Tomorrow morning. Yūrei had woken up early in the morning, the time was 7:00. She dressed in her everyday clothes, a red dress and black heels. Her long hair hung down her back. The moment she was ready to go out, she opened the door to leave, but Gojo was standing in front of it.

Yūrei was frozen about his sudden appearance. Gojo was making sure if she's on her room and keeping an eye. Yūrei's face was serious, she was expecting such an observation but not so strict. With that Yūrei walks beside him and not greeting him. Not even expecting him to follow her at the hallway.

Gojo falls into step alongside her, his presence silent and unobtrusive. He doesn't say anything initially, preferring instead to observe her reactions. It's clear that he expects her to speak first.

Yūrei notices him. "There's actually no need to follow me, I'm just wandering around and watching the place."

Gojo shrugs nonchalantly, a hint of a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth. "Oh, I wasn't following you. Just happened to be heading in the same direction."

"Of course!" Yūrei stops to watch him with her full view, not falling for that. "Isn't it strange that were heading the same direction!"

Gojo meets her gaze head-on, his expression unreadable. He takes a step closer, invading her personal space slightly. "What's so strange about two people walking the same path? Especially when one of them happens to be your guardian?"

"Guardian?! Don't make me laugh. Why don't you just leave me alone?! Let me wander the hallways in peace!" She finishes clearly. As she starts walking away again.

Gojo matches her pace effortlessly, his long strides easily keeping up with her shorter ones. He tilts his head, considering her words. "I could ask you the same thing, Yūrei. Why are you so determined to avoid me? Are you afraid of what i might understand about you?" There's a note of challenge in his voice, a dare for her to respond.

"Afraid of you? Hardly." Her voice drips with sarcasm as she continues walking ahead.

Gojo smirks, finding her response amusing. "Well, whatever the reason, I intend to find out. You see, Suzu, I've made it my mission to uncover every secret you try to hide. And trust me, I always get what I want in the end."

"Of course you do." She sighs heavily, rolling her eyes as she continues to walk. She's quiet for a while before finally speaking up again. "Fine then. If you really must tag along, how about we make a deal?" She stops in place and turns to watch him fully. Her voice is calm.

"A deal?"

Looking up at him with a defiant glint in her eye. "Simple. If I can beat you in a sparring match without even using cursed technique, you agree to leave me alone and respect my privacy. No more 'guardian' nonsense, no more constant supervision. I'll head free in the hallways." She pauses, letting her words sink in before continuing with a smirk. "But if you win... well, I suppose I'll just have to accept your guardian thing?"

Gojo chuckles softly considering her proposal. "That sounds fair enough. However..." he adds quickly, seeing the stubborn glint in her eyes, "I appreciate your spirit, so yes."

"It's a deal then?"

"It's a deal."

— After some minutes —

The air crackles with anticipation as Gojo and Suzu face off outside the Jujutsu High. They stand opposite each other, ready to begin their sparring match. Gojo was focused on her, while Yūrei had removed her heels so she could move more freely with him, in the other hand she was even smiling about the situation she got herself in.
