I waited for the person who is supposed to be here and finally, she ca with her shoulders slouched. She forgot her lunch yet again. She had a hand on her stomach and it was growling like a lion. She is really hungry.
"Shiba, food," she said and placed her face on the teacher's podium. Right now, she was completely different from when she was in the class. Well, that is quite obvious.
I took out the other lunch box and picked it up with my bag and sitting down at the front desk, passed it to her. She took it from my hands and quickly started eating it. She choked on it one ti but hit hard on her chest making her breast bounce with perfect giggle physics if sothing like that exists.
"Sensei, slow down or you will probably choke yourself to death. You are too heavy so I won't be able to take you to even the infirmary," I said earning a flick on the head. "Ouch."
"Don't you know not to talk to a woman like this?" she said crossing her arms and standing straight. The lunch was finished and I took the lunch box and placed it in my bag. "Phew, that hit the spot. Thanks for the lunch as always Shiba."
"It's fine sensei. You always make stay back to explain the lessons so this is the least I could do," I said taking out my book.
"That wouldn't happen if you don't sleep in my class."
"Maybe I do this to have so ti to just talk to you," I said leaning on my desk resting my face on my hand. "You are a really dedicated teacher sensei. It is sothing I really admire."
"Enough with the flattery," she said averting her face.
Oh, did I tell you that she is technically my aunt?
She and my mother knew each other since school and they were really good friends back then. Both of them fell for my dad but he fell in love with mom but sensei did not take it to heart. She was even the maid of honor for their wedding. She is a beautiful woman but is a little less feminine in behavior and can't cook. That is why she dates a guy and then breaks up soon after.
I am sure the guys would say that she was a lot of work but that can also be her charming part but then again it depends on the person. I just find that part of her charming, she is like a big sister I never had who I also have to take care of sotis.
"Excessive and insincere praise, given especially to further one's own interests, that is what flattery ans. Please don't lump what I say with such shallow thoughts. Just stating facts doesn't count as flattery oh sensei of mine," I said dramatically raising my right and putting my left hand on my chest. "Do people act like this is Shakespeare's plays? I an even n played as won back then so I wonder."
"I am an English teacher, not a historian. Now start writing that paper and I can help you with it if you get stuck. Write it on the play "Macbeth". That is a play I like a lot," she said and I got my paper and pencil ready.
"The story of the brave Scottish general who could only be killed by a man who was not born of a woman and Macbeth was destined to be the king. Consud by ambition, he killed King Duncan and overtook the throne. He ruled over his people with fear as he had to commit more and more murders and turned into a tyrant ruler. Then Prince Duncan, the second son of Duncan started raising an army in England, and Macduff who was inford that his family was slaughtered by Macbeth joined the army. They went into an all-out war and Macbeth fought knowing he could not be killed. He clashed swords with Macduff and they were head to head. Then he got to know Macduff was not born of a woman but was taken out before the due ti. Hearing this, he lost the will to fight and was killed by Macduff who took his head as a trophy. The story teaching us not to be too rash while following our ambition because it can lead to our demise. Also, not to lose will at any point. Had he not lost the will to fight in the end, who knows, he might have won. That one right?" I said tapping my pencil on the table.
"I know you know that story very well, no need to flex on like that," sensei replied and I nodded and started writing the paper. "So, you look a bit tired today, what happened?"
"Don't even make start..."
I ended up telling her everything which happened to from this morning till now and sensei only nodded in agreent being surprised at so tis. While it was all over, she rubbed her temple and leaned on the podium.
"Well, I can say that what she is doing is not an act. No girl will ever go that far but then again, breaking into your house and all is a bit too far," she said to and I nodded while writing my paper.
"I know that and it is kind of creeping out a little. Why would she take such a sudden interest in ? I an, have you looked at ? There are no good points in ," I said getting to the part when Macbeth's wife killed herself under pressure.
"If you say that then you are really underestimating yourself," she said. "I an, you help anyone in need. You are good at studies but then again you are pretty lazy so it cancels it out a lot. You are not ugly..."
"Could have just said not bad looking and maybe then I would have thought better about myself."
"My point is, there are girls who will fall crazy in love with you. You just don't know it unless you get out of that shell of yours. As for Tsubaki, it is a bit concerning but I don't think there are any ill intentions behind her actions though they are a bit...unusual." She walked over and sat down at the chair next to .
"Maybe but I still don't know what to say about it. I an she even straight up confessed her feelings and I have just brushed it aside, it kind of frustrates ." I let out a sigh and then wrote a little about the play's background itself.
"Then you have two options," she said putting two fingers before . "Either wait till your feelings sort out or just ignore her because right now, you can't do anything."
I let out a sigh and chuckled a little. She may not be the most reliant person but she is pretty wise for her age.
"You thought sothing rude, didn't you?"
And scary too.
I was finally done with my paper after so ti and handed it to her. She gave a thumbs up and started explaining the lesson today again and I made notes as she said so. It took so ti and the sun started setting. With the last bell, she looked at and closed her book.
"That is enough for today but seriously, you should stop being so lazy. You can easily be the best in academics," she said.
"Nah, I don't feel like it. Maybe I will learn more English and beco a professor in that subject," I said leaning back on my chair.
"That would need to be good in other subjects too," she said shattering my only future plan.
"Then I will probably work at a convenience store," I said while packing my stuff.
"Since you did such a good job, how about I take out to eat? My treat," she said and I agreed imdiately.
I quickly packed my stuff and sensei went to the faculty room to get her stuff too. I was standing outside the school building and I had this feeling that soone was staring at from afar. I could not pinpoint from where it ca but I did have that feeling, that feeling that makes your body shiver. Turning around, I saw nothing but still had that feeling of being watched. What is this?
With the free ti in my hands, I thought if there was anything I could do so I took out my phone and saw the news only to be depressed. The light novel I wanted to buy today has been sold out. The other copies will take about a week to co. Oh, how fate is so cruel on . Oh, our guardian in heaven why do you hate this little peasant so much? What do you want from this puny creature?
"Kazuki, what are you doing?" I heard a voice behind and I saw sensei standing there.
I looked at myself and while thinking those things, I was moving my body around in a dramatic way. Resting my muscles, I looked back at sensei who was wearing a black coat on and had her hair tied in a ponytail.
"I was just ssing around Natsumi-san," I said.
It was a rule that we made not to address each other the way we normally do on the school premises. There, we are just students and teachers but now that both of us are outside the school gate, it was alright to call her casually.
"So, where to? I was thinking we go to that yaki niku place that opened not far away," she said showing a flyer in her hand. They did have a big discount on it so it was not a bad idea.
"You sure know how to save money even if you have a house of your own," I said leaning on the wall.
"And you would still not co and live with though I am your official guardian. What was it? I want to be a responsible individual, am I right?" she said in a mocking tone.
"I am still working on doing it, just you wait Natsumi-san."
"Sure, sure. Let's go."
We started walking side by side to the place Natsumi-san suggested and I still could not shake off the feeling of being watched. Being a bit concerned, I looked behind from ti to ti making sure Natsumi-san does not realize it. We soon reached the yaki niku place and we were taken to a table for two.
We sat down and ordered our food. It soon arrived and was placed before us one by one to be cooked. It was honestly pretty good, I could see the soft smile on Natsumi-san's face while eating the at. She has a pretty big appetite and I still wonder how does she maintain her figure even after eating a lot? Is this genetics or just the work of God?
"How about both?" she said surprising .
"How did you know what I was thinking? Are you an esper? Looks like I have to stay away from you a little now," I said to her getting in a defensive position.
"No, I was asking if you want to eat chicken next or beef or if both at the sa ti," she said to pointing at the four pieces of at being cooked.
"Only you can co up with a bizarre idea to eat it together, I will have the beef," I said picking up the piece of at.
"So, what were you thinking?" she asked after stuffing the slab of chicken in her mouth.
"I was wondering how you can eat so much and still maintain such a good figure," I said out my thought.
"And why are you so curious about it?"
"I am a human, curiosity is my driving force. Then again, I am still a kid and my curiosity exceeds a lot more than others. Well, you won't exactly understand it now that you ar--"
I was stopped mid-sentence when I felt sothing thrusting in my mouth. I looked at Natsumi-san who had a kind smile on her face and her chopsticks were thrust inside my mouth. What am I supposed to do in this situation? Lick it?
"Complete that sentence and I might even take your voice away by mistake. Understood?" she said such scary words with a smile on her face which sent chills down my spine. How is this possible?
I quickly nodded my head up and down and she took out the chopsticks and continued eating her food with the sa ones. They were disposable ones so it would be much better to use a different one though.
"Isn't it more hygienic to use another one? You can just throw those," I suggested.
"Do you not brush your teeth?" she asked an unexpected question.
"I do."
"Then there is no problem," she said and continued eating.
"I don't think that is what I ant."
"What? Do you seriously worry about the indirect kiss stuff? Grow up kid, these things an nothing to ," she said poking my cheek with the sa chopstick.
"Say this to when I actually beco an adult."
"Then I will probably be on my death bed at that ti, all alone," she said the last part while slouching her shoulder.
"Don't worry, if, by the ti I get a job and you are still single, I will find soone worthy for you. A fine woman like you is hard to get. Also, your previous dates have peas for the brain if they cannot see your charm," I said leaning back because I was done with my food.
"You really just flirted with an adult woman without knowing, do you realize that?" she said in a teasing voice.
"Why would it count as flirting when I am stating facts about how great the person I see as my older sister is?" I replied and she smirked.
"Older sister? Hmm, then what do you want Onee-chan to do?" she said changing her tone. Why am I getting a weird feeling of déjà vu?
"To quickly finish her food so and drink so that we both can go ho. I want to go ho and read so manga already."
"Okay, okay," she said coming back in character.
