After an uneventful Saturday study session and Sunday study session, it was finally Thursday, the day of the test.
Today, Thursday, we had a four-subject test and school ended in the morning.
I was studying with the two of them, but on the second day, I didn’t do any studying myself, but was teaching them all the time.
Kaoru was also doing well enough to rank in the top 10, but she said there were still many things she didn’t understand, so I decided to teach her.
Kaoru was so determined to teach Kirara that she neglected her own studies out of a sense of responsibility, so I told her that I would teach Kirara as well and she could concentrate on her own studies.
As for Kirara, she had studied two subjects on Saturday and two subjects on Sunday, so she would not get a red mark in those four subjects. She learned so fast that I felt it was fun to teach her.
I thought that she could manage to avoid a red mark in those four subjects, since a score of 50 or below is a red mark in this high school.
I studied with them for two days, and after that, on Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday, we had school, so we didn’t have time to study on our own, so I don’t know about the other three subjects….I mean, Kirara’s weakest point was English, and she got a single digit score almost every time, so I’m sure she got a red point….we didn’t study that on Saturdays and Sundays.
I mean, as far as English goes, it would be hard for anyone to understand it right away, so it would take time. That’s because they haven’t mastered the basics at all.
But still, if she can avoid red marks in all four subjects, that’s great.
Kirara had been getting red marks in all subjects since she was in junior high school, and compared to that, it would be a huge improvement.
I was on my way to school thinking about that.
◆
–I arrived at school and immediately took my seat.
My classmates were sitting in their seats, solving their work, looking at their notebooks and textbooks, and trying to catch up.
Kaoru and Kirara were the same way, reading their textbooks intently in their seats.
As I was looking at Kaoru, she noticed me and gave me a small wave, so I smiled at her and she went back to studying.
I glanced at Hitomi and Yamazaki, and saw that Hitomi was naturally concentrating on her studies, but Yamazaki was sleeping while holding out his textbook.
Well, he must have been up all night.
In my previous life, some high school students stayed up all night just before a test and dozed off during the test……
In case you are wondering, I’m confident that I can get a perfect score even without studying, but I decided to take a quick look at my first subject, the history textbook.
About 10 minutes later, the test instructor arrived, handed out the test, and the first test began.
◆
(Ding dong)
“Then pass the test around to the back.”
The test instructor said at the same time as the chime as it was time to end the fourth and final test of the day.
When the test was over, the classroom suddenly became noisy.
Some students were checking with their friends to see how they felt about the test, some were lamenting that they hadn’t done well at all, some were checking their work and textbooks to see if their answers were correct, and some were quickly leaving.
Me, by the way, I finished all four subjects right away and spent a lot of time looking outside.
Well, this is not to say that I’m smart, it’s just that Ohgo Kaito is smart…….
I turned on my phone, which I had turned off when the test started, and a little later a LUNE notification went off.
I checked and it was a call from Kaoru.
[Kaito kun ! Kirara chan is with me, so let’s go home together today !]
She says today, but we also went home together on Monday and Tuesday, and the only time we didn’t go home together was yesterday because Kaoru had something to do.
Well, but that doesn’t matter.
It’s true that I want to go home with Kaoru too.
I thought so and replied.
[Fine[
[Then I’ll see you at our usual place a little bit away from the school.]
[Yeah. I’ll see you later.]
I promised to meet up with Kaoru at our usual meeting place.
I saw Kaoru leave the classroom with Kirara right after that, and I left the classroom right afterwards.
In the meantime, I looked at Yamazaki, who was chatting with his male friends about a game somehow.
◆
“Ah ! Kaito kun, you’re here !]
[Hello, Kaito kun !]
They said as I got to the place where we were going to meet together.
“Ah, then shall we go home together?”
“Yeah !”
“Right.”
So we decided to go home together.
“How did you two do on your test? We still have another one tomorrow.”
“I did pretty good ! Maybe I can get single-digit in my grade ! ! There is still tomorrow, but that’s how good I did today ! I was able to do the places that Kaito kun taught me ! It’s thanks to Kaito kun !”
When I asked her that, Kaoru answered happily.
Well, I think Kaoru’s grades in the game are also in the higher ranks and she was in 10th place in every route in the first test.
But there are already some developments that are not in the game, so who knows?
“I see. That’s good to know. But Kaoru was also working hard in cram school and putting in a lot of effort in her studies, so it’s not thanks to me, it’s all on her own.”
“That’s not true ! It’s true that I worked hard too but it’s also thanks to Kaito kun ! That’s for sure ! How about you, Kirara chan?”
Kaoru asked and Kirara said happily.
“It was totally better than I expected ! Well, it’s only the two subjects I studied with the two of you….but I think I might be able to avoid a red mark in those two subjects ! I think it might’ve been that much of a challenge ! ! ! Thanks, you two !”
Today’s four subjects included two that Kirara studied with me and Kaoru, and as expected, she seemed to have done well in those two subjects. When I heard that, I was glad that it seemed to work properly.
“That’s great, Kirara chan ! But you learned so fast !”
“That’s right. You understood what I taught you right away, so it was easy for me to teach you and it was fun.”
“You’re right, Kaito kun ! I thought so too !”
This is not a lie, it’s the truth.
Up until now, Kirara has probably been busy with family chores and part-time jobs, was tired and sleepy, and couldn’t concentrate in class. If she had been able to study properly, she probably wouldn’t have gotten a red mark…..that might not be the case with English and other subjects that require a lot of study, since you have to start from the basics, but there are definitely other subjects that aren’t like that.
“Yeah,……thanks so much you two,…..and good luck tomorrow !”
“We will ! Let’s do our best !”
“Yeah.”
“So how did it go for you, Kaito kun?”
Kaoru asked me that.
“Me….well. It turned out just as I thought it would.”
I wasn’t sure what to say, but I said so.
Even if I were to be humble and say it was just fine, I thought it was a little off, and if I said I would definitely get 100 points, I felt reluctant because I felt like I was putting a damper on these two who were so happy.
“Well, Kaito kun would probably be number 1 again!”
“You came first in the entrance exam. That’s amazing, really.”
“I hope so. I told you before, let’s do our best again tomorrow.”
“Yeah ! Let’s do our best !”
“I’ll do my best too, since you two taught me !”
After that, the three of us parted ways when we arrived at Kaoru’s house.
