My Pawfect Rebirth

73: Softy

"Thanks for helping me on getting a new phone, Aster." Izumi said. 

"No problem, but uh- why did you need my help? I'm sure you've bought a phone before." 

"Well... this is different because... it's Kacchan's new phone." Aster blinked a few times and understood the situation. 

"Ah- I almost forgot Katsuki still doesn't have a phone, so you bought him one just so you can communicate with him?" 

"Mn. I hope he likes it, I've never bought stuff for Kacchan before, so this is a first for me." Izumi said. 

"Well now that you two have gotten a lot closer, I'm sure you'll be doing that for a while too. Anyway, I gotta get going, take care." 

"Oh- bye Aster, and thanks for the help!" 

"No problem, just make sure to come back for the rest of the meeting tomorrow." Aster said, waving to the greenette.

'That meeting was a lot more unexpecting than I thought, but I just hope that finding this snake spirit won't be a problem in the end.' 

"Izumi?" 

Izumi turned around and was surprised to see Mitsuki. 

"Ah- M-Mrs. Bakugo! H-How nice to see you!" Izumi said. 

"It's a surprise to see you, especially without my son tailing you around. He acts more like a loyal puppy than a boy sometimes." Mitsuki said. 

'You have no idea...' Izumi thought. 

"S-So did you have anything planned for your day?" 

"Oh yes, I was going to head over to my husband's work and give his boss a piece of my mind. He still hasn't come home from work yet." 

'Crap, what should I tell her? I can't just tell her Mr. Bakugo got poisoned by a snake spirit, she would think that sounds crazy! Wait-' 

"Ah- a-actually, me and Kacchan saw him last night." 

"Hm? You did, what happened to him then?" 

"U-Umm... well..."

"He got jumped on?!?!" Izumi started flailing her arms around to calm Mitsuki down. 

"P-Please don't yell, Mrs. Bakugo, people will hear us!" Izumi said, trying to stay calm. 

"How did this happen, is my husband okay?" 

"H-He's fine, now, but when we found him... someone pointed a knife at his neck. He lost a bit of blood, but he's okay now. Unfortunately, in the time it took us to get him to the hospital, he became pretty anemic and has to rest in the hospital for a while." Izumi said. 

"Oh my goodness, no wonder I didn't hear a word from him last night. Do you know which hospital it is?" 

"O-Oh yes, it's the Pumilum Hospital, it's not too far from here." Izumi said. 

Mitsuki grabbed the greenette's hand and looked directly into her eyes. 

"Would you please come with me, I'm not sure I'll be okay going by myself." Mitsuki asked. 

"Ah- of course, Mrs. Bakugo."
