บท 717: Bringing Nao Home

“What are you staring at me for? Go now.” Coach Ayu said in a rather displeased tone. No. That’s just an act on her part. It’s too easy to notice. Most likely, she’s afraid to repeat what happened yesterday.

I was back at her office for a little review of my lesson, to get my salary for the day and also to check on her. She acted normally when helping me supervise the lesson but it’s clear that she’s avoiding me. And now that we’re alone in her office after the review wherein she explained things clearly, she swiftly changed into someone who couldn’t stand me staring at her for more than ten seconds. Her eyes turned unfocused and her body language screamed uncomfortable. She’s even rubbing her shoulders as if she’s trying to warm up the chill she was feeling.

If she’s like this then I could only respect her decision. I picked up the envelope filled with my salary from her table and turned around to leave.
