CHAPTER 2

"So how are you going to tell him?" Todoroki asked and unlike earlier, he was serious this time.

"I haven't thought of that yet."

How can you? You have barely processed the news yourself and only Todoroki and Mina knew about it.

"I haven't even figured out what I wanna do yet." You said seriously and lowered your head.

It was not a secret that you thought of termination. Is that not the most realistic solution considering the circumstances? You have not even graduated. You do not yet have the money to feed yourself, let alone another human being.

Additionally, if you did choose this route, you can keep pursuing your dreams and let him pursue his as well. But you knew you would never be able to live with the guilt.

Guilty not because it is morally wrong to terminate a pregnancy. At least with the society's definition of morality. But guilty because you will deprive a potential child—who, even though you do not want as of now, but with time, you know you will learn to love—its life, a home, maybe loving parents and fun annoying uncles and aunts?

It is a part of you and him that will grow up and make something of themselves. You were not sure anymore if you were capable of that.

Society's definition and standards for morality did not concern you. It was your own moral compass that was making you second-guess your decisions. But before you even reach a verdict, you knew you should tell him first.

He has the right to know. It's a part of him as well. It is indeed your body, and it sure is your choice but he should still be informed.

"Well, no matter what you choose, Mina and I will always be here for you. You know that, right?" He assured as he held your hand in his and squeezed it gently.

"Of course. Thank you, Sho."

You have been drowning in contemplation for days. At first, whether you should tell him or not. It's clear that you should but you were afraid how he would react. Then it turned to how. How will you even break the news to him?

'Hey, uhm you're going to be a father so better say goodbye to your dreams' That does not seem right.

The past few days have been so overwhelming. If it was not for Todoroki and Mina's support, you probably would've rotted in your bed crying. But alas, here you were. Doing what they have been advising you to do for days.

This will be the first time you'll be facing him after you found out. He had been blowing your phone for days asking how you were and why you haven't been talking to him. It was hard to avoid him, especially since he was in the same class as you. He sat behind you in class and tried his best to get your attention but you acted like he did not exist.

At every dismissal, he would try to approach you but before he could even get up from his seat, he would see Mina and Todoroki already escorting you out of the classroom.

He tried asking Mina. Hell, he even tried asking one of his mortal enemies, Todoroki, why have you been avoiding him. But alas, none of them gave him a clear answer. The both of them just kept telling him to 'just wait.'
