Chapter 5 (1/2)
To be honest, I hadn't told Mafuyu soaps around the door The soundproofing in the classroom wasn't perfect, so sound still leaked out of the roouitar solo could be heard frohout the school a few days later
”Which piece? Is it that <ちゃらり ~鼻から牛乳~=””>?” [TLNote: It is roughly translated as 'Cyarari~Spitting Milk fro can be seen via the link Thanks to Alice for pointing the vid out, cause I had no freaking idea what it was]
”I've heard that before too I'll get dizzy if I listen to it for too long”
So it's actually Bach's <toccata and=”” fugue=”” in=”” d=”” minor,=”” bwv=”” 565=””> That lass really likes Bach, huh? It wasn't time for homerooirls'the pieces Mafuyu played
”She played <farewell> yesterday too It was so~ very fast Originally I couldn't figure out what piece it was” [TLNote: I guess the piece is more widely known as <tristessel>, but <farewell>'s the lesser-known nalish community at least) that is used in the novel To quote wiki: 'Neither ”Tristesse'” (sadness) nor ”Farewell” are naiven by Chopin']
”Ah, so that's <farewell>?”
I had heard the guitar version of <farewell> as well Chopin had initially cohly four times the speed of current day interpretations—so in a certain sense, Mafuyu's performance was actually the correct version I wanted to say that, but everyone would definitely call me a perverted critic or a stalker, so I chose to reenes fro weird in my body? Stop that immediately!
Our teacher opened the door before the school bell finished chi, and Mafuyu followed behind him The whole class suddenly sank into silence Everyone briefly exchanged looks with each other before returning to their own seats as though nothing had happened The only one unaware of the situation was the very person herself Even so, it see on As she walked to her seat, she looked at everyone with a puzzled glance
”Wanna go listen today after school?”
”Then I'll have a listen before my club activities start—”
I heard people whispering that and noticed a few guys sneaking glances at Mafuyu while grinning broadly It had been less than a week since Mafuyu's transfer, but the nu a conversation with her had nearly dropped to zero—she was probably being treated like a rare creature by everyone
However, that had become quite a problem for me as well That place was actually my relaxation room, and yet, it was occupied by someone else Seems like I'll have to snatch the classroom back from Mafuyu's hands
I came up with a really despicable plan to lock myself in the classroom to shut Mafuyu out When math—which was the sixth period of the day—was over, I i and rushed out of the classroooodbye to the teacher
However, I was dumbfounded when I arrived at the oldThere was already a padlock hanging on the door of the classroom damn her, how dare she do that to my (self claimed) room!
While staring at the lock before me, I remembered the paper clip and the flat-blade screwdriver stored inDon't underesti sound syste, thin wire is all I need to settle a lock of such low caliber No, that'd be considered a cria to pick the lock open anyway However, if I do it quickly, it'd probably take less than a ?”
A voice suddenly caht As I turned my head—
It was actually Mafuyu She was totally furious, and heron her head
”You criht? Please do not coain”
That is indeed the case, but on what grounds do you have the right to scold me?
”Why are you always following me?”
Howis a criht fall into trouble should she actually file a coainst ht now
”No, look I've always used this classroom, and that amplifier was modified by me too”
I explained while trying my hardest to hold myself back
”You were just using it without permission!”
”But Miss Mikoujiave me permission to use the classroom too”
”This is a room for practice, not a place for you to laze around and waste your ti to CDs!”
Mafuyu pushed me aside She opened the lock, walked into the classrooht for a few seconds Then, without a second thought, I barged into the roo to tear it down
”Stop treatinghis ti time till a person dies”
”Then why don't you just die already?”
Did she just say so extremely cruel to me?
”Can't If I die, my mother and little sister would be very sad” I allowed myself to talk nonsense ”I already know the only family you have is that useless father of yours” What's with that retort? damn, has this lass read Tetsurou's articles already? That stupid dad always mentions me in those articles of his For exaio is as slow as my son when he makes potato salad” However—
”I do admit he's useless, and you're free to see him as an idiot if you'd like However, the person ill be troubled by all these coht now—mainly to me!”
”The very existence of critics is troublesome They alrite rubbish”
Oi oi, what's with this? Mafuyu's expressions suddenly turned soleuing with her in a place like this!? Upon considering that, my mind quickly cooled down
”They are not the ones playing the pieces All they do is listen frivolously, then talk nonsense, like what you are doing right now”
”Ur nonsense is actually a fault ofdeeper into it, I realized it would be a really feeble retort Therefore, I could only shut my mouth
” It's just guitar I can play that too!”
Those words came out of h
As a guy who listens to all sorts of rock, I used to play the guitar as well; though, that was so the summer of uitar in the storeroom of my house back then, and used it to fervently practice the prelude to <stairway to=”” heaven=””>
However, I no longer touched it anymore
Mafuyu narrowed her eyes, and her gaze beca, ”I bet that's just you sprouting nonsense anyway”
