章節 1753: Walking with Orimura-sensei

“Say, are you truly not interested in taking up sports?”

Perhaps also miffed at the silence between us, Orimura-sensei opened up a topic to talk about on our way out. She’s still a step ahead of me and she’s probably still annoyed at how I answered her. Nonetheless, since she decided to accompany me, being in this awkward silence possibly doesn’t sit well with her.

“That question. I’ve been asked that many times already, sensei. I don’t have the motivation to commit to a certain sport. Though I picked up tennis recently and have been practicing my swings.”

“Huh? You? Tennis? I can’t imagine you playing that.”

That piqued her interest, enough that I managed to catch up to her steps. When I glanced at her side frame, Orimura-sensei was in deep thought as though imagining me running around on a tennis court, swinging my racket comically.
