[ japanese english ] dialogue

day five. friday.

[name] had been quite serene since the night before. the whole experience shook her down to her core, in a good way.

she'd been doing some thinking. if dabi, someone who's probably went through a way lot worse than her, could move on with life and go with the flow, why couldn't she?

perhaps it was why she was so peaceful that day. she saw everything in a new light. all thanks to dabi. he was an inspiration.

suffering hardships but he dealt with it, and is living his life the way he wants to now.

she could just wait until she's old enough, save up some money, and shut out the family she didn't like. take no shit, do no harm, live life the way she wanted to.

that day she left her house with a new perspective.

hey, maybe today's actually gonna be a good day.

this isn't so bad. [name] thought. i mean, still boring but it's also kinda fun doing all the math again.

she looks around. most of the students are listening intently. one of the them catches her eye, again.

todoroki shouto, the one sitting just to her right.

she observes him again. she did this the very first day too. most she could see was his left side.

so familiar.

[name] punches away her thought. how annoying. everything has been seeming real familiar lately but i just absolutely cannot figure out why.

her thoughts are interrupted by the opening of the large classroom door. a petite short-haired female wearing round glasses sticks her head in and calls over the math teacher.

they exchange a few words before the teacher calls out, "[last name], please come over. you're being excused for the rest of the period."

[name] shows a confused look but stands up anyway. she is instructed to bring a pencil and some blank paper, and she follows.

fuck, i'm not taking another test, am i?

just the thought of it made her want to throw up. but she hoped for the best.

she reaches the hallway and the 1-a classroom door is shut behind her. the woman who called her out gives her a smile.

she has a small figure, and brown hair up to her shoulders. she is just a few inches shorter than [name] and she donned a green turtleneck with a black pencil skirt.
