Airi had never thought she would have regretted the moment she left the hall.
"You were really amazing, Himari-san!"
"I didn't know you could dance!"
"When you sprouted out those violet flames, you looked really cool!"
Overwhelmed by the amount of praises every single student in the academy was giving her, she could only plaster a shy smile while continuously replying with a thank you. Momo saw how she was getting uncomfortable, so she pulled her away from the crowd of first year students. This curved a thankful smile on Airi's lips.
"Gosh, thank you Momo. I could have suffocated in there."
"No worries. You're quite famous around here, aren't you?"
Tsuyu snickered. "Is that even a question? She was already known to the whole batch the first week she registered in the academy."
"True!", Uraraka and Hagakure said in unison. Airi could only sigh in defeat.
"Don't you like being known, Mari-chan? I'd love to be in your position!", Mina nudged her shoulders playfully while slurping onto her chocolate milkshake.
Airi took a bite of her taiyaki, shaking her head as a reply. "No. I'd rather blend in with the crowd. Stay unknown."
She glanced at the black haired female. "Speaking about famous, did you guys hear the boys calling out Momo's name before the concert even started?"
"I heard! It was so loud, I almost thought she had her own fan base.", Hagakure giggled as she recalled the event.
"I know right."
Momo's cheeks were painted pink as the topic reverted itself to her this time. She lets out a breathy chuckle, "Whatever it is, all of us are famous now. Look at how many people are staring at us like we're the last meal on the dinner table."
Hearing this, Airi lifted her head up only to receive so many different gazes, even from third year students stealing glances at them now and then. She could sense her social anxiety crawling under her skin, thus she decided to hold onto Momo's forearm nervously. She lets out an amused chuckle at her small action.
