The classes were pretty boring that day for Taro at least. It wasn't much different from any other day, however with Taro's ntality, he couldn't enjoy taking them even when he was teaching classes for the adorable second grade. Well, it wasn't just Shivani who noticed Taro's aloofness. The other students noticed it as well, since it was pretty hard to miss. While explaining a chapter, Taro randomly stopped talking and looked at the distance for no reason. Although the students relished the free ti they got due to this, they were kinda concerned for their teacher's well-being.
As for the teachers in his block, they didn't particularly care about his behavior because they never noticed it. So, as long as he kept his mouth shut, no one gave a damn about him. He kinda liked this though, so he didn't complain about it in his mind. However, he did miss his roommates with whom he could have a decent chat with at situations like this.
However, the most problematic part for Taro wasn't all this. He didn't get why he was this gloomy for the entire day. Like, he knew that the debate was hellish, however he never would've thought that it would cause such a dent on him. Like, Thankappan instantly recovered from the trauma in the morning while the other two recovered as well, when the trauma was actually heavier for them than he had. In his case, he didn't know what to do. He did believe that his feelings loitering around this topic was wasteful, however. This was truly the worst; his awareness of himself over acting in a situation didn't help him a bit.
Anyway, the day ended without any kinda major events, just the way he liked it. Taro preferred the days he spent as a teacher more than any other odd jobs he did back on his planet or on Earth. It made him feel like he was a normal person after all, a feeling he sought after for all these years. In disaster managent and construction work, he always felt as if he unnecessarily stuck out. However, it was different here. No one gave two fucks about what he did, which gave him great pleasure.
So, he was about to leave the premises, however saw Shivani having so kinda conversation with Juan and decided to wait for her. The conversation was kinda quick. It ended with Juan handing sothing to Shivani.
"Oh, Mr Sadanandan! What are you doing here?" She asked.
"What else? I was waiting for you. Shall we go?" He asked.
"Sure." She nodded her head and ran towards her class to pick up her bag before returning to Taro's side.
They, as always, had a walk where neither of them tried whatsoever to hold a conversation. Taro felt it was weird. He knew for a fact that he wasn't socially awkward around people back in Wados. However, it changed vastly when he reached Earth. He believed that not to speak much due to the problems with the translator played a huge factor in his newfound social awkwardness. However, these phenona was multiplied almost thrice whenever he was around Shivani. He believed that she was a natural conversation repellent; a good person to keep around when soone's bugging around.
Anyway, he didn't like this atmosphere when they were alone. Like, he'd be fine if she were to jump in between a conversation with so person he didn't like. However, when it concerns himself, he wanted her to actually hold a conversation. He was a pretty selfish person in that aspect.
To break the ice between them, Taro was the first to speak up yet again. "So, what did Juan give you?" He asked.
"Hmm?"
"Well, I saw him passing sothing onto you. I asked what it was. I an if it's so illegal stuff, I have to report it to the school faculty, you know that, right?" Taro chuckled. Knowing both the students, he knew they wouldn't be involved in so shady shit, however better safe than sorry, right?
"Ah, it's nothing like that. He wanted to buy sothing from Mundur. Since I'm going there today anyway, I thought I'd do it for him." She replied.
"You're going to Mundur?" Taro asked.
"Yea! It's not just ! Abhirami and Sujatha are coming with as well!" She spoke.
"Hmm, that's great" Taro replied.
"By the way If you're free and willing, you can co with us too, you know? You can call in the other guys as well." She mumbled.
"Well Maybe not. I'll just ruin the fun ti you're having." He replied.
"Ah, don't worry about that. We're not fun free spirits anyway, so we'll be fine with you around. We were kinda planning to invite you beforehand, so Anyway, I didn't know how to bring up this topic without feeling like I'm becoming a bit forceful about it, like what I'm doing right now." She spoke as she looked kinda dejected.
Taro sighed. "I don't have a problem with sticking around if you're fine with it." He replied.
"Yea, we're totally cool with it." Shivani assured.
"Oh, Shivani! You're back And with Mr, Sadanandan! Did you tell him about it?" Abhirami went straight to the point. Seeing Abhirami makes Taro relieved in so form. It wasn't that he beca socially awkward, it's just that so people existed on this planet who emit strong social outgoing and awkward vibes, like the two people beside him, so he actually ends up adapting to their behaviors.
Anyway, the three t up with Sujatha a little later, on the world's longest corridor and soon enough, they t up with Taro's roommates and together, they headed up to Mundur.

"Ha, I still can't believe that Shivani ended up asking out on a date like this" Thankappan, the one extrely flattered when they asked him to accompany them, replied.
"But I didn't ask you to co though! I just asked Mr Sadanandan." Shivani replied bluntly to which Thankappan chuckled.
"Well, inviting 'Mr Sadanandan' effectively ans inviting as well, since the guy absolutely can't stay away from !" Thankappan replied as he clung on Taro's arms, an action that Taro himself despised.
"Seems like soone would like to go to jail for thinking like a pedophile. Or much better, seems like soone's asking for to bash their skull." Taro replied, in a deep ominous voice which instantly made Thankappan shut his mouth up.
So, the group ended up shopping for things like a new toenail clipper and stuff. However, after about five minutes of wandering through the streets of Mundur center, they were clueless. It seed as if the girls hadn't exactly planned out the journey. Well, they did plan to shop for quite a bit of ti and then head to the bakery nearby under the guise of being tired and wanting a refreshnt. However, they never expected that they wouldn't have anything to shop for. Like, even Sujatha, who believed that she was a spender, couldn't think of stuff to buy. And even if she did, there was soone else who ssed up the plan.
That day, Abhirami showed them how much of a miser she was. Like, the money wasn't even her, it was Juan's, who lent it to Shivani upon seeing the class teacher's dampened mood to cheer him up. However, Abhirami couldn't help but be picky about almost anything they tried to buy, saying that it was useless, and she could show them a place where they could buy that stuff in a bargain. It got to a point where the girls regretted bringing her out on this particular occasion.
Since, the shopping event doesn't look like it was gonna work, they decided to skip it entirely. "Mr Sadanandan, don't you feel thirsty?" Shivani asked.
"Not really-"
"Well, I do. So, let's go to that bakery. They got pretty great milkshakes." Shivani said as she headed towards the said bakery. And pretty much everyone else followed, except for Taro.
"Wait a minute. Didn't you wanna buy sothing for Juan?" He asked.
"Ah...." She suddenly rembered the lie that she fabricated and started searching her shopping bag desperately for sothing that actually looked like a thing that Juan would use. Thankfully, she found one. "This! He asked for this!"
"A toenail clipper with a rather girl... bright design?" He asked. He was gonna say girlish, but since everyone had their own personal preferences, he didn't wanna badmouth it.
"Well, he said he was fine with any design. Rather, he was all about the utility." Shivani replied.
"Is that so?" Taro looked suspiciously at the three girls, which made sweat beads flow from their foreheads. However, thankfully for them, there was soone covering for them unintentionally at that mont.
"Oi, Ta Sadanandan! Are you coming? Can't you hear the cry of the ladies here? They want a drink, man! So, don't act like this and let's head there." Thankappan spoke with a smile.
Taro sighed. "Ah, what a sha! I have to listen to a lolicon simp's words now." He mumbled as he headed towards the bakery.
