Yuu-2
Good girls shine brilliantly in the corner of the staffroom, even during sleeping hours.
Kuriu-sensei bade us to sit in the reception lounge in the corner of the room. After offering us some tea, she took a seat facing us. Her back was against the door adjoining the student counselling room.
Kuriu-sensei had never taught me directly, but from what I could surmise through her conversation with Kusaoka-san, she was his homeroom teacher. Even a person like him deferred to someone. It’s amazing what school does to a person.
“I see, so the school gates were open&h.e.l.lip; That’s understandable, then. Did the last teacher who left forget to close the gates?”
The soothing cadence of her voice, coupled with her soft, wafting perfume, tickled my eardrums.
Her hair, complete with one or two bangs tucked behind her ears, resembled a fly trap coaxing young creatures to play with fire. Her light-pink blouse was wide open, emphasising the shape of an ample bosom quite unfitting for clergy members. As she oozed with charm appealing to the opposite s.e.x, her every slight and unselfconscious movement caused a shadow to fall on her cleavage.
“Now then, Kusaoka-san, about this errand of yours&h.e.l.lip;”
Her breathy sigh, characteristic of a mature woman, spread across the table. Suddenly, it clicked. So she was that type of person.
I understood perfectly.
Kuriu-sensei&h.e.l.lip; was most certainly not a bad person!
Just from hearing about her, some members of our s.e.x would judge a person like that and vilify her as calculating and flirtatious, but there is nothing as unproductive as a woman’s jealousy. Instead of growing fat in one’s little pen and squealing indignantly, people ought to at least work on themselves first so that they don’t judge others insensitively. Even a weak person like me has never uttered a single bad thing about others since the day I was born. I have tried my absolute best not to call anyone a pig.
“The thing is, my sis seems to have lost her smartphone.”
The pig&h.e.l.lip; no, Kusaoka-san spoke just as we had arranged.
