” that snap Kurumi from her thoughts. Shaking her head disapprovingly.
“No, no Kokomi-chan, I’m here to let you know that Kuu-kun, Kuusuke; Ku-chan's big brother asks me to relay a message to you” She informed which earned a questioning hummed towards the girl.
Tilting her head “oh! What might that be?” remembering Saiki's older brother made her soar.
“He asked me to tell you that you should stay for the night here because…”
While Kurumi was still explaining, Teruhashi with wide eyes, slamming her hands in the bed. “W-WHAT?? A- DO-“ Wa-wa…What did she say??? Me staying here… the whole freaking night? With Saiki-kun? Wa-wa-what??? It’s fine but… what should I do, can I sleep together with… kyaaaa Kokomi get a grief. A perfect pretty girl doesn’t act like that! Getting flustered and having a hard time forming her words.
Smiling at Teruhashi, she repeats. “Kuu-kun wanted you to stay for the night because it might be dangerous for you to go outside!” informing the still flushed maiden. She giggles at the sight of it while Saiki moaned tiredly.
Inhaling deeply, she made sure she’s calm and looked back at Kurumi “Auntie, I can’t, my brother will be worried and it might be more dangerous if he sees Saik- Kusuo-kun here!” she informed.
Kurumi places her pointer finger on her chin as if thinking, “Hmm… well, you can call your brother and just make an excuse? Kuu-kun said that there’s a high chance that someone has seen you go here so, if you’ll go outside it might be dangerous for you and he also said… It will be too troublesome if Ku-chan will teleport you to your house. Because it will cause another commotion.” Teruhashi nods at her and still waiting for more explanation.
“If we let you go outside or even if someone will fetch you from here, it will still be chaotic. Also, Kuu-kun said that you need to keep this a secret from everyone, don’t contact your friends that you speak with Ku-chan.” Teruhashi wants to ask more questions but letting it slide because she knows that they were doing this for Saiki’s sake so instead, she remained silent and wait until Kurumi is finished.
“Lastly, kuu-kun also mentioned that he has a major plan and—“
Eyes wide open, what do you mean? Asking her mom only through her mind but, Kurumi didn’t pay attention to him as she continues with her speech. Which she earns a low growl coming from her son.
She coughs. “As I mentioned, Kuu-kun said he has a plan in motion and will be here tomorrow morning before you go to school.” She said with a smile.
“He already made a plan? That’s a good news Saik- Kusuo-kun” Clapping her hands cheerfully as she stared at Saiki with a smile on her face.
“That is also the reason why you need to be here Kokomi-chan, because Kuu-kun has something to say to you. But, if you'll ask me… I don’t know the answer! I'm sorry” Kurumi informed and at the same time apologetic to the young girl.
Shaking her head. “It’s alright Auntie, Don’t worry about it! If it’s a plan to device how Sak- kusuo-kun will be free again, I’m willing to help.” Clasping her hands energetically.
Saiki also frowned upon knowing that Teruhashi will stay here the whole night. It’s troublesome and it’s also freaking him. Knowing he’ll be with her the whole freaking night his mind was in a different kind of haze and also, wishes that somehow he can get through this without any more trouble. And to say, the Madonna forgot to put the ring on her finger and that is why he is restless because he can read what is running through her mind. And to say it’s all troublesome stuff. Yare, yare.
Kurumi claps her hands that warrant the attention of the two as they both look at her “Okay, now that I’ve said it, I’ll go on ahead and continue my work downstairs. I’ll leave you two young ones alone and continue your conversation.” She smiled knowingly.
Teruhashi nods unsurely while Saiki grimaced. Kurumi waves her hands to them and leaves the two alone in the room with awkward silence.
We’re alone again. Oh, my gosh! With her hands cupping her face Get a grief Kokomi, it’s not like something will happen…
Saiki sighed exasperatedly. (Yare, yare) I thought you don’t want me to hear your thoughts? Then why are you not wearing the ring I gave you?” Saiki uttered between his breaths as he breaks the ice between them.
Teruhashi was taken aback at his sudden voice and realization hit her seeing the ring place on the bed. She forgot that she places the ring there a while ago to fix herself. And a sudden wave of embarrassment occurs her knowing all this time Saiki knew what her thought was. Blood rush to her brain and she immediately grab the ring place it on her finger. Her face was flushed due to embarrassment. That was embarrassing… I’m the worst. AAAA… what will I do? How can I face him directly? She wanted to glance at the pink-headed guy but was too embarrassed to see his face instead, she covers her face with his pillow.
What are you doing now? He decided to approach the maiden. But because Teruhashi was busy with her thoughts alone, she didn’t hear him.
He sighed and poke her head repeatedly until he gets her attention back. Oy—
She suddenly jumps on her feet that surprised the psychic himself. With her face in a deep shade of red, she immediately announces that she’ll go downstairs and help Kurumi in whatever she needs.
“A… I’ll go downstairs and help Auntie” she states as she runs through the door without waiting for his response.
Ruffling his hair as he stared at her running form. Yare, yare. Finally some peace!
When Teruhashi was now out in his sight she suddenly felt relax; resting her head on the wall as she inhaled. “That was nerve-wracking!”
Now that she felt relaxed, she reminisces what happened a moment ago. It was embarrassing, even so, she felt great because she finally conveyed her true feelings and so she felt at ease.
“Now, it’s up to Saiki-kun!” smiling to herself, she started to march to find Kurumi and help her in her needs.
Upon reaching the lobby up to the kitchen she found Kurumi humming a song, she went to her and greeted her.
“Hi, Auntie! Need some help?” she suddenly approaches the middle-age woman.
Startled at Teruhashi’s sudden approach. “Kokomi-chan! I’m fine here alone, you can accompany Ku-chan upstairs” smiling at the girl whose face is now crimson red.
Waving her hands frantically. “No, ah… I mean” rubbing her cheeks shyly. “It’s alright Auntie, I mean, I talk to him and we settled things on our end so there is no need to talk anymore, I want to help you prepare dinner for the night. That’s the only way I can help.” She informed, smiling at Kurumi.
Smiling at her back, she nods. “Okay then, let’s prepare dinner together!”
“Right!” agreeing cheerfully. And they began to do their jobs until it’s dinner time.
A few more hours later Saiki's Dad, Kuniharu came and went to greet his wife, upon reaching the kitchen he was surprised to see Teruhashi there helping his dear wife.
With wide eyes. “Kokomi-chan?” he said questioningly.
Both girls look up to the place where they heard the voice came in and to see Kuniharu there, Kurumi rush towards her husband to hug and greeted him welcomely and Teruhashi bowed to express her gratitude.
“Papa, you came home!” Kurumi welcomed her dear husband happily.
“Welcome home uncle!” Teruhashi beam welcoming Saiki's dad whose face is still shocked.
Scratching his chin “E… Why is Kokomi-chan here? Honey” whispering to Kurumi who’s all smile to him.
Slapping his chest lightly. “Oh! Don’t worry about that papa, Kokomi-chan already know about Ku-chan!” she informed her husband with a knowing look. Upon hearing her statement Kuniharu gasped in total shock, he stared at Teruhashi confirming if what her wife said was the truth. When Teruhashi saw the looks of Kuniharu and at first, she didn’t understand what he wanted to convey but soon realize that Kurumi might inform her husband about the reason why she’s here. So to answer his silent query she nods in agreement.
“Seriously? Th-that’s good then…” He stops mid-sentence upon realizing that the pretty girl knew about his son and still here happily chatting with her wife not afraid of kusuo.
Now that he realizes that he made a ducked-face. “Ahyuuuuu!!!!” Kurumi look at him weirdly even Teruhashi was alarmed.
“Papa?” “U-uncle?” both arched an eyebrow as they stared at Kuniharu.
“Aaahyuuuuu!” he went and grab Teruhashi's hand to her shocked. “I’m just glad that you still accept Kusuo even though he’s not a normal person!” still crying out of happiness.
She chuckled and squeezed kuniharu’s hand. “Don’t worry uncle. At first, I was scared to know the truth but, upon realizing how great and kind Kusuo-kun was.” She pulled her hand gently and walk beside the table to remove the ring on her finger placing it at the top of the table. “I mean, on the times he was beside us, without knowing his true self; I felt relieved and I know he is to be trusted. You have a good son Uncle” smiling the whole time she also stared at Kurumi and bowed her head. “And Auntie as well, you both are the reason why Kusuo-kun grew up to become the man that he is now” she expressed warmly and the two parents were so delighted hearing that and both cried out in so much happiness.
Making a ducked-face “Ahyuuuuu!!!” the both uttered.
“Thank you, Kokomi-chan!” Kurumi was the first to thank her by clasping their hands together. “I’m really glad that Ku-chan has you as a friend!” She claims. And Teruhashi got shy and scratch her cheeks and smiled awkwardly.
“Me too! The first time I saw you on the shrine… I knew you would be perfect for Kusuo” he informed the pretty girl that got startled at his remark now waving her hand in the air with a flushed face.
“Uncle!!! Th-that’s… I…” can’t utter her words correctly, she was embarrassed and started to pick the ring that she places on the table to block her mind so a certain someone can’t read her embarrassing thoughts
“Aww… Kokomi-chan, you don’t have to get embarrassed!” Kurumi teases her more without ulterior motive. Teruhashi, on the other hand, felt restless and embarrassed at this situation, hoping Saiki will not hear any of this.
On the other hand and to her luck, Saiki was there eyeing there every move as he listen to their nonsense conversation. He was standing at the doorway sometime now and they haven’t noticed him there. He was staring at the three with his usual deadpan expression. Yare, yare. How did it turn out like this?
Sighing at the sight he was seeing, he stood to where they are to grab their attention. And upon seeing him there, they all gasped.
“A! Kusuo you’re here!” his dad said.
“Sa-sa-Saiki— Kusuo-kun” Teruhashi exclaimed with her face flushed reaching her ears, wishing that he didn’t hear anything but she knows he has.
“A! Ku-chan, dinner is ready, go seat with Kokomi-chan!” his mom uttered. That made Teruhashi flushed even more.
“A-Auntie!!!” she cried.
(Yare, yare.) He thought. What the heck are you two saying a while ago? Enough of that, your joke is not even funny! He muttered to his two meddlesome parents directly through their minds. While they both grin at him. He only sighed staring at his own parent’s dumb faces.
Kurumi then, clapping her hand cheerfully. “Okay! Now that dinner is ready, let’s go and eat!”
They all nod and agreed and went to their seat, and by the way, their seating arrangement was Saiki besides his Dad while Teruhashi with flushed face facing Saiki and besides her is Kurumi.
“It's hard to eat if I'm facing him! But, I’m glad I can see his face up-close!” grinning at her own statement. While the one facing her was annoyed at how his parents are grinning at him.
Honestly? If you ask me, this right here is another clear indicator of all the SaiTeru development and of where Saiki stands in regards to Teruhashi by the end of the manga.
After all, this is the final group illustration and it pays a lot of attention to detail. It really does its best to capture everyone’s characters and dynamic.
For example, here you have Nendou’s mom looking at Kouta with a smile on her face, possibly hinting that she may give him another chance in the future. And at the same time, you have Nendou’s Ghost Dad with his eyes fixed on her.
Meanwhile, Saiki’s Grandpa is glaring daggers at Kuniharu because how dare he stand between his daughter and his grandson, that should be his place!
And here you have Rifuta blushing up a storm because she’s standing right behind Makoto. All while Hairo’s enthusiasm is causing Suzumiya to be almost hidden from the picture. Luckily Satou remains unaffected by her bad luck. Then, of course, Takahashi greedily eyeing Saiko’s money because some things never change.
No matter where you look, the cover is full of awesome, meaningful details.
And then you have Saiki and Teruhashi, front and center. And it’s obvious that something has changed.
Teruhashi is grabbing his shoulder and leaning on him in a way she’s never done in the manga. What’s more, Saiki is perfectly fine letting this happen and looks content reaching out to the audience. This is pretty big, because while Teruhashi looks a little nervous, it still establishes that SaiTeru have become pretty close.
But if you ask me, it also hints that they’ll become even closer. Because look at Chiyo. Chiyo, who would’ve normally been trying to stand close to Kaidou, looks thrilled to be where she is. Staring at Teruhashi comfortably leaning on Saiki’s shoulder with a happy, approving smile on her face. The kind of face that says, You did it, Kokomi!
So yeah, to me everything about this cover screams Yes, Saiki and Teruhashi are going to get together eventually. And what do you know, Saiki is pretty okay with that lol
Hot Take: what if Saiki started to like Teruhashi for real in Chapter 182?
I started thinking about the possibility after writing this post and honestly, now I’m kind of convinced it’s possible.
I mean, like I mentioned before, it would fit. Before this chapter, Saiki was so certain Teruhashi was into him just because he refused to give into her (Chapter 149). But in Chapter 182, he realizes that no, that’s not it. She does genuinely like him. What’s more, she doesn’t like an idealized version of him. She likes him for him, as he is. And realizing it touches him. It literally “moves his heart”.
And given the way their dynamic is handled throughout the manga—aka, that every time Saiki wants something, Teruhashi turns the tables on him. Like when Saiki wanted Teruhashi’s likeability to go down, and instead her likeability goes up with him (Chapter 29).
It fits that the moment Saiki tries to make Teruhashi fall for someone else, he can’t because he may just like her himself, after all.
This is exactly the kind of divine irony the mangaka uses to develop their relationship.
And honestly, if you take into account how their interactions are handled from 182 up to the end, I do think it adds up.
Chapter 3: We are your friends, you can count on us too!
Summary: What if, on chapter 271/272 of the manga where Saiki removes his left hairpin device. The device that once removed... people of the world will know of his psychic ability. And what if, when he removes that device, it did really shows all over the world about Saiki being a psychic user? And that shocked even Kuusuke because he thought he de-activated it a long time ago. I want to start the story from that point on.
And by the way, this is a SaiTeru fanfic so what I'm saying is... the story will focus on both of them. We will see what their relationship goes. I'll stick to the manga's story as much as possible but of course, all scene will not be exactly as what the manga/anime goes.
Warning: And also, spoilers for those who's just starting to read the manga or watching anime. If you just started and saw this story because you ship Saiki and Teruhashi then you'll be spoiled. Just a warning for you guys but, if you don't care about spoilers... then go ahead and read this story of mine.

Chapter 3: We are your friends, you can count on us too!
Eyes widening in shock seeing Saiki o-so-sudden, she stuttered “S-Sa-Saiki-kun”
E… I didn't expect to see Saiki-kun so fast. Oh my God! How do I look?? Ah… seriously…
Bewildered at the sudden appearance of the certain guy she really and badly wants to see. Her thoughts are running wild.
While Teruhashi was busy with her thoughts alone, Saiki mused.
Yare, yare! Placing his hands on his hips as he glowered tiredly. He glances at her Mom signaling her to go on and he’ll talk to Teruhashi alone.
Her Mom obliges silently as she excuses herself.
“I'll go to the kitchen for a while, I’ll leave you to youngster alone.” Tapping Teruhashi”s shoulder that made her half-shrug as it registers to her slowly what Kurumi uttered.
“Ah! Yes, sure Auntie. If you need help let me know!” Teruhashi smiled awkwardly.
Kurumi shaking her head in disapproval “No need Kokomi-chan, you need to talk to Ku-chan, right? I can handle it alone.” She said that made the pretty girl beside her blush madly.
A sudden discomfort enveloping the pretty girl as she complies “Y-yes Auntie.”
By that, Kurumi walk-out leaving the two behind. Once Kurumi is nowhere in sight Saiki gestures for her to follow him and Teruhashi oblige obediently although she was nervous as heck.
This is it… I’m alone with Saiki-kun, this is the time for Offu- Slapping her face, Iya… No, no, no, What the heck are you thinking Kokomi? this is not the time for offu, I need to speak with Saiki-kun
mumbling to herself without realizing that the guy in her thought knows what she was thinking.
Sighing in grief. Yare, yare… this is troublesome. How can I make her believe that I’m just a normal guy? So she can leave!
Is what running in his thought.
Both were uneasy about their thoughts as they arrive at Saiki's room, he let Teruhashi walks in first.
I’m at Saiki-kun's room. Just the two of us! Oh! My God… am I blushing? No, no I shouldn’t blush… Relax Kokomi, you need to calm
Arguing to herself as she struggles to calm down and Saiki, on the other hand, was starting to get annoyed.
Yare, yare… how can we even talk if she’s busy complaining about herself? And what the hecks with offu? I’m not saying it. I should just make her leave! I don’t even know what to say!
Saiki was also uneasy to make the move. However, he gestures to Teruhashi that brought her back to reality to sit on the bed as he sat on his armchair facing her.
Teruhashi was fidgeting for a moment, thinking of ways to start the conversation, because the psychic himself was just staring boringly at her with his signature dead-pan expression which unsettled her.
What’s with him? I cannot believe this! we’re just alone and he’s not doing anything….
After realizing what she thought. She felt chills run down her spine as her face reddens at her thoughts and making more excuses for herself.
Wah… wah… what am I thinking?? What I meant was, he should talk to me first. Yes, that’s what I mean. Don’t get me wrong!
Arguing with her inner thought without even knowing that the guy in front of her can read her mind.
Sighing in frustration How can we even start if she’s like that. Yare, yare
Okay, Kokomi relax.
taking a deep breath she glances at Saiki. Heart racing speedily “Saiki-kun” she called and Saiki stared at her with his dead-pan expression.
“I-I’m here to ask… no to confirm somethin-“
Is it about the news?
he cut of Teruhashi and finish what she’s about to say.
She was taken by surprise at how he just said the words she was having a hard time letting out. She coughs to ease the situation as she composed herself. Taking a deep breath, and stared at Saiki.
Nodding in agreement “Yes, that’s it. I mean, I… no! we want to confirm it to you… we’ll believe at whatever you’ll say!” grasping her hands tightly and her heart was beating fast as she waits for his answer.
Then what if, that rumor was true? What if, I am a psychic. What will you do?
Asking in commandment which Teruhashi was taken aback.
Silence took over her, she opens her mouth to answer but no words were heard.
This … how should I answer that? I don’t want it to be true but… but…
While she’s busy with her thoughts alone unbeknownst to her, the psychic was also troubled at what she was thinking but, of course, being a tsundere himself his denying the thoughts.
As I thought, of course, who would want a person like me! I'm not normal.
Lowering his head as his eyebrows furrowed, without his knowledge, he felt sad no he felt troubled. He was feeling sad but because of his nature, that feeling is unfamiliar to him. He shrugs it off and began to sigh in dismay as he grins.
Yare, yare! What’s with these uneasy feelings?
Annoyed at the unknown feeling he had. He chuckled at how ridiculous he looks right now and started to ruffled his hair in dismayed. He began to look back at Teruhashi to check on her again and to explain that it was just a hypothesis without any meaning so he can cast her out of his house. But, unexpectedly, the thought that lingering on the bishoujo's mind bewildered Saiki that he was stunned in silence as he stared dumbfounded at her.
No. Kokomi don’t be scared. It was just a what-if question. Then if he really was a psychic? What should I do in this kind of situation? Should I be afraid, scared? No. I shouldn’t judge him base on that fact. I mean he’s not that bad, right? If he was a bad guy, an enemy of mankind then, at this moment on I’m sure this is not how our lives exist?”
The thought alone was enough to that make Saiki stunned. He was shocked that his mouth was slightly agape.
I should ask him again… whatever it takes, I’m here to comport him not to judge him. I need to compose myself. Whatever his answer will be… I will be okay and I’ll wait for an explanation. I’m sure there is one.
While the pretty girl in their class was busy with her thoughts. The psychic on the other hand was grinning to himself as he watched the troubled girl in front of him.
Yare, yare… I should come clean! Whatever, I was ready to be known by everyone when I took of this device, including them. I should tell them!
sighing in contentment. He was now ready to face them… and her. This moment on, he was ready to speak the truth. Whether or not they'll accept him. But deep within his heart he really wants them to accept him.
When he was about to talk to her by a telepathic, Teruhashi spoke first as she called him.
“Saiki-kun” she called staring at Saiki's eyes with a determined expression.
While Saiki wore his deadpan expression as he watches her.
This is it, inhale and exhale kokomi. boosting her self-esteem. Clenching the fabric of her uniform to calm her nerves.
“What… wh- I mean” she stumbled upon saying her first words. Feeling embarrass. She took a deep breath and sighed. “You said earlier that, what if you are a psychic; is that really true or are you just-“
I’m a PSYCHIC
Without wasting any more seconds he blurted out telepathically to the girl in front of him. He didn’t even finish what she’s about to say, and so the bishoujo was statically rendered speechless, with her eyes wide open, mouth agape and even her mind was silent or just saying WA WA WA at the moment, and that made the psychic grin at her reaction.
What the… did… Saiki-kun… did I hear it right?
Staring at the pink-headed boy for another confirmation.
I’m a Psyc-
This time, it was Teruhashi who didn’t let him finished, as she was panicking internally. And convincing herself she heard it all wrong.
No, no, no… this is not true what the… I mean, Saiki-kun is a Psyc… NOOOOO
Facing down, she covered her whole face with both of her hands as she shook her head madly.
Is it? Sa-Saiki-kun? P-p-p-psychic??? NOOOOO, what… Kokomi get a grief!
Slowly opening some of her fingers that hiding her finger to glance at the pink-headed boy; checking his face confirming something. But as soon as she saw his face. Her cheeks took a dip shade of red.
Wa… why am I getting flustered?? This is not the time to admire. Gosh!
The perfectionist pretty girl was having a hard time organizing her mind that the psychic himself is getting amused to it.
Sighing to himself, Yare, yare this girl is too troublesome!
Groaning unsatisfied but the truth is, he was having a good time seeing a flustered Teruhashi although, he saw it gazillion times already so he was immune to it. Nevertheless, this is the first for the girl in front of him.
He suddenly had the urge to teased the girl more. Grinning at his selfish whims rather, his amusement.
Are you done with your thought?
Asking the blunette o-so-sudden that she shrug upon hearing his voice. Correction through the telepathic way.
Still organizing herself, fixing her hair as she eyed the psychic suspiciously. She coughs to ease the mood
“ehem…” “You said earlier that you’re a psychic? How can you—”
How can I prove it to you… is what you want to say, right?
Again, for the second time, the perfectionist pretty girl was stunned in silence. Mouth agape, confused, bewildered and when it dawned on her what Saiki stated. She jumped on his bed, shock written all over her face with a feeling of mix emotion. Struggling to find her words to respond to him, she breathes slowly to muster some courage to speak while pointing her finger unto him.
“Y-you…” with shaking voice. “Yo-you can read my mind?” eyes wide open and guarding herself in case of something as she stared at Saiki anxiously.
Sighing for the umpteenth time, Yare, yare how troublesome! He thought for the moment as he cast his head down.
You were the one who wants me to confess, right? As I said I’m a psychic, I’m not a normal human being like you guys.
He groaled for some reason as he started to look back at her just to see how anxious the girl was and how her thought was running through her mind. Again, he felt that nasty feeling he had a while ago. His hands tightened into a fist.
Tsk… he moaned grumpily. He jumped out on his seat grumpily as he rammed his hair out of annoyance.
Meanwhile, Teruhashi stiffened at his sudden movement. She began to tighten her hold on the blanket. But, when, she got a glimpse of how he looks; she quickly softened and felt dismayed at her sudden approach to the situation, she promised herself that whatever she'll hear from the psychic himself she will never change the fact that he was a good guy.
But looking at her now, staring at the bedsheet with a disappointed look, and reflecting on how she acts in front of him. She places her hands on the fabric of her uniform near her beating heart. Again, she glances at the discomfort psychic to check on him and to also said something to erase the unwanted air roaming at the room.
Inhaling and exhaling, she called the pinkish head boy. “Sa-Saiki-kun”
Peeking at her halfhearted You don’t need to stress about it. I mean… I was expecting that kind of reaction.
As soon as that escape from him, the girl’s eyes went wide… listening carefully at what he was about to say.
As what your mind is telling, yes. I’m a bad guy, I have the means to control everyone with just a snap. Even now, if I wanted to… I can erase your memory of what happened this instant. And you will never know, even if you turn grey. I can read your thoughts loud and clear and I say… your reaction is what I’m expectin—
Slamming her hands on the bed, “Yes, you’re right! I was scared! I was really scared when I’ve learned about you over the internet, news or whatever… but still, I don’t want to believe a second of it unless you’re the one to clarify it.”
And yet, I did clarify it. But your reaction is splendid. You even thought I was a monster….
Clenching the bedsheet tightly “Of course, what do you want me to think? Who in their right mind would think that a psychic even exist? I’m just a normal human being. And as you said earlier, my reaction was what you’re expecting… how do you want me to react then? Ne Saiki-kun…”
With their exchange words… Teruhashi felt even worse to herself at how stupid she was acting and how confused she was as well. And now, she was sobbing nonstop. She was fighting not to let it out a while ago but, she was hurt that she can’t help but to let it all out.
On the other hand, the psychic felt uneasy as soon as he saw her crying. He felt tense, he didn’t even know nor have a clue on what to do as he was unfamiliar with that kind of thing. So, he let her do her thing and wait till she calms down, he sat on his armchair again scratching his cheeks out of discomfort.
And as soon as Teruhashi calms down, she darted her eyes at the guy in front to face him for another confrontation.
Sniffing “I-… I want to apologize for my earlier assumption towards you!” she said to the young psychic that made his face snorted.
“Really… I’m at wrong to judge you but hey… at the very end of it, I’m just a normal human…”
Actually, your not! He blurted out that made the pretty girl eyed him suspiciously.
Groaning tiredly, I mean… you can order all your admirer. But, Not me. All you want without expecting or some of them were expecting from you in return. He explained further.
Teruhashi only stared at him with confusion until she realized what he meant. At that, she boasted from laughter. Now the tears streaming down her face were not because of irritation or sadness but pure happiness and surprise.
Eyebrows furrowed in confusion, confused as to why she was laughing. Because, to Saiki, he is sure that he didn’t add some jokes on his remarks so, seeing her laugh like that was confusing to him.
Teruhashi who’s laughing nonstop was now pressing her hand over her stomach while the other was wiping her happy tears.
Saiki was just staring dumbfounded at her. And now, Teruhashi took a deep breath but her laughter was still visible enough that she can now speak normally again. She stared at her classmate and for the last time chuckled which the latter raised an eyebrow at how confused he was.
“Okay, okay, this is quite embarrassing.” Wiping her tears, “Now that I realize it more… you mentioned you can read my mind?” he quickly nods as he waited for her to finished her words this time.
“T-then… you know all my thoughts. I mean, running through my mind all this time?”
Saiki nodding at her, while Teruhashi is flustered and some pinkish hues appearing on her cheeks up to her ears.
“Then…” gulping nervously while playing with her index fingers “Then… you probably already know what… I mean, you know my feelings,—”
No, you got it wrong! He blurted out that made the girl flinch.
“What do you mean by I got it wrong?” she asked the psychic.
Well, this is the right time to tell her that misunderstanding. Since she knows now that I’m a psychic? That way, her feelings for me will vanish!
Nodding approvingly at his plan he looks back at pretty girl adored by God.
You remember the time when… I should say, August 6
At the mention of that unforgettable moment for her, her body stiffened her heart was beating fast as she waited what exactly was what he wants to convey.
That day, We did meet. I was walking down the street when you suddenly approach me. I was doing my very best to avoid you no matter. And also because I don’t want to be exposed to a lot of people who greatly admires you, and so being noticed by you will beat the purpose of it. But, you’re persistent. And so suddenly, I saw Nendou from the corner of my eyes and I got tensed because if a second party is involved then that means… you can easily say we did meet and all that and so, once I saw Nendou and before he notices me or us together at that time I teleported myself that instant. And I was really shocked when you thought that you like me… that’s why you thought you were hallucinating me.
Once he was done explaining, random thoughts were running through Teruhashi's mind. Forgetting that her companion can read minds.
You know I can read your mind, right?
Startled yet again, she flinches at the sudden voice from him.
Stumbling through her words as she says. “O-oh yeah. I forgot! Seriously this is embarrassing…
As soon as that escape her mind. Saiki rose from his seat and walk over to his drawer to get something, she was just staring and also at the same time admiring the guy and because of her day-dreaming, she didn’t notice Saiki was walking towards her.
Here take this…
Raising his arm to Teruhashi's eye level as he handed over something to her and she took it. Raising her eyebrows in curiosity as she looks at what he gave to her.
As soon as she saw it… her eyes glitter as she was now blushing madly…
A… a ring?? Saiki gave me a—
Before she manages to finish her words Saiki corrected her before she took it the wrong way.
Don’t get your hopes up! That ring, wear it so I won’t be able to read your mind.
He said nonchalantly which the pretty girl sighed in dismay.
“Oh! Sure” she stared at it first, asking herself if that small thing can hide her thoughts from the psychic accompanying her.
Yare, yare… Saiki thought for a while.
That’s a germanium ring… at that, Teruhashi looked at him attentively.
Wear that, if your feeling uneasy about me reading your thoughts all the time. Even though I can’t help it… then wear the ring.
He explained. And without any thought, she wore it on her index finger feeling some butterfly on her stomach as she stared on the germanium ring that Saiki owned admiringly. Giggling to herself, and by that, a certain psychic felt shivers run down his spines and wondering what nonsense thoughts are lingering on her mind.
Thus, Teruhashi tried if the ring he gave is working. Eyeing suspiciously at her companion.
Okay then, let see… rubbing her chin. Shutting her eyes close I love you Saiki-kun blushing madly, slowly opening her left eye to check on Saiki’s expression, and as soon as she saw him; his expression still didn’t change. He still wore that bored look on his face.
To Saiki's case, he was having a withdrawal if he should really give that thing to the most troublesome woman he knows. And also, looking back at her, as soon as she wore the ring he saw how she was rather acting strange. It was making him uneasy. Moreover, her face was now in a dip shade of red.
The heck is she thinking this time? I hope it's not something so troublesome. Yare, yare… sighing tiredly.
he’s not answering me? did that work? He really can’t read my mind? What if… his just taking advantag- No, no, no Kokomi Saiki is nothing like that! Erase that thought. Shu shu… for now, I’ll believe in him.
Again, arguing with herself as Saiki was just staring at her dumbfounded.
Yare, yare… sighing tiredly
So… what else do you want to know? He asked which brought her back to reality.
Stunned for a moment. She took a deep breath and composed herself.
“Then… now that I confirm with myself that you really are what the news is saying then… we need to device a plan so that, we can… I mean, you can avoid this situation!” rubbing her chin as she thinks of a plan to help Saiki.
Starring at her with his bored look he asked, Then how can you help me?
Taken aback, she tilted her head to think of something. “I’m not really sure myself since… I went here believing or wishing that all the news spreading on the internet was fake.” Bowing her head apologetically. “I’m sorry Saiki-kun, but…”
Bending over Saiki's bed as she slammed her hands on his bedsheet that startled the psychic.
“If you’ll let us… we can help you by all means. We’re not capable of helping you with how you help us but, if you…”
At that moment Teruhashi went silent. A sudden realization hoards her mind at the word help, she suddenly remembers all the times that somehow made their life a living hell if Saiki didn’t save them. An example of that, on their school trip, when they can’t go to Okinawa because it was raining hard. Second, when they were inside the plane and suddenly went wrong, lastly when she was about to be attacked by a giant bear and all this time she thought that it was just a dream. She realized then, all of those were because Saiki saves them and her from danger. And another thought of tragedy surges her mind, and that event was when Saiko's shipwrecks and they got stranded by an unknown island. They were safe because Saiki was with them and he was helping silently without asking anything in return. There is still good deed that Saiki manages to do for them. And that alone, made her disgust at herself thinking badly of him a while ago.
Slowly, tears are flowing in her beautiful blue eyes. And Saiki got startled at her sudden action. Again, he felt discomfort not knowing what to do in this awkward situation.
Why are you crying? Asking the girl timidly.
Teruhashi, on the other hand, wipes her tears away and looks at Saiki as she smiled at him warmly and genuinely.
“I was thinking… you said earlier you were a bad guy and all but, now that I’ve realized it… you’re not! Not an enemy of mankind, not a monster and all bad things I’ve thought of you a while ago. Again, I’m really sorry about that Saiki-kun.” Bowing her head apologetically to the psychic as he stared at her with his deadpan expression but he was confused since he can’t read her mind. He was anxious to know what is running through her mind right now and why is she acting so strange?
He wanted to know that answer but doesn’t want to ask… he saw her change stance, now with her feet touching on the floor, seating properly again as she held her hands tightly placing it on her lap.
Smiling at him. “Thank you Saiki-kun, you save us a bunch of times already” again, bowing her head but this time not to ask for forgiveness but to thank him whole-heartedly for the good deeds he showed them without their knowledge at the time.
What are you saying? Asking the bishoujo because he was really confused and unsettled at how she was behaving.
“You save us multiple times already. Remember that school trip? A lot happened back then. Also, most especially the shipwreck. Because you were there—”
Oh, that! Well, particularly it was my fault. All of it! He said as a matter of fact.
Teruhashi tilted her head out of confusion to what he said.
“What do you mean?” asked bewildered.
Scratching his chin. Well, particularly, It was mine but also your fault as well.
With that, the pretty girl got more confused.
“What!!!!” she grimaced.
You took of this device. Pointing at his device. You see when you pulled this out tragedy may occur. When that giant bear nearly attacks you… you got in that place because you took off my controlling device. I was the one who teleports you in that place without my knowledge. And about the shipwreck… well, it seems you get the geese now hah?
He explained neatly as possible so she can understand him and to not cause any more misunderstanding.
While hearing all that explanation she swallowed hard.
Oh, I see!
Is what she can manage to say. Although, now, she understood everything.
“I understand. But still, my feelings won’t change. Even after all that, you still save us. And yet I need to apologize again for the stupidity I've caused. Well, you can't blame me; at that moment I just wanted to help you relax so you can sleep in a much better way. I didn’t know your circumstances back then.” Smiling as if everything is settled now.
“Look Saiki-kun, if you can… we really wanted to help you! Please, let us… let us help you in any way we can.” She pleaded the young psychic with her signature puppy-dog-eyes. Well, that didn’t faze the boy as he was just staring at her with his bored-looking expression. She sighs in defeat.
Sheesh… I really can’t please this guy hah? Should I give up? Sighing to herself as she took a deep breath and waited for his answer.
They still don’t know the thing about me! So how sure are you that they’ll accept me, the true me? He interrogated the girl without any interest in mind what answer she’ll say.
“Saiki-kun, don’t belittle them… if I can accept you… The real you. Then, I’m certain they can too. I mean… we are your friends, right?” smiling warmly at the guy with his eyes slightly wide open.
He grins knowing that what Teruhashi stated was true. He was sure that whatever it takes they will accept him for who he was.
He rose from his seat and walks over to his window, staring blankly at what was outside. While Teruhashi was eyeing his every move. Until Saiki spoke again of course in a telepathic way. She was attentively listening to whatever he was about to say.
Yare, yare. Then… do whatever you all want! You all are troublesome anyway!
Still staring at the window absentmindedly as a grin appeared on his face. He was feeling satisfied as of now and for some reason, was it because of her? Well, he is a tsundere so basically, he doesn’t want to admit that even for himself. For now.
Meanwhile, Teruhashi giggled at the thought she succeeded at persuading Saiki and can give good news for everyone tomorrow as school starts. They need to establish a plan to help Saiki be just a normal human being again for the others so they can still hang out with him and knowing him fully well; aside from him being a psychic.
Still giggling. She also rose from the bed and walks over where Saiki is, she steps beside him and also looks over the window.
“Yeah, leave it to us!” She excitedly exclaimed which the latter grins as a response. Glancing at him made Teruhashi blush and she felt good at the moment and wishing that this day will never end.
Again, she tried to talk to him through her mind because she knows very well that he can’t hear her. She looks back at the window and smiled with satisfaction.
OMG guys... I would like to apologize that in the previous chapter, I made some sort of mistake and I'm sure all of you notice it! All this time I thought his name was mentioned "Kobayasu" but instead it was "Kuboyasu" arrrrrrg.... Seriously this is embarrassing.
also, because I didn't had the chance to upload a new chapter last week, and to make it up for it... I'll give you a long-ass chapter this time.
And so, the extra note is done. I hope all of you will like this Saiki and Teruhashi interaction. There will still be more in the future. So stay tuned. 👋
