The Veil

Chapter # 15

(Name) silently strolled in the direction of the secluded grounds of Gojo household. Where she has promised to train Satoru's pupil because he won't leave her be until she has agreed to this arrangement. She dreaded the effect he had on her. He has made her soft. (Name) (Last name), soft? The girl who has used the reverse curse technique at the age of five, and withstand every assassination from young age after she was born, was made soft by a six feet man-child.

She cursed herself, she was supposed to be on a vacation, but here she was formulating a training plan for the young boy. From what Gojo has told her the boy was strong but didn't know how to imply said strength to work.

"Hello! (Name) Sensei." The hyped boy waved eagerly.

She only saw Yuji but Gojo was nowhere in sight.

"Gojo Sensei has already left," the boy scratched his head.

"Alright, Yuji." She cleared her throat, "Punch me."

"What..."

"I'm pretty sure I said it in Japanese, punch me." She stepped forward.

"No, I can not! Gojo Sensei will kill me if he figures I punched his wife!?" He took a few steps shaking his head.

A mouth materialized on his left cheek, "punch the bitch, brat. She is asking for it."

The boy yelped, slapping a hand over the mouth, "I am so sorry! It wasn't me I swear!" The boy started blubbering nonsense.

"Funny, last time I remember a certain curse was beaten up by me."

The mouth appeared on his right cheek, "Just so you wait once I gain my full strength, I'll annihilate you." Yuji had to whack his other cheek as well.

"Tch, keep dreaming." (Name) smirked, knowing well that the curse was watching her.

"Let's start the training shall we?"

(----------------------------)

Yuji was strong, even without any help from the curse residing inside him.

(Name)'s task has been to polish his inner strength and make him agile.

But she was no professional teacher, it will take time for her to teach him all she knew.
He was also a very enthusiastic student, a little slow but he has a passion to learn.

"(Name) Sensei, when did you and Gojo Sensei got married?"

"We are not married," she handed him some chocolate milk she has bought after a tiresome session of training.

His mouth fell open, "What?! Then why he calls you his wife?!"

"Well, we are engaged."

He gathered his jaw off of the floor, "that makes sense."

"And Yuji please stop calling me Sensei, it's annoying."

"Alright, (name) Sensei--- I mean okay, (name)."

After that, the boy fell in silence, "hey, Yuji?"

"Yes?"

"Do you have siblings?"

"No, I am the only one in the family." His cheerful smile fell, maybe the topic of his family was a sensitive one.

"Ah," (name) can sense the change in his normal cheery aura, the boy was too good at pretending to be happy.

"I'm the youngest in my family. I always wished for a younger sibling." She laughed at the memory of her as a five-year-old, begging her parents to buy a younger sibling.
