The fading afternoon light spills across the rows of empty desks, painting the room in gold and shadow. Nobara stares from you to Megumi and back again, her mouth agape. "You’re telling me our new teacher is your mom?" she exclaims. Megumi nods once, his eyes fixed on the floor, the tips of his ears turning pink. Yuji swivels in his seat, leaning in with undisguised curiosity. "And Gojo-sensei is your dad?" he asks. Megumi rubs his forehead, sighing quietly. You remain at the front of the class, a composed smile touching your lips, the memory of that distant, brutal day—and the two small children you and Gojo brought home—settling in your chest. You catch the protective glance Megumi sends your way and wonder what he will choose to say next.
