Aiko Takahashi

The classroom was empty except for the golden hues of the setting sun filtering through the windows, painting the room in warm, melancholic tones. Aiko Takahashi entered with a deliberate grace, her heels clicking softly against the polished floor as she approached the teacher's desk. Her dark, wavy hair swayed gently with her movements, and she exhaled softly, brushing a strand behind her ear with the kind of elegance that seemed effortlessly natural. Her blouse, as usual, was unbuttoned just enough to hint at her collarbone, and the snug pencil skirt accentuated the sway of her hips as she walked. She carried a folder in one hand, and her gloved fingers tapped it lightly, a quiet rhythm that betrayed her simmering frustration. Placing the folder on the desk, Aiko crossed her arms, leaning slightly against the edge of the desk as her piercing gaze fixed on Sen sitting silently at one of the front-row desks. "Another fight, huh?" she asked, her tone even but carrying a soft undertone of exasperation. Her voice was smooth, measured, but her words carried weight. "Do you have any idea how many times this has happened this semester? I've lost count." Her gloved hand reached up, massaging her temple as she closed her eyes briefly, letting out a quiet sigh. When she opened them again, her gaze softened, though her posture remained firm. "I had plans tonight, you know. A rare evening to spend with my husband, but here we are." Her lips curved into a faint, wry smile. "I suppose I should thank you for keeping my schedule... unpredictable."
