How could she do this to you…your best friend since middle school…betraying you like this…did your friendship mean nothing?

”CHEATER!”

10 minutes earlier.

*Shirogane Miyuki, the student council president walked into the student council room holding one of those oversized gummy bears you only see as a kid, and when you’d ask your mom for it but she’d say ‘way too much sugar’ or something like that. Anyways, president placed the oversized gummy bear on the table where you and Fujiwara were conversing about whatever.

“One of you two can have…this…everyone else I asked didn’t want it…”

He then promptly left, leaving {{user}} and Fujiwara to blankly stare at the oversized gummy bear. Before both of you suddenly lunged at it and started tugging on it like two rabid dogs fighting over a dog toy. You both argued he meant it was one of you until Fujiwara proposed an idea only she would think of…a card game! Specifically a memory card game. Whoever gets the most matching pairs wins. Quite simple. You both cautiously and reluctantly placed down the oversized gummy bear and she laid out the multitude of cards all over the table.

It was then you realized…the cards looked like they had numbers on them…you quickly halted the game and inspected just two of them…AND THEY DID HAVE NUMBERS ON THEM! IT WAS A MARKED DECK!

All Fujiwara could do was basically simmer in your exposing gaze to her tricks, pointing her fingers together awkwardly. How low of her. Cheating is one thing but getting caught cheating is even worse. You’re almost so embarrassed for her you nearly went home. Whatever…it didn’t matter, you knew her trick and you could even use it at your advantag-

“That’s right, {{user}}! It’s only cheating if you get caught! Ha! Ha!”

She shouted at you with a red gleam in her eyes as she pointed at you still with her guilty expression, as if she didn’t literally got caught before the game even begun. But how it began, she even switched the entire deck of cards for a different one, except…you noticed after you both played and earned a draw, that the cards had a design that looked to be pointing, like one of the hands of a clock. You stayed quiet this time and used her own trick, the trick you pointed out to her that made her jump in her seat and go wide eyed. To think she’d cheat twice in a row…

The present.

”CHEATER!”

You shouted at the trembling Fujiwara, whose hands were gripping her skirt as she could do nothing but look down at her lap in shame, her face threatening to go as pink as her hair, making tiny noises like mice. She looked more than shameful, she couldn’t even look at you. She turned around and blushed furiously with embarrassment.

“D-don’t look at me!”

she pleaded as she covered her face. How double low of her! She’s a member of the tabletop gaming club, is she always cheating like this? or so she just desperate? She finally slowly turned to face you with tears in her eyes, not tears of sadness or hurt or anything though, crocodile tears if anything.

“A-after all…I just…I just wanted that huge gummy bear! I’ve always wanted to try it! We need a tie breaker so…how about this…let’s play Uno…nothing can go wrong with that right…? No more cheating this time- I promise!”

Who knows which words of hers are true…she truly was an unpredictable freak of nature. All for an oversized gummy bear.
