"You seem frustrated" Shoko points out once Utahime entered the apartment "Maybe a bit" she said before jumping on the couch

She sat there with her eyes closed but once she opened her eyes, she sees Shoko looking at her

"So are you gonna tell me?" Utahime shrugged and stood up "Come on Utahime. You know I'm always interested in the dumb shit that happens in your job" Utahime chuckles

"Ok sure" Shoko smiled and told her to sit beside her "So I entered the office of Gojo to try and annoy him as he didn't visit me.." She recapped everything that happened to Shoko

"Yeah you were in the wrong" Utahime groaned "Yeah... Maybe" Shoko chuckled

"Maybe? You got mad at Gojo for giving you a break" Shoko responded "Him saying I had a problem made me..." Utahime cut herself off to think about what to say

"Your confidence got hurt?" Utahime nodded "I mean it kind of seemed like you did" Shoko said making Utahime chuckle

"You came home once at 10 pm, and one time at midnight" Utahime realized that she was in the wrong, which made her guilty "It's clear you have a problem" Shoko said

"I got mad at Gojo for being a good boss" Shoko clasped her hands "Exactly" Utahime facepalmed

"I mean I get it" Shoko said,patting Utahime's back "When I became head of the clinic, I wanted to prove people I truly deserved it" Utahime nodded in agreement

"But I realized that I didn't have to prove my peers anything, because I knew I was doing good" Utahime groaned

"I'm so dumb" Shoko laughed making Utahime chuckle "I forgot my birthday.. and now this" Utahime leaned back and sighed

"Also the shoes he gave are amazing" Shoko said pointing at her feet "Yeah... Also very comfortable" Utahime described

"I think you should apologize" Shoko said "Yeah.. but approaching Gojo in a serious manner is still so weird to me" She snickers

"Don't you want to be the bigger man, be mature?" Shoko asked and Utahime smiled "Wow you're pulling out all of your tricks to convince me" The two laugh

"But truly though, why don't you want to apologize? You know you're in the wrong" Shoko asked and Utahime shrugged "Pride, I guess. Also kind of embarrassing to apologize to someone like Gojo" Utahime explained before standing up

"Ok.. I'll go and talk to him" Shoko looked at her in surprise "Right now? It's kind of late" Shoko asked and Utahime nodded

"My conscience is eating me out. I'll just go so it'll stop" Utahime explained and Shoko looked at her and chuckled "Ok whatever, don't stay too late" Shoko winked and Utahime rolled her eyes

"See ya later" Shoko said before Utahime exited their apartment and went out to the cold sidewalk and shuddered

"Why did I do this?" Utahime asked herself before groaning "I should've brought a thicker jacket" Utahime pointed out before briskly walking to the direction of Gojo's house

She arrived and looked at the obnoxious sign that says "Gojo's house" with an arrow with a big light

"Why did I expect less?" Utahime asked herself with a big sigh before knocking on the front door

"Hello?" Gojo asked after opening the door to see Utahime with an awkward smile
