Saturday, the day after work or school where almost everyone can relax or have fun. Unfortunately, the author here is stuck typing chapters she forgot to do. Sorry back to the story; as for Izumi, Saturday is just as hectic as any other day since she's working at the Pale Moon cafe instead of dealing with the chaos that comes with UA.

Currently, Izumi is getting dressed for her shift after taking a shower. So she's dressed in your usual white dress shirt with a black bow, black waistcoat, a black pencil skirt, black 1-inch heels, and black stockings. Though Inko has suggested having Izumi wear a maid's dress to attract some more customers, Izumi has stuck to her current uniform.

'Okay... the Sports Festival hopefully hasn't attracted attention to me.' Thought Izumi as she headed downstairs to see a few people already outside of the cafe and a little less than half of them weren't usual customers. 'Oh, just my luck. Hopefully, Mineta doesn't sneak in.' She thought again as she walked into the kitchen to see her mother cleaning the oven with a monstrosity of what should be a cake on the table.

"Ah, Izumi! Let everyone in and go get the coffee machine started," Inko said before returning to the oven while Izumi opened the door and the usual customers came in first.

With that done, Izumi went behind the counter and started the coffee machine for some black coffee as the usual journalist was waiting at the register. "Sorry, how can I help you, Minashi-san?" Izumi asked as the coffee machine started and went to the register.

"The usual please." She answered as Izumi rang her up for a coffee with 4 creams and 2 sugars. "Good job in the Sports Festival though. Hardly expected that big water show you put on." She said tiredly as she went to sit down and went on her phone. But Izumi gave her the coffee before she left for the news agency, leaving Izumi to fulfill a few more orders while Inko finished cleaning the oven and started to take orders from the few people who sat down for their breakfast.

That's pretty much how Izumi's Saturday morning went as everyone else in Class 1-A were either still sleeping (Katsuki) or at the mall and planning a prank (Everyone else besides Mineta). So at the mall, everyone was at the food court talking over the plan.

"Should we even be doing this?" Shoto asked as he looked towards the group of giggling girls and guys, which was quite weird from the guys.

In response, Momo pulled out her phone and opened up a memo with their plan. "Of course. You're hardly the forward one in the relationship and think of it as a celebration for how well our class did in the Sports Festival." She said as everyone stopped making noises and quieted down a bit. "So first, Todoroki-san will talk to Midoriya-san to allow us in after hours. Then we should be able to stay if Todoroki-san can get Izumi-chan to stay with his family for the night. In the meantime, we'll decorate with what Mina-chan, Ochaco-chan, Toru-chan, and Kyoka-chan bought earlier. And since they're closed on Sunday, we have a party!"

"Sounds like a plan!" Mina said as she jumped out of her chair.

"If you wake up in a weird place, don't blame me," Shoto said before he got up and walked out of the mall with a few classmates behind him.

Now back to Izumi, she just started to serve the afternoon crowd since Inko took over the register. Currently, Izumi is preparing a strawberry shortcake, a few parfaits, and a loaf of banana bread for the few people who were going to eat at the cafe. But while that happened, Shoto walked into the cafe and sat down at a table for two people by the window.
