Chapter 18 second quarter

Takashi's father was the manager of a trading company.Although he is in a management position, he is a practical man who rarely spends his days at home.The care of the only son, Takashi, was entrusted to his mother Yoshiko.Perhaps because she felt the weight of responsibility on her body, Ryoko worked hard on Takashi's education.On Wednesday, I have an English practice class. In addition, there are science and social cram schools.Her husband once gave orders to spend a large amount of tuition fees on Xiaozhi, and Xiaozhi himself never complained, and obeyed Liangzi's every word.It can also be said that Xiaozhi himself does not know how to complain.

Friday is the day when the tutor who teaches mathematics comes to the house.Kuroda is a boy from the private Y University. He has been teaching Takashi at home since the first day of junior high school.His skin is tanned by the sun, and his mantra is that learning is important, but playing can't relax.He joined the team in college, with thick arms and a broad back that showed it.In summer, Kuroda always comes home sweaty, wearing a sports vest and carrying a crumpled sports bag.After that, he would take out the mathematics textbook for the second grade of junior high school from his bag.There are many colorful stickers on the bag, and on one of them, the words "KIYOMI" are written with a marker.

"...What are you doing?" Hearing Kuroda's voice, Takashi finally came to his senses, and there was a blank notebook in front of him.He is holding a mechanical pencil and trying to write something on it.Kuroda looked at his face and repeated: "You seem to be a little absent-minded?" Xiaozhi quickly shook his head, "No." "lie." Kuroda stared into his eyes, "You look like you didn't listen to anything." "……Sorry." Takashi lowered his head. "It's nothing, what were you thinking just now?" "..."

"You've been staring at this thing." Kuroda picked up his bag and handed it to Takashi, "Is there something wrong with this broken bag?" "No……" He said so, but Takashi's eyes still fell on a certain place of Bao.Kuroda noticed it immediately. "Are you watching this?" He pointed to the place where "KIYOMI" was written.Seeing that Takashi didn't deny it, Kuroda said with a smile. "It's my ex-girlfriend. Judging by your appearance, I guess it's the beginning of love. I was in a daze just now, maybe I was thinking about the cute girl?"

"It's not what you think." "What's that like?" "..." Xiao Zhi hesitated in his heart, not knowing whether he should make up an excuse to get away with it, or tell him the truth.Apart from him, Xiaozhi could no longer find anyone who could help him make suggestions. "Since you don't want to talk, let's start learning." Hearing what Kuroda said, Takashi couldn't help shouting "Wait".Kuroda silently stared at the corner of his mouth.Xiaozhi hesitated for a moment, and asked in a low voice. "What do you do if you want to strike up a conversation with someone you've never talked to?"

He was stunned by Kuroda's question, with his mouth half-opened.Then he smiled, "What, isn't it still for girls?" Xiaozhi quickly waved his hands, "No, no." Even he could feel that his face was red from the corners of his eyes to his neck. "It's not what you think, teacher. I don't know that person at all, it's just that I remember her. And I don't even know her name...but I really want to talk to her, just want to Just talk to her." Xiao Zhi broke his heart and told all about Xin Gymnastics and her.It's just that he didn't say that he watched her practice on the way home from the cram school on Wednesday.

The joking smile disappeared from Kuroda's face, and after listening to Takashi's words, he deliberately teased, "What, is it older than you?" This is what he deliberately arranged to make Takashi relax. "is it not OK?" Takashi seemed to take Kuroda's joke seriously. "There's nothing wrong with it. I've already estimated that you're about to reach the age of first love. To be honest, I still have some expectations. If you're a nerd all day long, then your junior high school is useless. " "What should I do?" Xiaozhi's eyes were full of sincerity.

"There's no need to overcomplicate things. You just wait until she's done practicing and talk to her when she comes out of school. She's new to gymnastics, which is just right. You take a piece of paper and say you She is a fan of hers, and I hope she can sign an autograph for you. Women like others to hold her like a star, as long as you do this, she will have feelings for you." "Other than that?" "By the way, you'd better find something to say, such as cheering up or something. Regardless of men or women, anyone who engages in sports, as long as someone supports him, he will be very happy in his heart."

"Hmm... cheers." Her figure appeared in Xiaozhi's mind.How should I support her? "Understood. Let me try." "come on." "Teacher, did you succeed by this method yourself?" Kuroda closed one eye and replied with a smile, "I've been tricked by someone else."
