The Reason Why Sensei is Called a Stalker EP.10

["...Sensei, is it really okay to do this?"]

Shortly after Sora collapsed and was taken to the hospital, Sensei, after the examinations were completed, secretly planted something small inside Sora's bandages. However, no one noticed Sensei's actions.

The item Sensei had prepared was a special device commissioned from Millennium, making it impossible to detect.

["If you're caught, it won't end with just a scolding, you know?"]

"...It's okay. Even if Sora hates me for the rest of her life, it doesn't matter."

For now, there were no major issues, and he was approaching each student slowly, as Sora had requested, but...

"If I don't win them over quickly, it might become irreversible."

He couldn't shake off the anxiety, so he had to make preparations in advance.

He was an adult, a teacher.

He had a duty to protect his students, his children.

Therefore, even if the child didn't want it, he would save her.

Definitely.

"And if being hated for life is the price to save a student, isn't that a worthwhile trade?"

["Sensei..."]

"Uhehe~ Sorry for making you work late, Sensei."

"It's fine. I was worried about Sora's condition, so don't worry about it."

The sun had set, and it was time for everyone to go home. Sensei visited the hospital to check on Sora, and together with Hoshino, who happened to be outside, they headed towards Sora's room.

Of course,

'I appreciate the sentiment, but I wish he hadn't come~'

Hoshino wasn't particularly happy to see Sensei.

She was grateful that he had tracked down Serika's location, even if it meant writing a report, and her perception of him had changed slightly. However, she still couldn't fully trust him.

"I'm sorry... Sora... So please, stop..."

'I can't let what happened before repeat itself.'

But Hoshino couldn't just turn him away after he'd made the effort to visit, so she decided to let it slide for now, planning to stop him if he said anything dangerous.

Creak.

"Sora-chan, wake up... Huh?"

They reached Sora's hospital room, but for some reason, Sora was nowhere to be seen.
