I initially had thought that Julia would take a few days before coming here. She opened her arms for a hug and asked for a kiss, which I didn't refuse as I did it elegantly on her cheek.

Then I couldn't help but ask, "I thought you have said you were coming this weekend?"

I had made calculations beforehand as I had thought she would arrive by Sunday, which should let the house available for Friday. Now, I won't be able to bring Reiko here… I may look for another place.

"What, aren't you happy to see me?" Julia filled her cheeks with air, looking cute, before grabbing my cheeks until they are hurt.

"I am just too surprised." I said and she left my cheeks, "Anyway, why didn't you call me beforehand."

"I was about to. But I fell asleep without realising. Besides, I wanted to see when you would go back home." She let a deep sigh as she lied back, stretching her arms up.

I chuckled and sat down next to her.

The conversation went along as she asked me about how the summer camp went and asked about the details.

I had told her almost everything, leaving details such as my meeting with All For One and that I have to chase someone who's called Dabi out of the talk.

"Wow, and you really, went all of the ways, to chase after that Nomu?" she raised an eyebrow, surprised. She didn't look angry this time, knowing my new strength.

I nodded, "You know, I have that technique. To get more power."

"No one saw you." She asked, carefully.

I shook my head.

Julia didn't seem to mind it. She then let a long sigh.

"What?" I asked as I saw her not looking at my eyes.

"Lee, don't overuse it. it can fire you back" her gaze pierced my eyes.

This shocked me a bit. "What do you mean by that?" was she hurt by Hamon. Julia, for the first time, I saw her cheeks turning red without drinking wine.

"A lot of Stamina and physical power can make you, sometimes, unsatisfied and hungry for more. They don't say that greed is a sin for no reason."

She bit her lips.

***

Julia. She had just given her son friendly advice. After she had got the Life Hamon that day, she had been happy with the improvement she had got. However. After weeks later, she had realised the curse. As any middle-aged single woman, she does what adults like her do, playing with themselves at least once a week.

That when the problem had started.

Whenever Lee goes to school, she would start to please herself.

However, because of the physical strength she had got, she couldn't just stop, and the duration he spends at school wasn't enough, luckily he had been staying out. That was one of the reasons why she had to leave and ask him to buy a package. While working in her country, she had to take one day as an extra vacation. That almost ruined her life, if not for the boost in her Quirk.

She had thought since this happened to her, what about Lee, who had drained two Nomus from their life force! Well, he has a girlfriend? But now that he had mentioned the third Nomu, god knows what her little big man would do.

She stared directly at his shocked eyes, as he seemed to process what she is telling him. "I'm just advancing you."

***

"I get it! Don't worry about that, I have my ways to deal with them," I didn't dare to chuckle.

Usually, she would tease me about adult stuff and all. But this time, she was so serious.

"Now, forget that I ever mentioned that." She said.

"Sure," I said, half closing my eyes, not forgetting the kind of voices which I used to hear as a kid when I pretended to sleep. I wondered if they are still the same. I thought while looking at her.

"Don't give me that look." She said, giving my shoulder a small punch.

I chuckled. "Relax, I'm joking." I lied back. Her facial expression relaxed a bit. There was a small silence and I spoke in what in my mind.

"The hero license exam is in one week," I said, quietly.

I have two things in my mind. The other thing, which I decided to leave, was that I am dating Itsuka, Reiko, and Yu at the same time, and I would have to introduce them to her in the future, so I wouldn't appear weird when I get them here. Though, I wonder what kind of reaction she would show when she hears about it. Probably she would yell, knowing her past with some cheating man. I would have to show that the girls are okay.

"Woah, what! When?" Julia raised an eyebrow. "Isn't that too fast. You are just a first-year student."

"They say that qualified students need a license to be able to protect themselves," I said, obviously, talking about myself.

"That, great…" She then shot me a sharp gaze. "You aren't going to be reckless and destroy things around, are you?"

"I don't know?" I shrugged my shoulders.

"I know… you can work outside if you want."

"leave that later, I have something else in mind for now." Leaving Japan wasn't as easy as it were in the past. I have three girlfriends here you know.

"Yes?" Julia got curious.

"How can someone act like a hero?" I asked.

That part was the only thing to worry about.

"You have just to act like the people you see on TV. Ask the hostages, the victims if they were fine even if it is obvious. Tell them to move if they can… it's like acting in a drama movie."

"Don't you just smile at them and tell them you are here?" I raised an eyebrow as this is the only thing I know about acting like a hero.

She shook her head, no. "You are lacking skills to say phrases like those. I can easily tell that you aren't meaning it, you aren't showing you are."

"I know how to act," I defended myself, "I just don't know the scenario."

"Your acting isn't as good as you may think. You may gain some ladies as fans, don't ask me why. But for guys and victims, with your attitude." She said, knowing my temper "Can scare them more than the villains. You yell at anyone when you are pissed off."

"That's…" scratching my chin, I couldn't help it. "Is it so scary?"

"Unless the girl is into it." Julia chuckled. "I had the same problems in acting when I was young." She examined me before saying. "That's it, we will act on your acting skills!"

"I am a good actor," I said.

I'm a good liar, ask anyone… right, Julia used to figure out each time I lie to her unless I talked on the phone. Geez.

"Really, try to fool me with one." She turned her face turning the TV on, not seriously challenging me.

She is right, probably.

I will leave acting for later.

Now, it would be a chance to tell her about the other thing that I have in mind.

"I am dating three girls at the same time." I shrugged my shoulders.

Julia posed for a brief, turned to face me, and opened her eyes widely seeing my face as calm as usual. She could tell from my face I was telling the truth.

"You, you know you are cheating on Itsuka –"

"Don't worry, Itsuka knows and gave her blesses." I waved my finger, cutting the frown she is drawing. "They are okay with it, the three of them. You will be fine when you meet them."

I don't know, saying this made me feel relief.

Since she knows when I lie, she would be able to tell I'm saying the truth.

Julia paused for a brief. Then she busted into a laugh. "Hahaha… you almost got me there. Hehehe… good acting, just unrealistic scenario." Tears fell from her eyes as she laughed.

"No, I am serious," I said.

"Just make sure to introduce me to them one day." With sarcasm, she said, as she tried to catch her breathes.

"Sure."

She paused after my answer and stared at my face. "Oh my god." Continuing laughing, she punched my shoulder, using her quirk that my shoulder really became numb. I held my shoulder. "Hey," I retorted.

"I get it, I get it. You can be a good liar. You surely have the potentials to become a good actor." Julia said, "I really underestimated you. But we will work on other things."
