The Results From When I Time Leaped To My Second Year Of High School And Confessed To The Teacher I Liked At The Time Chapter 74

Deciding Match! Public Pool

“Buuheeyaaaa…”

“Yeah, that’s good, you’re doing well . ”

“Fuuhii, fuuiii…”

“You’re starting to get better, Haruksan . ”

“Fuuuun, hiiin…”

Hiiragi-chan was moving her legs with all her might, causing water to splash upwards . I was in the pool, pulling her along by the hand, while slowly backing up .

“Sei-ji-kun, my legs can’t hold up…”

“Don’t raise your head . Properly keep it down . Only raise your head to breath . ”

“I don’t waaaant toooo… A strict Seiji-kun is no good…”

There was a reason for me to be teaching Hiiragi-chan swimming in such a Spartan way .

Three days earlier .

“Seiji-kun, let’s go to the beach next time, the beach!”

“That’s fine, but Haruksan, you can’t swim, right?”

“It’s fine if I can’t swim . As long as I have a floating ring and goggles, I’ll be able to manage . ”

“That’s what you say, but last time at the pool you were drowning after getting swallowed by a wave . ”

“T-that was an accident…”

“Not knowing how to swim will lead to an accident, so if you want to go, only go after you learn how to swim, okay?”

So I said to Hiiragi-chan who had changed into her dazzling bikini outfit, and was already equipped with her floating ring .

“I’m just going to be floating around so it’s fine!”

“Don’t underestimate the ocean!”

As such, I decided to teach her how to swim and that’s the reason why the two of us here at the public pool today .

We’re wearing caps and goggles, so there shouldn’t be anyone that would recognize us .

After my recollection had ended, I realized that I couldn’t hear the sound of splas.h.i.+ng water . Hiiragi-chan, who was wearing a race use swimsuit was just floating there .

“Heeeeey, are you okay!?”

I hurriedly got the G.o.ddess out and onto the poolside . While breathing deeply, Hiiragi-chan took off her goggles and spoke .

“As expected, it’s impossible… Isn’t it fine if I can’t swim…?”

Lying down, she got herself rounded and into a fetal position .

“I want to go… I want to hold hands while walking on the sandy beach dyed by the sunset…I want to play around in the ocean water . ”

Her sense of location is perfect . If it’s really just that, then it’s fine . I won’t refuse to go to the beach . However, it’s certainly better to know how to swim to prevent accidents . That’s why, I decided that a bit of strict special training was necessary with the time that we had over summer break .

“Only after you learn to swim . If not, I’m not going . If my leg were to get a cramp and I were to start drowning, what would you do, Haruksan?”

“That’s obvious!”

The sight of her panicking and asking her surroundings for help comes to mind .

“I’ll die with you!”

“Don’t die . Live . ”

Haah, I sighed .

“If Haruksan learns how to swim, then you can actually save me, you know?”

The race use swim suit really looked good Hiiragi-chan quite well . However, since she had curves here and there, it looked a bit tight . The area around her chest and her b.u.t.t looked particularly stiff .

“Uuuuu…”

“Let’s take a short break…”

Being too persistent and having her lose motivation wouldn’t be good . Deciding that, I went over to the vending machine and bought a sports drink before coming back .

“Onee-san, can you not swim?”

“Ahaha… yeah, that’s right . ”

Hiiragi-chan who was sitting on the bench, was surrounding from some kids (around fifth grade) that seemed to be taking swimming cla.s.ses .

“The person that was with you was probably teaching you badly . ”

“Ahaha… I don’t know about that . ”

“Onee-san, I’ll teach you!”

“Thank you . ”

“Hey, you kids . Do you need something from my girlfriend?”

“Eeeh!? This person, you’re this old man’s girlfriend?”

O-old man…!? But I’m supposed to be in my second year of high school…

“That’s gotta be a lie!”

“If that’s really the case, then Onee-san is getting tricked by him!”

Ahaha, Hiiragi-chan laughed .

“I’m not being tricked . ”

“Y-you guys… I’m in my second year of high school, not an old man at all . Moreover, I haven’t tricked her at all . ”

“““You’re lying!”””

“I’m telling you it’s not a lie!”

“Stop getting so serious with children, you old man . ”

“Unsightly!”

“Onee-san, if you’re really dating this old man, then you should break up with him . ”

Saying whatever you guys want…!

Still , calm down, Sanada Seiji . They’re only children . A middle-aged man getting seriously mad at them isn’t mature at all .

“That old man is bad at teaching, so we’ll teach you . ”

“Stay out of this kids . Quickly get home and have Mama bake you a pie or something . ”

“You probably have some secret intentions for teaching this Onee-san, right?”

“If you can swim better than us, then I guess it’s fine?”

“A compet.i.tion, a compet.i.tion!”

——I’ll destroy you guys…!

“Just how I want it, come and get it!”

“Seiji-kun, do your best!”

“Yeah!”

“““…”””

The kids had an interesting expression .

“Hmmmm~? Did you guys think that maybe you guys would be the ones who would be encouraged?”

I tried my best to agitate them a bit .

The three people took their kickboards and started to attack me .

“Hey, using weapons is unfair—”

“““Shut up, you old man!”””

“Who’s an old man! Hey! Fine then… bring it on!”

“Then, how about a 3 x 100 meter relay . ”

They were now selfishly deciding the rules .

That means, I’m going to swim 300 meters by myself…? Okay, fine . Justice overcoming unfair disadvantages is cool after all .

The first kid and I both take our positions .

“Don’t complain if I take your self-proclaimed girlfriend, old man . ”

“Haah? You won’t take her though? Rather, it’s not self-proclaimed . ”

“—— Ready, go!”

Pachin, Hiiragi-chan clapped her hands behind us .

At that moment, we jumped . I looked out of the corners of my eyes . His dive was smooth and the form was clean . However, it’s not good enough to matter! I don’t care if it’s not mature, I’ll crush it with all my strength . I instantly widen the gap, and did my turn at 100 meters .

“Seiji-kun, you’re so fast! Like a penguin!”

Kyah, kyah, I heard Hiiragi-chan cheering with a shrill voice from the poolside .

Isn’t there another metaphor you could have picked? Thinking that, I continued to advance through the water .

… Ah . This is bad . I tried too hard at the start . As lactic acid began to build up, my arms and legs became heavier .

When I did my turn at 200 meters, “Just a little bit more! We can catch him!” I heard someone say that .

When I looked back for a moment, I could see that my lead had been cut in half .

I’m going to bet my whole existence on crus.h.i.+ng these kids…! Turning my negative emotions into energy, I raise my speed again .

After finis.h.i.+ng my 300 meters, I raise my head and saw that the difference was about 10 meters until the goal .

“Seiji-kun, you’re really fast!”

“W-well… yeah…”

While breathing hard, I pull myself onto the poolside .

“Good work ♪”

Hiiragi-chan came over while holding a towel like a manager .

“Old man, you’re really fast . ”

“Right? Rather, stop calling me an old man . ”

“Can’t you hold back a bit, old man . ”

“I’m telling you, stop calling me that . ”

“Going hard on a few kids as your opponent . ”

“You guys were fast too, though?”

Nis.h.i.+s.h.i.+, laughing like that, the kids went, “See yeah, Onii-san,” and left the pool .

“Aaaah, I’m zo dired…”

Sitting down next to me, a smile came up on Hiiragi-chan’s face .

“Fufufu . That looked really fun, you know? Seiji-kun, you might be the type that children like . ”

“That isn’t true . ”

“Sometimes, I think about our future . If we had kids, Seiji-kun would probably make a good dad . ”

“I wonder about that one . ”

“Let’s go back too?”

Hiiragi-chan stood up and walked towards the exit .

“Where are you going? You’re training hasn’t ended, you know?”

“Giku . ”

What are you doing, trying to make a good mood and then leaving .

“N-nooooooo! I hate a strict Seiji-kun!”

“Yes yes, I’ll be nice and gentle, okay?”

Pulling along the struggling Hiiragi-chan, we did another two hours of training after that . Thanks to my guidance, and Hiiragi-chan’s efforts, she learned how to doggy paddle .
