I'm kinda dumb

[Noboru Hiroto]

Noboru sighed and wondered down the hallway, keeping mostly to himself. He didn't have time to socialise, he had to see Professor Kesslar for some tutoring, since he was so horrifyingly hopeless, he needed some serious help if he was going to do anything with his life. He sighed deeply and turned a corner, Koboshi and him had been fighting for awhile, rocky relationships sucked, he didn't know what to do to make her happy anymore, it was so difficult to please her these days, he had considered packing it all in and giving up, but every time he thought of doing that, his eyes grew glassy and he couldn't do it, it had to be a sign that she was the one, but that did,t make their relationship perfect, not at all.

Another corner. Closer to the Professor he needed to see. He hoped she wasn't busy or something, that would be kinda awkward, but all he could do was cross his fingers and hope that once he reached her office, she'd be alone and haooy to help. But surely she would be happy to help him, she was a professor, it was their jjob to help this students, even if they were as hopeless as Noboru was. He reached her door and took a deep breath, knocked and then decided that he'd announce himself, he wasn't sure if she knew who he was. ''Excuse me Professor Kesslar? I'm Noboru Hiroto and I need to ask you something.'' He explained, holding back the urge to say that he needed help because he was dumb, that wouldn't be a good first impression.

 

[Elodie Kesslar]

Professor Kesslar sitting peacefully in her office, she didn't have class today and was enjoying the time off. She was leaning back in her chair, writing a rather lengthy letter to her younger half-sister Jaymie, telling her about the joy she was having teaching her students. She had only been teaching at the school for a short while but she already felt at home. The school, her fellow teachers and the students she had met were all fantastic and she wanted to stay for as long as she could. Her quill quickly moved down the parchment writing her excited words, trying to keep it legible to the eight year old's eyes.

A knock on the door paused her quill and she looked up, "Come in!" she called politely and she set her quill down. Straightening up she smiled warmly at Noboru when he entered her office, "Noboru, come in take a seat." she said indicating to the comfortable seat that was postitioned directly in front of her desk. The professor remembered Noboru's face from her seventh year Charms class but they had never actually spoken, "Ask away." she said lacing her fingers together on her lap, eager for Noboru to tell her what was bothering him, she wanted to help.​

Noboru took a deep breath and walked into the office quietly, sitting down in a comfortable chair in front of her desk. He intertwined his fingers nervously, it was difficult for him to just come out and say that he was having problems in classes, or in life in general. He sighed slightrly and chewed at his bottom lip, looking around the room, as if trying to find words to explain his problem. "Well..." He began, finding them when he gladed out a window. "You see... I have missed a lot of classes over the years..." He explained. Some things were because of family, some because of friends and some because of his lack of interest, but he couldn't dwell on that, he had to explain to the young Professor what was wrong with him, several seconds had passed. "I need help with Charms, if I am ever going to get good grades, or atleast pass Charms, I think I'll need some tutoring." He finsihed, sighed once again as he finally got the words out.

 

[Elodie Kesslar]

Elodie sensed Noboru's discomfort and smiled warmly before pulling a tin of chocolate biscuits that Jaymie had sent her for her birthday out of the desk drawer and offered them to the boy in front of her, "Here." Elodie listened patiently to Noboru nodding understandably, "I don't believe that you are quite that bad." she said reassuring him that he would pass. The boy was genuinely worried about his grades and there was no way that Elodie could refuse to help him, "But I would be happy to help you out. Is there anything in particular you want me to help you with or just everything in general?" she asked taking a biscuit for herself and taking a bite. If it was everything she had a long road ahead of her, but she was going to help the best she could, after all it was her job, a job she loved.​
