The Sun and The Moon *Hitoshi Shinso*

twenty three

I stared at the female in front of me. She had a very serious look in her eyes as she studied me.

"Kit..you're just like every Hikawa female before you," She mumbled softly, "That's not good, at all,"

I tilted my head and looked at her curiously, "What do you mean? The Hikawa women have always been strong, determined girls," I stated.

"Along with being overly cocky, ignorant, and stubborn," Rina explained, "They've always rushed things, they never had much promise in them, but you're different,"

"Different how?" I asked, growing annoyed with the female. My ears had folded against my head long ago, but she seemed unfazed by it.

"During the festival, you were hesitant. You showed that you were capable of getting through tough obstacles by not only relaying on your quirk or intellect, but you relied on your partner at the time. You took time to think out strategies," She paused and looked at me, "Do you remember when we first met? When the League of Villains appeared?" She asked.

I nodded my head, "Yeah, you saved Tomiko and I," I informed.

"I admit, I watched you two fight against those villains for some time," Rina looked out the window before looking back to me, "I was impressed by your speed. While Tomiko recovered, you did you're best to distract the villains whereas your family has a tendency to...well, to put it bluntly, give up. You kept you're comrades safe, proving that you aren't cocky. You took time to listen to Tomiko's plan and rolled with it, showing you weren't as stubborn as the others. Then, to prove you aren't an illiterate fool, you followed behind Tomiko's steps," She smiled, "You two have a bright future ahead of you, as long as you don't turn into your ancestors,"

I couldn't help but blush, was that her way of giving me a compliment? My ears perked up as I looked at her, "How do you know all this stuff?"  I asked curiously.

Rina's cheeks reddened and she rubbed her neck, "Well, you see, I maybe did a lot of extensive research after meeting you. I knew you looked familiar," She explained awkwardly.

I sighed as I sat on the bed in the guest bedroom. I had placed my bag down by the door had my phone plugged into the charger and my shoes kicked off. Tomiko, who figured out that Solar Moon was Rina's husband and she was staying here as well, was on the other side of the room.

"I can't believe they're married," She suddenly said.

A grin grew on my lips as I looked at her, "I find it humorous. A woman who can control plants, married a man who harbors blinding light,"

A small chuckle sounded from her, "Photo Synthesis,"

I laughed quietly and laid on the bed just as the door opened. I turned my head to see the little girl that Rina and her husband, Hiroto, had. I learned her name was Honoka and she was five hears old.

"M-Ms H-Hikawa, Ms M-Miyamoto," She greeted shyly while stepping into the room.

Tomiko immediately sat up from the bed and looked at the kid, a stone cold look on her face. I smiled warmly at the adorably shy child, "What is it, sweety?" I asked.

"D-Dinner's ready," She informed before scurrying off.

I smiled and slipped my shoes back on before looking over at Tomiko and spoke, "Try to be nice to the kid, yeah?" I grinned, "She's trying to be nice,"

"You know damn well I don't like kids," She stated as she walked out of the room.

I sighed quietly and followed after her. The smell of tonkatsu invaded my nose and immediately my mouth began to water. I quickly hurried towards the dining room to see a total of five plates with the same amount of food on each.

"I hope you girls like tonkatsu!" Hiroto exclaimed as he placed three glasses of milk in front of three plates and two wine glasses at the end of the table.

"Its my favourite!" I exclaimed, sending him a beaming smile.

I wasn't lying. I loved everything from the breaded chicken all the way down go the sauce. Hiroto chuckled quietly and spoke, "If only Honoka was that excited for it," He chuckled.

Once everyone was settled we all started to eat. Every now and again we would talk about heroes, or listen to Honoka shyly tell us about her day in school. She had only eaten the shredded cabbage before stopping completely.

"Honoka, if you want to be a great hero like Hikawa and Miyamoto, eat your chicken," Rina stated in a rather dull voice as she took a sip from her red wine.

My cheeks flushed a red and I looked down at the almost finished plate. "B-but it looks nasty," She whispered.

I looked at her and smiled broadly, "You wanna know something, Honoka?" I asked. Her eyes widened as she looked at me, but she nodded her head. "When I was younger I hated Ramen,"

"W-Wha! How? R-Ramen is delicious!" She exclaimed.

I chuckled softly and nodded my head in agreement, "It is," I looked at her, "But the problem was I thought it looked nasty. Then I tried it and I got hooked on the taste," I informed smiling, "So try it, it's delicious," I stated as I shoved a piece of the chicken into my mouth.

Honoka slowly lifted a piece of chicken and bit into it. She chewed for a moment before her eyes flew wide and her cheeks reddened as she hungrily took another bite from it.

After dinner I went to the room and laid down, soon feeling my phone buzz next to me.
