We all lack something.

"This is exceptionally good... but a bit too sweet." Unohana reviews the best ice cream in the world.

"My grandparent said something similar too. You just can't appreciate the taste." I reply to Unohana's thoughts.

'How do I get out of this mess! Only the insane would pretend to be a gojo, plus, she does have white hair which most gojo's have. According to the records anyway.'

"Want me to introduce you to favourite place of mine?" Unohana asks.

'This could be a trap but in order to act normal I have to go along with it.'

"Sure. Just let me finish this quick."

Scene Change: Swords and More!

"You really like swords don't ya?"

"Yes I do Kagat."

I'm watching Unohana dance with a wooden sword provided by the museum. Her strikes are as fluid as water and as quick as lightning.

"You're amazing at this." I'm genuinely amazed at her skills.

"I know." She gives me a smug smirk in return. My stomach turns up.

"It's for my technique anyway." 'Is she trying to bait me into messing up?'

"What technique?" I ask.

"Tell me yours first." She stops practicing her swings and stares at me. With those cold blue eyes.

"A technique that I don't have. I don't really use weapons of any sort." I confidently respond.

"You sure. Kagat?" She asks me again.

'I'm getting a bit nervous now. Make something up quick.'

"Why would I not be?" Affer saying that I look around the museum dedicated to swords. 'The creator really loved them.' Swords from over 700 years ago were all on display. Perhaps even longer too.

"Alright." She frowns, clearly unhappy.

I feel a bit bad now.

"Perhaps I can create one with you?" I grin at her surprised face.

"You could try." She shrugs her shoulders as she says this. And so I try to replicate Gojo's sword skills for over an hour. I fail miserably.

Outside...

"HHAAAHHAAHAAAA!" Unohana keeps laughing at me. Unfairly.

"Stop laughing! It's not my fault I slipped."

I eagerly try to defend my pride.

"Yes it is. Hehehe." Her body keeps shaking violenty. I look at the ground and wait for her to calm down.

After a few minutes.

"So sorry darling. But. Hehe!" She quickly shuts her mouth and then looks at me with her sparkling eyes. 'I like this better.'

"Right. Anyway what do you want to do now?" I put my finger to my lip and think over her question.

"Wait don't you need to be somewhere else. Like at home. It is nearly night." I look up to see parts of the sky are darker than others.

"... oh you're right." Her voice and demeanour now seems more disappointed compared to her boisterous laughter moment's ago.

"I can com- nevermind." 'Damn almost caught myself there.'

"Maybe we can meet again sometime." I look away from her as I say this. 'I ready shouldn't be doing this but...I kinda find this girl interesting.'

I don't hear a response. I start playing with my hair. Still no response. I tug my hair a bit tighter.

"Maybe we can meet here again next week. Saturday perhaps. Same time as now." Her voice is soothing to my ears.

"Yeah." I let out a happy smile.

After seeing her go to wherever. I'm left alone with my thoughts. 'That was so fun! I can't wait to meet her again. Who can I play with now?'

I stay there for a while sitting on my ice cream bench. 'Who would I go to now.....?'

It takes a while but I finally realise something.

'I literally have zero friends.'

My expression is beyond description.

Grandpa pov:

'How am I going to tell Sachi about this?' I pace around the living room. 'She'll probably miss me when I leave for Italy. I just have to see how it goes.'

A few hours later....

'Where is she. This is taking too long I should go out and look for her.'

My ears perk up. 'Sachi is home.' I quickly turn to the door. In a few seconds I see her looking down on the ground. 'She seems sad but this is more important.'

"Sachi." She tilts her head to show she is listening. "I'll be away for few weeks perhaps it'll even go to a month or more." She nods then looks up at me. Her eyes are questioning.

"Well...' I think of how to word this. "I'll be doing something that's better for the family." My voice sounds shaky. Even Sachi seems completely unconvinced but thankfully she does not comment on it.

She climbs the stairs up to her room. I let out a nervous breath I didn't even know I was holding. 'This is better for both of us.'

Scene Change:

I'm outside the airport about to board my flight when a few thoughts cross my mind.

'Januma. Should I tell Sachi about him when I come back? No. When he's already dead there is no point in telling her about him.'

I board my flight and notice that my chest feels heavier than before. 'I wonder why?'

Sachi pov:

"Hehehe." I think back to Unohana. I hug my pillow tighter to my face. "Eheheh. I think I'm in love." I throughly enjoyed today. I enjoyed connecting with more people.

'I have talked to the people at the Gardening Center but literally all of them are old. They also keep squishing my cheeks. I do like them though since they mean well.'

Eventually, I let go of the pillow and let it drop to the floor. 'What was up with Grandpa though? He's hiding a secret from me. Then again whatever it is doesn't concern me.'

More importantly, I have plans to make. "Hehehe." I start to giggle again.

Unohana pov:

"Where were ya cuz?" I pretend I didn't hear that and continue to walk away. 'I just want to meet Kagat again.' A grin spreads along my face. 'I want to know her secrets.'

"Come on cuz." The voice is barely a foot away. 'I can't pretend again.'

I turn around and respectfully bow.

"Greetings to the blessed child."

I can practically hear his smug look.

"So where did you go?"

"To my usual sword museum." I respond.

"I heard you were at the Jujutsu Library." He questions me.

"That was before."

He is silent for a while until he leaves to do more training.

"See you soon. Let's spar again sometime."

I do my best to hide the mocking look on my face.

'Spar? Even if I won that would do horrible damage to me and could possible get me kicked out of the clan. Annoying bastard.'

I take a few deep breaths to calm myself before heading to my room.

"Unohana we are training more in a hour. Hurry up and stop going to that worthless museum." It was my father's voice.

I respectfully nod to him and go to my room. My eyebrow twitches. My body relaxes in my private area. 'I really wish he would just die sometimes.'

I sit down on the smooth floor. 'That girl. I wanted to find out your secrets but now.' I think about everyone I know in the clan.

"I think I just want you around."
