Ghost School

Am I Smart?

izumi and I continued to study until it started to get dark and the rain slowly started to subside.

"the rain is no longer heavy." I murmured.

"Yui may be back soon, I have to learn quickly" I murmured

"but, I didn't expect you to understand this quickly in learning" said Izumi

"actually, since the beginning I have understood.it's just a little forgotten, but there are also things that I can not understand" I said

"do you understand? when did you understand it?" ask Izumi

"of course when the teacher is teaching" I said a little confused by Izumi's question

"but.." said Izumi hesitant and suspicious.

"a... what?" much

"i used to come to your class during class hours, but you barely noticed the teacher when explaining the lesson.I often saw you just doodling books" said Izumi

"i did it because I already understood and got tired of hearing it" I said, scratching my cheek

"ah, I used to be that way too" Izumi thought

"then why do you ask me to teach you?' asked Izumi with a slightly irritated face

"izumi's explanation is easy to understand and not boring, and again, you offered to teach me" I said

"i did it because I was afraid that you didn't understand and couldn't answer about the repetition, but, if you've understood what else I'm teaching you" Izumi said

"at that time I really did not understand, but thanks to Izumi now I understand" I said

"if Izumi taught me, my grades would be even better, and again, it would feel so uninspired to study alone" I said

"i also feel like I'm still pretty bad at my lessons. Izumi even called me 'stupid' before" I said

"Yurin, when it comes to that name, I'm just kidding. In fact from the beginning I knew you weren't stupid. you who have entered this school and are in the 10-2th grade have indicated that you are actually smart" Izumi thought

"it's fine if you want it. I'll teach you and get you into 11-1" Izumi said

"it's only semester 1. it's still 6 months away to go to class 11" I said with a laugh

"and again, I'm not sure I can get into that class, because every class of class-1 is smart all" I said

"you're in class 10-2, not much different from them. Of course you can get into that class" said Izumi

"if I teach you, it's not difficult" Izumi said

"even without me I think you can get into that class" said Izumi

"no way. I won't be able to compete with the students of class 10-1" I said shaking hands

"he's not aware of his own abilities, is he?" thought Izumi

"we will see if we can or not. now learn first" said Izumi

"yes" I answered and looked back at the book

"oh, yeah. Izumi, if you want to leave now, you go first" I said

"is it okay?" ask Izumi

"now I'm okay with studying alone" I said

"you must be busy, can't I keep you here to teach me. You must have your own needs" I said

"i'll study well, you don't have to worry" I said

Izumi thought for a moment

"if you can't come tonight, it's okay to go now" I said, waving my hand

"learn the truth.if something makes you confused, just call my name. I will come immediately" said Izumi and disappeared

"basik.he thinks I'm a child what? until he's younger than me (?) talk to me like that" I cried

"but I was a little curious." I thought.

"Izumi" I said

"what?" said Izumi who appeared in front of me

"really came!!!" thought I was screaming

"there's nothing, you can come back now" I said

Izumi is also missing

"Izumi is reliable" I murmured

"ah, it's better now that I take a shower first" I thought and walked to the bathroom

after taking a shower, I dry my hair while sitting on the side of the bed

"why did I feel a bit familiar with Izumi, especially when we were studying earlier" I thought

"where have I met someone who looks like Izumi, huh? " i thought

"Ririn, I'm home" Yui said from outside

"Yui, you're finally home ju- eh?" I interrupted when I saw Yui coming in

"why are you soaking wet?" much

"ahahahahaha" Yui laughed uneasily and turned her face away from me

"quickly shower and change clothes now.later you catch a cold" I said

when Yui takes a bath, I make hot chocolate drinks to warm her body

"here, drink it" I said as I offered a cup of hot chocolate

"thank you, Ririn" Yui said

"by the way, how can you be so drenched?" much

"when the rain began to subside, I came home from my friend's house. Because I thought the rain would stop, I refused my friend's offer to wear her umbrella. Then, on the way home, while on the way home, I was on my way home, the rain came back and I ended up raining" Yui explained

"what about your book? did the book get rained?" much

"ah!! the book was left behind as I waited for the rain to subside in my friend's house!!" yell Yui

"how about you grab that book in a minute? I'll come with you to go get it" I said

"ti... no need, Ririn. I also had time to read the book earlier, so it's okay" said Yui

"you don't have to be with me. It's okay, I'll accompany you" I said

"no need. tomorrow my friend must return my book" Yui said in a hurry

"well, now let's eat. I'm hungry" said Yui and went to the kitchen

"Yui who usually does not like to lend books or belongings to others suddenly loaned her books and after arriving at her friend's house, she forgot to bring her book back, when I asked her to take back the book, she rejected it in a hurry" I thought

"what's just my feeling, yeah, it feels like Yui's been kind of weird lately" I thought.
