Papa came through the door. 

"Good morning, class. Get out your paper I assigned to you yesterday." Still holding my head, I spoke up. 

"Papa, I love you so much, but please, for the love of our heads, quiet down a bit? We had a little too much fun last night." 

"Oh, of course. Out of curiosity, what was your poison of choice?" 

" Everything, Papa. Shots of everything." 

"Wow, you went all out. Alright, I'll be quiet, and your secret is safe with me." 

"Do you need another sip of Diene?" 

"No. God, please no. That is the most vile thing I have ever tasted. Keep that bottle away from me." 

"Homemade remedy?" Papa asks, now curious from my reaction. 

"Homemade throw-up is what it is. How can you even drink that with a straight face?" 

"Diene, you're seriously asking me, that?" 

 "Yes! What's in that?"

"Eg-" 

"Don't even answer. I knew better than to ask that." 

"Alright then. Class, I made you do a paper yesterday as homework over boundaries and the importance of privacy. Please tell me why you think I had you do it." 

"Because we keep trying to open the GK 1A bridge door, meaning we're not giving whatever is on the other side privacy." A girl with black hair said, in a questioning tone. 

"Exactly, but you mean whomever. That building is for alumni and their families to stay at while they visit." 

"So you're saying that we have been bothering resting heroes that are here with family?"

"Exactly. When you pull or try to open the door, it sets an alarm off on the inside. Waking up whoever's inside." 

"Wait! Deku said the other day he had a baby at home that couldn't fall asleep because his security system keeps going off, not letting him get enough sleep at night or when he's off. Are you saying that we've been the reason the number one hero has been so tired?" 

"I couldn't have said it better myself." I giggle at the silence after Papa's reply. 

"How awful of you. Disturbing Deku's rest after all he's done for the country." 

"Says you. You and your friends disappear after school into whatever part of the dorms you guys stay at." 

"At least we're not disturbing the symbol of peace. You know I hear he messes up a lot when not fully rested." 

"Andhow would you know?" 

"The constant interviews. It's not rocket science. Papa? It's time to see Grandma and Auntie; can we go?" 

"Of course. Will it be long or just meds?" 

"Long, She has to look at the thing in my arm and blood work for all of us. Should be done by lunch if they don't find anything abnormal." 

"Oh, it's doctor's day. Alright, say hi for me and Grandpa. I'll tell Uncle Rush. Text Teen when you're done so they don't leave without you." 

"Yes Papa. Come on, let's go see Doctor Grandma." We walked out after that to Grandma's office. 

"Grandma, we're here for doctor day." 

"Ah yes. You know the drill: go lay down. Eri will give you your hangover pill, and we'll go from there." We did as she said.
