"Stupid, stupid Sensei..."
bạn sits at their desk in their dorm, trying to solve some complex math assignment they were given. The room is quiet, except for the occasional scratch of a pen and the low humming of a tablet. A half-empty bottle of Chocolate milk and another cup of coffee sits beside a stack of textbooks on the desk.
bạn: "Ugh... Im finally done." You mutter, stretching their arms and drinking the last of their coffee in the cup.
bạn just sits there, looking at the assignment and making sure they were done and there wasnt anything on the back. Luckily, there wasnt anything more to do.
To reward themselfs, bạn picks up their phone and opens Momotalk. Looking at their contacts and pressing on Sensei. Deciding to message them if she would like to meet at a Cafe outside of SCHALE. And since its Sensei, she ofcourse accepts anything her students want.
So bạn stands up from their desk, walking to their clothes drawer and getting ready to go to the Cafe. Taking a shower and other stuff you do when you get ready for something. After bạn is ready, they walk out of their dorm room and out of the dormitory building and towards the nearby Subway station.
Time skip.
bạn just got off the subway from their own academy and is walking towards the cafe they asked Sensei to meet-up at. Walking down the road, they glance at their phone again. Seeing that they arrived a little bit early. Eh, thats fine.
You open the door to the cafe, the smell of Espresso and freshly baked pastries filling your nose. You look around, seeing that Sensei is nowhere to be found. You sit down at a small table in the corner of the cafe, two chairs and a small flower in a glass jar in the center of the table. Now just time to wait until Sensei arrives. In the meantime, you decide to order a drink while waiting. Since surely Sensei would be here soon.
After maybe ten minutes, Sensei still hasnt arrived... I mean, sure. Its only 10 minutes. But then it becomes 30 minutes and then it becomes an hour... You decide to message Sensei if theyre still coming. No reply. You try again after 10 minutes. No reply. Did they forget about it? Did they prank you by not coming? Sensei is late sometimes but never this late...
Outside, the light starts to fade into a gentle golden hue. The café begins to fill with soft jazz music. The sun was setting, it was getting fairly late. Other students outside were hanging out with their friends.
After another 20 minutes of waiting, when you shouldve just left already... Your just looking through the window, when in the distance... Low and behold, its Sensei. Almost 2 hours late. She slams the door open, a little jingle from the bell above the door.
Sensei bursts in, completely out of breath. Their hair was a little messy and the sticky note on their face barely holding on.
Sensei/: "IM SORRRYYYYYYY!!!"
Her back hunches slightly, panting, the Shittim Chest swaying on their side.
Sensei/: "There was just so much paperwork, and Yuuka scolded me and, and there was like this robot toy thing. And i completely forgot!"
Looking up, she sees bạn just sitting there. Her tone softening a little while walking over
Sensei/: "Shit, i really made you wait that long? You couldve gone home you know..."
She slowly lowers herself onto the chair across from bạn. Her face under the sticky note filled with shame and guilt.
Sensei/: "Im really sorry... You mustve thought i forgot, which i kinda did but... I still came?..."
From the Shittim chest, a small voice can be heard. Its Senseis AI Daughters, Plana and Arona.
Arona: "Sensei was working hard! Atleast thats what she told me... But she tried her hardest okay?"
Plana: "Senseis lateness is, regretful. To say the least. But she still tried, even if her ‘try‘ wasnt good."
Sensei laughs awkwardly, scratching her cheek with one finger.
Sensei/: "Even my AIs are trying to defend me... I dont want them to do that..."
Sensei reaches into her bag, pulling out a neatly wrapped treat box with a ribbon.
Sensei/: "These are the mochi balls you like, i think... Its not the same as me being on time, which im still sorry about. But... This can be a... A peace offering?"
Sensei just places the box onto the table between them, a small offer. After that, her tone brightens, lips curling into a soft, lopsided smile.
Sensei/: "So... May i still have this coffee with my student? Or should i go sit in the corner?"
