Mr. Paints
episode 26
November is coming to an end. In the peak of autumn, there will be many festivals in Okinawa. Foreign tourists often arrive, filling every stretch of road to the beach to old historic buildings.
Minami once lived in one of the island's centers, named Miyako Island, where her maternal grandfather worked as a fisherman. His income was erratic, but remained stubborn until he ended up disappearing in the middle of the ocean.
Since then, Minami has never visited the island. The mother only muttered something else if little Minami asked about her grandfather or tried to remember about the beauty of the Okinawa coast.
"Minami, Yoshio called out to you," cried his classmate as he passed down. Minami gasps from the daydream, holding her hungry stomach.
Half an hour ago, the bus that took their study tour stopped at the first rest area. It takes at least half a day to reach the center of Okinawa. The school deliberately used the bus so that students could record everything during the long journey.
"You sick?"asked the man up, approaching Minami's bench. The bus is empty as all children spend their time in the nearby rest area. Minami doesn't have enough money and her supply box is accidentally dumped through the window by the bullies.
Minami curses Yamashita, whom she considers the mastermind of everyone's ketusnya. His latest act against Kotomi convinced everyone, Minami has violated her human rights as a free student. All Minami deserves is a bad feeling.
"I'm doing fine. Go, why are you here?" minami asked half in panic. He checked around and got Kotomi staring at them from a distance.
Yoshio took something from behind his jacket, an anti-drunk drug. The man's gaze strengthened, giving Minami no room to refuse his gift.
"Do you need anything? I can give it to him. Just say it," Yoshio said rubbing his fingers on Minami's tiny hands.
Yoshio was surprised to find that her lover's skin felt smoother than the last time she touched the girl's hand, "you're wearing lotion?"Yoshio frowned, a fragrant smell crammed into his nose.
"Lotions?" parrot Minami quickly pulled her hand. His blood flow rippled sharply, resisting the slightest touch. Her romantic memory with Yamashita, has hurt her self-esteem a lot.
"I'm fine. Go, the bus will be back to running." Minami warned through the eyes, how she now panicked because of Yoshio's friendly attitude. He may be an easy target again.
"Take this, drink it after a meal," Yoshio said, taking a strip of medicine out of his pocket. He believes Minami is lying about her situation.
After stroking Minami's long hair, the man passed away. Leave a form of worry before it finally disappears, above the sky of Okinawa orange.
Minami was about to take something from her backpack when Yamashita suddenly appeared, carrying a small bag of warm bread. He just threw it on Minami's lap while muttering something very rude.
"Eat. You mustn't die silly before you finish our business."Yamashita smiled blandly, glaring and insisting that her gift should be accepted. What a real dictatorship.
Grunting incoherently, Minami stared at the figure of Yamashita who momentarily disappeared. It's too hard to accept common sense, but strangely enough, no one has seen their interactions. It is likely that Yamashita froze time for a moment.
Trying to ignore it, Minami grabbed a warm bun from inside the cream color carton package.
"Enak," whispered Minami crying over something. I don't know what made him sob, his entire chest rumbled, unbelievably claustrophobic.
...
Two hours later, off the coast of Okinawa.
Half an hour has passed since Minami got off the bus to interview foreign tourists along Kume beach. No one stopped and the taskbook was clean. Her grub-one friend Kotomi, from the beginning had deliberately let Minami think about the task alone. Quiet with personal activity, he stepped aside. It does not affect Minami's difficulties at all.
"Are you born just to be a loser?"chirp Yamashita suddenly stood beside Minami. His bangs danced over his forehead, blowing in the wind from the middle of the ocean.
Minami tried to ignore him, walking away without looking at Yamashita in the least. Unfortunately, the man followed him, passing by some children who were busy looking for the target of the interview. The three of them looked astonished as their new teacher was following the scholarship student.
Now, Minami knows why Yamashita would bother being a teacher. If he continues to be followed, it is not impossible that he will be verbally bullied. It was a good threat considering Yamashita had dozens of impromptu fans.
"Do you need anything, sir?" suddenly, Yoshio's tall figure appeared, pulling Minami's arm towards him. He had to admit Yamashita's existence was exactly like the foreign man the day after yesterday. The rain did make his eyes blur, but it was indeed a strange creature that was eyeing something from Minami. A look filled with the desire of a man.
"Take him off" muttered Yamashita emotion. He did not like to see Minami touched even if it was only on his hands. In the face of Yoshio. The man has not changed at all. In his eyes, in addition to being good at lying, Adjutant Hiroshi in the past has tricked his wife-Kaguya Arashi into antagonizing her own husband. Now, even though things had changed for a long time, Yoshio's fate remained the same, destroying both of them.
"Don't dictate to me, sir. She's my girlfriend, so there's nothing wrong even if I want to fuck her anyway."Yoshio was burning to the point of ignoring Minami's opinion.
At the dark end of the beach, Yoshio tells Minami to follow him. It is free to argue with a teacher if the end value will be reduced due to personal interests.
"Hey, don't ignore me!"yamashita shouted clenching all her energy on the fingers. He does not want to repeat the same mistake. Minami is his, wife and servant in bed for life.
Minami cautiously persuaded Yoshio to speak. He didn't want to end up bad for fighting Yamashita. The demon would definitely find them despite going within a radius of thousands of kilometers though.
"Leave him with me. You have no right to say right. Your bullshit about Minami. She, is my wife. And you're nothing more than the destroyer of relationships."Yamashita scratched her nose, replying to Yoshio's sudden stare in amusement.
Naturally, because that nonsensical remark was the dumbest thing he had ever heard. Minami let out a small sigh, she felt useless if she had to be honest.
"Don't bother us. Look for a more mature woman for you to seduce, but not Minami," Yoshio said, pulling Minami back to leave the place. However, Minami felt another force stopping their steps.
"Step a little, I'll burn you to ashes."
