Chapter 13
13. Performance Evaluation (3)
1.
Min Arin gave rave reviews to my photo and started playing with the cat again.
It seems that they communicate by making strange sounds with their mouths, but it is a sight that a criminal like me cannot understand.
I looked at it for a while and then looked away.
The important thing right now is the ball, not the stray cat.
I wanted to tell Min Ah-rin to find the ball, but…… , He said he couldn’t spit on a smiling face, and since he was having fun, he didn’t feel like interfering.
Anyway, it wasn’t long before I was able to find the ball.
I fell into a nearby bush, but I guess I got lucky. The ball and the grass are both light green.
“Min Ah-rin, I found the ball. Let’s go.”
“Huh? Wouldn’t it be okay if I stayed a little longer…?”
“It’s not okay. What will the teacher say if I’m late?”
“Um…”
With that said, Min Ah-rin let go of the cat and trudged along.
She stopped walking and turned her head to see where the cat had been, but the cat had long since been held by someone else.
Min Ah-rin put on an even more sad expression and started walking again.
“Han Seung-gi, don’t you like cats? I’m sorry that I seemed to be the only one playing while you were working.”
“There’s a lot to be sorry about. And the cat… Well.”
Aren’t they quite loved unless they’re pretty ugly?
There are quite a few cat moms who take care of food.
If you move into the realm of pets, not stray cats, it can be said that it is just like living an emperor.
Well, since I’m always the type of person who thinks I’m the best when it comes to my life, I’m not interested in those animals who live better than me.
Well, that doesn’t mean I hate it at all.
Anyway, I’d rather have friends like that.
“I… I like small animals better, if I have to.”
“Oh, hamsters and guinea pigs? They’re cute.”
“No, um, well, that’s right.”
Aren’t they big too?
The small animal I thought of was our cute Lina.
Should that be called a micro-animal?
“I also want to raise a pet.”
“Which one?”
“A dog or a cat. I’m really confident that I’ll take good care of you.”
Min Ah-rin’s family situation seemed pretty good.
She knows that the apartment complex she saw last time is an expensive neighborhood, and her cell phone is the latest model no matter how you look at it.
In a family like that, wouldn’t it be happy even if you raised a pet or something?
Anyway, we went back to school chatting like that.
The batting practice isn’t over yet.
2.
I also watched baseball games from time to time.
Only occasionally. As a highlight video on YouTube.
Still, I can copy what I have seen to some extent.
Looking at the ball flying far away now, I am confident that I am following it pretty well.
Because it flies similarly to the ball Min Ah-rin threw.
But there seemed to be some discomfort in her eyes.
You can also see me opening and closing my mouth every time I hit the ball.
“What’s wrong? From before.”
“Huh? Ah, um, no. Nothing.”
“If you feel uncomfortable, just tell me. It’s okay.”
“Hmm. Hold on.”
Then he grabs my arm and moves it. Is it like correcting my posture?
He said it was nothing, but now he seems happy again.
“I saw it in a book the other day, you’d better play like this.”
“Great.”
“Isn’t it?”
Min Ah-rin was even more excited about that one word.
Min Ah-rin got even more excited when I hit the ball more properly with that posture.
I think he’s a very simple kid.
… ….
I meant it in a good way.
“Han Seung-gi, let’s change your posture one more time. It would be better to do it this way.”
“Yes, well, I’ll stay still, so change it.”
“Okioki.”
I felt it before, but it seems that the last book I read was quite impressive.
Last week, for some reason, I was startled by the touch of his hand, but seeing him change my posture himself.
But, this feels like an uncle playing with his nephew.
… ….
Still, well, it’s class and break time, and it feels like a kid who always sleeps has changed to a bit more enthusiastic, so it’s good to see.
“Try one more time! This is a legend.”
“Really?”
In terms of mental age, Min Ah-rin is about 9 years younger than me.
Wanting to make her more enjoyable, I hit her on the ball with all my strength.
The soft ball soared into the sky with a roar.
“Uh.”
“Uh.”
I went over the school fence.
No.
… ….
No.
3.
While I was in college, the thing I hated the most was the group assignments.
Of course, the reason was the same as the others. Free ride.
I also have a laptop.
I made extreme savings for two months last year to save up for my living expenses, and I bought a laptop with that, and the price was around 200,000 won.
It was a pretty big expense.
This laptop was bought even before the return, but the performance was terrible as well as the cheap price.
It takes a lot of patience to handle work on a laptop that can’t die, but I had to spend a lot of time to do the work for 4 people by myself.
I live a busy life day by day, but the things about going to the best university in Korea and even having a good family.
I didn’t eat sweet potatoes that much because there was a system to not give points to such people.
Even thinking about it now is annoying.
Anyway, the reason I brought up such useless talk is because of the integrated society performance evaluation.
The social performance evaluation is to prepare a short presentation with two people in one group. Is this to give you a college experience in advance?
The homeroom teacher in charge of social studies prepared a terrifying performance evaluation.
Even the randomly selected members.
… ….
“Wow, this is also destiny. Do we always meet?”
“That’s right. It’s amazing.”
My relationship with Min Ah-rin is strange.
Even if you take a seat in the classroom or the music room, you can’t even join groups in the club.
Is it really like fate?
We both left an impression that it was strange, but nothing else was said.
Min Ah-rin seems to be still sleepy today, so she lowered her head while leaving a message to wake her up when the teacher came.
I, um. I know that Minarin is a pretty nice person.
Because there is a difference between being kind and sincere.
I felt a bit uneasy.
… ….
Still.
Wouldn’t it be nice if I told you?
I suffered a lot when I was in college, but wouldn’t it be nice to believe in the Seongseon theory today?

Please.

I usually go to school by myself and leave by myself.
Last week, I went out with Min Ah-rin twice, a cleaning incident and club time, but that basically means that.
However, today I had to go home with Min Ah-rin again.
The time given until the announcement wasn’t very generous, and I also had work to do, so I just wanted to finish preparing quickly, but there wasn’t much time to talk about it with Min Ah-rin.
Because she spends a lot of time sleeping at school, we don’t talk much between us.
Anyway, despite that, the time given to me is at most 10 minutes.
Because Min Arin lived close to school.
“I think it would be better to set the theme as ‘Corporate Efforts for the Environment’.”
“Oh, that’s cool. I look fine too.”
“By the way, it’s better to just finish it quickly and rest.”
“Right. That’s right.”
“I will finish the research by tomorrow.”
“Eh.”
“Don’t do that.”
“Oh.”
“Stop it.”
“Yes.”
Still, I am generous.
If I’m not doing everything myself, I’m willing to take on a lot of things to some extent.
The conversation with Min Ah-rin continued.
She has been in charge of researching her data, and I have made a ppt.
Anyway, the two of you should do the presentation together.
It would not be complicated if we decided to divide the parts and make each one from data research to ppt.
Actually, it would be annoying to do research within today.
By the way, he said earlier that he had nothing to do.
Then it would be nice to have some work to do.
Still, Min Ah-rin, who has a kind heart, seemed to understand my concerns.
“I can do data research though. I’ll do a lot of it.”
“I’ve been tidying up a little.”
“Oki. I’m confident that I’ll do the job well again.”
Yes.
Thank you for coming out like that.
If you do a good job, presenting with someone you are close with would be a better combination.
A while ago, I overreacted because of the memory of the group assignment.
Now that I think about it, I wonder if it was a bit of an unnecessary worry.
5.
Just because work is fast doesn’t necessarily mean it’s good.
I know that preparations for the presentation are going a bit rushed this time.
… ….
No way, I didn’t know if the research had arrived because I washed my body when I got home.
Isn’t that too fast? Is this okay?
Still, I wouldn’t have sent just one or two news articles.
Haven’t you said earlier that you would find a lot of data?
I turned on my laptop and opened the file Min A-rin sent.
It’s pretty clunky, but it seems to have been properly organized.
He is very good at data research…….
Um.
Hey, why is the link like this?
Namu Wiki, Namu Wiki, YouTube, YouTube, YouTube, Namu Wiki.
… ….
-Me: Min Ah-rin.
-Me: Is there anything else besides this data research file?
-Min Arin: ㅇㅇ I put everything in there
-Min Arin: Were there too many?
-Min Ah-rin: hahahaha
-Min Arin: I put the link in too, but it was a bit strange, but it seemed like too many.
-Me: A lot of things are fine
-Min Arin: Oh, I’m glad
… ….
Because today is Friday…….
-Me: Is your house empty tomorrow?
-Min Arin: ?
-Min Arin: Well, I don’t think I will.
-Me: I’m going to your house, so let’s finish it together
-Min Arin: ??
-Min Arin: Why?
-Min Ah-rin: Did you lack data research?
-Min Arin: 30 links is not enough
-Min Ah-rin: Han Seung-gi?
-Min Arin: You don’t even know where our house is. What are you talking about?
-Min Ah-rin: 1 disappeared, but why is there no answer?
-Min Arin: (Photo)
-Min Arin: (Video)
-Min Ah-rin: You gave Han Seung-gi a gifticon.
Where do you bring that stuff as data?
