Part 1

"Good morning, Aya-chan"

"Good morning mas- Tatseyo-san!"

I smile at Aya-chan's reaction, guess it will take a while untill she can address me normally by the name

"I'm making breakfast, want some?"

I ask showing her the rice and toasts I've prepared

"Yes! Thank you"

Aya-chan steps into the kitchen, pulling one of the chairs to sit down

"Today I'm going to take the papers to the administration and talk about your situation with Rias-senpai"

"Who is Rias?"

Aya asks as she takes a bite on a toast

"She and Sona Sitri-kaichou are kinda like the 'leaders' of the school, to everyone else are just students, but just like Liliana-san, they are actually pure devils with their own teams. Kuoh academy was founded by their families and they are the 'de facto' shot-callers in there, if you are going to enroll, their permission is more important than the administration's"

Aya stops eating and looks at me with eyes filled with unease

"Wow, they sound important... do you think they'll let me in?"

Seeing the nervous expression on her face, I reach my hand to hers and hold it

"Don't worry, they are nice people"

She looks surprised at my sudden action, but returns the gesture and squeezes my hand back

"Thank you... Tatseyo-san"

I let her hand go and we continue eating, I've been thinking about taking Aya-chan directly to them so she could explain her story to Sona and Rias, after all, everyone in their peerages seems to have a sad story somehow, so I think they would have sympathy to her and be unable to refuse. But I decided against it, having Aya-chan talk in front of strangers about everything she's been through seems like a very cruel thing to do

"Is it good?"

I ask Aya-chan and she nods while swallowing her rice

"So good! It's mild and bland, just like the food that father cooked!"

I feel a rock falling on my head at the energetic, cheerful and at the same time offensive words of the little youkai girl

"I-I see... well, as long as you like it..."

She doesn't seem to have said it sarcastically as she takes another bite with a happy expression on her face, so my food tastes like shrine food, huh?

We continue having breakfast, I take this opportunity to explain to Aya-chan what I am.

"Esper?"

She asks and I nod

"Yes, you see, we..."

I explain to her about me, my family and our powers as well as what we do, Aya becomes impressed by our duty

After finishing it, I get ready to go to school and say goodbye to Aya before leaving

"Tatseyo-san! Wait!"

"Huh? What is it?"

Aya comes to me in a hurry with a box wrapped in a sheet

"You forgot your lunch!"

"Ah, thanks"

With all of these things happening around me I almost forgot to take my lunch box with me
