how can i survive the teacher world
This story is of a 25-year-old man named Sultan Ali, who is a single from the day he was born, the best football player since when he joined the pro football team, he is an Indian who moved to UK for his studies and found his love in football and worked hard for his dream to come true, but there is a problem in his life...that he always wins since his debut, the boredom has taken over him, he wants his everyday life to be thrilling, he wants new impossible tasks to be made possible... let’s see what he does to bring his new thrilling life possible
Chapter-1: ~ How do I lose??
It is the day after we won the final, it was boring, what I could do was just play some video games, but after that, I didn’t really have much to do, I was single but had a humorous side, I got this from my dear friend “Yota Fujimoto” we became friends when he came on a holiday to UK, I loved his sense of humor, whatever he said was funny.... that’s why I liked him.
It was around 3 pm now, still, I was playing games from the morning thank God my mother is in India, if she would have seen me playing games for 9 hours, she would have been sniped me with her slipper and buried my computer, “rest in peace my dear friend you served my desires very well and you will get your reward”
After some time I get a call from my Fuji
“Are you serious dude, what kind of idiot are you, you jerk”
“Hey-hey say curse me one time in a sentence please”
“I am not opening a cursing shop here you idiot, but first explain why the hell you were not in the award ceremony after the match, you had a whole trophy to lift and you went home right after the match finished? What are you an idiot?”
“What? I already did it 4 times, I am already bored of winning, isn’t there anything else that will thrill me every day?”
“I don’t know and what do mean by bored, every day you train like a big fat muscle head idiot”
“I am already bored of doing that every day I need something else in my life which excites me every day”
“Get a wife then virgin!!”
At this point, I realized that whenever I have talked to a woman my gut jumps around and my brain gives up on living while the heart starts disco dancing.
“Can you please stop hurting my heart how cruel can you get”
“it’s your fault why can’t you talk to a girl, here I have a tip for you, just assume that all girls are cheese wheels”
“haven’t you given me that tip to me before?”
“Oh yes, I have, now I remember it, did you use that? I am sure you would have talked to a girl after my advice”
“Screw your advice, you bastard!! I tried talking to my doctor with your advice, but I accidentally talked out loud that she is a cheese wheel! She kicked my balls and never called me back, I had to find another doctor for my balls.
“hahaha, that’s what you get a worthless piece of shit”
“Oh, am I? or should I tell your wife about that woman you were talking to on social media?”
“What are you talking about, I don’t know about what you are talking about, I don’t know who that is?
“Oh, what was her name Ayako-”
“Shut up, ok I won’t tease you, I am sorry, just don’t talk about her my wife will hear.”
“But really, I am fed up with my life, it’s boring”
“But I thought that you were living a very happy life”
“You have a lot to see my friend”
“Why are you talking like a 70-year-old high school teacher, stop that is weird”
As I hear his words, I suddenly went into the thoughts of my physics teacher, I said to myself, what he might be doing? is he still teaching, I know it’s really hard to teach physics to high school students but he should have gotten tired. As I said it an idea around my head started to appear, what if I started teaching physics to high school students, I know I have taught very well to my brother when he was in high school, I suddenly asked Fuji
“Yo!! Is there any high school where I can teach physics in Japan?”
“What dude, you are a professional football player, why would you teach physics to high school students”
“I will quit football”
“What the hell has got in your mind to be that reckless?”
“Just shut up and find me a good high school where I can teach physics in Japan, and if I don’t get a reply from you within a week, I am telling your wife about Ayako”
“Dude, I have work, I can’t -”
I cut the call and dialed my mom, I should have known that I was entering a battlefield, literally a war. Usually, she is angry about almost everything. She picked up the phone, I was surprised that she was calm, I greeted her, she was polite too, we talked about usual things like how was our day, what was dad doing and all, I finally gathered my will to say that I was quitting football, as soon as she heard those words, I was able to feel the flames of fire she was emitting, she started yelling at me “HOW MORE STUPID CAN YOU GET!!!, HAVE YOU GOT OUT OF YOUR MIND”, this was not working, I was constantly dogging all her violent words not to say my life was at level-S threat, my ears were at their limit, my brain started erasing it’s data, any more than this would be personal harm to myself, my only choice was to retreat, that was the only option I had, I cut the phone off and left a message, “I am sorry but I have to quit football”. I switched off my phone and went to a psychiatrist for my mental therapy, after hearing those violent words I was no longer in shape for continuing to live in this cruel world.

Chapter-2: ~ my first step in Japan
After 4 days, I get a call from Fuji, he told me that he got in contact with a high school in need of a physics teacher, the salary was good and the school was well known, I was so happy and excited that I was German-suplexed myself, how do you do that? I also don’t know I was just too excited to notice how I did it, well keeping that aside I decided to move to Japan on the next day as I had to interview in three days, I submitted my resignation to the club, it was very sad, and the media was shocked and I was saying my goodbyes to the club members, I left the stadium, got into home started packing up the things, and all there was left was some furniture, I was really tired I had some rice with curry and gone to sleep.
The next day I woke up at 2 am, brushed my teeth, took a shower, and headbutted myself in the wall, I was so sleepy that I could not even see what was around me, everything was blurry, the reason could have been because I didn't get enough sleep. My flight was at 7 am, I called mom and told her that I was ready for the flight, she was still upset about it but, she also knew that nothing will be able to stop me when I decided something. After that I left for the airport, I said my goodbyes to the neighbors and my friends.
Ahh...it was a 12-hour flight, my brain was not working, my hands were freezing and I was not able to feel my legs, I walked out of the airport the weather was nice, Fuji was waiting for me outside the airport, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, he showed me the house that he arranged for me, it was a nice medium-sized room, he had also arranged the furniture for me, we talked for a bit and he left to his home, I took a shower and it was a very tiring day and didn’t bother to sleep on the bed so slept on the floor right away, it was a pretty nice floor, try sleeping on your floor today, appreciate your precious floor for a bit.
Usually, I wake up at 4 am, but as it was a pretty long flight yesterday, I ended up sleeping till 8:30 am, I slowly opened up my eyes and saw the clock on the wall, I heard a voice in my head “wait dude, didn’t you had to go to school at 8:45 am”. the panicked traveled all around my body, the tension was too much, I hustled my way out of home, after reaching half the distance from the train station I realized that I forgot to wear my underpants, how much lamer can it get, usually this happens to women, but I had to experience the embarrassing moments they went through their life, my little comrade was very uncomfortable, “I am sorry little man bear with it for today please”
I somehow managed to get on the train, it was very crowded, I didn’t even have enough room to breathe, my lungs we screaming with all the had “WE NEED AIR, PLEASE GOD LET US LIVE!!!.” While I was struggling between my life and death, I saw a pretty woman, although I could not see her face, her hair was just too smooth, I thought there was no object with the coefficient of friction zero, Da Vinci might want to correct the statement he gave, not only her hair was beyond the scale of beauty, but her neck was also too perfect, I would never talk to her face to face, my heart would stop beating instantly.
I was too attracted to her that my eyes were locked on her, I could not even look away from her, but soon I realized that people might see me as a perverted monster, so I pushed myself to look away from her, ahh... love is hard! When I almost forgot about her, someone stepped on my foot, and the first thing I did was slapped that person out of reflex, (no offense but my muscles moved on themselves) and guess who it was? Remember that pretty lady I talked about? It was her, the momentum for my hand left an imprint on her face, after all, she received a slap from a former best athlete, her tears were moving like river Nile with no speed limit, thank God that people did not notice, or else I would have been killed without any hesitation.
She turned around quietly and spoke to me with a sobbing face …
“Um... I am sorry for stepping on your feet”
“No no no..... I accidentally hurt you I am very sorry, I swear it was not intentional, my hands moved themselves, I am sorry.
“It was really painful, at least tame your hands”
I said to myself “wow someone can say that much aggressively while sobbing like it’s the end of their world”
“I am sorry, next time I will make sure they are tamed, and again sorry for that I didn’t mean it” I replied
“it’s ok if you did that unintentionally” she replied while wiping her tears
“Thank you for understanding me”
(Meanwhile, I was thanking God that she didn’t draw her slipper out)
We stopped talking to each other and it was quite awkward, I was about to have a heart attack after the realized how
The next stop was mine, surprisingly it was her stop too, and were walking in the same direction, I kept my walking speed less than her, just so I was able to see her, also I was not stalking, it was just to see if she was mentally ok, suddenly her phone rang and she walked again towards the train station, “what a weird woman” I said to myself.
Finally, I was able to reach the school, it was around 9:20 am, I was scared that they might think I was a lagger. Just hope everything goes well today, please

Chapter-3: ~ What is wrong with this high school?
I rushed inside the school as fast as I can, I thought that my impression would be bad because I was late, but somehow the teachers were happily greeting me, something smelled fishy not going to lie, I was told that the principal was not present today, so they had to start the meeting without him.
They started the interview appeared, I was going to teach 2nd and 3rd-year students. I left the room and suddenly the clerk came to me with flashing speed and said,
“Sir you are hired!! Please start teaching for the 2nd and 3rd year from tomorrow, we are looking forward to your assistance”.
Wait what, I said to myself, I know that they were in need of a physics teacher but isn't it too fast to get a reply, I didn’t expect this, I thought I would be held off for a week or so, but this is weird for them to hire me this quickly,
“Oh, this was too fast to get me hired but thanks, I am looking forward to working with you” I replied
He handed me a file of the syllabus I had to teach this semester, it was short, I had 5 times more syllabus than this when I was in high school, I was very happy that I had less work to do than I imagined to be.
I looked around the school for some time, I was clean and discipline was maintained, the students looked very motivated for their studies, I meet my co-teachers, they were humble, all the teachers worked hard, every day they had new tasks, their life was filled with thrill and new obstacles to pass, I said my goodbyes and left for home
On my way home, I bought 7 clocks just so I won't sleep like I did today, I was tired when I reached home, I ate some oats with milk, took a shower, and slept.
It was morning, I got up early this time, finished my daily activities, and left for work, the train was packed again, I guess, my body has to get used to this everyday situation. Oh, why am I not riding in a car while I am a multimillionaire? Listen, I don’t like to waste money, why waste money on a car when I could just travel with half the price.
When I was about to reach for school, I saw a fellow teacher “Chihiro Isamu” from what I observed yesterday, he was a rather an average guy, as he was always on his own, I rarely saw him with other teachers, I thought he might be a shy person, so I tried talking to him while we were walking.
“Yo! What's up Chihiro, how is your day”
“Hi there, it was pretty normal, how about you”
“I am fine, the train was too crowded, I have to still get used to it”
“Oh, that’s bad”
What the hell dude, why are you acting like I am a nuisance. Am I that bad? This guy acted like I was bothering him, but I didn’t lose hope and tried to be friendly with him.
“The weather is more clear, isn’t it?”
Dude, that is the lamest way to start a conversation, what were you thinking, is he a child?
“it’s spring so the weather has to be good”
Ahh... I hate myself, now he is probably thinking I am a stupid piece of shit
“oh, I almost forgot it’s spring, the cherry blossoms are really beautiful, it’s the first time I am seeing it, it’s amazing when seen in person”
By saying that we arrived at school, both of us went in the staff room, I took my physics material, he was on his way to his homeroom, I was assigned to 2-A classroom, wait doesn't “A” means classroom of intelligent student’s? Am I that great of a teacher? I stupidly praised myself not knowing what was about to happen.
I entered the classroom, everyone wished me good morning, I introduced myself and explain the curriculum of the year.
When I started teaching them the first chapter, I noticed something the faces of all the students were blank, I almost felt that they were just acting like they were understanding, but nothing went in their head, I stopped thinking about that and continued my teaching.
For some reason all the classes I went to teaching physics, almost all of the students were showing me blank faces, it was at this point that I began to think something was suspicious.
I went to see Chihiro, I had something to ask him.
“Hey, Chihiro, who was the physics teacher in the previous year?” I asked”
“There was none”
“What the F***, what do you mean none, how was he able to pass the exam?” (Also don’t worry I censored myself for the sake of young people's bright future)
“I don’t know, they just memorized the answers”
“Wait what how someone can pass in science by memorizing, it doesn't make any sense”
“Neither do I, after all this novel is written by a 16-year-old kid”
“What, which novel? who 16 year old?”
“You are too dense to understand the universe you live in”
“What, this isn’t the question I asked you, what are you a monk?”
His philosophy was out of my reach, I could not understand a thing he was saying, and what I could understand was that I was, this high school is messed up, I have to teach these kids 1st year and 2nd-year physics which means I have no time to relax,
WHAT HAVE I DONE TO MYSELF!!!! I screamed from the bottom of my lungs, there is no point in screaming, I am stuck and can’t get out of this mess, the only way out is to solve this.
Also, I have a present for that bastard Fuji, he will surely remember this till his death, “ok so where did I keep that knife”
Meanwhile Fuji-Kun
“Achoo... wonder who is missing me? Ahh... must be Ayako-san”
“Who is this Ayako darling?” hir wife replied
“No-nobody, just a co-worker.”
“Oh my, it must be just a co-worker, or else I might want to buy some land in the graveyard”
“Don’t worry just a co-worker, just that nothing else”.

Chapter-4: ~ I wonder who is that?
I could not get any sleep last night, because I was not able to think of a way to teach the students who were lacking a year. I understood one thing: no matter how I had to teach them 2 years' worth of syllabus in a year.
I went to school a little too early today, because I had to talk about my situation, I messaged him to come early for today, as I wanted to talk to him.
I haven’t seen the principal in person as he was not in my interview. So, this would be the first time I meet him personally.
I entered the room, a woman was standing along with the window, I assumed that she was a teacher and came into the office to look for something, I walked towards the chair and sat, the woman turned towards me, I was shocked, do you remember the women I accidentally slapped? It was her, she was surprised too, she immediately replied.
“What are you doing here? I already have forgiven you, what do you want now?”
“Hey-hey is that how you talk to a physics teacher, do you know that I am the only physics teacher here, if I left and wrote in the resignation letter that it was your fault that I left the school then you will be kicked out at once, don’t blame me after what happens”
“Wait you, are physics teacher?!”
“Yes, the physics teacher who has to now teach 2 years' worth of syllabus to the students, just because the school didn’t have a proper science teacher, I want to know what was that stupid principal was doing”
“I am sorry, I wish I had done something better”
“Why are you apologizing, the one who should be apologizing is that good for nothing principal, what was he doing when the whole school didn’t have a science teacher”
“No, I am the principal”
After hearing her words my heartbeat started rising to infinity, I felt like my blood vessels bursting up, my body was heating up, I could feel the catastrophe in my lungs. After all, I slapped and verbally abused her, what was going to happen to me was inescapable, I was ready for my fate.
“so what you wanted to talk to me about”
“What? You don’t have anything to say to me? I just verbally abused you”
“Ahh... About that, don’t worry I do feel responsible for it”
A wave of calmness went through my body, and I was relived through all my pain
“Oh, about that, how am I supposed to teach these kids, with no basics in physics, you know that it is really important for them to understand the concepts don’t you?”
“of course, I do know. But I can’t do anything, those students did not get any science teacher”
“And why is it that you don’t have a single science teacher in the entire school?”
“We didn’t want to tell you this, but as you asked me, I have to answer you”
“Please do that you have wasted an entire day of sleep because of this”
“Listen, the owner of this school “Michiko Kanzaki” is a very humble person, she wants the school fee to be as low as possible, she believes if all the students in Japan could get a quality education for an affordable price, then there will be fewer children who would suffer in their future”
“So, where does this connect to having no science teacher”
“Would you please not interrupt me while talking?”
“Ok ok, my bad. Please continue”
“There are other institutes who don’t like this, they just work for money, it seriously disgusts me. Those are all wicked monsters”
“Well, looks like we are in a messed up state”
“We sure are, if any teacher comes here for an interview, those bastards just give them ten times the money we had offered for them, the previous science teacher left without even completing a quarter of the syllabus. I tried teaching them physics but as I originally teach chemistry, I was not able to let them understand the topics. That's why we were very happy when we knew that you were an electronics degree pass out”
“But why other teachers didn’t take the bait?”
“They all are close friends of Kanzaki, also they all believe in her ideology”
“Kanzaki? Are you both friends?”
“Yes, how did you know”
“I mean you took the name of the owner too casually”
“Oh, you observed that”
“I do observe a lot”
“that’s kind of cool”
Oh my god! Did a woman actually say that? I was waiting for this moment for my entire life, after all, I was never loved by a girl.
I immediately asked her a question to move away from the topic, or else I might have fallen for her and I would have waited for her while she would be living a happy married life with her husband.
“-Also, I heard you had something like cram school, didn’t the students try to go there?”
“They forced all the cram schools to not admit our school students in”
“that’s a cruel thing to do, I feel bad for the students who study here”
“But it wouldn't matter as you are quitting to work here”
“Who said I am quitting?”
“You are not? I mean you would have to teach 2 years of the syllabus to the students”
“I have a similar story, my dear principal! I belonged to a middle-class family. I was not good at studies my dad admitted me to one of the best schools in India, the fee was too high, but my dad didn’t give up, he tried his best to pay the fees of the school, but my results never were improved, I started looking for teachers who you teach me after the school, but all of the demands were too pricey for my father to handle. But one day I saw a teacher who was helping poor students, his qualifications were quite low but as that was the only person I could afford, I went to him gladly. He gave his best in teaching us, I passes out of high school as a topper, if I was able to become someone it was all because of him”
“Hey principle, why are you all red. Are you ok”
(Hey future sultan here, the past sultan probably didn’t know that him saying “my dear principal!” to the principal would probably make her blush. What can I do I was very dense at that point in life)
“Ah... don’t worry about it, it’s nothing. That's good you got a good teacher I hope you are in touch with him”
“No, I have not talked to him as I don't know his number but I would probably talk to him to get some advice on teaching. Also, don’t worry I will be teaching here and make them pass out with good grades. Leave it to me”
“Thank you!!! I am in debt to you, please look forward to working with us”
I left the room, it was about time for homeroom to begin, I entered the classroom full of motivation and started by teaching the basics, I have a pretty long journey from here.
this is my first time writing a novel, I know my grammar might have been bad but I tried my best to write something. the novel is not finished but I tried posting it here as you all might give me a good advice to improve my writing, please let me know what i can improve thank you
