At the library, Futaba has found the story she tried to show Sensei, and has double-checked it to make sure there aren't any more "mix-ups". She is nervous about what he will think of it. Sensei finds it to be a "fairly typical story" about a girl who overcomes issues of self-perception and starts dating someone. For the most part, Sensei is fairly impressed, especially since given that it's a first attempt. Futaba asks what he thought of the main character, who strongly resembles Futaba herself. Sensei says that the character is "interesting", and that he'd like to learn more about her.
