Chapter 153 - It feels natural

Brando sat down in class and looked at his homeroom teacher who wanted to say something.

"Uh... Summer vacation's close at hand. Of course, it would be completely irrational for all of you to take a whole month off," Aizawa said.

Brando twitched his lips and felt bad forbearing.

"Don't tell me....!"

"You'll be doing a summer training camp in the woods," Aizawa said.

"I freaking knew it! Nice!"

Brando wondered why everyone seemed to love summer training. He wanted to enjoy his holiday, but it didn't seem that easy.

"Truth or dare!"

"Bathhouse!"

"Fireworks!"

"Bathhouse!"

"Curry, yes!"

Aizawa got annoyed at them since they had become quite noisy. "However...."

"Anyone who doesn't pass the upcoming final exams..."

"....Is in for summer school hell, right here."

Kirishima raised his fist and shouted, "Do your best guys!"

Brando waited for the class to be over and walked to Aizawa since he would bring his pet back to his apartment.

"You're going to take your pet?" Aizawa asked.

"Hmm..." Brando nodded.

"...." Aizawa looked at him for a while and nodded. "Come with me."

Brando looked at Aizawa and asked, "Sensei, is it only me or do you seem quite reluctant for some reason?"

"No, I am not," Aizawa replied to him immediately.

Brando smiled and said, "Sensei has someone tell you that you're tsundere."

"Shut up!"

Brando only smiled and said, "I know."

Aizawa sighed and said, "It seems that your internship's result is very good."

Brando nodded and said, "Yes, I have learned a lot of things from Ryukyu." He felt that his phone was ringing. He saw that it was a message from Yui.

Yui: "Where are you?"

Brando: "I am going to take my pet back."

Yui: "I'll wait for you."

Brando: "I'll come in a flash." He closed his smartphone and entered the teacher's room.

Aizawa pointed his finger at the aquarium in the middle of the room. "That's your pet."

"Thank you, Sensei." Brando walked to the aquarium and picked it up. He looked at Aizawa and said, "Sensei, can I ask for a request?"

"What?"

"When the summer break starts, can you keep this fish for a while?"

"Where are you going to go?" Aizawa asked.

"I am going to train and I can't take care of them," Brando said.

Aizawa raised his eyebrow then sighed. "You're very careless. I'll take care of them later."

"Thank you," Brando said with a smile. He felt that Aizawa really loved his pet for some reason. He thought that it might be because it was quite and cute at the same time that Aizawa really loved it. "Then, I'll go home now. Sensei, thank you very much."

"Hmm..." Aizawa nodded at him.

Brando went back home with Yui who had been waiting for him.

Aizawa looked at Brando's back and missed Brando's pet. He felt that taking care of fish was very easy and it was very calming him down. His mood was quite good since he knew that he would meet both Sushi and Sashimi again in the future.

Yui stood up while resting her back on the wall waiting for Brando. She could see a lot of students were going home and her friends also greeted her. She waved and said goodbye to them.

"Yui, did you wait?"

Yui who heard this voice turned and shook her head. "No."

"That's good. Let's go back," Brando said.

"Hmm...." Yui nodded. She looked at the aquarium and said, "Is it only me or these fishes seems to get fatter."

"Hmm, you might be right. I think some people might feed it so much that they want it to eat later," Brando said.

"That's too cruel!" Yui said.

"I was joking," Brando said.

Both of them walked home together while talking to each other.

Yui looked at Brando and wondered why she felt that being with him was very natural. She didn't need to worry a lot and could talk to him freely. "Let's stop at a nearby supermarket."

"What are we going to eat?" Brando asked.

"What do you want to eat?" Yui asked.

"Hmm... Curry? I miss your curry for some reason," Brando said.

Yui nodded and said, "Curry is good. I'll buy the ingredients later."

They went to the supermarket and bought the ingredients together.

Brando couldn't help Yui too much since he brought a quite big aquarium in both of his hands.

An employee of the supermarket who looked at both Yui and Brando couldn't help but blush when she found out that both of them were talking to each other similar to a newlywed. She wondered whether they were both living together. 'I smell gossip.'

Brando twitched his lips listening to the conversation of the supermarket staff.

"What is it?" Yui asked.

"Well... The staff at the supermarket thought that we were going out," Brando said.

"G - Going out?" Yui looked away and tried to hide her blush. She looked at him and asked curiously, "What do you think?"

"What?"

"Going out with me? You know, isn't their conversation bothering you?" Yui asked.

Brando snorted and said, "I am not an elementary school student. I am not embarrassed, rather I might be happy to go out with you."

"Oh? Why?" Yui looked at him curiously.

"It just feels natural to you," Brando said. He wasn't sure why but this girl made him calm down and it might be because this girl had a problem showing her emotion. He held the aquarium with one hand then held Yui's hand. "See... It fits perfectly." He intertwined their fingers together and held it gently.

Yui stared at Brando for a while and sighed. "I wonder why?"

"We have a lot of time to answer that question," Brando said.

"So you'll help me to search for that answer?" Yui asked.

"If you're okay with it?" Brando said.

Yui looked at her hand that held his hand. She tightened her hand and said, "Let's do this until we have arrived at home."

Brando looked at Yui and knew that it was only time before this girl would fall for him. "I am more than happy to do that."
