15 Ways to Ask your Ideal Seigaku Regulars Out?

Little Victories

Momoshiro Takeshi, self- acclaimed Seigaku's No. 1 Power House Player, never liked ALGEBRA. In fact, he hated… correction loathed MATH with all his being.

Tachibana Ann, Tachibana Kippei's younger sister. A tennis player and a Math Whiz.

This is one of those days that Momo wish never happens 'Examination Week' he thought miserably. Momo let out a heavy sigh. Echizen looked at him with bored eyes. "What's wrong with you Momo-sempai?" he asked.

"Nothing" Momo answered gloomily. Echizen just shrugged and drank his Ponta.

"I'm going to run some errands for my cousin, see you tomorrow Momo-sempai, Ja ne" Echizen said and rounded on the next street, Momo just give the young boy a slight wave.

'How am I going to pass the exam…? Mou! Algebra is really annoying… correction, math is annoying!' Momo thought.

Unknown to the Seigaku player he is being watched. 'Momoshiro looks gloomy. I wonder what's his problem… he wasn't dropped from the regulars again right?' she thought. Ann decided to approach the tennis player.

"Yo!" she greeted. Momo looked at her way and nodded. Ann raised an eyebrow. "Hey! What's wrong with you?" she asked. Momo shook his head. "Nothing" he murmured.

"Yeah right, look at yourself… you look like a walking zombie… you're not dropped from your regular's position right" she inquired. "No" Momo answered. "Then what's your problem…" Ann prodded.

Momo sighed. "Finals" he answered and sighed again. "Finals? What's with the finals?" Ann asked. "You won't understand." Momo said. "Try me" Ann said challenging the boy.

"I hate Algebra, I'm not good at it." He answered. Sitting down at a park bench. "I think I get the picture" Ann said. "I can help you. Good thing algebra is one subject I'm good at, so don't look so bad, it doesn't suit you. Cheer up!" she said giving Momo a big smile.

Momo looked shocked. "But, you're a year younger than me! how can you be good at algebra when you haven't taken algebra before?" Momo said. "Cram School" Ann answered. "Wow! You're a genius" he said obviously envious. "So, do you want help?" Ann asked. "How can I say no to a very generous offer…" Momo answered with a big smile.

"Now that's the Momoshiro I know… when are you willing to start?" Ann asked. "You?" Momo asked her in return. "Tennis practice ends at 6 and my cram school is not till 9pm so we still have 3 hours a day… is that okay with you?" Ann said. "Absolutely perfect" Momo answered brightly.

"Where are you going by the way? This isn't your way home," Momo asked curiously. "I went to one of my classmate's house, we did some research and finish our project," Ann answered adjusting her bag and her tennis bag. Momo snatched her tennis bag. "I'll carry this for you, you're quite handful" he said. "Thanks" Ann muttered with a slight blush.

DAY 1

"Factors are the numbers you multiply to get another number." Ann explained.

Momo nodded, listening intently.

"For instance, the factors of 15 are 3 and 5, because 3×5 15. Some numbers have more than one factorization." Ann continued explaining pointing at Momo's notes.

"Hmm…" Momo acknowledge her explanation.

"By the way what is factorization again?" Ann asked Momo.

"It is a way a number is being factored." Momo answered.

"I'll take that as a correct answer… let's continue…" Ann said. "For instance, 12 can be factored as 1×12, 2×6, or 3×4. A number that can only be factored as 1 times itself is called?" Ann said

"Prime" Momo answered proudly.

"Good, the first few primes are 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, and 13. The number 1 is not regarded as a prime, and is usually not included in factorizations, because 1 goes in to everything." Ann explained.

DAY 2

"There are many geometric formulas, relating height, width, length, or radius to perimeter, area, surface area, or volume. Some of the formulas are rather complicated, and you hardly ever see them, let alone use them. But, there are some basic formulas that you really should memorize." Ann said Momo nodded.

"For instance, it is very easy to find the area of a rectangle, it is just the length l times the width w" Ann said writing down the formula while Momo looked at it.

"Okay" he answered.

"Squares are even simpler, because their lengths and widths are identical. Do you remember the formula?" Ann asked. Momo scratched his head with his mechanical pencil and wrote down some formulas on his scratch paper.

"Asqr s2 and Psqr 4s" Momo muttered. Ann gave a big smile.

DAY 3

"This rounding works the same way when they tell you to round to a certain place. The only difference is that you have to be a bit more careful in counting off the places you need." Ann said looking at Momo who nodded. "Just remember that the decimal places count off to the right in the same order as the counting numbers count off to the left. That is, for regular numbers, you have the place values: … (ten-thousands) (thousands) (hundreds) (tens) (ones)."

"And for decimal places, you don't have a "oneths", but you do have the other fractions: (decimal point) (tenths) (hundredths) (thousandths) (ten-thousandths)..." Momo said. Ann nodded.

DAY 4

"Linearequations are equations with just a plain old variable like "x", rather than something more complicated like x2 or xy or square roots or such." Ann said. Momo yawn before nodding.

"Are you okay Momoshiro?" Ann asked.

"Gomen… I'm fine" Momo blushed.

"It's okay, do you want to call it a day?" Ann asked.

"No, I'm fine really" Momo insisted wanting to spend more time with Ann.

"I know that the ranking selection is coming so is finals… I think it's better if we relax a bit." Ann suggested.

"Okay… ne, do you want to grab something to eat?" Momo asked. Ann smiled and nodded. "Sure."

Momo paid for their meal "You don't need to do that" Ann said with a slight blush.

"Just think of it as a way of thanking you for teaching me algebra." Momo said. Ann nodded.

After eating Ann bid Momoshiro goodbye, Momo grab her hand. "I'll walk you to your cram school," he said.

"EH?!" Ann was about to argue but Momo already led the way.

FINALS came…

SCHOOL BELL

"At last!" Momo stretched his arms upwards.

"Momo-chan! You look relieved!" Reika teased.

"I am! At last, algebra is over! I can worry about the ranking selection" Momo said. He flipped his cell phone open and dialed a number.

"Moshi-Moshi" the voice on the other line answered

"Yo!" Momo greeted.

"How did it go?" asked the voice on the other line.

"Fine… I guess…" Momo answered.

"Why did you call?" the voice asked.

"Nothing… I just want to…e-err… catch you at the same place… practice time" Momo said and hung up.

--

NEXT DAY

"Momoshiro, I am surprised on your test result… you did great" the teacher said.

Momo grinned widely as the teacher handed him his test result.

"A+! WOW! A actual A+! this is just great" Momo said.

"WHOA! Momo-chan! You rock!" Reika slapped Momoshiro's back.

"Hehehehehe" Momo snickered. Momo pulled his cell phone out and type a message.

"-Meet me at the same place after school- Momo"

--

Ann walks towards the street where she usually meets up with Momoshiro.

"I wonder why he wanted to meet up" Ann muttered to herself. She smiled. 'Whatever, at least I get to see him again'. She leans at the wall. Some kid ran pass her knocking her bag out of her hand.

"Watch were you going!" Ann called. She bent down and was about to grab her bag when a hand lifted it from the ground.

"Eh" Ann exclaimed and look up, she found Momoshiro smiling down at her.

"Momoshiro" she muttered his name a smile forming on her face.

"YO!" he greeted her with a bright smile.

"You're late" she pointed out taking her bag from him. She pouted cutely.

"Gomen" he scratch his head sheepishly.

"So?" Ann asked looking back at him with a smile.

They walked together.

Momo walk ahead of her and place a paper in front of her face making her blink a couple of times.

"A+" Ann read the paper. Ann's eyes widen.

"I passed!" Momo said happily.

Ann remained stunned 'IT ACTUALLY WORKED!' she thought.

Before she knew it, she's being envelope in a tight hug.

"All thanks to you my cute teacher" he said bending down to give Ann a kiss on the nose.

"I'm looking forward to more of our MATH LESSONS" he said with a smile.

Ann blush 10 times red. "MOMOSHIRO!" she exclaimed. Her heart pounding.

"Hmmm?!" Momo asked innocently but his eyes glints mischievously.

"Let's celebrate!" Ann said smiling brightly.

"I thought you have a cram school" Momo said eyes sparkling.

"Well, one absence wont hurt" Ann said. Momo laughed grabbing Ann's hand to settle with his.

"Yosh! Let's go! Want to watch a movie? How about karaoke?" Momo said. Ann just smiled at him and nodded.
