Oh god oh wow I just heard something I shouldn't!
I can't believe my lie at the end worked!
Now to see how I can approach them about that!
Okay, calm down, they don't know that I know.
I don't think she used whatever method she used to figure out Genso-san on me yet.
I wonder what their powers are!
OH! I can invite them to my club!
So excited!
Okay calm down!
Wait, what about that kiss at the end?
Are they really...
"YAAAAAAAAA-!" I have to put my hand up to my mouth to stop the scream.
"Are you okay mi-" Huh, a foreigner. Not many of them around these parts.
"Stand back! Civilian! I am on an emergency quest!"
"Err..." He flinches and backs off at my respond. Works every time.
A-Anyways I need to get home quickly!
"I'm home!" Luckily I live not too far from school
"Sumi-chan! How is school today? Wait, is that a blush I see on your face?"
"Uh... mom, I heard the weirdest thing at school today."
"Ooh! Did a boy confess to you?" I have to stare at her for a few seconds. She knows that I don't like interacting with them. Or anyone, for that matter, they'd find out about me sooner or ter.
"R-Right, my mistake. So, what happened?"
I retell the conversation between Maria-san and Genso-san to mom1I ain't gonna use okaa-san., and she agrees that it was not ordinary.
We sit down on the dining table for dinner, father is te, as usual.
"I think you should invite them to that club of yours, Sealing Club, was it? It would be much easier to bring up the topic, too."
"I already though of that... but how do I ask them without rousing suspicion?"
"Why does this bother you? You will tell them as soon as they join, no?"
"Well... It just feels unnatural, somehow. Me suddenly proactively interracting with not one, but TWO new human being."
"Oh, so you are afraid that your guise would fall off. Not to worry about that, just ask at a time and pce simir to how you discovered them today."
"But then... that kiss..."
"Uh... I'm out of my depth on this one. Maybe they thought you are a normal person, or they really like each other, or they are experiementing with this kind of retionship."
"Mmmm... It was so shocking it imprinted itself on my mind!"
"I can imagine that."
We finish our meal talking about telekinesis and its' application in daily life if human kind was more accepting of the paranormal phenomena that certain people have.
Honestly, life would be much easier if we are allowed to use our power in daily life.
Sadly, the st one to do that was a few hundred years away and is now a myth, a legend, or a fairy tale.
Either way, that won't stop us from day dreaming!
"I won't even need to use the stair! More space for everything else!"
"I won't need to stand up to get the remote for him!"
"Mom, why are you still married to father?" I do have, as they say, "daddy issue". Actually more like issues with my father figure, if he can even be called that.
Jerk.
"The social pressure, Sumi-chan. I have enough frustration as is hiding my ESP, I don't need more about people cursing me behind my back."
"Don't this count as stress already? If you stay with him, wouldn't that be a longer time you have to put up with it?"
"It's more complicated than that, sweetie. Now, don't you have homework to do?"
I do, in fact, have homework to do.
"We're not done with this conversation!"
"Yes, yes." Mom sighs. She knows I will bring this up again tomorrow, when he isn't home.
Homework is a breeze. I have the pens scribbling away as quick as I can think.
ESP is just too convenient to not use discreetly.
Using an abacus is extremely satisfying. The clicks and ccks are like music to my ears.
With everything I do at the speed of thoughts, I finish homework not long after father comes home.
Well there goes my calm.
To minimize my time in direct eyesight of him, I bolt to the bathroom as fast as a reasonable human can.
Then I stayed in there for 4 minutes 48 seconds, the most I can stay inside without annoying him.
Then I throw a quick "goodnight" at no one in particur.
And jump on my bed and do my best impression of a corpse.
...
He hasn't come knocking yet. Great!
While my eyes are closed, my heart is still beating quite fast from all the running, and my mind is occupied with the scene. I can't stop thinking about it!
Uwaaaaaaa...
Calm down, Sumireko, let's just py around with the cards.
Shuffle shuffle shuffle shuffle...
Draw one, two, three.
Reversed Star, reversed Charriot, and reversed Hermit.
Oh.
I guess Maria-san was serious about her being lonely after all?
And Genso-san... but she was so... what is her like again? I actually never noticed her other than for the dodgeball thing...
Hmm, thoughts.
Well, that one divination left me with enough tiredness to knock me out, so I'll ju-
zzzzz
Aueh? The sun is up already?
