Furtive Ignominy (COMPLETED)

CHAPTER 18

Y/n was currently in the living room of Nanami's condo. Her apartment was nothing compared to this huge abode he had. She was gawking at the flight of stairs in the living room directing to 2 bedrooms upstairs. The floor was so shiny that she could almost see her reflection on it. And over that living area was the dining area with a nice view of the city beyond the lanai.

It was a nice afternoon for Y/n where Nanami even took the pride to take her to lunch and afternoon snack without her having to spend a single coin. The sun was perfectly setting as it vanished on the horizon of the busy street of Shibuya.

"You are living here alone?" she sighed in amazement as she walked past the dining area to the lanai which was considered a balcony as well. From that location, she felt like she was flying as the wind blew on her face, messing with her hair and shirt.

"Was." Nanami replied from above the mezzanine as he put her luggage to her bedroom. "And now you're living with me."

"Ah, okay. Can I use your things around this house?" She grinned at him, watching him walk down the stairs to the dining where he leaned on the table.

Nanami could only let out a small smile on his lips, "I don't mind, you're here now so feel free. Just don't burn it down." He chuckled.

Y/n looked at Nanami's direction. His hair was disheveled yet it's quite a sight. His muscles were ripped behind those long-sleeves that were folded to his elbows. Now that she thought about it, she made-out with that man.

But that was the least of her worries now. And she knew Nanami wouldn't even dare to touch her again since he had no fetishes with untouched women. But at the back of her mind, "Gosh, what did I do to have two handsome men make out with me?" she blushed at her own thoughts.

She shook her head and went back in and stood before him. Gojo was taller than him but she couldn't deny the fact that this man was as massive as her professor. With the height difference they have, she had to crane her neck so that their eyes could meet. "What about my classes? I don't want to stop just because of this."

"I figured that out, your professor would come here every MWF." Nanami explained. "But the faculty was still in a meeting of who are they going to send to you. Now that the cat's out of the bag, they knew somehow that someone out there was targeting you. So..."

"So, they're scared to be with me." Y/n's once excited aura became downhearted. As the sudden realization of her grave situation. Someone out there was after her and so she couldn't just hang around with her friends or classmates anymore. Of course, she wanted to spend time with them but she can't just ignore the fact that they might end up like Mori. She doesn't want anyone to get hurt because of her.

She was still lucky though that Nobara and Yuji didn't stop spending time with her and they remained by her side despite knowing that she was like a ticking bomb. "Thank you, guys. I really owe you."

But that was just a few seconds as memories of yesterday flooded in her mind. Her eyes widened as she looked at Nanami. "It's not me who Satsujin wants."

"Satsujin?" Nanami tilted his head to the side as he raised his brow, focusing on Y/n's small stature without him knowing he was tilting his head downwards.

"That was his name." Y/n trailed off. "The killer."

Nanami's confused stare became serious, "Tell me more."

Nanami and Y/n made their way to the couch in the living area. He listened intently as she described the intruder that night. He could see that her hands were tightly clenched on her knees and her voice was trembling which she tried to hide with chuckle and fake coughs but she was still continuing describing what happened. That made him internally praise her bravery.
