Chapter 6
Makoto Naegi was given a small bag and a small apartment provided by unknown benefactor.
He put some clothes and snacks along with some documents provided for identity.
He wasn't sure whether to be relieved or concerned that some people were helping him without giving a reason,and his luck could get really good or bad from here.
He heard a knock on his hospital room's door.
"Hai"he called out.
The door opened and he smiled on seeing his guest,the girl with long black hair in some sort of superhero costume.
"Hey Naegi!"she greeted"I heard you were being discharged today,it seems like I got here just in time."
They stood staring at each other which became awkward before finally she realised he probably didn't understand her.
But he broke the silence by raising his hand towards his bed.
"Dozo wo suwari kudasai,Marvel-san"he offered.
She understood his hand gesture and sat down.
There was few moments of silence.
"Arigatou"she said with a heavy accent.
"Hai?"he asked,not sure what she meant and for what reason did she say that.
She sighed
"I learned to say thank you but I still can't convey my thoughts"
She slowly reached her hands to her head and took off her mask.
He was surprised by this as he felt it was something she wasn't supposed to do,secret identity or something like that.
"I'll get an earful if my team find out about this"she said to herself,aware it's too late to regret it now.
She turned towards him and pointed to herself.
"Kamala Khan"she slowly pronounced her name so he could understand.
"Kama.. ra"he tried her name before understanding.
"Kamala-san"he said.
He just felt by instinct that she is placing her trust in him regarding her secret identity.
He made a fist and brought it close to his chest.
"Anata no himitsu wa anzendesu,Marvel-san"
It seemed to her that he understood and had an understanding.
"Don't rat me out,OK?"she said half-jokingly.
