Freya nodded quickly, and bowed awkwardly to the teacher. "I'm Freya Erikson... thank you for being willing to speak to me in English.... I promise I'll improve my Japanese as quickly as I can."

"Take your time." She smiled, pointing to the desk in front of her own. "You will sit here in case you need help at all during the lesson."

Freya nodded quickly. "Thank you so much, sensei..! I promise I'll do my best!"

She smiled cheerfully as the other students poured in. "I trust that you will. I picked up some of the books we've been studying for you." She handed her a stack of three classic Japanese texts. "You will have to catch up on your own time, but be sure to pay attention to the lessons regardless."

She nodded quickly and looked down at the books, then smiled to the teacher again. "Thank you very much. I'll do my best to catch up as quickly as possible!"

She nodded as the bell rang, standing up and beginning to teach the class.

Freya quickly sat, taking notes as best she could. Though she was overwhelmed by the pace of the class, she still felt like she at least got something out of it by the time the bell rang to signal the end of the period.

Mrs. Michinaga smiled to Freya reassuringly as the bell rang. "Have a good day, Erikson-San."

She smiled back to her and nodded quickly, replying, "Thank you, and you, too, Michinaga-sensei..!"

The woman gave her another quick smile before sitting at her desk.
Meanwhile, Harima-Sensei was looking through a stack of graded papers when she came in. He looked up to her and nodded as he made eye contact. "Ah, Erikson. I'm glad you managed to find my class so easily."

Freya nodded quickly and smiled to Harima-sensei. "Thank you, sensei. I'm looking forward to your class... is there assigned seating..?"

"Actually, yes. I have you seated in the only remaining empty seat in the back row, right corner." He chuckled. "It worked out pretty well too since you're next to one of the best English speaking students in this-"
"Sorry I didn't get here sooner, sensei!" She was a fairly beautiful student, being taller and thinner than most of the other girls. She had long dark brunette hair and happy looking black eyes. She smiled nervously as she straightened her uniform up. "What is it that you needed to talk to me about?"
Kyosuke grinned. "Speak of the devil..."

Freya nervously turned to look at the other girl, smiling anxiously. This was the student he was talking about, right..? So maybe... maybe they could be friends? She remained quiet as she looked between the girl and Harima-sensei.

"Erikson, this is Takano Akira. She's going to help you along in the class when I am unavailable."
The girl, Akira, turned to looked at Freya, smiling. "It's a pleasure to meet you. I will help in any way that I can." She bowed politely.

Freya nodded quickly, then bowed to Akira in response. "I'm Freya... it's a pleasure to meet you as well. Thank you for being willing to help me..."

"I really don't mind. It must be hard moving and getting thrown into a different education system." She went over to her desk, gesturing to the one beside her own. "This is yours."

Freya followed her and quickly sat down. "Thank you, Takano-san... I must admit, I was pretty overwhelmed in my last class..."

"It's easy to get overwhelmed here, but lucky for you, Harima-Sensei is very slow and thorough in his teachings. He makes sure you fully grasp the material."

"Oh, that's a relief.." she sighed softly. "If every teacher spoke as quickly as Michinaga-sensei, I'd probably die."

Akira giggled softly. "She's known to be a fast talker. Sorry you got stuck with her, but it's probably because she speaks English well too."
|
|
|
Post by Aurelia on Apr 15, 2018 9:38:10 GMT -5
Freya smiled and nodded. "Yeah... but the English thing means more to me than the fast talking, honestly. At least I can go ask clarifying questions, right?"

Akira nods happily as the rang. "I'm sure you'll do great~"

She smiled gently to Akira, then got ready to take notes as class started.

Akira began to take notes as well, helping Freya along whenever she needed it.

Before she knew it, class was over, and Freya sighed softly.

Akira looked over to her with a gentle smile. "So what class do you have next? Maybe I could walk you there."

She looked down at her schedule and frowned for a moment. "I think it's history...? Wait, no, that was this class... um..."

Post by HerWhisperIsTheLucifer on Apr 15, 2018 16:46:51 GMT -5
Akira giggled, leaning over to look at her schedule. "That's your math class. I can walk you there since my class is right next door to it."

Post by Aurelia on Apr 15, 2018 16:50:12 GMT -5
She nodded sheepishly. "O-oh, okay... this is one of the teachers who doesn't speak English... at least I like math."
|
|
|
Post by HerWhisperIsTheLucifer on Apr 15, 2018 16:54:13 GMT -5
She nodded. "Luckily with math it's mostly numbers and not kanji." She grinned as she started to walk with her.
