“You’re truly saddening me. How can you take Alan’s side like that when we’ve known each other for a long time?”
Then another voice chimed in with a solemn tone.
“You punk are so childish. What’s up with the side he’s on? Can you fight him and win?”
It was the PE teacher who intervened in our conversation.
The teacher lightly hit Kenta’s head with the water bottle he was holding.
There was a crisp hitting sound because there was nothing in it.
It doesn’t look like he hit him too hard, but Kenta grabbed his head.
He also teased the teacher saying, in what era are you hitting a student’s head these days? Isn’t it clear that the teacher is abusing his authority?
Of course, it was a phrase that had no effect on the teacher.
The teacher looked at me and Kenta alternately then asked.
“Are you hanging out with people you don’t even get along with?”
I’m not sure about that either.
“What’s wrong with us?!” exclaimed Kenta.
And he drew me into silence.
The teacher said this while waving the water bottle sideways in front of Kenta, who was still in frustration.
“Kenta, stop talking and go get some water.”
As expected, he didn’t lose a word. I could see why people were so fond of him.
He was truly amusing. It wasn’t the same for me.
Even when I spoke, I acted stiffly as if I were a fool.
Alan also seems to have enjoyed Kenta’s tantrum.
For a brief moment, even the smile that had spread across my lips became discouraged.
What if he doesn’t like me anymore because I’m not interesting?
Contrary to my heart, Kenta who had something like a motor in his mouth started the engine as if it were about to take off.
“Teacher, don’t you know that you can’t do something like this these days?”
But that was probably just my assumption.
The teacher glanced and threatened him.
“Punk, aren’t you leaving soon?”
Despite his feistiness, the terrified Kenta rose immediately in response to the teacher’s threat.
Then he grabbed my arm.
I unexpectedly went on an errand with Kenta.
He tapped the water bottle on his shoulder and chewed the teacher as he thought it was unfair.
“I’m going to report him to the education office.”
“If you file a complaint now, he will know right away that you are the culprit. ”
“Oh, is that so? Well, I’m glad I had an errand to run. I was sitting there with nothing to do.”
I was a little sad.
I’d like to see even a little bit of Alan’s appearance while running…
“Ah!”
I raised my voice and then shook my head.
Kenta asked, “What is it? What’s wrong with you?”
I waved his hand and trudging away,
“Nothing.”
