Chapter 31: I hate waking.
Currently I am working on some work that I piled up . I knew it was a bad idea but I went out and got drunk with my friend. Well it was a good idea and I felt refreshed after getting drunk and I saw that I was at home when I woke up.
I asked my friend and she told me that she was the one who picked me up and threw me in bed. She also said that I was heavy.
It's hard to believe but it's the truth cuz I haven't been exercising for sometime.
Currently me and my students Tokusake Ren are in the teachers room , a room specifically made for us teachers where we can gather around and talk about our students or about the results.
When I first entered the school and was given the responsibility towards the class known as [default class] I knew my future was cooked but i was given some time to first go around the building given to the students.
From what I could remember , the place didn't have any building whatsoever for these guys. It was just a small house- can it be even called a house with how small it was. I don't think so.
So well I took a stroll around and saw that it was really advanced for some low class students.
The [default class] are filled with students who won't play any significant role in the future but need studying. But it seems they changed that thought and gave them a whole building. So I finished my tour around the building.
The next day I was told to start my class and I was shocked when I saw that most of the students were son and daughter of some big shot or someone who has some nice background. So I kind of got why they had a separate building for themselves. Some of the students got a nice background.
It's because the students had a great future and those who sponsored them didn't want to waste the future of such bright students.
When other students would do their best to keep up with their studies , the students of [default class] would help the weak students in their studies.
After I took the first few exams , I and the other teachers learnt something. That is a fact that might not change. It is..
No matter how hard the exam even if we put college level or university level questions in the question sheet , the two students known as Tarazune Akeshi and Yamashiro Ren will always place first. So the teachers thought to give them extra exams and somehow Tarazune would win. Then the next exam Yamashiro would win. This was the reason why me and the teachers were much more interested in the 3rd and 4th positions.
It's as if they bought the position. But even all that there was one thing the teachers and myself hated about those two.
The two would never agree on one thing. But one day the two came to the teachers room and asked us to let them take part in the [J.N.H.S.E] and they said that the two of them will work together to get the 1st and 2nd positions.
None of us believed them except sakagami ichiro-sensei. He asked them why they were willing to work all of sudden where they answered that they wanted the permission to do whatever they wanted during lunch except indecent things and that this announcement would stay between students and teachers aren't allowed to spread this news which we agreed to.
And God damn it the two of them not only won but came home with 1st and 2nd position. It was a damn memorial day and all of the people with the [default class] including the teachers were really happy.
Now I am sitting with one of the best students of that class , the 4th position , Tokusake Ren. We were doing our work when all of sudden--
"I... I have feelings for you. More than just as a student to a teacher. It's something I've tried to ignore, but it's become impossible to deny."
He confessed his love for me. I knew that he had some feelings for me from the first time I saw him back when he was a child. He probably doesn't even remember it. But confessing so suddenly. That took me by surprise.
"..I want to go out with you. On a date," he continued,"sensei, I understand if this comes as a shock. It's not something I ever expected or intended. But I couldn't keep pretending like everything was normal when it's not."
I try to form words, any words, but my mouth feels like it's filled with cotton. Tokusakes confession hangs between us, heavy and laden with implications I'm not sure I'm ready to confront.
"I'm sorry if this puts you in a difficult position. You don't have to say anything right now. Just... take your time to process everything. I'll understand."
I manage to nod, my throat tight with unspoken emotions. As Tokusake-kun walks away, leaving me alone with my thoughts, I'm left grappling with a whirlwind of conflicting feelings.

Now I am at the bar. There I was sitting alone , playing with my hair , doing nothing and thinking nothing.
Then I felt a farm press on my shoulder.
"Hey yuu-chan you okey?" I was asked by my friend , Miyake hasabe.
"Yea..."
"Doesn't sound like that!! Hey how about a drink?! will help you cool down!"
"Yeah I was thinking about leaving this place cuz they suck."
"Damn that hurts but let's go to Okushaki then."
I raised my eye brow in confusion , this was unexpected.
"Okushaki?" I asked her , "The place which is known for being called 'a cafe but isn't a cafe?' That Okushaki where they serve both high and low class people?"
'Isn't that the same place that Tarazune-kun works at?' I thought to myself.
"Yup."She grabs my hand and pulls me towards the exit , "Let go."the two of us walked out of the bar and started taking the walk towards Okushaki cafe even though it's like 20 minutes of walk.
'I hate walking...' I thought while glaring at my friend.
