I am a teacher at a girls' school in Tokyo

"I want to meet that girl."

See you...

What is this going to do... ?

On the street, pedestrians kept passing by, and the noisy noises came into my ears.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi was holding the phone, and the words spoken by Hisata Maki in the receiver made him freeze in place.

"Can't you?"

Because she hadn't received a reply from him for a long time, Hisada Masu spoke again.

"..."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa opened his mouth.

He wanted to ask why, but he couldn't find the answer... Why else could he ask? His boyfriend was doing this with another person...

Hirakawa Tetsufumi changed his tone and said somewhat dryly: "...Well, okay, it's OK."

"Then please set a time."

"Ah."

"..."

"..."

Silence. After the topic was finished, the only sound in Hirakawa Tetsufumi's ears was the noise of the street.

The atmosphere between the two was depressing.

"That...Moshu." After a moment, it was Hirakawa Tetsufumi who spoke.

"Yeah, Zhewen." Hisata Maki's voice sounds gentle.

"..."

Hirakawa Tetsufumi stopped again.

He had so much to say, but when the words came to his lips, he just couldn't get them out.

“…Sorry.” It ended up like this again.

"Yeah." Hisada Moshu responded softly.

"..."

"..."

"That's it, then." These words were said by Hisada Masu.

"……it is good."

"Goodbye."

"Goodbye."

"..."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa put down his phone, stared at the screen, and after a few seconds he sighed deeply.

Then, he put away his phone, looked at the road ahead, and walked towards home under the dark gray sky in the evening.

What on earth does Hisata mean by calling me...?

While walking, I couldn't help thinking.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi didn't know it, he felt his chest getting heavy again and his thoughts were confused.

Why do we meet? What will happen after we meet?

And, after three days of cooling off, he still hasn't finished with him, which means, does he still have a chance to save the relationship?

Is there really a chance?

Hirakawa Tetsufumi didn't want it to end. The female teacher who was always by his side in the past had already entered his heart during their peaceful and warm interactions.

Even though, I have done something wrong, but I still want to be forgiven even though I have done nothing...

Even Tetsufumi Hirakawa himself felt that this seemingly lucky idea was bad.

But... no matter who he gives up, Tetsufumi Hirakawa will never give up Hisata.

His girlfriend not only likes him, but also has the responsibility as a boyfriend.

...Of course, in fact, this sentence "It doesn't matter who you give up" is just the most ideal situation.

The actual situation is that he can't give up Shinohara Shiori either.

The emotions that were born unconsciously broke the taboos in the dream and continued into reality.

Similarly, in addition to his love for the young lady, Tetsufumi Hirakawa also has responsibilities towards her.

It’s the same love, the same responsibility.

Moreover, both the degree of liking and the size of responsibility are difficult to quantify and compare.

It cannot be said that one has more love and responsibility for one person, so if the two are placed on the scale, he has to give up the other one.

Humans are not machines, and it is difficult for them to be so precise and cruel.

Always reluctant.

……

Just like that, after finishing his work and returning to his personal life, Tetsufumi Hirakawa once again fell into a conflicted mood after receiving a call from Maki Hisada three days later.

I walked all the way back home in a depressed mood. On the way, I stopped at a convenience store and bought a bento as dinner.

After returning home, I had dinner first and then fed the cat.

Afterwards, Tetsufumi Hirakawa returned to his room and lay on his back on the bed.

He was stunned for a while, but soon came back to his senses and stared at the mobile phone he took out with unfocused eyes.

There was no point in him continuing to think like this. Since Hisata wanted to meet Shinohara, then they should meet.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi made up his mind to press the dial button for Shinohara Shiori, and then -

Then it suddenly stopped.

Tetsufumi Hirakawa's complexion became increasingly worse under the white light in the bedroom.

He remembered one thing:

Hisada still doesn't know that the person with whom all these things happened was his student, Shinohara Shiori.

"..."

"..."

From a narrative perspective, when Tetsufumi Hirakawa confessed to Masaki Hisada three days ago, it was to confess what happened on Christmas.

The key point is what happened, not the identity of the other party. Saying that it was Shinohara Shiori would only introduce other information, change the focus of the incident, and make things that were already a little confusing even more complicated.

Anyway, I didn’t say anything.

So, now...what should I do?

"..."

The relationship between teachers and students is a taboo, and most people know this.

As a teacher, Hisada Masuki must have a deeper understanding of this relationship.

What would she think if she knew that the person he was talking about was actually his own student?

"..."

Tetsufumi Hirakawa didn't know, he wanted to cover himself with the quilt.

……

However, simply escaping is useless.

After a long time, the sound of the quilt being lifted was finally heard in the quiet room.

Hirakawa Tetsufumi, who showed his head, took a breath.

Face it.

He reluctantly accepted this reality, then picked up his phone again, unlocked it, and dialed Shinohara Shiori without hesitation.

"Hmm? Mr. Hirakawa?"

The moment the call was connected, Shinohara Shiori's pleasant voice came through the receiver.

"It's me." Tetsufumi Hirakawa responded while looking at the ceiling.

"You're calling so late at night. Do you want to talk to Shiori about something? Or..."

In the bathroom, the young lady immersed her whole body in the bathtub, stretched out her white hand from the water, holding a mobile phone, with a smile on the corner of her mouth.

"Do you miss Shiori?"

"…If you have anything to say, find Shiori." Hirakawa Tetsufumi ignored the second half of Shinohara Shiori's sentence.

"So, what's that about? Has Mr. Hirakawa figured out how to respond to Shiori?"

"That's not the case... Well, uh, it's just..." After denying Shinohara Shiori's words, Hirakawa Tetsufumi got to the point, "Moshu told me... she wants to see you."

"..."

Shinohara Shiori was stunned by the misty water vapor and the body that was looming in the water.

"Teacher Hisada wants to see me?"

Even Miss Shinohara was a little surprised by this sudden news.

"...Well, yes." Hirakawa Tetsufumi's tone was complicated.

"why?"

"I don't know about that either... Is that okay?"

"Um……"

Shinohara Shiori stretched out her other hand from underwater, and when it surfaced, there was a sound of water.

She bent her index finger and placed it on her chin, thinking.

Does Mr. Hisada want to meet her?

It was really sudden to hear such news while taking a shower.

why?

First of all, if this is the case, then it must be that Mr. Hisada already knows about the relationship between her and Mr. Hirakawa, so he wants to meet her.

So did Mr. Hirakawa confess?

He didn't choose to hide his girlfriend... It's not surprising. Mr. Hirakawa is such a person.

Secondly, since you have decided to confess, what does Mr. Hirakawa think?

Hmm... so her bet was right, right?

Although it didn't happen to the final step, it was impossible to make her teacher Hirakawa choose her 100%.

However, given Mr. Hirakawa's personality, he couldn't ignore what happened before, so he was still struggling, right?

I was struggling with how to respond to her and how to face Mr. Hisata.

Since I can't get any results, I have no choice but to be honest and take things one step at a time.

Is that so?

So from this perspective, she still has a chance. What she is doing is not in vain, nor is it an illusory dream.

Being able to receive such news, a glimmer of light appeared in Shinohara Shiori's eyes.

However, it’s not too early to be happy.

It's just a dilemma, but in the end, Mr. Pingchuan will still make the decision.
