Mu Sanlu had never felt time drag so agonizingly.
Even with a shattered soul, he could usually laugh it off, but today was different. Today, Toge was the one lying inside the operating room.
Mu Sanlu stood blankly in the corridor until a hand patted his shoulder.
"… Satoru?" His gaze was somewhat vacant.
Gojo Satoru frowned and reached out to cover Mu Sanlu's eyes.
"Hey-hey! It's your handsome and reliable Teacher Gojo." As if he hadn't noticed that Mu Sanlu had mistaken him for someone else, Gojo spoke in a gentle, comforting tone while lightly patting Mu Sanlu's back.
"Don't worry, Toge will be fine."
"Lu must be tired from rushing over to find Toge earlier, right?" Gojo kept one hand over Mu Sanlu's eyes while using the other to press his head against his shoulder.
"Want to rest for a bit? Maybe when you wake up, you'll be able to see Toge."
