11 Rejection (1/2)

Katsuro silently glared upon the new girl. For a second, both of their gazes met and Itsuka was confused with the hostility Katsuro generated.

She lightly tapped Izuku on the shoulder and whispered,

”Everyone is so welcoming here, but that girl in the back looks like she doesn't like me for some reason. She is even glaring at me.” said Itsuka.

Izuku looked the way her fingers pointed, just to see a mad Katsuro glaring daggers into them. ”A-Ah.. Don't take it to heart Kendo. Kacchan is like that to everyone.” replied Izuku.

”Kacchan?”

”She is my best, and currently, the only friend I've ever had, so I really value her a lot. She is usually cursing and screaming at everyone, but she is a good person.” replied Izuku.

”Then, I will be your second friend!” smiled Kendo.

Izuku lightly blushed and said,”S-Sure..”

”Okay class. Let's begin our first lesson. Kendo, go sit behind Midoriya and Bakugo.” said Kusuo.

Izuku and Itsuka went to their seats. As Izuku sat down, he couldn't help but glance at his childhood friend from the corner of his eye.

Katsuro grabbed his arm and tightly squeezed it.

”Ouch. Kacchan.. Stop..”

”You've got some nerve... Deku....”

”Hm? What do you mean by that?”

Katsuro didn't reply and she continued squeezing his arm.

”Kacchan that hurts. Please stop.”

Izuku was bewildered at what was happening.

She was literally ignoring him this morning, but now.. She is actually breakinghis arm.

”Who the hell is that girl, where the fuck were you two??” whispered Katsuro.

”I don't know, I've met her this morning and she said that I should go with her to the teachers office. Later on, I've received a notice, that I will become the class president.” replied Deku.

Her grip on his arm loosened, and he could finally feel some blood pumping in his left arm.

”I see. Well. I assume that you won't speak with her again then?”

”What do you mean by that? She is a cheerful girl and we quickly got along.” replied Izuku.

”Hah. Deku.. I don't think you realize what making a friend is like. You make a friend, and then, they will betray you.” Katsuro looked at him with emotionless eyes.

”What do you mean by that? Then how are we two friends? I don't play on betraying you!” said Izuku.

”Exactly! Because you are you! The Deku! We are best friends since childhood. It would be weird if we separated, right? Right?”

The tone of her voice got more sinister, and for some reason Izuku felt, that if he answered wrong, he would die.

”Look Kacchan, I know what you mean, but you can't just go around isolating yourself from the world. One day, we will have tons of friends, at least, that's what I believe in!” Izuku cheerfully replied.

Katsuro looked at him for a moment before falling silent.

The bell rang, and the first class officially started.

Kusuo asked some questions related to his subject, but the only person that responded to him was Izuku. It's not like people didn't want to respond to their new teacher, but they were unable to. The questions he asked were so hard, that the only one that raised his hand was Izuku.

Kids in the class were getting angrier by every second.

How can this quirkless trash be better than us?

But, no one doubted his ability anymore. That was exactly what Kusuo wanted.
