"So here's the thing." Mikey has never looked this serious before, "We'll help you with being able to save yourself and all, but Baji sucks at studies, and I hate math."

"Oi, I'm getting better." Baji makes a face at him, embarrassment trickling across his face, "I'm not that bad, (Name)-chan, it's just that I've started to bother about studies only recently."

"So you both can't help me with math?" it's not that big of a problem- you can always pick the book up and put the efforts yourself, but why bother as much? If someone can tutor you, things would be easier.

"We'll see what we can do." Mikey doesn't want to say no, "But as far as the other thing is concerned, you've come to the best person in the world, though I don't know how much you can do with the cast."

"It's just for cushioning." you tell him, "I mean- yeah, it's hurt bad, but it should heal soon. The cast is to just hold it in place."

"Then we'll start only after a week goes by." Baji says, "You'll only hurt yourself more if you try anything with that on."

"We'll start tomorrow, please?" you know you need to hurry up with this, there's a lot of luring danger around, "There's still a lot I can do with the cast on. I wouldn't use this arm much, but I still do have the rest of my body."

Mikey and Baji look concerned. Mikey especially has an unusual silence to him. It isn't until he voices his thoughts that you understand why he has been quietly observing you throughout the "who hurt you" discussion.

"Is this related to why you were being chased before Mucho found you? Is someone bothering you?"

Baji's eyes widen then immediately widen at Mikey's words. Clearly, he had not known about the specific detail, "What the fuck? What do you mean "chasing" her? What's going on here?"

"Oh, that was nothing." you wave it off, "I was running, bumped into a boy and his two lackeys, was too knocked over to be in my senses and called him scary. He got offended and sent his boys after me, that's it."

"Do you know this boy?" Baji is really putting you in tough spots today.

"Never talked to him ever before that." you put up your best act- you're not lying, you're just playing with the words and acting a little confident about them. You can do that, right?

"Okay." Baji nods, "I better not get to know you know this boy. I'd kill him later but punish you first."

"Interesting." Mikey turns towards him with a teasing smirk, "What all comes under the criteria of "punishing"? Aren't you getting dirty now, Baji?"

"Ignore this numbskull, (Name)-chan." Baji just makes a face at him, "He's yapping nonsense. We've got more important stuff to focus on, Mikey. Concentrate, will ya?"

"Jeez," Mikey rolls his eyes, "okay, princess."

"You're the princess."

"Oh, dare you, Baji."
