It was Chitose who had been coming over to cook for him recently, and also made deer antler soup for him every now and then.
Fujii Itsuki turned over and prepared to get up.
But as soon as he moved, he realized something was wrong.
Fujii Itsuki really couldn't accept this fact. He slapped himself on the forehead, was dazed for a long time, and quickly got up to go to the bathroom to tidy up.
After urgently hand-washing his trousers and hanging them on the balcony, Fujii Itsuki leaned against the sliding door and looked up at the sky.
He was wondering, since he hadn't touched a woman for more than 20 years, did he really need to find a woman to fall in love with?
I'm already in my twenties, and will be twenty-seven soon.
How could such a thing happen to a 16- or 17-year-old boy?!
I actually dreamed about Jiuhua, and then——
Ugh!
Fujii Itsuki was too embarrassed to tell anyone about this!
It's really a headache.
Fujii Itsuki held his head, took out his cell phone and checked the time - there was no time for breakfast.
He then went back to his bedroom, put on his clothes and pants, tied his tie in front of the mirror, smoothed his hair, and after making sure he looked like a young teacher, he prepared to go out to work.
Before leaving the bedroom, Fujii Itsuki looked back at his room. It was a mess and the quilt had not been made up yet.
Is this because Jiuhua didn't urge me?
No, why did you think of Jiuhua again?
Forget it, I’m too lazy to sort it out, I’ll deal with it when I come back.
Fujii Itsuki got on the bus and rushed to school.
When he arrived at school, it was not yet time for the morning meeting, so Fujii Itsuki went to take a look at the wind orchestra.
Coincidentally, I met Akai Muzi who was rushing back at the stairs of the club building.
"Fujii?"
"Ah, Akai-sensei, good morning."
"Fujii, there's no one here right now, so there's no need to greet each other so formally." Akagi Muzi said with a smile while holding the folder, "Why do you seem so unfamiliar?"
“It’s at school after all.”
"That's not the reason. You weren't like this when we first came to this school, Fujii."
"Is it?"
"Didn't you always call me Akai Akai at the beginning? You would only call me 'Akai teacher' when you saw students in front of you, but now..." Akai Muzi noticed Fujii Itsuki's eyes, "You don't look very energetic, did you not sleep well last night?"
At night I often dream about Jiuhua stripping off my clothes and kissing me forcefully.
Does it count if I had a wet dream today?
He really wanted to scold himself.
You are already grown up, how could such an embarrassing thing happen to you?
Fujii Itsuki sighed: "A little bit."
"You've been thinking too much about the wind band. You've been rehearsing all the time lately and you've exhausted yourself."
"A little bit, after all, we have to prepare for the Hokkaido Tournament."
"There's nothing wrong with rehearsals, and there's nothing wrong with you being the class teacher," Akai Muzi suddenly sighed, "but how can your energy compare to the young kids in the wind band club? Don't make it hard on yourself."
Akai Muzi sighed again, she felt that Fujii Itsuki was working too hard.
"Why don't you leave these things to me these days."
Fujii Itsuki reacted, "How can this be possible!"
"Why not? Fujii, don't make it hard on yourself. Let me watch you suffer."
"I'm sorry to bother you, Akai. Last time I asked for three days off, I asked you to help me with the lessons for the wind band during those days. How can I feel good about bothering you again this time?"
"Who told you that you are the person I like?"
".?"
Akai Muzi smiled slightly, "Didn't you understand?"
"No, I just understood, so - is this considered a confession?"
"Confession? Well, you can kind of say that."
"."
Fujii Itsuki was silent for a while. Just as he was about to speak, he was interrupted by Akai Muko who closed her eyes. She lowered her voice and said:
"Don't worry, this is not a confession, Fujii, don't feel any psychological burden. I also know that there will be no response if I confess to you, I am just stating an established fact."
".The fact that you still like me?"
"Yes."
Fujii Itsuki: "But I won't give you any response now."
"I understand, I know that," Akai Muzi said, "Besides, even if you tell me now and clearly reject me, I can accept it. This will not prevent me from doing these things for you. I am willing."
Willingly
"What's the reason?"
"There is no reason, and I don't need any response or return. It's just because I still like you and I can't bear to see you suffer. That's all."
"."
Fujii Itsuki was silent again.
"And I'm really sorry that I left you in the past because I wanted to pursue my dream."
At this point, Akai Muzi laughed.
"Helping you like this can be considered as paying back the guilt of my past self!"
During this call, Fujii Itsuki could not find any point to refute.
This is true.
Ugh.
"Thank you for your kindness, but it's really not necessary. There's no need to trouble you Akagi to do so much extra work these two days. I will do my job well. After all, it's a goal I set for myself."
"Is that clear?"
Akai Muzi knew that this was a rejection.
He didn't want to owe himself any more favors.
"Oh, right! I feel like calling you Fujii seems a bit strange. Can I call you Itsuki from now on?"
Fujii Itsuki: "That's fine, it's just a name, whatever you want."
"In contrast, you can just call me Muzi like you did in the past."
"Well, yes."
Fujii Itsuki followed Akai Muzi to the office.
During the conversation, we also talked about the wind orchestra.
In fact, Fujii Itsuki was not opposed to talking to Muzi, even after she made her attitude clear to him.
On the contrary, he was very grateful to Muzi.
She still remembers the old relationship and helps me so much for nothing without asking for anything in return.
June 1st had just passed, and Fujii Itsuki had used his salary to buy some gifts for the children in the welfare home, and also met with the director.
When the dean was talking to me, he also hinted that I should find a girlfriend as soon as possible, but he didn't say it explicitly.
Fujii Itsuki could see that the dean really wanted him and Muzi to get back together and that he could start a family and build a career as soon as possible.
The dean has high blood pressure, and to be honest, his physical condition is just average.
Fujii Itsuki really wanted to make the dean happy for a while.
Maybe, let Muzi deal with the dean?
"By the way, Fujii, the destination of the summer school trip has been decided. We will leave in five days."
"Where? Okinawa?"
"Tokyo."
"."
At this moment, Fujii Itsuki thought of Jiuhuayue again.
How has this child been doing in Tokyo over the past half month?
How come there is no connection with me at all?
"Why Tokyo?"
"Because of the wind band, this national competition is held in Yurakucho, Chiyoda. Since the slogan is the national competition, we naturally have to take the children to the finish line to see it."
".The school is very thoughtful."
"Besides, since you are the homeroom teacher of Class A, your class will also have a training session for the wind band this time, so you and I will be in charge of it together."
"."
"Shu, why are you in a daze?" Akai Muzi stretched out her hand and waved it in front of his eyes. "Are you thinking about your friend who went back to Tokyo? Are you missing her?"
"That's not the case, don't talk nonsense."
The school trip is scheduled for five days later.
The class went on as usual.
Fujii Itsuki took the textbook, wrote down the key points of knowledge on the blackboard, turned around and waited for his classmates to finish copying.
