Despite what happened earlier this week at the school's library and with what happened on the news, people seemed to have moved on like nothing happened. It was odd. No one seemed afraid of what could happen. Kaito, Michi, and Yamamoto, who were all in the library with me, claimed that it was a good learning experience for them. The teachers claimed that they were installing better surveillance to make sure this didn't happen again.

As for what happened on the news, no one seemed to have cared what happened to Nobu Eto. Even during the segment of finding him with no Quirk, it was cut short before anyone could interview him. The only piece of public information that was given about him was that he owned the largest support tech company in all of Japan and was missing for a few months. My guess was that villain I saw at the library and at the mall kissed him and made him forget all about his Quirk.

Since no one seemed worried about it, I tried not to say a word. Besides, there was only one thing that everyone was excited about, and I wasn't going to be the one to take away from that.

And that was the Musutafu Hero Festival.

Sakura and I had made it a tradition to go together for the past four years. I would always walk over to her house as it was closer to the festival. My bag was packed, so I could spend the night. The plan was for us to spend the day together at the hero festival, and then I would spend the night. After that, she was going to help me get ready for my date with Kaito, despite all my protests that it wasn't that big of a deal.

I knew Sakura would never let me live it down that I managed to get a boyfriend before she did. She wanted everything to be perfect because of that, but that was Sakura for you.

We had a while before we could worry about that. I would rather just focus on one thing at a time. At that moment, it was getting inside Sakura's home. It was on the other side of the city, with a nice white picket fence wrapped around the front yard. The house towered over it, while a cemented sidewalk led straight to the front door.

My left finger pressed onto the doorbell, while my right arm readjusted the back pack on my arm. It had everything I needed for the night and for tomorrow as I already had on my white kimono that had a light pink flower pattern on it. While the kimono was fairly worn down from wearing it every year to the festival, I made sure that the thick pink obi that went around the waist of it was clean to give it some sort of life. 

"Tami-tan! It's so nice to see you again," I heard Sakura's Mom, Hana, say as she opened the door.

When I looked up at her, I saw both Hana and her wife, Yui, standing there. I'd admit, the first time I met Sakura's parents, I was shocked. They both looked like an older version of Sakura, despite her being adopted when she was a baby. If that wasn't strange enough, she had a very similar Quirk as Yui did, who could make flowers grow out of literally anywhere.

They were a cute pair as they always wore matching outfits wherever they went. While I was going to the festival with Sakura, it was evident that Yui and Hana were going to do the same as they had floral print kimonos on. While Hana's kimono was green to match her eyes, Yui's was blue, almost making her hair look like it was a dark blue rather than the ebony color that it was.

It was nice seeing how happy they were together.

"Sakura is still in her room upstairs getting ready. I'm sure she'll be more than happy to know that you're here," Hana said as she motioned for me to come in.

I smiled, walking inside and looking at the area around me. For some odd reason, it had been a while since I had last stepped foot inside.

Sakura and I would always study at my house because it was easier to keep an eye on Ollie that way. It was also closer to the school than where Sakura lived, which made more sense.
