"I'm home!" you yelled, pulling off your shoes and placing them neatly by the door. "Is anybody here?"

You were met with silence. "Mom? Izuku?" When you walked into the kitchen your mom and brother were already sitting at the table and eating dinner. It was Izuku's favorite food on the plate. Didn't we already have this yesterday? This isn't even leftovers. It's a new batch of food.

"Why are we eating this again? Didn't we just eat it last night?" You grabbed a bowl and started putting rice in it.

"Oh, (y/n). This is for izuku. He just worked so hard today and I wanted to make something special." The smile on her face restrained you from yelling at her.

"I worked hard too," you whispered sadly.

A sigh escaped your lips and you stood from your chair. "So what am I eating then?" You asked, going to look through the fridge.

"Um, we thought you already ate... I didn't prepare anything. I needed to go shopping too. There's nothing left in the fridge since I used everything for tonight."

You sighed and stared into the emptiness of the cold box that should be containing food. Guess you couldn't get mad at your mom for thinking you went out to eat... But suddenly you were no longer hungry.

You were about to ask Izuku about what happened at school during the tests in Mr. Aizawa's class, but the phone ringing stopped you.

"Where's mom?" you asked Izuku.

"She went to the store."

The phone didn't stop ringing so you got up and went over to it. "Hello?"

"Is this Inko Midoriya?"

"This is her," you lied.

"We're calling for the adoption of your daughter," the male voice said blandly, not aware of the tears beginning to form in your eyes. What adoption? I'm being given away?

"O-okay." You bit your lip to keep yourself from sobbing.

"The process will happen in a few weeks. I know you wanted it to happen in a few months so I'm sorry if you don't find it an appropriate time, but the person adopting is getting a bit impatient. He-" You couldn't hear the rest of what the man was saying because you dropped the phone to the ground.

"(y/n)? Who was it?" Izuku questioned, getting up from his spot on the couch and going over to you when he noticed the tears that were now falling down your cheeks.

"I-I don't know..." you whispered, voice shaking. "Is this just a joke?"

Your brother pulled you into a hug. "What happened, (y/n)?"

"Did you know about the adoption?"

He stiffened and slowly pulled away. "Who told you?"

You looked at him and sadness soon turned into anger. He knew?

"You've got to be kidding me... What is wrong with this family?! First mom starts hating me because I have a quirk and you don't. Then-"

"Mom doesn't hate you, (y/n)..."

"Don't interrupt me! I've dealt with this shit for too long... She favors you, then all of the sudden you have a quirk. What did you do? Huh? Did you just want mom to love you even more? Is that it?"

"It's not like that!"

"W-why can't she love me? Can't I just be loved by someone? Or is it impossible?" You sniffled and rubbed your eyes.
