Goodbye Suguru
Your heart was beating at an ungodly speed, your breath was going fast and your limbs hurt from exorcising so many cursed spirits. But you had to make it in time, you just had to. Satoru was too busy, you knew he wouldn't make it back to Jujutsu Tech in time.
But you could make it.
You just hoped that your students would be alright. That they would be alive. You knew what Suguru was capable of and he wouldn't hesitate to kill kids, especially someone like Maki who was born without cursed energy.
Your train of thoughts came to a sudden halt as you finally reached the familiar school grounds. You didn't even have to enter, as you already saw the damage from outside. Huge parts of the main buildings were entirely destroyed. But you could only guess whose deeds these were.
You quickly made your way towards a nearby alley, which was a shortcut to the main site. To say that you were surprised by who you met there, would be an understatement.
"You're late.", Suguru said,"Even though I didn't expect you here, Y/N."
You didn't say anything, too busy staring at him, or rather the right side of his body. You saw that his arm had been blown off, which gave you a little bit of Hope that at least Yuta would be alive.
"To think you'd be the one here at my end.", he continued without waiting for an answer,"Is my family safe?"
You were a bit taken aback by his question, but answered nonetheless:"Everyone of them managed to escape. The ones in Kyoto were under your orders too, right?"Suguru only smiled at you, leaning further into the wall he was sitting against:"Yeah, unlike you, I'm a kind Person."
You could only scoff at his words, choosing not to answer him."You and Satoru sent those two assuming that I'd defeat them, didn't you? To set Okkotsu off", Suguru finally asked.
You sighed:"We...I trusted you. Trusted that a man as principled as you wouldn't kill off young sorcerers without a reason."
"Trust, huh?", he grinned," I didn't think I still had any of that left."
His words almost made you tear up. Even though you put on a tough demeanor in front of him, it still pained you to see him like this. Only a shell of the man he once was. The man you once loved.
Upon hearing your silence, Suguru lifted his remaining arm and threw a card at you:"Return this for me, will you?"
You briefly looked at it and realized that it was Yuta's student ID card.
"Was the elementary school your doing too?", you asked quietly, finally connecting all the dots in your head."Yeah.", Suguru mumbled, not seeming to care about the children that he put in danger.
"I can't believe you.", you hissed under your breath,"Do you have any last words?"
You were bluffing. Both you and Suguru knew that you couldn't kill him. For once you had used up too much of your cursed energy in the fight at Shinjuku and secondly, you knew that you could never work up the courage to kill the man you once loved, maybe still did.
Nevertheless, Suguru decided to answer like you were in fact about to kill him:"No matter what anyone says, I hate those monkeys. But I never held any hatred for those in Jujutsu High. I just couldn't wear a heartfelt smile in this world."
You only looked at him for a couple of seconds before deciding on your answer. You took a few steps forward, kneeling in front of him. You trusted that he wouldn't try to harm you in any way. That at least a small part of him that loved you, was still there.
