Chapter 2 : The Learner
The Black and White AE86 trueno was parked outside the tofu shop.
This is the Accelerator Pedal, this is the Clutch and that is the brakes... This is how you steer using the steering wheel... Takumi repeating all these to the father. Takumi felt really bored because he already know what are those. He had seen how the father drive when he followed him up and downhill of Akina to send tofu to customers and sometimes to visit his mechanic.
Alright the father said. Without further instructions, the father told Takumi to drive. As if Bunta can actually read Takumi's mind. Takumi was thinking to himself. Finally something practical rather than just repeating stuff. Takumi fastened the seat belts and sat properly. Started the engine, clutch and entered first gear... The car jerked a bit before moving.. the car jerked again when Takumi changed gears. Bunta was sitting beside him, giving no expression when they pass thru the back lane of their shoplot. Takumi kept to the firrst 3 gears and drive around the block a few times. His adaptation and learning progress was fast. By the next hour, he already master moving the car from first gear and gear changing.
alright, enough training for today. You better go finish up your homework. Bunta said when Takumi stopped the car in front of the shop. Takumi was lightened up. Now he can finish up his home work in time before watching his favorite anime series, Gundam Seed.
Bunta sat on the bonet of the AE86. Lighting up another cigg and was in a deep thought. Not bad for the first time. Maybe I can speed the process up a bit and teach him something else tomorrow. But before that... I will get the car set up first.
Bunta drove off with the AE86 to see his trusty mechanic.
