How to ruin a romantic comedy - episode 8
〈 8Tutorial 〉 End of tutorial

What would you do if you could understand Japanese? I don't know the formula itself..
I want to learn studying from Miyuki quickly..
Resisting the urge to tear up my math test paper, I took down all the multiple-choice questions and laid down on my desk..
There are five more exams left, so it's better to rest well and prepare for the next exam than to hold on to something that doesn't work..
Even so, since I can't study the original text, it's a certainty that I failed..
Ding dong! Ding dong!
I, who had been soundly asleep, woke up as soon as the bell rang..
Then the girl sitting on the right looked at me and giggled..
The bleary eyes and arm marks on his cheeks looked funny..
“Is it funny??”
She was startled by my harsh tone, but then shook her head slightly..
“No... I'm sorry. My face was a little pressed... I guess I was very sleepy. I want some gum?”
As I've shown a more mellow side these days, other students who would have avoided me in the past have started talking to me..
I stretched out my hand after losing my appetite like a tired person..
“Give me one. No... just give me one.”
“huh. here...”
The outstretched hand is very shy.
I took the gum, put it in my mouth, chewed it, and it tasted like blueberries..
But have I ever eaten blueberries??
As long as it's delicious, it's okay..
I decided to take it easy and thanked the female student..
“thanks. Let's be friendly.”
Then the girl’s face became thoughtful..
It looks like he misunderstood something when he heard me...what was it??
I guess he didn't think that he would get in trouble after hearing that he wanted to be friends.?
Just as I was thinking this, a middle-aged professor came up to me and took my test paper away..
“Mr. Matsuda. No chatting until you collect the test papers..”
“yes.”
Maybe it's because I've been listening obediently lately, but even though I made a mistake, the professor's gaze is favorable..
When I look at my test scores, I feel like I'm going to start thinking and swearing, but I feel anxious for no reason..
Break time when the exam is completely over.
I gestured towards Miura, who was looking intently at the workbook..
“Hey, Miura.”
“huh?”
“Did you see it well??”
“I... I think I got half of it right..”
This guy wasn't that good at studying..
That's why Tokiaka's event involves studying with Miyuki..
“If it's half right, you got it right. It's surprising?”
“It's not surprising, but I think it couldn't have been done half as well....?”
“Then, am I an empty-headed idiot who took pictures of everything??”
“No... I didn't mean to say that. Sorry.”
After Miyuki apologized to Tetsuya in the nurse's office and told him to become friends, I spent some time talking to Tetsuya..
Of course there was no apology.
Nevertheless, Tetsuya seemed to dislike me less than before..
It seems like he stopped harassing me every day and started talking about random things, but talking to this guy made me feel like my stomach was going to explode..
I don't like having bushy hair even in the middle of summer..
Still, I endure it for the sake of improving my relationship with Miyuki..
I glanced ahead and saw Miyuki discussing exam questions with her friends..
Even if you don’t look at him, he must be a senior..
**
“I did well on the test?”
Question from the professor I met during the pervert incident.
I asked back with a snort..
“I think so?”
“no.”
“Why are you asking when you know so well?.”
“It's crooked... today is the last day of cleaning.?”
“yes.”
“I thought they would throw it away after a few days, but I was honestly surprised that they came out and cleaned it over the weekend. This is why I'm scared of prejudice.”
“Is it a compliment??”
“It's a sincere compliment. Take care until today. Next semester, study hard and do some club activities..”
Club activities? Of course I should.
2It will be a kendo club with Lenka, a student and one of the main heroines..
Our Lenka will be receiving a new recruit as soon as he returns from his shoulder injury... I want to see him soon..
“I'll think about it. Bye bye, bad student.”
“I know. Okay, go..”
If I deny it, will it last longer?.
Grumbling, I left the teacher's office and headed to the bathroom..
Then I ran into Miyuki..
She was approaching me with several books in her arms, and when she saw me, she smiled brightly..
“Hello, Matsuda-kun.”
It makes me feel better because I seem to be showing that smile often these days..
“I said hello to you in the morning, are you doing it again??”
“You can't do it?”
“That's not true, it's annoying to accept.”
“Saying “goodbye” isn’t difficult. When I talk to Matsuda-kun, he seems like he lives in a different world than me. It really doesn't fit.”
“So will it be a good fit??”
“Look at this. Again, being sarcastic. Try to fix this too. I did well on the test?”
“I'm sincerely asking this.?”
“Ah... I made a mistake. Sorry. Of course you didn't see it.”
No matter how bad I am at studying, that's a prejudice..
Of course I couldn't see it very well..
But I think we've become quite close.?
If we can even chat like this,.
Shall I say it now? In fact, there isn't even a chance if it's not now..
Scratching the back of my head, I cautiously opened my eyes to Miyuki, whose eyes were wide open..
“Hey, Hanazawa.”
“huh?”
“By any chance... can you teach me how to study??”
“Yes...? study...?”
Miyuki's already large eyes grew twice as big..
She couldn't speak for a while, but when she saw my serious expression, she also became serious..
“It's amazing, but... I'm serious.?”
I'm serious.
And think carefully too. Summer vacation is long.
What would I do for two months without a mentor to guide me on the right path??
You'll meet bad friends, drink and smoke, and act like a brat..
When the vacation ends and school starts, there is a high possibility that I will return to being Ken Matsuda..
I mean, take those complex factors into consideration..
You're smart. You can think about this much..
“uh. Give me some tutoring or something. I'll pay.”
“Oh, no... it's not about the money... the midterm exam was so shocking.?”
“Hey, hey. done. Just go. People are talking seriously, but they're making fun of me... It's annoying..”
As I passed Miyuki with furrowed brows, she approached me at a fast pace and said:.
“No, I wasn't kidding. I want to think about it, but why are you leaving??”
I stopped in place and looked back at Miyuki..
“Then you will do it.?”
“I just said I was thinking. One of Matsuda-kun’s problems is that he is impatient. So wait.”
“how much?”
“Matsuda-kun.”
“okay. You just have to wait.”
I grumbled and leaned against the hallway wall..
I waited for Miyuki with an awkward attitude for about a minute.,
Miyuki, who was thinking deeply with her head slightly tilted, asked me..
“I'm confident I'll do it right?”
“maybe.”
“Speak clearly. I don't want to waste my time on someone who has no will to improve..”
“What do you think? Do you think I'll do it right? Evaluate it objectively.”
“Why am I evaluating that? Matsuda-kun, you should ask yourself..”
You don't give me a chance.
Of course, it is understandable as it is an unexpected request to teach me how to study..
I stood straight in the hallway and looked down at Miyuki..
And then he said without any hesitation.
“I'll do it right.”
“okay...? good.”
It took a while, but surprisingly, he readily accepted..
I asked, barely able to stop the corners of my mouth from twitching..
“Where should I go? Should I go??”
“Hmm... it would be nice to meet in the middle... but where does Matsuda live??”
“Below Nerima Ward.”
“okay...? It's close...? I'm above Suginami. Then, should I teach you at the cafe in the middle? I don't like libraries because they have to be quiet....”
You don't tell me to come home, even if I'm about to die. sad.
“Aren’t cafes supposed to be quiet too??”
“That's right. Um... the park is a bit like that because the weather is hot....”
“If you look at the map between your house and my house and you think it's reasonably close, do you want to just do it at my house? The house is empty.”
“Yes...? It's a bit... your parents are probably there too....”
“dead.”
“.....”
When I said it as if it was no big deal, Miyuki's mouth fell shut..
I must have been quite embarrassed as I saw his pupils shaking as if there was an earthquake..
“I'm sorry... I...”
“What are you sorry about? I don't even care. It's been so long since he died that I don't even remember his face..”
“Oh, Matsuda-kun...! Purify your words a little......”
The way he fidgets is cute.
I burst out laughing and held out my cell phone..
“Give me your Lane ID. I'll go back and tell you the details. I have to clean the bathroom.”
“Oh, okay... okay....”
“I'm teaching you to study.?”
“huh. I'll teach you... Instead, you have to work really hard. If I show you even the slightest bit of laziness, I'll stop right away..”
“I knew.”
Tetsuya will also ask Miyuki the same favor as me..
Of course Miyuki will agree, and she will suggest that the three of us study together..
It was a pity that I couldn't be alone with Miyuki, but it didn't really matter..
All kinds of events will happen starting from summer vacation..
If I were there instead of Tetsuya, that would be enough..
Or three people can watch it together.
All you have to do is make sure that Tetsuya and Miyuki are not alone together..
The early part of Dokiaka is the time to distribute funds to be used for play or find out information about the game..
To put it simply, it is a tutorial..
And I could say I just finished the tutorial.
It is time to enjoy Tokiaka in earnest..
**
“Wow... nice house... right? Tetsuya-kun.”
“huh. It's so big...”
Tetsuya and Miyuki are talking loudly outside the main gate..
In the end we decided to watch it at our house..
Not only did it have the advantage of being an empty house where people could talk loudly, but it was also close by..
As I expected, Tetsuya participated in the study group, and the result was a visit by the two of them..
With the air conditioner on full blast, I put on my slippers and came out of the living room..
I'm trying to open the front door after passing through a stone path overgrown with weeds.,
“Matsuda-kun! we are here!”
Miyuki let out a loud voice..
I laughed and opened the front door..
And then he hit the two people with interesting eyes..
“Why are you yelling when there is a bell? Are you here? Miura.”
I gestured towards Tetsuya, and he raised one hand in an awkward gesture..
“Hello, Matsuda.”
What is goodbye... A spineless guy who can't choose one of the three heroines and is confused..
I cursed at him in my mind and moved to the side..
“come in.”
Then Miyuki entered the house with a bright face..
Miyuki's outfit today is a white T-shirt and a skirt that covers just above the ankles..
The white and thin ankles that appear every time you walk stimulate your desire..
“where should i go?”
Miyuki's question turned her head.
I answered after coming to my senses while walking with Tetsuya..
“Just follow the road and you will come to the living room..”
“Isn’t it normal for the landlord to take the lead? And Matsuda-kun, you don’t take care of weeds or anything like that.?”
“Do I really need to do it??”
“It's like Matsuda. however...”
Miyuki trailed off and looked toward the flower bed..
When she saw the drooping plants, she made a fuss and scolded me..
“Matsuda-kun...! What if I leave the plant like that? Everyone is dying...!”
Dying? He wasn't already dead?
“So how do you let it go? throw away?”
“That's not what it's about...! Why is the watering can so old??”
“Because I don't use it?”
“I really don't understand...”
Miyuki looked around, found a water pipe outside, and headed towards it with a watering can..
She meticulously washes the watering can and checks the condition of the plants..
It feels strange, like I'm a girlfriend who came to live with me..
I think it would be really fun to do something with this bug next to me... I can't help it..
“What are you doing? Let's go in.”
“Oh yeah.”
I took Tetsuya to the living room, and he and I started setting up a round table for us to study..
