chapter 3: i need a tutor!

nobunaga household (kiyota's room)

kiyota stared at his chemistry paper, the big

fat f looked back at him like a threatening shadow. the image of

junta-sensei now plague his mind. junta-sensei pointing his finger at him and

telling him he has to quit basketball because he flunked chemistry.

he remembered jin's advice to him, "you

don't need a miracle kiyota, you need a tutor!" kiyota sighed as he

crumpled the paper and shoot it inside the waste basket. he took out his

chemistry book and started studying. he then put the book down after 5 minutes

of reading and muttered to himself, "i don't need a tutor jin! i need a

miracle!"

the next day (kainan)

junta-sensei gave the examination paper to

kiyota's class and exclaimed, "finish that in 30 minutes so i can check it

and return the papers to you!" with that he set the timer and exclaimed,

"test starts now!"

after 30 minutes

test papers were passed, kiyota heaved a big

sigh saying to himself, "i'm doomed!" 10 minutes have passed,

all test papers were returned. kiyota's paper landed on his table. he looked at

it... another big fat f. kiyota groaned. that's the fourth f in a

chemistry quiz, he is doomed!

junta-sensei dismissed the class as the bell

rang for the exception ok kiyota. kiyota lazily walked up to junta-sensei's

table knowing what he'll hear. junta-sensei shook his head at kiyota saying,

"that's the fourth f kiyota, you need to pass the remaining 5 quizzes in

order to get a b minus or else..."

"i know that sir, but... i just can't

simply understand chemistry" kiyota exclaimed "that's because

you're a lousy teacher!" kiyota's head screamed.

junta-sensei sighed, "then you'll be

needing a tutor, i advise you to approach arika fujisawa of 2-1. she has

passed all of her chemistry quizzes with flying colors. she can help big

time" with that he dismissed kiyota.

"arika who? dammed teacher, advising me

to get that girl as a tutor! i don't even know the girl? arika who? i forgot her

surname." kiyota thought, as he walked out of the classroom. "oh

well i just have to find her in 2-1!"

kiyota then turned to his right heading for room

2-1, before he could get there, ria masahara called up to him. "kiyota-kun!

matte!" kiyota stopped and turned around.

ria masahara exclaimed, "ohayou

kiyota-kun!" kiyota just nod his head. ria frowned and asked, "what's

wrong? you looked troubled, problem?" kiyota sighed and answered, "if

you are good in chemistry, you can help an solve my problem"

"chemistry?" ria exclaimed gulping.

"i'm sorry kiyota-kun, i also have problems in chemistry" kiyota

replied, "then thanks for the concern, what i need now is someone who is

dammed good in chemistry!" ria noticed room 2-1 and thought, "he's

heading for that dirt bag's classroom! no way, i'll let that dumb ass be

kiyota's savior!"

ria then handed kiyota a calling card and

exclaimed, "this is my tutor in chemistry kiyota-kun, call him up and he'll

be obliged to help you. just mention my name to him" kiyota's eyes lit up

saying, "thanks ria! you're a big help!" ria smiled and replied,

"that's nothing kiyota-kun, anything for you my dear!"

then arika came out of her classroom seeing ria

talking to kiyota. "oh no! ria is talking to kiyota... what to do? i

need to give this essay to her!" she exclaimed in her mind looking

horrified. "calm yourself arika, just go up to her, give the essay and

remember not to call her sama in front of kiyota!"

with that arika approached ria. ria gave her

sweet smile and exclaimed sweetly, "why arika-san, anything wrong?"

arika forced up a smile thinking, "what a good actress you are

ria!" she the handed her a folded paper saying, "someone wanted to

give you this ria-san. another admirer from our class!"

ria took the paper and read the content,

"thank you arika-san!" arika then bowed down saying, "i'll be

going now ria-san" with that she walked off, "yeah ria-san my

ass!" she thought angrily. kiyota smiled at ria saying, "you got

lot of admirers ria!"

"i know kiyota-kun, but really, you know i

don't like them, i like you!" ria exclaimed smiling at kiyota. kiyota

smiled nervously saying, "uh... yeah... well gotta go now ria.... see you

later!" with that kiyota took the run. ria sighed angrily saying,

"darn... why are you so hard to catch nobunaga kiyota! and that dirt bag

showing up in a wrong time! aagghhh!"

jin smiled at kiyota stepped out from the locker

room. kiyota was holding up a cell phone and he looked so downtrodden. jin

asked, "what's wrong kiyota?"

kiyota sighed and exclaimed, "i called the

guy who tutors ria in chemistry, and boy, he was expensive! i can't pay that

much for a tutor! even if i mentioned ria's name i didn't get a discount!"

jin laughed exclaimed, "of course, you're not ria's boyfriend or anything

yet!"

"it's not a good time to joke around jin! i

need a tutor badly!" kiyota exclaimed looking annoyed. "tell me

kiyota, did junta-sensei mentioned anyone you can approach to be your

tutor?" jin asked.

kiyota nod his head and exclaimed, "yeah!

then again... i forgot her name... but i know she's from 2-1!" jin

oke

into a smile and exclaimed, "i think i know who is that girl from 2-1. her

name is arika fujisawa."

then kiyota remembered...
