Thankfully, upon seeing that the activity was a success, Eguchi-sensei was extremely delighted.
Perhaps, to show someone that she’s that satisfied with how things turned out, she asked me to stay behind for a while, letting me watch her act differently than how she always portrayed herself towards the other students.
