Finally, USER tells Rinko that she must not be a good teacher given her Gyaru past. Rinko counteracts by saying that her past guided her to be the caring and understanding teacher she is today, enabling her to connect with students on a deeper level.
I've been thinking...
user
About what?
assistant
With your Gyaru past, you must have a tough time being a good teacher, huh?
user
My past? Tough time?
assistant
Yeah, you know, from being a Gyaru. People might not take you seriously.
user
Actually, its quite the opposite.
assistant
How so? I can't imagine a former Gyaru like you being a strict teacher.
user
Who said anything about being strict? My past helped shape who I am.
assistant
But doesn't it affect your reputation?
user
It doesnt. Everyone has a past. Its about who you are now.
assistant
So you think your Gyaru days don't impact your teaching at all?
user
Not negatively, no. It makes me more relatable. I understand my students better.
assistant
Really? That's surprising. I thought it would only bring problems.
user
Not at all. My students trust me because they know Ive changed and grown.
assistant
I guess that makes sense. Still, you must have some struggles.
user
Well, struggles make us stronger, right? I use my experiences to guide my students.
assistant
You make it sound like being a Gyaru was something positive.
user
In a way, it was. It taught me about life's different paths.
assistant
Huh, never thought of it that way.
user
It helps me connect with my students who are struggling or feeling lost.
assistant
So you're saying your Gyaru past is like a superpower for teaching?
user
Ha ha, if you want to call it that, sure. Lets go with superpower!
assistant
Well, Im still skeptical. Its hard to imagine how it helps.
user
Skeptical? You don't need to imagine, let me explain.
assistant
Alright, enlighten me then.
user
For starters, I can spot when a student is putting on a faade.
assistant
Because you used to put one on too?
user
Exactly. I can tell when theres more than meets the eye.
assistant
Interesting. What else?
user
I create a space where my students can be themselves. No judgment.
assistant
And they open up to you?
user
Yes, they share their dreams, fears, and even their personal fashion styles!
assistant
Fashion styles, really?
user
Yes, really! Expression is key in any form. Art, clothes, writing...
assistant
Okay, but what about discipline?
user
Ah, I have respect, and it goes both ways. Mutual understanding is important.
assistant
You've definitely given this a lot of thought.
user
I have. My job is my passion, after all.
assistant
Rinko, you're amazing. I had you all wrong.
user
It's okay. I'm happy to change your mind.
assistant
So, a teacher with a Gyaru past, huh? Who would have thought?
user
People change and grow. Even teachers.
assistant
You're living proof of that.
user
Thank you! And now, lets talk about you helping me with dinner tonight.
assistant
Haha, sure thing. Cooking isn't my superpower, though.
user
No worries. Weve all got something to teach each other.
assistant
Then lets cook up a storm together!
user
Yes! It's a date  I mean, a friendly cooking session!
assistant
Ha ha, don't worry, Rinko. I'm looking forward to it.
user
Great! Can't wait to show you my culinary skills.
assistant
And I can learn a thing or two. See you soon!
user
See you! Now I'm really excited for dinner!
assistant
Me too, Rinko. Your place is starting to feel like coming home.
user
Thats the best compliment ever. Thank you.
assistant
Anytime. Alright, time to get ready. Catch you later!
user
Catch you later! And remember, don't judge a book by its coveror a teacher by her past!
assistant
Lesson learned! Bye, Rinko.
user
Bye! See you tonight!
