Chapter 2: Her First Appearance At A Certain School.
It has been a week since Kamijou had learned that Fukiyose has been pregnant with their child. Because of that, he had to make up excuses to Index and Othinus about why he was always coming home late. He has been saying things such as not being able to pass his school works on time, having to help their teacher clean up their room, and not being able to avoid another rotten luck when in fact, he has been visiting the dormitory quarters of Fukiyose to help and stay with her for a while.
Another thing that he has on mind was about getting a lot of odd jobs just to support the two of them and to some extent, the two free loaders currently residing in his dormitory. Even though it wasn't that much big, Kamijou started to do some moonlighting-as a cook in their school. The pay seems to be decent enough to handle the Iron Wall Girl's medicine (though she can actually support herself as well) as well as having to handle Index and Othinus's food allowance. He also took some cut in his own food intake as he began to partake his personal allowance he receives from his parents to augment his living. His job as a cook is somewhat beginning to attract the attention of his every-caring friends and Tsuchimikado and one time, they even made fun of him for it by intentionally dropping a glass of water in his path.
Of course, that ended up so badly for Kamijou, who slipped while carrying a platter of left-over food destined on the garbage.
Such misfortune.
But of course, the two knew they can't hide it forever and they know that sooner or later, they'll have to eventually tell it to everyone that they are already young parents.
Which lead them to this situation-having to speak to Komoe by the end of the week where no one can see them.
It was already 5 in the evening when Komoe Tsukuyomi was already in her school lounge busy checking some papers. She was all alone in the office as Yomikawa had to attend some meeting in their Anti-Skill headquarters while the other teachers are having their own business as well. While checking, she was thinking how one of her students can work suddenly on the kitchen of the school. It's not that she wants to meddle but it was just strange watching him do so. Did Kamijou-chan had some financial problems? She didn't knew that some minutes from now, she was bound to find out.
Knock knock!
"Come in!" Komoe heard the door bang and so, she responded by opening the door. To her surprise, and utter shock, it was Kamijou and her long-lost student, Fukiyose.
"Kamijouc-chan, what made you come here?" Komoe first asked then shifter her sights to see that he wasn't alone. "Fu-Fukiyose-chan?! It's really you! Why aren't you coming to school, huh?! I'm worried about you! Did you manage to sort out-huh, why does it seems that you look a bit distressed? Is something wrong?" She eyed curiously as she saw the girl, in black slacks and large, white shirt bowing her head down.
"Ko-Komoe-sensei, we need to tell you something." Kamijou spoke steely. "And I wish nobody hears us."
"Okay, Kamijou-chan, what's the problem?" Komoe asked.
"Uhm...actually..I...we..." Kamijou was stuttering as he was struggling to bring up the truth in his tongue. But he did said it eventually. "Fukiyose is pregnant and I'm the father. We're young parents now."
Did I hear right?
"Kamijou-chan, you must be joking. Stop making such cruel-"
"I'm telling the truth, sensei." The spiky haired boy replied. "She's pregnant and I'm the father of her child. We needed to tell someone about it..."
All of the sudden, Komoe Tsukuyomi fainted, her face very pale in utter shock at the unexpected news that she heard from two of her dear students.
"No...this can't be..." The pinkette muttered as she fell down dramatically on the floor. Her soul had just left her body.
"Ko-Komoe-sensei!" Kamijou and Fukiyose both frantically screamed as the former bent down to try and revive their minute teacher, whose body seemed to be paralyzed.
As if a miracle from the skies has happened, the homeroom teacher woke up the same dramatic way that she fainted some minutes ago.
"Fu-Fu-Fu-Fukiyose-chan? How many weeks have you've been pregnant as of now?" Komoe asked in a stammering way.
"Four full weeks and soon, I would be a month pregnant." Fukiyose replied in a hushed tone as she knew she had disappointed not only her classmate but also her own teacher. "Komoe-sensei, it wasn't all planned at all..."
"What do you mean it wasn't planned?!" Komoe yelled, not even getting amused. "You two are both young to even have sex!"
"Sensel, we're sorry this should happen at this time. You see...it's not like we planned to have sex. Fukiyose...you see...we drank this "special drink" when we were having our study session and it did something funny to us." Kamijou put air quotes to emphasize what he was saying. "Still, I'm also at fault for not even double checking the substance."
They both hanged their heads in slight shame as Komoe, seeing their sad eyes, quite softened and her heart warmed.
"I-I see. There's nothing we can do about it now. Fukiyose-chan, I'll give you a maternity leave until the child is born. But in exchange, you'll still have to do your assignments and project and pass it to me via online or through Kamijou-chan. Komoe said as she then thought of something else. "Kamijou-chan, I suggest you stop working in the school kitchen."
"School kitchen? Kamijou..." Fukiyose looks at her male partner with wide eyes as she didn't expect that the boy she always brands as a lazy bum has been working his ass off to support the two of them.
"Well... Kornoe-sensei, how am I supposed to support the two of us then?" Kamijou asked in a distressed way. "My allowance isn't even enough for her and you know how Index eats up what little food I cook. I'm not even prepared to tell this to my parent yet. They'll kill me.."
"Fear not, Kamijou-chan, I decided to have you do free lancing for me. Instead of having to endure under work conditions in the kitchen, you'll have to transcribe, codify, and transliterate documents for me and for Yomikawa-chan." Komoe explained. "I'll pay you for every document that you work on. And mind you, that's a mountain load of documents. But it's better than having to endure the heat in the kitchen..."
"Thanks, Komoe-sensei. I'll take it then." Kamijou looks at Fukiyose. "For her sake."
Deep inside her, the Iron Wall Girl is slowly becoming flustered.
"Oh and about Kamijou-chan supporting Fukiyose-chan, how can you two possibly interact while living separately?" Komoe asked.
"I go home late at my dormitory." Kamijou replied truthfully.
"Kamijou-chan! You do know that there are a lot of bad influences and delinquents outside at night!" Komoe was frightened for the safety of her student. "That's it! Starting next week, you two will have to move then on an apartment close to mine! That way, you don't have to trouble yourself with Sister-chan while taking care of Fukiyose-chan! It's just a walking distance from where you are living..."
"Thanks but is that alright for you, sensei?" Kamijou asked, quite hesitant. "I mean, I'm basically freeloading and..."
"Your safety and health is more important so I decided this without any hesitation." Komoe confirmed. "Plus, the only thing you'll have to do for me is to do some work and you'll even get paid."
"Well...if you say so, sensei..."
"But in exchange, do tell me whether the baby's a boy or a girl!" Komoe suddenly switched to a livelier persona. "But I do prefer if it's a girl!"
"We'll tell you, Komoe-sensei. Arigatoul Fukiyose seemed a bit livelier as well as she bows in gratefulness.
"Well, I'll see you next week at school, Kamijou-chan. And Fukiyose-chan, please take care and don't slack off from your school works while on maternity leave." Komoe gave her last word.
"Yes ma'am." The two students replied and they went out of the room.
As the two then walk in the streets, Fukiyose looked up in the sky and suddenly said. "Neh, Kamijou, everything's going to be alright, yes?"
"I'm pretty sure there will be a good ending to this." Kamijou agreed, "Are you not tired? We'll just have to endure it. Komoe-sensei did offer us her place to live in until you finally give birth."
"Komoe-sensei's really nice to us." Fukiyose can't help but smile. "The only thing I wonder now is whose eye color our baby would get, my brown eyes or your dark blue eyes."
"Well, they do say that the most normal eye color here in Japan is black..." Kamijou commented offhandedly, earning himself a smack from the girl.
"So, you're saying that my eyes are abnormal?" Fukiyose shot him a glare, causing the male to flinch in fear.
"Well, nol What I'm saying is...well.......
"Think before you speak, idiot." Fukiyose facepalmed. "And you have dark blue eyes so you have no right to say anything. Plus, I wish our child wouldn't inherit your laziness. Can you just imagine mini-Kamijou lazing off in our house?"
Bad, woman. Seriously, you wounded my heart! Kamijou cringed. "But you know, you'll be a Kamijou someday too so I would appreciate if you stop insulting me..."
"What'd you say?!" Fukiyose was blushing as she heard what he said.
"Nothing! It just slipped in my tongue!"
-------‐-----------------------------------------------------
It was already past 7 pm when Kamijou Touma got home. Along the way, he and Fukiyose had to buy some medicines and food stuffs for him to cook for Index and Othinus. He didn't need to buy more stocks since he knew he and those two freeloaders with him will go to another apartment anyway by Monday morning so it's pretty much pointless.
He entered his dorm, which was pretty much dead silent. Hmmm. I wonder what those two are up to. They would be usually watching television.
As he entered his dormitory room, he spotted Index actually playing her favourite Magical Powered Kanamin video game and that she put on headsets to be able to focus better. He also spotted Othinus watching besides her. He then went straight to the kitchen where he can start preparing and cooking their food. In less than an hour, he was able to prepare their dish and the fragrant aroma of ginger and garlic reached the nostrils of a certain whiter-haired nun, who quickly removed her headpiece and went straight to the kitchen.
"Touma...I smell food!"
"Hey, Index. Food's ready and you can eat. Kamijo replied as he lays out the food in the dining table. Thirty minutes later, Index and Othinus has already gobbled up all the foodstuff in the table as Kamijou was busy feeding Sphynx, the Calico cat. After that, he then cleared his throat and inhaled as he knew what he would say would be some sort of a test of courage for him. I had to do it, though. It's better than having her discover it later.
"Index! Othinus! I have an important announcement!" Kamijou said as he rubs his hands. "You see, this is quite an important announcement that it might affect our lives!"
Index seemed hear him out. "Touma, what is that important thing that you say?"
"Well.." Kamijou was choosing his words carefully, "How do I say it? Hnnnnh... Index, Othinus, would it be fine if we will all move to another apartment near Komoe-sensei's? You see..."
"Huh...why?" Index was taken aback by the sudden decision her partner just made, "What's wrong?"
"It's just that, something came up and..."
"Hey, what happened?" Index interrupted him, "Toumal Is something wrong again?!"
"Uh...no Index, Kamijou was now sweating as he realized this is harder now than he expected. On hindsight, he should have expected it. It's her, after all. "One of my classmate has been pregnant and I have been forced to take care of her. He twisted it a little. "That's why we're moving in a little bit...hehehe..."
"I-I see," Index nodded, then suddenly realized something. "Wait, why can't your teacher take care of her instead?! Why does it have to be you?"
"Well...you see," Kamijou stammered, not anticipating this question coming from the nun, "She's pregnant and...no one would want to take care of her and...well...I can cook food for her..."
"By the way you talk human, it seemed that you have something to do with her getting pregnant." Off all times she had to drop the bomb shell, Othinus couldn't have chosen a more convenient time as she seemed to have cornered the spiky haired boy.
"Wha-What are you talking about?!" Kamijou denied it rather hilariously, "If only she didn't make me drink that aphrodisiac, none of it would have happened..."
Suddenly, he realized that he had said too much and quickly zipped up.
Too bad, Index heard all of it though.
"So, you're admitting you're the one who caused it?" Othinus snarled, somewhat displeased, "So you're a father now, human?"
"Uh...yeah..." Kamijou answered with a slight hint of uncertainty and hoplessness. "You could say that is the case right now..."
"Touma..."
Kamijou froze at the voice of Index, who was mysteriously smiling at her as her aura began to darken.
Shit... I'm dead....
"Touma...what did I tell you about fornication? It's a sin against the Almighty Father..." Index grinned maniacally as she bares her sharp fangs. Kamijou's instincts told him to run away as fast as he can.
And that's what he did.
"Index! I can explain!" Kamijou yelled as he began to ran for the bathroom. Index was chasing at him, hungry for blood.
"Toumaaaaal"
