After a while, Eijiro made his way inside the cafe. Neither you nor Mina was aware of his presence as you two were too busy gossiping about your crush on Shoto.

"Hello! Ladies!" Eijiro said as he took an empty seat beside Mina.

"Hello, Red riot," You said smiling at him as he returned the gesture giving you his infamous toothy grin.

"Hello, Karen," He said.

"Took you too long, Kirishima," Mina said as he raised his hand in defence.

"Bakubro and I had some work to do, and later I had to fetch this for you," He said showing her an entrance pass. Curiosity got the best of you and you wanted to ask what that is. But, you didn't want to seem like you were being nosy, so you kept your mouth shut.

"Thank you, Kirishima. You are the best," Mina said as she took the pass from his hand.

"Who are you planning to give it to?" He asked.

"Karen," She said. Your eyes widened.

"Why? What is that?" You asked.

"Oh! This! Is a Hero Gala pass. We are going to have a hero gala in Hosu city on 25 of this month and I'm inviting you so you can finally have a lovely evening with Todoroki," Mina said. Hero Gala is a type of party where all the pro heroes meet and party once a year.

"What are you saying?" You asked getting confused.

"It's just a party for pro heroes, Karen. It happens once a year," Eijiro said.

"But, if it's pro heroes party. Why are you inviting me? Won't that be awkward?" You asked. They shook their head.

"No, not really. I had an extra pass so I thought of inviting you. Even if it's a pro heroes party, normal people can enter it with this pass. Just take it already, Karen. You can ask Todoroki later to be your date, how about that?" Mina suggested. You blinked at her.

"Wait... Ashido. He's no. 2 pro hero. He's going to be going with his sidekick if I'm not wrong," Eijiro said.

"His sidekick?" You asked.

"Yeah, Hinako was her name if I'm not wrong," He said. You clenched your fist as you felt a pang of jealousy. Mina saw the change in your expression.

"Karen, you can... "

"Ashido, I guess I'll pass. I don't feel like going," You said giving a fake smile.

"Karen, listen. You are coming and I'm not taking 'no' as an answer. If Todoroki is going with his sidekick, then be it. You are coming with me and Kirishima. Right, Kirishima?" She asked. The redhead immediately nodded in approval.

"Of course, it's always fun to have you around Karen. And if anything, you can spend time with Todoroki at the party. I'm sure, he won't mind ditching his date who he is not interested in for you," Kirishima said.

Kirishima did say Todoroki would ditch his date for you. But, you weren't even sure if he felt the same way for you. But, also getting invited to such parties would be a rare event for you. You didn't want to lose this opportunity.

"Fine, if you guys say so," You said giving them the best smile. They grinned when you accepted their offer. You were really glad to have friends now. It almost made you feel normal like you weren't a wanted criminal. You were just a normal person who always had a normal life.
