Sakura Mochi (JJK x Demon Slayer)

chapter 10

The next day

Yuji, Megumi, Nobara, Maki, Inumaki and Yuta were in one of the training fields. It was still the early hours of the morning when they finished their morning training

All the teachers ( Gojo, Geto, Nanami, Haibara and Toji) were there to supervise them. And since the kids were on a break, so were they

While all of the students sat and took some rest, they gossiped about a lot of things like they usually did in their free time. They usually talk about a lot of things

But today, they had a particular topic to talk about the most

"Itadori?"

Nobara called, gaining the attention of our dear cinnamon roll

"Your aunt, I mean the woman that came yesterday. Did you really never know about her existence?"

Nabara asked, making Yuji smile and shake his head

"No... Really, I was raised by my grandpa. He never mentioned her. He always told me my dad was an only child. Nothing more than that "

He explained, staring at a distance with a smile

He was so incredibly happy and excited to get to know about his aunt

By her last meeting, he could tell she is a very kind woman. She has the most purist smile he'd ever seen on anyone. And he could tell she genuinely cared about him

"Don't you think it's a bit odd? Why didn't your grandpa ever tell you about any of this?"

Maki asked curiously

Yuji just hummed

"I know. It's crazy how I never knew about her"

He said, looking a little distant

The teachers kept listening to their conversation

They also found it a bit weird how yuji didn't know anything about Kanroji till now. But they knew her. It didn't make any sense for her to try to take in Yuji without a reason

"But I know she's telling the truth. I don't know why my grandpa didn't tell me about her but there must be a valid reason. Just like she had a reason to get away from me"

Yuji explained. he too was thinking the same thing nonstop since she left

"How are you so sure she's telling the truth, Itadori-kun?"

Yuta's question made Yuji snort a little

"Why would she lie? Give me a valid reason. It's not like I have something special to attract her attention. She's an important person, what could she possibly want from me?"

He said

This made everyone shut down. That was true. If that women had the power to make the higher ups and elders to submit to her, then she was someone really influential. The power she held is known to all

"And besides, the papers and photos she provided me yesterday were all legit. I could tell. She saved my life by canceling my exicution. And she even joined jujutsu high school as a teacher just to be close to me. What more evidence do I need?"

He asked matter of factly

The students got a little embarrassed thinking about these. It was pretty obvious that she won't do so much for a stranger

"Anyhow, are you excited to be with her, Yuji?"

Panda asked, patting his head with his squishy paws
