Izuku's POV:

After Mister Yaoyorozu-sama headed back to his car, mom came out in her uniform and bag, seemingly in a rush before she stopped herself and turned around to face me.

Inko: "I had already called your school today about how you were not able to come in today, so you have the rest of the day to yourself. Have a good day sweetie." she then blew me a kiss and continued running towards Yaoyorozu-sama's car.

After being told that I had the day off, I walked back inside as I closed the door behind me, making my way to my room as I set my bag on my bed and sat on my chair while I leaned back and relaxed, glad that the trouble was over.

I took a few seconds to relax before I straightened my back and took out my UCS from my bag as I then got to work on figuring out what happened to the missing data from yesterday. I tried whatever I could to retrieve whatever was missing, using many methods and programs  I learned from online and from myself, but no matter what I did, I couldn't find anything that could explain what happened yesterday.

After many trials and errors, I had given up on trying to figure out a way to get back the data as I tossed the UCS onto my bed, trying to figure out what I was going to do next. I look at the All Might clock in my room, seeing that it is around the time that school should end.

Izuku: "I wonder what I missed out on today?" I question as I lean against my chair, giving myself a light stretch, that was until I had remembered the other thing I had forgotten yesterday, making me quickly jolt back up as I quickly grabbed my gi and my backpack as I rushed out of my room and ran towards the train station.

After I got off at my stop, I ran towards sensei's place as I got scared about what's to come as I hadn't given him any notice yesterday that I wasn't going to be there. I got to the front gates as I was out of breath and sweating a bit. The two guards just stood there without a care for what's happening until I had the energy to tell them to let me in. They then opened the gates as I then walked in.

I saw sensei sitting in front of his house as he was peacefully drinking his tea, enjoying the sounds of nature that surrounded him.

Izuku: "Um, sensei?" I ask nervously, worried that he may get mad at me for skipping out on yesterday, but he only continued drinking his tea in peace without saying a word. It took a while for him to finish the pot before he had said anything.

Akio: "Were you able to save your friend?" he asks. I only nodded my head as I hummed yes, worried for what punishment he had in store. "There's no reason for you to be tense. I would have been angrier if you were capable of saving your friend but chose to come here instead. I would have kicked you out if that happened." as he slowly got up and calmly walked towards me to give me a head pat. "You did well." which made me space out for a while until I finally took in the words he had said to me, making me smile as I was so happy. "Now then," as he decided to turn back and walk towards his house, "What extra lesson should I have you do for today?" which immediately broke me out of elation and made me look at him with confusion, causing him to turn his head around. "What? I said I was proud of you, I didn't say you weren't going to make up for yesterday." as he had a grin on his face as he headed inside, making me groan as I got fooled by him once again.

I headed inside as well as I changed out of my clothes and into my gi. My punishment had been decided that we would be doing some sense training, but this time, he was going to be throwing projectiles at me with fiercer velocity. When I opened up my bag as I then searched through the pile of vials that I had forgotten to put back, I noticed a few of them were missing some pellets that I don't remember using at all yesterday, but I didn't want to make sensei wait for too long, so I quickly looked for the smoke pellets and rushed towards where sensei was at.

For half an hour straight, I had to avoid a variety of weapons, even some close combat attacks as well, which ended in me receiving many bruises over my body. Afterward, we stuck to our usual training and I was finally released from training.

The next day, when I attended school, I was called out by the teacher for missing an important lesson yesterday as it was crucial for today's pop quiz, which got everyone to snicker, thinking that I would fail it but I was already ahead with all lessons and this pop quiz gimmick would always happen whenever I miss a day of school, so I wasn't bothered by it. When the quizzes were passed out, a few seemed at ease as they answered it while others looked like they were struggling, surprised by what the questions we're asking, but when I first glanced at the paper, I already knew the answers. I answered swiftly with plenty of spare time, giving me the opportunity to figure out what happened to the missing pellets yesterday.

The teacher called time, making many classmates groan as they didn't feel like they did well, but I was too busy trying to come up with possible reasons as to why I was missing certain pellets.

Katsuki: "HEY DEKU!" he yells out to my ear, completely scaring me as my entire body starts shaking in fear as I slowly look back to Katsuki to see what he wanted, "Stop being a nuisance and pay attention!" he yells out, annoyed, making me notice the people behind me as they had a pile of quizzes ready for me to pass it forward.

I quickly apologized but I could hear many people already snickering at me. I grabbed the pile behind me and began passing it forward, making the teacher shake their head as they were annoyed at how I wasted time.

I was given a lecture during lunch period about how I should pay attention so that it doesn't hinder other people's learning time as they then left it at that and let me go. After school had ended, I was on my way to sensei's place, still wondering what happened yesterday.
