As soon as the brunette arrived home, he greeted his mother (and everyone else in the house for that matter), and made his way to his bedroom. Tsuna dropped his bag on its usual spot before tiredly lying down on his bed. Eyes closed, he stretched his arms as a loud yawn left his mouth. "Yaaaaaaawn—hiiiee!?" As soon as his eyes opened, he found his baby tutor standing on his stomach, watching him with that smile he knew meant something he didn't like if he didn't get up from the bed.

"Napping so soon, dame-Tsuna?"

"Reborn!" He yelped, quickly sitting up just as the tutor jumped back. "I'm up! I'm up!"

"Good," Reborn said, watching his student calming down from the shock. "You have something to do, don't you?" Tsuna should know what he meant.

Tsuna huffed, ready to sigh, until he caught Reborn who still had that glint in his eyes saying 'no complaints or else'. He held his breath, and exhaled through his nose. "Better start with the easier one I guess," He mumbled as he slipped off he bed and opened the laptop on his desk. "I have to email a pen-pal for English class." He explained to Reborn as he went to the type his email for Enma.

Maybe this isn't the easier one.

Five minutes have passed and Tsuna was still staring at the blinking line and blank space. "T-This is so hard." He sulked, hanging his head down with a look of distress. Writing in English is one thing, but writing to a girl he's never met before is another. He didn't want to particular start on his Math homework either, so it was either he does this or the other. He definitely preferred this one.

Reborn watched him since he's started, and ultimately concluded Tsuna was going to get nowhere for today if he didn't give him ideas. "Still nothing?" Reborn jumped on the desk, and gazed at the empty message space. Well, if talking to a girl was his problem, he can help—

Without using the Dying Will Bullet, of course.

"Well for starters, shouldn't you introduce yourself first?"

Tsuna blinked, turning his head to Reborn. "R-Right," He said, a mental slap on his forehead for not considering doing that soon. Still, he was lost for words: English words, to be specific. "Well, this is for practice." He mumbled under his breath as he finally began typing to his pen-pal.

Dear Enma,

Hello! I am Tsunayoshi Sawada. You can call me Tsuna! I grabbed your name so I guess this means
we're pen-pals from now on, right? I hope to improve my English with you. I'm very bad at it.
In fact, I hope you understand what I'm trying to say here. It's nice to meet you!

At least that's what he thought he was writing.

Finishing his short, well-thought out message, he read it once more before clicking send. As soon as he saw the word 'Sent!' he felt his stomach churn from the nervousness. Was it supposed to feel like this?

Reborn smiled. "That wasn't so hard was it?"

"Yes it was."

After finishing his math homework (no thanks to Reborn) and having dinner with the family, Tsuna and Reborn returned to the bedroom. All the way from the door, Tsuna could see an icon blinking from the screen.

(1) New Email/s!

"Look!" He hurried to his laptop and clicked on the email. "She replied!"

Dear Tsuna-kun,

It's nice to meet you too! You can call me Enma. It's okay if your English is bad. I can still understand it.
I'm still working on mine too. Talking to each other would help a lot. Let's be good friends?

Tsuna can't believe that his pen-pal replied that fast! What more, he can't believe he understood what she was trying to say— Enma's English seemed much better than his, obviously. Still, it was a relief that she seemed nice and willing to talk to him despite the broken English. He even felt unusually happy.

His next message didn't take too long to type like the first, though still with slight difficulty, deleting words and phrases. Difference is, Tsuna was smiling as he typed the message down.

Dear Enma,

Thank goodness! I'd definitely like to be friends! I'm surprised that you even understood what I was trying to say there.
If you've only seen my grades in English... It's nothing to be proud of.

Reborn, being the watcher, smiled a bit too. "I agree."

"Reborn!"
