Chapter 54-4
Ryosaku-kun, please listen carefully.
Minegishi-san...Currently, she is not going to school and is staying at home all the time.
I checked with the principal of the school over the phone, so I'm sure.
It seems like she's been bullied a lot since the day she transferred to another school.
Maybe it's because she always looked depressed and gloomy.
Instead of making good friends, Mieko-san seems to have been abandoned by her homeroom teacher, calling her a "dark, unpleasant, and unpleasant child!"
When I heard that, I wanted to go to that school right now and slap her teacher on the cheek with my palm in front of everyone. But...as an educator, I couldn't allow that.
...I was so frustrated that I couldn't do anything for her.
Right now, Minegishi-san is in the process of transferring to a new school.
Ryosaku-kun, when you stand in the field of education... you see many things.
At my alma mater, A Elementary School, and at K Elementary School, where Ryosaku-kun is now, almost everyone got along well and the school atmosphere was very nice.
However, at the school in the city where I was an "intern," there were many elementary school students who behaved like adult delinquents, and the school culture itself was stagnant. There were many elementary school teachers who were unqualified.
As someone who has seen many such "ugly worlds," I was finally able to meet Ryosaku-kun, Minegishi-san, all the bright second graders, and the sincere Principal Yano of K Elementary School. I was very happy.
Ryosaku-kun...As an educator, for the first time, I am breaking a "promise" with the parents of my students.
As a teacher, it's okay to lose trust.
Ryosaku-kun has Minegishi-san...and Minegishi-san has Ryosaku-kun...after all, they absolutely need each other.
If I had made the decision sooner, Minegishi-san might not have stopped attending school...and she might not have been bullied.
Ryosaku-kun, please go and meet Minegishi-san now!
Minegishi-san's address is in Saitama Prefecture..."
Here the letters of the letter ended.
No...after the last letter, "Saitama Prefecture"...the "curve" of a fountain pen pierced straight down the page like a parabola.
Teacher Suzuki must have mustered up the last of her energy to try to reunite Ryosaku and Mieko.
It was truly her "financial writing'' and also a "final message "to Ryosaku.
Ryosaku senses the great love of Teacher Suzuki, who passed away quietly, leaving behind the last "flickering flame of life" for himself and Mieko... without the second graders noticing. , cried softly.
