SUNDAY.

(Y/n) was free the entire day, as per usual, but this time, it was a bit lonelier. Bakugo and (Y/n) had exchanged numbers and his first message was...

IN THE GARDEN

(Y/n) looked around the fairly empty garden, nothing particularly in mind. Then she spotted a white-haired woman with gray eyes, seeming like a ghost.

"Would you like some water, miss?" (Y/n) handed the woman a water bottle.

"oh. thank you," she replied with a slight smile, opening the water bottle.

"The garden always feels so lonely, I rarely see anyone out here." (Y/n) smiled at the woman.

"mm. I'm Rei Todoroki. You look pretty young to be out here, what's your name?"

"Nice to meet you, I'm (Y/n)..mm, just (Y/n). I just have some complications so I'm staying here."

"I see..."


Then, something snapped inside (Y/n). "Oh! Are you Shoto Todoroki's mother?"

Taken aback a little, Rei Todoroki replied, "yes, do you know him?"

"Oh, He's my classmate."

"That's great! Actually, can you deliver something to him for me? I'm not sure if he's visiting me this week..."

"Sure."

INSIDE REI TODOROKI'S ROOM

(Y/n) sat with her arms crossed on a chair and looked around the pretty standard room as Rei Todoroki pulled out a letter from a box, smiling in thought of her son.

"Can you deliver this letter to him, please?"

"sure."


Just then, the door opened. 

And a Shoto Todoroki stood at the door.

"oh. um, delivery." (Y/n) handed him the letter, conveniently. 

It was unfortunate, Shoto Todoroki had already seen (Y/n) in her hospital gown, and so she couldn't transform herself into someone else.


"..(Y/n)? What are you doing here? How do you know my mom?"

"It's kind of a long story...I'll leave you with your mom. We can talk later, I'll be waiting outside."


_____________

"You're done. Let's go somewhere quieter to talk." (Y/n) led Todoroki to the roof.



"I have a heart condition, that's why I'm here. I met your mother in the hospital's garden and she wanted me to deliver the letter to you. My background's pretty complicated."

"Your quirk...it's not only reverse, right? The pain didn't come with the punch, it came after.." His voice was cold as usual.


"I guess I can technically do almost anything basically, in return my lifetime is shortened and I have to endure more pain. The pain is from people's wrongdoings. Instead of the whole world being punished, I'm the one who suffers."

"...and how can I believe that?"


(Y/n) kicked over vase and it shattered. And then it was reconstructed immediately. (Y/n) then led to Todoroki to her room where she pulled out her medical papers documenting her heart condition.


"..."

"it's pretty difficult to take in, so you don't have to understand me."



"are you god?"

"pfttt--no, I have my own flaws like any other person, plus i wouldn't die like "

"hm."


It was almost the end of the day, Todoroki was sitting on a couch in (Y/n)'s room while she watered her plant. Todoroki had been explaining his situation and background, asking (Y/n) to look out for his mom when she can.


This was interrupted when

"I had some free time left. And it took me so goddamn long to find your roo---WHY THE HELL IS ICY HOT HERE?!"



"oh, and Bakugo happens to know about this too."


"oh."
