Kiko Suzuki

Kiko knocked on the Todoroki house's front door. She waited patiently after she knocked. Kiko Suzuki was Fuyumi and Natsuo's best friend. Well, she was closer to Fuyumi than she was to Natsuo. Enji Todoroki opened the door.

"What do you want?" Enji asked, glaring down at Kiko.

"Um, I'm Fuyumi's friend," Kiko said as Fuyumi ran up from behind her father.

"Kiko!" Fuyumi said. "Hi!" Kiko waved as Enji stepped to the side. Fuyumi pulled her inside the house before Enji could say anything.

"Fuyumi," Enji said. "We're not allowing guests over right now."

"She'll make Shoto feel better! He loves hanging out with Kiko!" Kiko glanced from Fuyumi to Enji.

"I can leave," Kiko said, quietly. Touya, the eldest Todoroki walked into the room a second later.

"What's Kiko doing here?" Touya asked. "I thought we weren't letting people over."

"I didn't know. I'll get going." Just as Kiko was about to leave, someone ran over to her and hugged her leg. She looked down to find a familiar little kid. "Hey, Shoto."

"Are you staying?" Shoto asked. He had a bandage covering his left eye. "Can I watch you draw?"

"I have to go, Shoto. But I'll see you soon, okay?" Shoto only hugged her tighter, making Kiko sigh and pick him up. Once she did, Shoto nuzzled her.

"Why do you have to go?"

"Cause, I have something to do at home." She lied, everyone but Shoto knew that. "I'll see you soon, okay?" Shoto pouted but eventually let go of Kiko. She may not know what happened to the Todorokis that day but she'd find out a couple of days later.
