Deku's pov

I sat at the dining table and watched my family eat the food I made, my eyes unfocused as I look down at the food, I was halfway off my chair, I didn't realise but it caught my mother's attention.
"Izuku honey?" I startle out of my disoriented state and look at her wide eyed. I manage to mumble out a hm? "You haven't eaten at all in two days, you've basically hovered around your phone and acted like a zombie, please tell me what has you on edge" I blink a few times trying to take in what my mother said said. She was right. I've barely slept and I'm basically a walking corpse. "Izuku!" I quickly snap my head towards her
"Sorry mum. I've just.. I've signed up for an interview at the bakugou company. And I'm waiting for them to accept.."
"Oh honey.. I'm sorry I'm making you have to go all through this trouble" I smile as I didn't mind
"Don't worry mum. I'm doing it for you two" we both look at izumi, around her mouth covered in food, she gives a bug smile and we laugh

A few hours later

As I laid on my bed looking up at the spinning ceiling fan, my phone suddenly run. I quickly sat up and answered.
"Hello?"
"Hello is this izuku midoriya?"
"Yes, that's me"
"We have come to inform you that your interview will be held on the 20th June."
"Thank you! Thank you so much" the call ended. I ran to my mother "THE INTERVIEW IS NEXT WEEK!" she happily hugged me
"Oh my baby! well done!"
"I think I'll need a new suit though.. all mine are either worn out or ripped" I look down
"We'll buy a new one!" My eyes widen in suprise
"But we don't have the money! What if I dont get the job?!" She just smiles at me.

the day of the interview

I wake up and groggily look at the clock 10:10  "shit! I'm late" I jump up and quickly get dressed, running into the kitchen to kiss my mother and sister goodbye. I run out the door and fight to get on the first train. I sigh heavily and stand awkwardly between the people on the train. As the train moves I feel myself getting pushed around as everyone swayed side to side, some were grabbing onto the handles, some were holding onto the poles. But unlike them I was stuck holding nothing, I stumbled a few times before finally getting off the train. A five minute walk to get to the company. You can see it from the train station anyway. It's so massive.. "damnit I'm wasting time!" I quickly start running and trying to push through the many people around.

As soon as I get into there a woman greets me.
"You must be izuku midoriya?" I pant heavily but pull myself together.
"Yes ma'am"
"Your-" I cut her off
"Late.. yes ma'am I know. I'm sorry.."
"Actually I was going to say you're actually quite early"
"Wait what, my interview was at 10:20 though. It's 10:30."
"The boss came to work late so everyone's interviews got pushed back. You must've not seen the message"
"Oh! My email got deleted so I made a new one, I can give you it" she smiles and leads me to where I have to go, three people run past us
"He's fucking crazy!" A woman screams as tears flow from her eyes, ruining her mascara. I look at the female beside me. She looks back at me
"Don't worry about that, in you go" I walk into the room and see a male in what seemed like a very expensive black leathered chair. his hair was a long dirty blonde, slicked back, his eyes were bright red and piercing. He was wearing an expensive black suit and a gold wrist watch
"Sit down." His words were as cold as ice. His voice raspy but deep. I take a seat "state your name." I'm actually really intimidated by this guy..
"My name is izuku midoriya!" He rolls his eyes and touches the earpiece in his ear
"You're quite loud." I cover my mouth
"S-sorry.." I look down at my resume on the table
"You're quite qualified and have flexible work hours. Anything else I should know about. Disabilities? Fear to speak or something." I think for a moment and shake my head

After a few minutes of talking to him he finally said it.
"I'm sorry but you're not at to my standards. Goodbye. Have a good day."
