Sonata No Kioku
11-Red tea & short chat

At 15:30 the school bell rang, indicating the school was over for today. With a flash of movement I hurriedly left the classroom to avoid Haruka and Satoshi who still wanted to invite me to join the obscure music club. Usually they will search around the main building and some other club room, and there lies their weakness I use to hide. Can you guess where I'm hiding?

Damn right! In an abandoned room near the garbage disposal. The room I accidentally found and my secret hiding place, (There's an eps. 06-Dying flower fields).

But strangely from within the soundproof classroom, a muffled violin sound rang out in my ears. Suddenly my mind was in a mess with several questions coming up simultaneously hitting my brain.

"Don't the CD I put up, forget to turn it off and I forgot to bring it home?"

"Damn it!"

I hurriedly approached the door and listened closer to make the sound clear. But disaster came to me this very second through the middle of the door that squeaked open, in an instant my body fell to the floor.

I realized that the song played from the CD was just a thought. Because now right in front of me, a violin maestro, Kanzaki, is standing and looking at me in shock. His shiny brown bow almost slipped from the handle but was held back by it. Maybe my expression right now is almost the same as the expression I'm seeing right now.

"... Why is he in my private room (Which is used without the permission and notice of the teachers)? What's more with a costly violin? What does all this mean?"—batinku.

"—Why?"

Kanzaki started to open his mouth and woke up earlier than me. I also slowly retreated backwards because I was so dizzy to do anything else. His hands started to raise his violin high and point at me.

"Did? Ah, wait a minute! I can explain. Let me tell you, getting hit by a violin can make me die in an instant!"

"They're sown!!" My screams were now running around the room while avoiding him.

His face flushed red as he continued to chase me, until one of his hands threw a DVD that I deliberately stored there. In an instant I took cover behind a door I quickly closed.

"You're crazy, right?? That's my own hard-earned DVD!! I screamed from outside the room.

"Bodo very! What are you doing here? Why is it that whenever I am, I always meet you!! Basic pervert... Stalker... Maniac...!!!" The screams are no less loud.

"I should have said that!" My speech.

I slowly opened the door and looked at her face. "I was the first to find this room by accident. Because baby, I will use it for my personal space.well even though I have not asked permission" I explained.

"I... Got permission from Ken-chan to use this room!" Her speech.

"Oh so... Heh? UHHHH?!!"

"Kenji Kenoshita-sensei? That right?" I asked in disbelief. But seeing a confident nod from him, I ended up sitting limp.

"That's it.." I said softly.

"If you knew. Hurry up out of here!" Her speech.

I, who was just staring blankly at the room, chose to take all my belongings and walk away.

In the warmth of the last sunlight in the twilight today, it faintly felt the wind that penetrated into my body. It felt empty and empty, but I didn't know what it was...

I looked at the slow-moving cloud into the darkness, then looked down at the worn-out floor I was stepping on right now.

"Anyways, I have to protest at Ken-chan!" My speech.

🎶

At 16:00 I returned to the main school building, angrily I walked down the corridor connecting to his private room.

"While I haven't asked permission, he should have asked his student first! Don't give me that permission!!" I grumbled to feel displeased with Ken-chan's policy.

But somehow my anger subsided as I approached the door of the music room. My eyes were fixed on a poster that had fallen right on my face, when I picked up the sight of a musician on the rise lately. King Metal's real name is Itou Maki, the guitarist of rock music.

"He was again interested in rock music as it turned out... But isn't this too blatant?"—I knocked on that door asking permission to enter. " Ken-chan, can I come in?" My speech.

Since I already knew of his nature that did not necessarily answer, I shifted the door and entered. "Excuse me" I closed the door and walked towards her busy self listening to the horse race.

"Win!! Finally!!" Excited while dancing cheerfully.

"Aw, Ken-chan?" Call me.

He stopped while glancing at me with a dislike look. Then he threw himself on the sofa. "Yes? What are you looking for me for?"

"Eh, anu...—if I protest about the room Kanzaki-san is wearing, where maybe he believes Ah bu-kan— is nothing" I replied after a long time of thought.

"Hmm, come here and sit down, boy, accompany me to tea while waiting for the sun to set" he said.

Even though I shook his head, he still pulled my hand and told me to sit on the chair.

"Before you accompany me to tea, I'll tell you something important" he said

"What's that?" Much

"Do you see that burning stove?" He asked back while pointing at a stove beside the shelf.

"Yes, then?" I'm confused

"I'm actually heating the water please turn it off. Keep her red tea bags in the drawer and her sugar on the top shelf. Oh yes, do not forget to take the cookies out of the oven, yes." he replied.

So he dragged me to do all this?😒

"Ah yes, the sugar is enough 2 teaspoons only and the tea is just one cup okay" he added it with an annoying accent.

"Heh, Ken-chan doesn't want to drink too?" My toot.

Fucking fiends... But yeah, what else. Just resign..🙂

I did exactly what Ken-chan said to me earlier. But suddenly he said something that made me want to burn this room even more. Why not, he said this:

"Hei Ta-chan, if you really want her to drink that rare red tea, just suck the tea bag. Of course I won't ban you.."

"No thanks then I go home." I said goodbye and walked towards the door. Ken-chan pats my back while talking. "However, that's how it is.."

"Based on the devil." I said with a smile full of anger.

"Hahaha" he just chanted with a gleeful laugh.

🎶

After preparing two cups of red tea and one plate of chocolate pastries, I was finally able to sit in relief on the chair quietly.

"You're here to protest about the room Shiori-chan used, right?" Said.

I almost spouted the tea I just shaved.

"Uhukis... Uhuk.... Uhuk.. b-how does Ken-chan know?!" Manya surprised.

"Wah wow... True, I actually already know if you use the room for more than a week. I sometimes go into the room you've fixed and I'm surprised, you fix musical instruments there too.."

"Ohhh!!"

I started to panic and planned to run away or hide. But not the man whose name if faced with this little problem alone is already weak, then I do not deserve to be called a real man!

"But you take it easy Ta-chan. Since you are very earnest in repairing and cleaning the room, I will forgive your mistakes. I just found out about this anyway"

"I'm sorry, I won't repeat it again"

"If not on the day of the OSIS meeting Shiori-chan asked for my permission to use the room, I would have continued to pretend to be silent ignorant. Isn't this a sweet coincidence?"

I raised my head looking down at the floor and looked at Ken-chan. He laughed as he stroked my head gently. "If you want to use the room, persuade Shiori-chan, okay"

"Did? That's an impossible thing"

"Haha, isn't it a good idea to get along with each other?"

"No! That's never gonna happen!"

"Don't, Ken-chsn and Kanzaki-san already know each other, huh?" I guess just now. He nodded in an instant.

"Yes, I used to be his grandfather's mainstay student. That's why I used to play with Shiori-chan in that vast courtyard of the house.."

At that instant, his face seemed a little lonely. It was as if tears were coming down her cheeks.

"Actually, there is something

it happened, until he finally moved to this school. He told me that he wanted a room that he could use himself. That was a request

selfish of a pagan young lady, but because she did not want to trouble anyone, it became ...."

"You agreed to use my private room"

He nodded weakly with a lonely look that he was trying to cover from me.

"But why is he playing the violin again? Didn't he quit the music scene?, then why did he suddenly play it again?"

"I can't say it ...," his expression turned serious. "... after all, he himself did not want anyone else to know. To be honest ..., I think it would be better if he didn't do that, but in the end, the decision remained in Shiori-chan's own hands."

I don't understand a bit about that

ken-chan is saying, and Kanzaki isn't explaining anything to me either.

I got up and greeted you to leave this room. When he opened the door, he said to me again:

"Why don't you try to talk to him?

Who knows, you can share that room together. Yeah, right?"

"I've tried to talk, but he's trying to kill by hitting him with his violin."

"You gave up Ta-chan too soon! Try to understand, huh?"

"Actually in this talk, which part should I understand?!" I asked with a slight tone of emphasis.

Ken-chan just kept quiet and didn't answer. I slowly saw a faint smile from him.. "Sooner or later you'll know everything, Ta-chan"

The sun has set. The music room I occupied now began to be devoured by darkness. With a blank look, I remained silent for a thousand languages until I finally closed the door just as Ken-chan looked down lethargic.

"What is the young lady really hiding?"
