Yuji broke the door, as he could hear yelling and screaming from the room. To his surprised, Mio is already fall to the floor, touching left cheek. Satoru is there, panting in angry.

"Good, now you involved him too?!" He yells.

"I don't! Why you keep accusing me of something I don't do? Are you insecure?" Mio asked. Yuji rushed towards the red hair, before helps her to stand.

"I don't know what you two are, but this is wrong. You can't hit women!" Yuji stated. 

"Don't interrupt, Yuji. This is our business, husband and wife." Satoru's cold tone makes Mio shivers.

"Husband? Are you kidding me? This is domestic abuse! You hit her! Mio is bruised!" Yuji helps Mio to walk away.

"I said don't interrupt!"

"No! I'll fucking call the police if you ever touch her again. Husband or not, teacher or not, sorcerer or not, you're crazy! You're crueller than Sukuna! I lost my respect to you, sensei. Let's go, Mio." That's all Yuji said, before he and Mio left the room.

Satoru bite his lower lips, angry. Oh, how he wants to blast everything in front of him right now. Mio could only glance at Satoru for a while, as Yuji bring her away, far from her own room. Of course, she feel happy that she didn't need to take every single hit he would give. But yeah, seeing Satoru looks so angry like that makes Mio feel scared.

Like, something really bad would happened. Who knows what he could be planning?

"Done! It's xx yen, miss. You are beautiful as ever." That's what makes Mio snap out of her own world. She nod, blank. She then look at the hairdresser. Hell, since when she came here?

"Um, thanks." Mio thanked the hairdresser, before she walks towards the cashier. She paid the right amount, before wait for Yuji. It seems like he's taking his extra time waiting for her to do something like full package of-

"Mio!" Oh, he's here already. Mio greet him with a smile. Yuji then pay his bill, before the two exit the unisex hair salon. 

Mio didn't really want to say anything, but goodness, it seems like Yuji understand that she need silence. The city is full of people. It's crowded, but it feels nice. The breeze makes her new hair flows, following the wind. Mio looks around, as she could smell something tasty. A bread smell. She has never smell anything tasty like this.

She tap Yuji's shoulder, before speak.

"Hey, wanna get some sandwich?" Mio offers. Of course, as a good friend, Yuji agree.

"Sure. Anything for ya!" He said, immediately. Mio then walks towards the place where she smell the fresh baked goods.

Her nose stated that a small bakery as the place. Mio push the door, open it and enter. Yuji closely follow from behind. He grabs a tray and a tongs for Mio, as it seems like Mio already lost in her own world. Mio stop at a the bread's counter. She read the tag, banana bread. Mio wants to grab two of it, as she grab the tray and tongs hold by Yuji.

Hurry, as her stomach already growling, Mio paid for the bread before she takes a few bites. Tasty, that's all she could say.

"Hi, today, we have free breads for couple. I suppose that you two would like to take the free breads?" Sweet voice from a lady that is attending them. Mio look at Yuji, before he smile and simply nod.

"Yeah, sure. We will take two breads, please." He stated.

The lady nod, before she pick up a tongs and put two bread in a paper bag.

"Thank you." Mio said, before she take the paper bag. Yuji smile, thanking the cashier. So, the two headed back to Jujutsu High. They can't stay that far and outside too long, as new mission might be up.

Upon arriving, it seems like the second years is not there. Usually, they would practice and make the first year join them. Mio found it's awkwardly weird, but she didn't want to pry further. Yuji feels that too, but he remain calm and silent. The two then sit on a bench nearby, eating the freshly baked goods without any hesitation.

It seems such a good day, at least for now. Mio got her hair cut, and she got her sweet, tasty bread. Yuji thought of that too. Mio's pensive gaze while eating really look like a goddess to him. She is beautiful, no debate. 

"You look so happy eating in this kind of situation." Another voice, makes the two startle. Of course, Yuji knows well that it wasn't him or Mio speak, but another entity that reside inside his body.

"Not really." Mio reply. Her focus shifted to a mouth that appears on Yuji's cheek. Yet, Mio continue to eat. She didn't mind though, as she's really hungry for bread this time.

"Why you're suddenly pop up out of nowhere? It's weird." Yuji sigh. He do wants to put his palm over his cheek but yeah, not necessary.

"I'm doing what I like, brat." He replied.

Mio then stop eating. She looks around, before put the paper bag away. Yuji wants to ask something, but Mio run, fast. It seems like she's having something. Yuji wants to follow, but Mio already gone before he could know where she headed to. He sigh, before patiently waiting.

A few minutes later, Mio came back, looking weak. She looks more exhausted than ever, as if she throw up earlier. She slowly walks towards Yuji, before she sit. She didn't look interested in her bread anymore.

"Do you want to eat more, Mio?" Yuji asked. Mio shake her head, disagree.

"I'm... Tired." She replied. 

"Oh, sorry. Do you want me to keep the bread for you?" Yuji asked. He looks worried.

"Yeah, sure. I'll go to my room for now. Thanks, Yuji." Mio bid farewell. Yuji didn't get to say anything at all, so he simply nod, watching Mio walks away, far from him.

As for Mio, it's the second time she throw up today. It's weird. She didn't have allergies or something. She's not sick too, she guess? But why?

Yet, there's something possible crawl to her mind. She fasten her pace, walking to her room. Thank goodness, no sign of Satoru inside her room. She open her drawer, before take a small box outside. A pregnancy test kit. She bought it before, as a precaution..

Gulp, Mio rushed towards the bathroom.
