Strange Talk

They all looked at each other nervously, unsure of what to say. They were so engrossed in their gossip that they hadn't noticed Yaoyorozu approaching until it was too late.

"Um... well, we were talking about... about... boys... yeah, boys... you know, if any of you have had a boyfriend," Uraraka stammered, her voice trembling.

Momo smiled nonchalantly, looking at each of them.

"Oh, you and your gossip. It must have been Ashido who started the conversation."

They all nodded in agreement, especially the pink-haired girl.

"By the way, Yaoyorozu... don't you have a boyfriend?" Ashido blurted out without thinking.

The other girls gave her a disapproving look, as discreetly as possible, at how stupid and direct her question was.

At that, Yaoyorozu's eyes took on a small, lascivious gleam, her gaze fixed upwards as if recalling a steamy encounter. Her cheeks flushed a deep red at record speed, and her tongue darted across her lips.

“No... I haven't had the wonderful pleasure of meeting someone to... do fun things with,” Momo said dreamily.

Her body language and strange words further alarmed her friends, especially Ashido and Jiro.

“Seriously, Yaoyorozu... why is it that with your looks, any guy would be after you?” Jiro asked boldly.

“Hahaha, thanks for the compliment, but I haven't met the right one yet.”

The “yet” in her words was so obvious that even the frog girl felt a slight shiver run down her spine.

“Alright, alright, bye girls, I have things to do,” Yaoyorozu said casually.

“Okay, okay, bye girls, I have things to do,” Yaoyorozu said casually.

So the former student model swayed her hips more than usual while the girls watched her with even more doubt than before.

“No... it can't be...” Jiro said in disbelief.

“Me neither... Ribbit,” Tsuyu echoed.

“Even so... we shouldn't pry into her private life,” Uraraka commented.

“Hmm... Or should we?” Ashido finally chimed in.

Even with all the evidence they'd seen so far, they still struggled to imagine a universe where Yaoyorozu...was Mineta's girlfriend!
