"I can't figure this out!" Chihiro cried. She scratched out the math problem.
"Can't figure out what, dear?" her mother asked coming into her room.
"This math problem." Chihiro sighed. "It's too hard."
"Maybe you should see about getting a tutor," her mom suggested.
Chihiro stuck her tongue at her mom. "No way."
"Chihiro," her mom said sternly. "First thing Monday I want you to go see your sensei and have him get you a tutor. You don't need to fail."
"I know." Chihiro gave up. She knew she had to pass so she could get into a good college. "I promise." She shoved her math work to the side of her desk and stood up. "I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat?"

Chihiro groaned. "I don't want to do this."
"Excuse me. Chihiro?"
Chihiro turned around to see one of her classmates, Kona standing behind her. He had short black and blue eyes. "Hello, Kona."
Kona nodded. "Chihiro. I was wondering if you were doing anything Friday night. Maybe we can go out or something."
Chihiro smiled at the boy's question. He was cute, she had to admit. "Actually, Kona, I don't think I'll be going anywhere except school for a while. I'm doing pretty bad in math and mom wants me to get a tutor."
Kona's eyes grew wide. "You need tutoring?" Chihiro nodded. "In what subject?"
Chihiro sweat dropped. "Math."
"Oh." Kona blushed. "I would volunteer, but I'm not very good in math myself."
"Chihiro looked at him and smiled. "Thanks, Kona. Maybe when I catch up I'll take you up on that date."
Kona blushed. "Ok."
"I've got to get going now. I need to talk to Horoshi-sensei."
"Alright. I'll see you in class then."
"Bye, Kona."
Chihiro took off running through the school toward her sensei's office. Once there she knocked and waited.
"Come in," came the voice from the other side of the door.
Chihiro opened the door and walked in. Her sensei was seated at his desk going over some paperwork. He looked up at her surprised.
"Chihiro! What a surprise. What can I do for you?" He folded his hands on his desk in front of him.
Chihiro closed the door behind her. "I need a tutor, please?" Now where did that seem familiar?
Horoshi nodded. "Is this about the math?"
"Yes it is."
"Your in luck then," he said smiling. "We just got a new student today and he's very proficient in math. And since he's new, he doesn't know anyone, or even his way around here yet. So how about I ask him to tutor you if you show him around?"
Chihiro nodded. "That would fine."
"Great! I'll be introducing him in class today." He looked up at the clock on the wall. "Class is going to start soon. You better hurry to class. I'll catch up with you."
Chihiro nodded. "Alright. Thanks, Horoshi-sensei."
"No problem, Chihiro. Anything to help." He hummed a tune as he rushed Chihiro out of the office and went off to gather his books.
