As the test finally over, Akari already went back to the teacher's lounge. At the same time, a group of students from 2-B - Emu, Shiho, Saki, and Mizuki were seen chatting with each other.
"Kizuna-sensei wore a penguin costume earlier?" Shiho was a bit shocked.
"Yeah, and she even accidentally bumped on my brother" Saki stated.
"Obviously Kizuna-sensei is deprived of sleep, that's what I can say" Emu deducted.
"Should we offer some help for Kizuna-sensei?" Mizuki suggested.
"But how?" Saki was clueless.
Fortunately, an awesome idea just appeared in Emu's mind.
"I know!" Emu exclaimed.
The other three were staring at Emu.
"The only thing we need..."
Mizuki and Shiho were exchanging looks.
"Is a futon!"
"A futon? Are you being serious?" Shiho was skeptical.
"Trust me, it will work!" Emu assured.
"But where can we get a futon?" Mizuki asked.
"Then let's go to the school store! There's a person who can help with our course!"
...
"Chika-san!"
The four students were calling for the clerk as they just arrived at the school store.
Soon, a pretty young lady then showed up herself.
"Yes?"
It was Rana, Chika's assistant.
"Rana-chan! Is Chika-san here?" Emu asked.
"Just wait for a while, okay?"
Not long after Rana walked away, Chika finally appeared to meet the students.
"Good morning!" Chika greeted them. "How can I help you girls?"
"Chika-san, can we rent a futon for a day?" Emu asked.
"Rent a futon? Sure!"
"Wait a minute, you rent your futons to other people as well?" Saki was dumbfounded.
"I'm just helping every persons in school if needed" Chika smiled. "But of course it always comes with a price!"
"You are a bit materialistic" Shiho commented.
Chika then took a futon before gave it to them.
"Thanks!" Emu thanked her.
"Now let's go find Kizuna-sensei!" Mizuki said.
...
"Ugh..."
Inside the teacher's lounge, Akari silently watched an online video of Arab men camping in the desert as she was clutching a white mochi pillow, given to her by Zunko. There's a mug of hot chocolate drink seen on her desk.
"Make sure that you keep your eyes upon your surroundings..." the Arab commentator explained.
"Kizuna-sensei!"
Much to her own surprise, Emu and Mizuki just came inside the lounge just to meet her.
"Hey, girls! Is there anything I can help?" Akari asked.
"Sensei, I'm understand that you're so tired right now" Emu said.
"And we are here to help you, Kizuna-sensei!" Mizuki added. "But you have to follow us first!"
"Helping me?" Akari was confused.
(One minute later)
"TA-DA!"
Couldn't believe it, her own students just setting up a futon for her.
"Am I dreaming right now?" Akari was shocked.
"No, Sensei! We're really preparing this for you!" Saki said.
"Thanks, everyone..." Akari awkwardly thanked her students. "But..."
"What's wrong, Sensei?" Shiho asked out of concern.
"You know, sleeping during school hours is against the rules" Akari reminded.
"But your well-being are much more important, Sensei!" Mizuki replied.
"Come on, Kizuna-sensei! You need to rest not matter what!" Emu insisted as she gently bring her to the futon.
...
"How do you feel, Sensei?" Emu asked.
Akari somehow felt much better after she laid herself on the futon.
"It's very warm and fluffy" Akari smiled in relief.
"Good to hear it!" Emu was gladful.
"And we have decided to accompany you inside this club room, Sensei!" Mizuki added.
"Eh?" Akari's expression changed. "But you cannot skip your classes!"
"Don't worry, Sensei! We don't really mind even if Sakine-sensei or Yuzuki-sensei will put us into detention!" Shiho assured.
"Anything for you, Sensei!" Saki cheered for her teacher.
Akari took a deep sigh before finally speak.
"Alright" Akira smiled.
"YAY!"
All of the girls then snuggled closer to their beloved teacher.
"Finally I can get some rest!" Mizuki was excited.
Akira began to wonder, she is always known for her childlike personality. But today was different, the girls were treating her as if she was their mother who cares for her children.
"Kizuna-sensei?" Emu was looking at her teacher.
"Yes?"
"Can you gives us a headpat?" Emu requested.
"Okay"
...
Akari was sleeping peacefully on the futon, seemingly undisturbed...
Until a random person suddenly splashed water on her face.
When Akari finally opened her eyes in shock, the perpetrators were non other than Meiko and Yukari thenselves. The Math teacher even carried a large-sized water gun with her.
"There you are, Akari!" Meiko unceremoniously greeted her.
"Sleeping in the club room, huh?" Yukari frowned.
"Meiko!? Yukari!?" Akari was completely shocked.
The other students also woke up from their sleep as well.
"Sensei! What are you doing in here?" Emu just pretended like nothing happened.
"And why do you kids are skipping our classes?" Yukari asked in half-anger.
"We're just taking a short nap, Sensei..." Mizuki yawned.
"It's already 3PM yet you call it a short nap!?" Yukari felt triggered.
"And as for the punishment, Yuzuki-sensei have decided to put all of your in detention for three days starting tomorrow!" Meiko ordered.
Akari however felt the urge to defy her own colleagues for the sake of her students.
"You tyrant!"
"Excuse me!?" Yukari was confused.
"No one can put my students into detention!" Akari insisted.
"Long live Kizuna-sensei!" Shiho chanted.
"I'm the Morals Commitee Advisor, remind you!" Meiko replied angrily.
However, as long as Kizuna-sensei was happy, so does they.
