Until My Spirit Was Destroyed By My Super Yandere Childhood Friend And I Fell Into Darkness - Chapter 5 (Please take care of me, Sensei)

Please take care of me, Sensei

I see……..Surely this is a bad idea if I don’t really work hard on my studies.”

“I knew it. I thought so too.”

The day after Minase-san asked me to teach her how to study, I made her take a test I wrote myself in order to test her ability, in which I picked only the questions that I thought would be on this regular test in five different subjects, and the results were quite terrible.

As it is now, a future of red marks is definitely inevitable.

Of the five subjects, Minase-san must have been poor in science subjects because her results were particularly poor in Math IIB and Basic Chemistry.

“Let’s put off world history B and ancient literature, which can be managed by memorization alone, and focus on science subjects first.”

“Okay, I’ll leave that to Kaito. Please take care of me, Sensei.”

Since there were only three weeks left before the test and the only time left to teach was during lunch break, she must be taught quickly and efficiently.

Because the goal this time is not to be expelled from school, our aim is to avoid red marks in all subjects.

“Then we’ll start with the problems you got wrong in Math II, and I’ll explain them, so open your textbooks to the Equations and Proofs page.”

“Yes sir.”

“Good, then I’ll explain. This problem…..”

I wrote down the formulas and calculations of the problems on loose-leaf paper and explained them carefully one by one.

After the explanation was completed, I asked her to solve similar problems in the textbook.

Then I would explain the problem again and have her solve the next problem, repeating the process several times.

“….the time’s over already? Well, that’s all for today.”

“Kaito, seriously, thank you. It was really easy to understand and I feel like I’m going to do well in the regular tests.”

Hearing Minase-san say such a thing with a happy expression on her face, I couldn’t help but blush.

“That’s not true. The part we did today is still the basics.”

“Oh, really? I had no idea at first, so I thought they were pretty difficult application problems.”

Hearing my words, Minase-san looked extremely surprised.

I was so amused by her that I couldn’t help but start laughing.

“Oh, why are you laughing?”

“Because you started calling that one an application problem, which was funny.”

“If it were that difficult, you’d think so, wouldn’t you?”

Minase-san glared at me like that, but to be honest, I wasn’t scared at all.

She was quite short, so it looked like a small animal was threatening me.

“Oh, Lunch break will be over in three minutes.”

“Uh-oh, if I’m late, it’ll impact my grades, so I need to get back soon.”

“It’ll be bad for me if I receive any more scrutiny, and being late is something I absolutely cannot afford.”

We packed up our belongings, which were spread out on the desk, and began to hurry back to the classroom.

In the end, I succeeded in slipping in just in time, so it looks like my internal score will be fine.

◇　◇　◇　◇　◇　◇　◇

Three weeks had passed quickly since I started studying with Minase-san, and it was the day before the test.

“Yeah, you’re getting it right a lot more than you did in the beginning. You’re like a different person.”

“I know right. Thanks to you, I’ve learned to solve a lot of problems, and I’m really grateful to you.

She’s still not at the top of our grade, but she has improved so much that she can’t be compared to what she was three weeks ago, so she looked very happy to be here.

Incidentally, I had gotten to know Minase-san quite well over the past three weeks, so much so that she now called me “Sensei,” which is a nickname.

“But still, those three weeks really flew by.”

“That’s true. I had a lot of fun studying with Sensei, and the time went by really fast.”

“I’m a little embarrassed when you say that.”

I also had a lot of fun teaching Minase-san my studies over the past three weeks, and before I knew it, I was even looking forward to going to school.

Tomorrow, tests will begin and the school will be dismissed in the morning, so today is the last day to study during lunch break. So now I’m feeling pretty sad.

“Thanks to Sensei, I won’t be expelled from school, and I’m extremely grateful. Thank you.”

“I’m sure you’ll be fine, but don’t ever let your guard down until the end. You never know what’s going to happen in the end.”

“I know that, Sensei is such a worrywart.”

Seeing Minase-san smiling like that made me want to spend more time with her.

I might have fallen in love with Minase-san.

“…… If you want, we can study together like this after this test is over.”

I gathered up my courage and suggested such a thing to Minase-san. Then, she looked surprised for a moment, but soon became happy and opened her mouth.

“Actually, I was going to ask you to do the exact same thing for us, I don’t think I can study alone or anything. Please take care of me moving forward, Sensei.”

“Yeah, me too.”

Hearing Minase-san’s words made me extremely happy, and I responded with a little more emotion than usual.

I might have a grin on my face now.

I was unaware at the time of the blue eyes staring at our exchange from afar.
