MHA: Living as a Mineta is hard

"Natsu?" Fuyumi looked at Natsu in confusion.

"Sorry, Fuyumi-nee. This atmosphere is strangely comfortable, but... I can't forgive him so easily."

Natsu bit his lower lip, bringing his dishes to clean up, and left the room.

"....."

Mineta and Bakugou.

However, Mineta soon resumed eating quietly since it was too wasteful to leave everything.

"....."

Bakugou looked at Mineta, speechless, but this was the step he needed to take the throne of the number one hero, so he ate.

Mineta and Bakugou ate as if nothing had happened.

Fuyumi, who was in a complicated mood, also smiled at Mineta and said, "Thank you."

"No problem."

While the dinner ended with such an awkward situation, they didn't leave the dinner and finished all of it.

Mineta might be a bastard, but he also could read the atmosphere, so he didn't continue to flirt with Fuyumi since the situation didn't support him to do so, which made him sigh in regret.

At the end of the dinner, they helped Fuyumi to clean up the dishes and the room.

Even Bakugou and Endeavour also helped to clean up together. The two might be rough, but they still maintained a basic manner.

Still, because of this situation, Endeavour lost his vigilant toward Mineta, and he didn't seem to notice that his daughter seemed to clean up the room with Mineta. In his mind, he was still thinking about the mistake he had made.

The family he had built was crumbling.

Everyone felt like they were walking on the surface of thin ice.

However, even so, some of them were still stubbornly trying to maintain everything while others tried to forgive, yet some were still unable to forgive.

"Thank you, Minoru-kun."

"It's nothing. You prepared such a nice dinner. Of course, I will be glad to help you clean up the room."

Mineta thought that Fuyumi thanked him for cleaning up the room.

"No, it's not that." Fuyumi looked at him with a warm smile. "Thank you for making our house lively. It's been a while since we had such a merry dinner."

"Really? Then, should I visit more often?"

"Sure." Fuyumi smiled. "Please come more often, but..." She blushed and gently scolded him. "But stop making such a joke, okay?" While she was happy that he would come, she didn't want him to make such a joke, teasing her that he would marry her. She was, after all, several years older than him, and she was also the big sister of his best friend.

How could they have a relationship, right?

"But, what if I am serious about you?"

"...hh?"

Fuyumi was stunned as she looked into Mineta's eyes. His eyes were earnest and sincere, as if telling her what he felt was the truth. She blushed, and her heart was beating so fast.

Did he really fall for me?

When such a thought crossed her mind, she didn't know how to face him. She was nervous, yet as a woman, she was attracted to him. She wasn't sure whether he was serious or not, but this ambiguous atmosphere started to permeate between them.

However, when everything was moving in the right direction, someone interrupted them.

"What are you doing with someone's big sister?" Todoroki pushed Mineta away, who somehow moved closer to Fuyumi as he was ready to freeze him to death. He wasn't joking, and he was serious since he really wanted to beat up this bastard.

"Shoto-kun, is this how you treat your best friend?" Mineta was hurt.

"...I will beat you to death, bastard!" Todoroki's voice was full of chill and ready to fight.

"Wait! Wait! Stop!" Fuyumi stood in front of Mineta, trying to protect him from her little brother. "Don't fight, okay? Don't mess with the room again!"

"...."

Todoroki stared at Mineta begrudgingly before he snorted and looked away, but he still stayed and didn't move away since he was afraid that Mineta might seduce his sister again.

The three of them cleaned the room together as Mineta talked with Fuyumi about her job and interests. As for what was happening at the dinner before, he didn't ask, which relieved Fuyumi and Todoroki greatly.

Mineta could tell how complicated the Todoroki household was, especially when he could smell the scent of incense.

Was it normal for a house to light up incense?

If he had to say, it depended on the situation.

However, he wondered who had passed away, yet he knew how fragile the Todoroki household was. With a slight touch, it might break apart, so it was better to be cautious. He also thought that it might be better to talk about this when he was alone with Fuyumi so that way when she was at her weakest, he would be by her side, staying by her side, comforting her before she fell into his arms.

Cough! Cough!

Anyway, even if Endeavour was annoying, his daughter was beautiful, so why not?

He could also imagine that Fuyumi would become a good wife and a mother. With such a tough and extreme father like Endeavour, he could tell that Fuyumi's tolerance was quite high. Still, the only thing that he was afraid of was that Endeavour and Todoroki might kill him if they knew that he had opened a harem.

With that said, it was impossible for Endeavour to let Mineta stay at his house.

"What? Why can't I stay for a night?" Mineta was so disappointed.

"What do you think?" Endeavour asked with a burning rage expression.

"Geez, don't get angry, okay, father-in-law?" Mineta shook his head helplessly.

"DON'T CALL ME YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW! I DON'T AGREE WITH THIS! I WON'T AGREE TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP NO MATTER WHAT!" Endeavor roared.

"Father!" Fuyumi was so embarrassed, and her face was burning red. As for Mineta, she didn't scold him since she knew that he just wanted to light up the mood, but if he was serious, she wondered what she should do.

'Well... it should be okay, right?'

When she thought about it, their age difference wasn't that much. She could also tell that Mineta' wasn't a bad guy, so everything would be okay, right?

If only she knew...

Still, even with the awkward atmosphere previously, Endeavour dragged Mineta out of his house. The thought of letting this beast live under the same roof as his daughter would make him go crazy from the stress.

Even if Todoroki's relationship with his father was bad, he also supported Endeavour since he also couldn't let Mineta stay in his house no matter what!

Only Bakugou was at ease, looking at the recipe notes that he received from Fuyumi. The taste of the dinner was good, and he wanted to try to recreate it. As for what was happening around him? He didn't care. Instead, he was happy that the Todoroki household was in trouble since even if he didn't show it on his face, he also held a slight grudge against Endeavour for pushing him to the limit. Watching Endeavour enraged every time made this trip to the Todoroki household worth it.

"Bye, Fuyu-nee!"

"Bye, Minoru-kun." Fuyumi also smiled as she waved her hand, watching Mineta being dragged by her father and little brother.

"Father-in-law, Shoto-kun, you don't need to drag me. I can walk by myself."

"I AM NOT YOUR FATHER-IN-LAW!"

"DON'T CALL ME SHOTO-KUN IN THIS TYPE OF SITUATION!"

Endeavor and Todoroki roared.

This time, the father and son worked together.

Still, after all of them entered the car, Endeavor and Todoroki sighed in relief since they knew that Fuyumi would be okay. However, they didn't know Mineta had exchanged a phone number with Fuyumi.

As he sat being sandwiched by Todoroki and Bakugou, Mineta leaned back in the comfy seat of the car. The happy dinner was only momentary, and tomorrow, he would continue with the internship. However, when he thought that his energy hadn't been released, he became depressed once again. When he wondered whether he should go after Burnin, the corner of his eyes twitched as he shouted, "Move the car to the right!"

In his mind, being a hero, his everyday life had always been extraordinary.
