Disclaimer : I don't own Digimon and its characters. Bandai© owns them. I adapted 'My Tutor Friend' from a Korean movie. The song I used in this chapter is "Crazy For You" of Madonna.
Chapter Six : Unbelievable
The students of Jounan High were surprised.
Surprised? About what?
Whenever "this person" passes through, the students make way.
Who is this?
"Is that Ishida-kun?" a female student whispered to another.
"Yeah---but why is he holding a book and wearing reading glasses?" the other replied.
Indeed, it was Yamato---holding a book in front of his eyes and wearing a pair of reading glasses.
Davis and Ken, who are behind him, looked kind of shy.
"What was his breakfast?" Ken whispered to Davis.
"Maybe he woke up in the wrong side of bed," Davis replied.
Yamato entered the male comfort room to see Davis and Ken using two of the male urinary toilets located on the comfort room wall.
He used the one in the middle.
"In 1192, Yoritomo introduced the Shogun System," Yamato said.
Ken looked at Yamato.
"Huh?" Ken blurted.
"Do you two even know what the Shogun System means?" Yamato asked, looking at each of them.
"Of course! That's when guys with long, freaky facial hair fight each other!" Davis answered dumbly.
Yamato slapped his head.
"Study more!" he said.
Yamato turned and proceeded to the sink.
He washed his hands and exited the comfort room.
"Doesn't shoguns have long, freaky facial hair?" Davis asked Ken.
"Never mind that! Why was he studying so hard anyway?" Ken said.
Yamato knelt beside Mimi as she checked the exercises she told him to answer.
When Mimi encircled item #48, Yamato bit his lip. That was the 22nd wrong answer so far.
"You know, I've thought of this last night," Mimi said. "It's better if you should just go to America and build your own group of terrorists than staying here in Japan and trouble my life."
Mimi checked the last two test items.
"Or maybe you could also bring along some yakuzas there," Mimi suggested.
Yamato looked at Mimi questioningly.
"You call yourself a tutor?" Yamato asked.
Mimi slammed the pen on the table.
"How can you even get an average of 50 if even in this exercise, you only get an 18 out of 50?" Mimi asked, looking at him tiredly.
Yamato crossed his arms and pinched her cheek.
"So what will you do if I get a 50 average?" Yamato asked.
Mimi thought, Yamato's hand still pinching her cheek.
Mimi shoved his hand and faced him.
"I'll sing in our university's cultivating festival," Mimi said, her other brow, raised.
Yamato laughed.
"That's a deal remember?" he said.
Mimi pinched his nose.
"That is, if you pass your exams," she said, removing her hand from his nose and sticking her tongue out.
Five nerdy guys stood in front of Yamato.
He gave each of them a piece of candy.
"Sorry to call for you, guys," Yamato said.
The guys stood straight, as if they were worried that Yamato would punch them if they wouldn't stand still.
"I will assign each of you a subject and then you will make 50 questions for me. Be sure that those questions will come out in the exams," Yamato said.
Exam time!
Yamato wore his reading glasses and was concentrating on his exams.
Davis and Ken?
They kept on looking at each other, asking questions via eye contact.
50.1
Mimi stared at the report card.
She looked up from it and saw Yamato's broad grin.
Mimi crumpled the paper and was about to pop it into her mouth when Yamato got hold of her wrist.
He snatched the crumpled report card and fixed it again.
"What the hell did you just do! It's mine. I still need to show this to mom and dad!" Yamato said.
Mimi wore a grave look across her face.
She's supposed to be happy!
Yeah she was happy but she just remembered the promise she told him.
"Now, let's go to your university!" Yamato said.
Yamato snatched her hands and pulled her.
Mimi refused but he kept on pulling her to his direction.
"Yamato! We can talk this over! You can smoke two cartons during our class just don't let me sing! I was just joking!" Mimi said.
"Don't be a weasel, Mimi," Yamato said.
But Mimi still refused to go.
Yamato carried her.
"Put me down! Put me down!" she shrieked.
He ignored her and continued walking.
"Ladies and gentlemen! Our next presenter is a College Junior major in English Literature. Give it up for Mimi Tachikawa," the announcer said.
The sound of "Crazy For You" (of Madonna) danced through Tokyo University's hall.
Mimi appeared on stage wearing a white tube dress and gold high heels timidly, hesitant to sing.
Her hair in an elegant ponytail.
Yamato sat on the audience's seat, smiling broadly at the sight of Mimi.
Swaying room as the music starts
Strangers making the most of the dark
Two by two their bodies become one
Mimi sang timidly, her legs shaking.
Yamato watched intently.
I see you in the smoky airCan't you feel the weight of my stare?
You're so close but still a world away
Mimi walked a couple of steps forward as she sang, her other hand on the microphone while the other rests on her chest.
What I'm dying to sayIs that I'm crazy for you
Touch me once and you'll know it's trueShe closed her eyes, feeling the song. She's getting used of it.
I never wanted anyone like thisIt's all brand new
You'll feel it in my kiss
I'm crazy for you
Yamato parked his motorcycle in front of 'Yuri's Poultry Shop'.
Mimi removed her helmet and got off the motorcycle.
Yamato smirked at her. "Nice song."
Mimi stuck her tongue out. "I hate you!"
Yamato examined the name of the poultry shop.
"Who is 'Yuri'?" he asked.
"She is my unborn sister," she said.
"Oh," Yamato said.
Mimi smiled at him and thanked him for the ride.
As she walked a few steps towards her home, Yamato called her.
"Hey!"
"Yup?"
"You have plans for tomorrow?"
"None of your business."
"I was just asking."
"Our club in highschool volunteered to help in an orphanage."
Yamato leaned in to his motorcycle. "Is that dorky, highschool classmate of yourscoming?"
Mimi smiled. "Who? My honey, Michael?"
"Honey my ass!" Yamato mocked. "So is he coming?"
"Why would I go if he wouldn't?"
"Look at you! Is that a volunteer's attitude!" Yamato said.
"It's my business, dummy!" Mimi said and eventually went inside her home.
