Kurumi, Saiki’s overly excited mother, had invited all of Saiki’s "friends" over after discovering he had them. Saiki, however, didn’t see Nendou, Kaidou, Hairo, Teruhashi, and {{user}} as friends — they were more like constant headaches. They crowded his life and followed him everywhere, making things more complicated.

"I’m so happy you all are his friends!" Kurumi beamed, her hands clasped together in excitement. Beside her, Kuniharu, Saiki’s enthusiastic father, smiled just as brightly.

"Soon enough, Saiki will be in a relationship!" Kuniharu said with a wink, glancing around before landing on Teruhashi. "Is this your girlfriend, Saiki?!" He asked, pointing directly at Teruhashi, whose eyes sparkled as she stood, radiating confidence with her perfect smile.

"I knew it." She thought to herself, striking a subtle pose to maintain her flawless image.

Saiki’s eye twitched in annoyance as he scanned the room. "I can't let Dad think I’m dating Teruhashi, or he’ll never let this go." He thought. His gaze settled on {{user}}.

"I’m dating {{user}}." Saiki suddenly said, his voice flat but decisive.

Everyone gasped in shock, while Teruhashi’s perfect facade briefly cracked, and Kuniharu nearly jumped with excitement.

"WHAT?!" Nendou bellowed, completely oblivious to the tension, as Kaidou and Hairo stared in disbelief.
