Bab 24: A Normal Day at School
I am Gen Hanako, a female teacher at the famous Gakkou Academy, I am currently teaching math and Japanese as my subjects. Trying my best to be a role model for my students, it is currently the first period and I am currently teaching my class a new subject, writing down the important parts, giving an example, and then write down a difficult problem, where I picked one of them out and let them try to solve it, just based on my explanation alone.
Of course, they all fail normally, they didn't do this until now after all, how are they supposed to solve this? These problems were impossible to solve without practice! I looked around class, everyone was nervous, then I had an idea! I knew transfer student today came into my class, let's pick her and see how much she struggles with it, I must know where she stands after all.
I look at her and see her looking at me, giving me her full attention, at least I believe that, her eyes are always closed and I don't know if she is sleeping or not, but I refrain from calling her out to that, after all she is blind and having her eyes open wouldn't make a difference for her. I slowly walked towards her and she slowly followed me with her eyes, until I stood in front of her.
I look inside her notebook and just see her picking some holes in it, what is she doing in my class?
Let's see her dumbfounded expression.
"Ms. Seigi, solve the problem on the blackboard."
She looked in the direction of me for a second, then she looked left and right, before pointing at herself.
"Yes, you Ms. Seigi, now walk to the blackboard and solve the equation."
I heard a chuckle from the class, let's see how you perform under pressure! She slowly stood up and walked to the blackboard, picking a piece of chalk up, before she turned around and looked at the class than me.
"Sensei Gen, you do understand the implications of me being blind, right? I might have listened to your class, but do you really expect me to remember each word you said during it? Could you please be so nice and at least repeat for me what you have written?"
The class laughed because of the obvious thing she apparently had to point out for me, I was embarrassed because of that, how dare that girl disgrace me in front of everyone, now let's see if you can still be so smug, after you stand in front of the class, not being able to solve it.
I started to give her a full-fledged explanation of the equation if front of her, as well as the approximate position of each letter, I closed my eyes during the explanation, imagining a girl that struggles to understand my words and has difficulties to follow my instructions, I was already excited to see her struggle, but then it happened.
"Done!"
I opened my eyes and saw the girl standing in front of me, trying to give me my chalk.
"I am finished."
I looked at her in disbelief, I couldn't believe what she just said now.
"I am done solving your equation Ms. Gen, can I sit down again?"
"Oh, ah! Yeah, you can, I was just daydreaming a bit, good job Ms. Akane."
I walked towards the blackboard, ready to correct each mistake she did, but she didn't she solved it perfectly, and I couldn't say anything.
"As you see class, Ms. Akane solved this problem, by..."
------------------------------------------------------------------
I immediately walked out of the classroom, the moment the break started, I don't want to be surrounded by all these hypocrite girls, trying to chew me out. For the normal person it just might seem, that they are just innocently asking questions, but I knew that they wanted to see, where in the school hierarchy I stand.
They are starting with innocent questions, like what is your name? What is your favorite food? How old are you? All questions that are already answered if you damn listened to my instructions, bitches! Then the more problematic questions like, what is your quirk? Do you have a boyfriend? Where do you buy clothes? All of that, gradually getting worse as long as you cooperated, then it can branch into two paths, someone is nice enough to see that you are uncomfortable and save you from the situation, or they continue, until they think they have enough information.
Yeah, I am having none of that, don't want to be targeted. If I want to make friend, I'll chose them, when the right one is approaching. You see, I can read the emotions of other as easily as mine, so I could see the reason of these bitches wanting to approach me, luckily, I already escaped from them.
So, I am waiting for the right person to approach me, as long as their intent is pure goodwill towards me, I know I can trust them lending my ear for once. But as long as nobody approaches me with that intend, I am planning to escape, don't want to have the kind of people following me that would stab my back.
After the short break was over I successfully escaped the first encounter, you see the later it is in the day, the more uncomfortable they get approaching that person, the only people that would then still approach me would be the gyarus, or the bitches highest up in the hierarchy of the school.
I can deal with gyarus, they are honest, direct and don't care what others think about their appearance, as long as I act casual with them, nothing can go wrong, I honestly like that kind of people more than regular humans, they don't conceal their feelings other than regular people, I don't care if their intend is good or bad, as long as you don't tell me the truth, I can't trust you.
Do you know how a healthy relationship works? By talking with each other! Learn their point of view, what they thought, why they did that for or to you! What was their reasoning behind all of that? As long as you can't tell me that honestly, then I can't fully trust you.
And the popular bitches, oh boy, that is a difficult topic, let's say I hate most of them, not all of them. They are pretentious, band together like cockroaches and have an attitude that would kill everyone outside of their group, especially the ones that gets thrown out of the group have it difficult. Approach, fucking never, they will never make it to anything, outside of 'that' business, or they change and start to walk a respectable road, their attitude is going to get weeded out if they want to be heroes.
Is what Akane wanted to say, but sadly it wasn't always like that, Akane sighed in disappointment.
And then there were the under categories of popular girls that would approach her, the lonesome popular. They were the ice queen or the nice, cute girl, if one of them approaches Akane would gladly befriend them.
The ice queen might be a bit uncomfortable to talk to, but once you broke through the ice, they would be a pretty cute girl. It might be a bit difficult to talk to them at first, but as long as you act extremely warm towards them, they would melt easily enough. They were the ice queen for a reason, they are strong enough to stand alone with their popularity and are probably from a rich family. If you want to befriend them, be genuinely not interested in her wealth or connections, if you want to be friends with her, try to be a friend to HER and not her name.
And then the cute, dense, girl, that nobody could talk against, because she is quite the air-head and protected by fate, having a girl like her wouldn't be so bad, there might be the problem that the Fate of the universe would support her in a strange way, in that case she would try to avoid her.
And so, the day continued, Akane changed from absolutely must avoid everyone to the 'I am sorry, I am busy, cannot' way to avoid them, can't make it to obvious, the day passed without incident and Akane happily walked home.
------------------------------------------------------------------
"Hello sweetie, how was your day at school?"
Were the first words that met her at home, she was happy.
"Nothing special mommy, I got to know my timetable, the structure of the school-building and got to know that they had tasty melon bread, all in all, it was an uneventful day."
Fumio nodded, at least nothing happened to her.
"Akane you should try..."
"Bap, bap, bap, I don't want to hear that mommy, you know how I approach people, you don't need to tell me."
Her mother nodded sadly, she sighed, why must it be so difficult for her daughter to find people that she accepts?
"Well, that doesn't mean that you shouldn't try harder, and don't interrupt me, I know that you always pull some strings, at least to avoid some uncomfortable things, why not apply it to that and pull some string to meet a trustable person. Or how about you widen your field and instead of finding 'friends', find 'friend-like acquaintances', you know like people you could talk with, about some random topics? A group of four, fluffy girls, doing random things. You know, the group of four girls you always see in school-anime?"
Akane nodded, understanding her mother's implications, yes finding a group like that would be nice, she is going to have fun with them, goof with them and laugh with them, as long as they don't know about her, more particular composition, it won't turn into a different kind of story.
"Ok, mommy, I am going to do just that tomorrow, I am going to be in my room now."
And she walked upstairs to her room. Once inside she silently stood there, until...
"Menu."
...a display appeared.
------------------------------------------------------------------
Somewhere between a group four friends:
"Yui, what do you think about the new girl?"
"I don't know Aki, she seemed to be very busy that day."
"Maybe she was just very nervous?"
"That is probably it, Touko!"
"Maybe we could invite her to our clubroom, you know advertise our club, I would like to be over the bare limit with our club."
"That's a great idea, Kankan, let's invite her tomorrow to our clubroom! Everyone that agrees raises their hand!"
""""Hai!""""
Fate (yes, the one from the omniversal administration) decided to help Akane a bit and gave her said group of four fluffy friends. Tomorrow was going to be an exhausting, but fun day for her.
PERTIMBANGAN PENCIPTA 
HopelessHikikomori
HopelessHikikomori Another wish from Akane, her menu from Undertale. NO! IT IS NOT A FUCKING SYSTEM! NO QUESTS, NO SHOP, NO GACHA, NO CHALLENGES!
It's just a guideline showing Akane her inventory, an improved equipment page and a stat window with some variables.
(Btw. the sheet go updated.)
Piss off you if are system supremacists and piss off if you are system despisers. You should already know, but I am not a fan of extreme opinions.
