- W-what? - The woman's voice was hesitant, she wasn't sure if she had heard her friend's words correctly. - Inko what do you mean? They are friends! - she half-shouted into the receiver. - she raised an annoyed voice. - Friends accept each other no matter what! - The women abruptly ceased their conversation. The blonde was perplexed by her friend's assertion, given that the two boys had been acquaintances for as long as she could recall.- Inko, what are you-

- Just because my son is quirkless doesn't mean your punk can make fun of him! - The woman, overcome with emotion, released a powerful exclamation into the phone, catching her friend off guard. It was unusual for her to raise her voice, making the outburst all the more surprising. - I don't want this to turn into something much worse - at the end, her, voice was almost inaudible, she did not want to suggest anything, Deep down she believed that the blond-haired boy is not like that at all, but her subconscious was saying something else. - Inko...- the woman finally spoke. - Do you seriously think Katsuki would do something like that!? - this time it was the blonde who shouted, much louder and more aggressively than her predecessor. - I simply like to be proactive and avoid any potential problems before they arise. - The thoughts that had been raging through her head so far began to calm down, and they were replaced by uncertainty. More and more she was losing her conviction about the rightness of her choice, but maybe it wasn't something to worry about so much.

- So you think so, huh? -Tears welled up in the eyes of the woman with green hair. She felt exhausted, unsure, and scared of losing her dear friend. She remained silent, hoping the other woman would break the silence, but there was only an eerie hush.- Mitsuki? - she asked finally, unable to wait for the answer, silence. She pulled the phone away from her ear and looked at the screen. - She hung up... - she thought looking at the display, took a deep breath, and smiled sadly to herself. - That will be better. - she convinced herself in her mind, although she wasn't sure if it was true, she wanted to believe it, she had to. She had to be strong for her son.

The next day, the woman was walking with her son to kindergarten. The boy was excited about the possibility of playing with his new friend, he especially took moles, blocks, various figurines, and a few other things from home. Meanwhile, his mother was in a combative mood, she didn't know what she would do when she saw her blonde-haired friend, but she knew she couldn't show weakness, she had to be strong in her resolve. - Izuku, - she said, stopping, snapping the boy out of her imagination. - Can you promise me that you will stay away from Katsuki?- she asked without even looking at her son. The boy stood like a brick, he wasn't sure how to answer it, did what he said yesterday matter so much that his mother's behavior towards the blond changed so drastically?

But he knew better, he knew that the woman only wanted to protect him. They only had each other, the woman had always taken care of him as best she could, after all, he could do at least that much for her, right? - I'll do my best.- he lowered his head, he was... sorry. He didn't think he'd ever have to stop being friends with a boy, and even if he did, it wouldn't be under these circumstances or for such a trivial reason. - I know you think he's your friend. - She hesitated for a moment, not knowing what to say. How can one possibly convince their child to sever ties with their sole companion? It's a heartbreaking and difficult situation. She felt terrible, and she could see from her son's face that he wasn't in the best mood either. - Believe me, it will be better this way.

- I know...- He whispered softly and released his mother's hand. He kept his head down and walked away without saying goodbye. Inko didn't stop him because she knew it was going to be hard for both of them. The blond man and his family had always been close to them, but now...It was evident that she was lost and uncertain, but all she wished for was her son's safety and happiness.. - I'm sorry, Izuku...

I truly hope you can see that my only concern is ensuring that you remain safe.
