Born as Gojo Satoru Cousin

Chapter 280: Nakano Itsuki, the Intern Teacher



6:45 PM.

"Ah, I'm so tired. This is the first time the restaurant has been this busy since it opened, right?"

Nino sighed, rubbing her weary shoulders, lamenting how busy the day had been.

"I think I know why."

Miku glanced at Eiji, who was washing dishes.

"You feel it too? Well, it's obvious. After all, most of the customers are women. They probably heard about Kamiki from their friends, that's why so many women are coming. Huh, shallow women."

"Nino, you have no right to say that. Have you forgotten how you used to act like them?"

"That's all in the past, don't bring it up again! I've changed, okay? You know that."

Nino glared at Miku, not wanting Eiji to know about her embarrassing past.

She didn't want to give off the bad impression that she judged men by their appearance.

"Mm. The five of us have become better individuals. It's all thanks to Fuutarou."

There was a hint of sadness in her voice when Miku said that. Even though she had given up, it didn't mean her feelings of liking him disappeared just like that.

"Miku, Nino~ make me something to eat... I'm hungry."

The door was opened by a woman who looked similar to the two of them. She was one of the Nakano quintuplets, Nakano Itsuki.

"All we have left are the sandwich ingredients. Wait a minute, I'll make it."

Seeing her looking exhausted and unenthusiastic, Miku prepared a large amount of sandwiches, remembering Itsuki's voracious appetite.

Meanwhile, Eiji turned to look at the newcomer.

'So that's Nakano Itsuki. The quintuplets have identical body shapes and faces, only their hairstyles and accessories differentiate them.'

'To be able to give birth to five children at once, their mother is truly amazing.'

After observing Itsuki for a while, Eiji found some striking differences compared to Miku and Nino.

Itsuki had long hair that reached her bottom, had ahoge strands like antennas on her head, wore glasses, and had star accessories on both sides of her hair. If looked more closely, she seemed slightly fatter than Nino and Miku, with visible fat bulges on her stomach and thighs.

"...?"

Women are very sensitive to stares on their bodies, and Itsuki was no exception, even though she was a bit thickheaded.

"That man... Could he be the man we talked about before?"

Seeing Eiji's back, Itsuki couldn't see his face. Of course, she only knew a little about him when Nino discussed this topic in the family chat group.

"That's right. He's the man Miku found lying behind the restaurant." Nino replied lightly.

"Is he really amnesiac?" Itsuki said in a low voice.

"It's hard to believe, right? Turns out amnesia isn't a fictional disease, but actually exists!"

"That's so pitiful..."

Itsuki felt sympathy for Eiji.

"Eat while it's hot." Miku placed a plate with five sandwiches in front of Itsuki.

"Itadakimasu~!"

Putting her two hands together, Itsuki, who was already starving, ate ravenously.

"Slow down, Itsuki, or you'll choke." Nino said helplessly.

"Nom... Nom... Miku's sandwiches are so delicious!"

With her cheeks puffed up like a hamster, Itsuki spoke while eating.

"Nino-san, the dishes are washed. Is there anything else I can do?"

While wiping his hands with a tissue, Eiji approached.

"Cough... Cough... Cough..."

Itsuki's eyes widened and she choked when she saw Eiji's face.

Even for her, who wasn't interested in romantic relationships because she was pursuing her dreams, it had to be acknowledged that the young man in front of her was not only handsome, but also had a unique aura that could captivate women's hearts.

"I told you, don't eat in a hurry!"

"Itsuki, drink some water."

Nino shook her head, while Miku brought a glass of water.

"Gulp... Gulp... Phew~... I'm safe..."

Relieved, Itsuki patted her chest, which was slightly more plump than Nino and Miku's.

"There are no customers, take a break. You must be tired after working all day."

"Not at all, I'm still in top shape."

"Anyway, you have some free time. Play on your phone or something."

"Okay."

Not knowing what to do, Eiji followed Nino's suggestion, sat down on one of the empty chairs, and started playing on his phone.

"What's wrong with you, Itsuki? Your reaction is so strange, do you know Kamiki?" Nino asked suspiciously.

"No no no, you're misunderstanding, Nino. It's just that I was surprised that he looks better than you described in the group chat."

Itsuki hastily waved her hands and denied it. She didn't want the love war from high school to happen again. Therefore, she didn't want Nino to misunderstand that she liked Eiji.

"By the way, how's your job, Itsuki? Is everything going smoothly? If anything happens, just tell us." Miku changed the subject.

"No problem. Everything's going well. Even though there are some problematic students, overall they are all good students."

Itsuki's dream since childhood was to be a teacher like her mother. After graduating from college, she applied to a co-ed high school in Tokyo. Currently, she is still an intern teacher.

"At first, I thought teachers just taught in class, gave assignments, and checked test results. But in reality... a teacher's job is more than that, much busier than I imagined."

"Tell us more."

Hearing Itsuki's complaints, Nino wanted to know more, Miku listened silently beside her.

"So, teachers in Japanese high schools are really exhausting. Besides teaching, I have to prepare materials every day, make sure all the students understand, and pay attention to their development. But that's not all. Teachers also have to attend school meetings, make reports about each student, deal with parents who sometimes have complaints or special requests, and supervise extracurricular clubs." Itsuki explained while eating.

Miku furrowed her brow, trying to imagine the burden.

"So you have to stay at school longer because you're taking care of the club?"

"That's right." Itsuki answered with a tired nod.

"If I supervised a club, I wouldn't be able to go home on time. For example, yesterday some students asked me to be their club supervisor. But I refused because I'm still an intern and feel the responsibility is too great. Look, I've lost a few pounds because of work."

"Just a few pounds? That's not much." Nino couldn't speak.

"Oh, right. I have to continue checking the students' test papers. They have to be finished tomorrow."

Remembering something important, Itsuki opened her bag and took out a stack of test papers. Then, she began to seriously check them carefully.

Nino and Miku looked at each other, both with a silent understanding, not speaking so as not to disturb Itsuki.

15 minutes later, Eiji got bored playing on his phone. Since his work hours were over, he wanted to ask permission to go out for a walk. He accidentally glanced at Itsuki who was working, then he pointed at the test papers Itsuki was checking.

"This part is wrong."

"Eh?"

Raising her head, Itsuki was stunned for a moment.
