My p.o.v.
"Yo! How did the training go with Nezu?" Mic greets as I walk into the cafe.
Rubbing my arm I laugh feeling like absolute shit. "I'd like to say I totally kicked ass but I'd be lying. He had AllMight and Eraser plus him coming at me to push me. I got my ass handed to me…." rubbing my face and looking away as I mumble into my hand. "And went a bit too far."
Shaking it off I made my way towards the kitchen to get whatever was burning. "Thanks for watching the shop for me I'm going to try hiring some help."
Malik trots over to the bed under the table in the back that I had gotten for here seems it was only me normally.
Mic laughs waving me off before heading upstairs making me suspect that my kitchen was trashed from his look.
Swinging open the door my eye twitched, the sink was overflowing with dishes and every counter space was caked with food and pots were overflowing onto the stove.
Sighing I was glad there weren't many people here.
Just as I was finishing cleaning off the stove I hear the bell chimes notifying me that someone was coming in.
"Welcome!" I call walking out wiping my hands on my apron blinking at who just came in before smirking. "Oh this is perfect…" walking to a table by the window was none other than Mitsuki Bakugo.
I had been wondering how to find the boy but if I could do so through his mother that would work perfectly, I was gonna make the little shit behave and ego check him.
"Hello miss, what may I get you to drink to get you started?" I ask as I stand next to her.
She blinks up taking the menu. "Just some coffee, my son and husband will be joining me shortly."
"Oh would you like me to wait for them then?" I question setting down two more menus.
She flips it open glancing around seems there were only two other people here with how early it was. "No it's alright they'll be here shortly...do I know you from somewhere? I swear I've seen you before."
Chuckling nervously. "Oh...no we haven't actually met...I was on the news a while back it was a very rough week...that's probably why. But please know someone had used their quirk on me."
She snaps her fingers pointing at me. "Ah! The one who threw AllMight!! My son was livid that day!" her laughter surprises me. "Oh you should have heard how angry he was that some rando just upped and tossed his hero like it was nothing!"
I couldn't help but smile. She was such a wild card just like her son. "Well I'm going to go get that coffee for you."
I walk towards the machines and start pouring a cup of coffee and gathering some cream and sugar hearing the door open behind me.
"What kind of dump is this? What the hell? Those aren't desserts from here...hey old hag why'd you have to chose this shitty place?"
My eye twitches, I had just paid a good amount of money to get new tables and floors and wall paper and just a face-lift in general to make it more modern than it had been.
Walking over to the table and basically slamming down the bowl of sugar and cream I tower over the seated male.
"Listen here little boy, you best watch how you speak to your mother and about my shop or else."
Mitsuki leans on her hand watching us with a smirk while her husband was looking between the three of us.
Bakugo raises his hand, small explosions going off in his hand. "Was that a threat lady?"
Looking him in the eyes I grab the exploding hand and smack him with it. "I don't threaten children but I will make them mind their manners."
I was slightly surprised that Mitsuki was allowing this but then again she did want her son to be ego checked. "So you little pomeranian must be a teenager, let me guess finishing out middle school? "
I had released his hand and was standing arms crossed watching him. I hadn't realized at the commotion Malik had gotten up and was at my side baring his little teeth at Bakugo.
"What the old lady tell you that?" He growls out baring his teeth looking down.
Raising an eyebrow I follow his look to see Malik.
"Oh don't worry baby he's all bark. Back to bed." I say giving him a pat and flipping him around giving him a soft nudge to get him moving.
Malik trudge back to his bed huffing and glaring at Bakugo which was amusing to me.
"Bakugo this is the person you said you'd kill for tossing AllMight. I'm surprised you didn't recognize her." Mitsuki comments sipping her coffee.
Bakugo's head snaps to his mother then me.
I rub my face. "I'm never going to live that down...I was under emotional distress…."
Shaking my head I pull out my notepad. "Ok what will it be?"
"Like hell you're dropping the subject! How did you do it? That hit made it look like you were swatting a fly yet four blocks were destroyed in that one hit." Bakugo says standing hands slammed on the table.
"Look kid if you wanna talk hero stuff and what happened it'll have to wait. I have food cooking and other customers that you seem to be disturbing. So take a seat and if you want to talk the three of you would be welcome to visit later today." I compromise hearing my timer chime from the kitchen.
He sits back down crossing his arms looking unhappy about it but shut up.
I quickly go back wash my hands and turn off the heat for the rice I had been making. It was still strange to me to be making soups, fish, rice and other things for breakfasts but I was getting used to it.
I bring out the other tables food apologizing for the ruckus and told them they could choose a pastry from the display on the house.
Going back to the Bakugos I take their order and begin making their food.
The bell chimes and when I peak out the window I see a black haired kid.
"Kirishima? Has the scar and shark teeth…" I mutter wiping my hands on the towel.
Walking back out I smile welcoming him. "Welcome, go ahead and sit anywhere."
He grins walking over to the counter. "Hello, actually I'm here about the job posting? I know I'm a bit young but I'm man enough and am a good worker."
Trying to remember the law I just learned about kids working I take the paper he held out.
He had filled out the application and had a parent signature that looked different than his hand writing. "Well I'm going to have to double check the law about kids working but if that checks out we can do an interview. Sound ok?"
He grins nodding. "Sounds great! Thank you, I'm Enji Kirishima. My contact information is on the form though I have school so I may not be able to answer if I'm in class."
I nod. "Alright how bout I just message and you can get back to me."
"Sweet! Thanks Miss!" His excitement made me want to just hug him but I hold back.
"Just Sarah, I'll let you know. Here for the road." I say grabbing a chocolate muffin from the case and handing it over waving as he left.
I watch as he takes a bite, eyes widening before fist pumping and mowing down as he walks.
"So you have kids of your own?" Mitsuki asks as I walk over with their food.
I chuckle shaking my head. "Nope, had two younger siblings I took care of though."
"Well if you ever have kids they'll be lucky to have a mom like you. Though hopefully they're not brats like this one here." She says pointing at Bakugo who just grinds his teeth.
I set his plate in front of him before ruffling his hair. "He seems like a good kid, moody sure, but the look in his eyes...I know it well. Hope you enjoy your meals."
Going to the counter I look over the application while using the computer to look up child labor laws because back home they'd have to be sixteen with parents consent. But according to the laws here they could start working for reduced pay and a parents consent though when they turned sixteen the pay would go up to minimum wage and each year longer the pay would be raised.
"Hey kid, you're hiring right? Why not make my son your employee? He could use some discipline and I think it would do him good." Mitsuki says walking up to the counter as I filled out some paperwork that was needed by the suppliers.
My head snaps up as I blink at her not comprehending what she just said. "Huh?"
"Katsuki here is actually a decent cook and could help you out. What do you say?" She says, grabbing his head making him bow.
Masaru smiles and talks for the first time. "I agree a job would be good for him and he seems to respond well to you. Please, guide our son."
My mouth just drops as surprise just hits along with confusion. "What? You want me...someone you barely know...I'm not gonna be able to say no am I?"
Mitsuki grins leaning against the counter. "Not a chance."
Sighing I rub my face still very confused at what just happened. "Uh ok...he can start tomorrow afternoon I guess. Just come by after school."
"Great! Thanks for the food!" Mitsuki says loudly as Masaru pays for the food while Bakugo grumbles to himself.
Once they left I stood there watching the door, luckily there wasn't anyone else in the shop. "What the fuck just happened? I just met the two and now they work for me? What the actual fuckery is this? It's like some manga or fanfic bulshittery…"
