It's been a week since Gojo visited Shoko's home, and he's happy Utahime's mood has gotten way better since then

He's still curious what happened, but he has no right to care anyway.

He finishes up some paperwork before exiting his office and walking to someone's office

As he pushed the door open, he immediately sees Utahime's unamused eyes staring at him, he smirks

"Will this really be a daily thing?" Gojo smiles and nods "This face will bless you every afternoon" she throws a pen at his face, which he catches

"You know you like it, Utahime~" he teases before she shakes her head furiously "I'd rather see the intestines of a rat" Gojo laughs

"You're gonna miss this face when I die"

"You're saying that like it'll happen soon" She chuckles before opening her drawer "Well you'll never know" he says before throwing the pen back at her

She doesn't catch because she was organizing her drawer. She put her head up and looked at him

"You really threw it at me at that time"

"I doubt you would've caught it even if" He says and chuckles "You know I would've-" She gets cut off as Gojo threw another pen at her

She wasn't able to catch it because she was busy talking

"Told you" He turns around and was about to leave "That wasn't fair!" She shouted before he exited the office and didn't close the door

"Gojo!" She said and pointed at her door "I'm joking... I'll close the door" He says before closing the door and jogging to the break room

"Boss" Yuji knocks at the door "It's the break room Yuji, just enter" Gojo chuckles before grabbing his jelly beans from the vending machine

"So... Nobara wants to go audition for a modelling job, could you tell her to not do it?" Gojo looks at him in confusion "Why would I?" Yuji scratches his cheek

"Well, I don't really want her to leave" Gojo stood up and approached him. He put a hand on his shoulder "I understand that you are friends with her, but sometimes you just have to be supportive" Yuji looks at him

"Let me tell you a story, but first sit down" He says before they sit across from each other

"You know Utahime, our new co-manager. When she asked me for a recommendation letter for team leader in Kyoto" He started his story, and Yuji listened to him closely

"I really considered messing up the recommendation because I didn't want her to leave, but I didn't... You get the story?" Yuji nods "Don't stop people from trying to do their dream" Yuji says and runs out of the break room

"Not only regular people though. It should be people we care for. Ehh whatever he got the gist of it anyway" He says to himself before eating a gummy bear

What he didn't know was someone was listening to him, Utahime sighed and smiled "Maybe I was too cruel to you before Gojo." She says to herself before walking to her office

As she was finishing her day. She tried to stop thinking about what he said, and the things he has said to her since she arrived. She blushes and smirks before she got startled by someone snapping their fingers

"Why you blushing, Utahime~?" Gojo teases and approaches her "Umm... nobo- nobody" He leans closer to her which makes her blush more

"Good thing you're finally falling in love" Utahime looked at him and started waving her hands in denial "I'm not falling in love" Gojo chuckled

"Don't be emberrassed, falling in love is good. I definitely thought you would die alone" Utahime looked at him with an annoyed face "What does that mean?" She asks, offended

"Well whenever I asked you if you liked anyone, you said you'd rather die alone than fall in love" Utahime looks at him in confusion before remembering

"Well that still holds up because I haven't fallen in love" Gojo scoffed "If you say so" he says before exiting the office

"I'm not lying!" She shouts hoping he would hear but he was already too far away

"Me? In love? Ridiculous!" She says before finishing her work
