"Are you ready, love?"

I take the biggest breath of air in the entire world. I really need it, and I will keep needing it for a while now.

I nod, hold back every single one of my tears, and reassure I am okay with a small kiss on his lips.

Deku then smiles; a small, sweet, empathetic and one hundred percent sure of himself for absolutely no more but my own good. The three of us get out of the vehicle, take everything we brought, and walk into the facility.

"Hey there, Doña Rosi, how are you?"

"Oh, sweetheart!" She says, coming over to me, to greet me with a hug I can barely give back out of all the flowers in my hands. "It's so nice to see you once again, my dear! I missed you so much around here. I'm so glad you finally came to visit my boy..."

I nod, pressing my lips together; it's so hard already to be steady and I haven't even gotten to him yet...

"Ah... yeah, I... well... you know, it's... it's been hard to do this, Mrs. Rosi..."

"I know" She says, right away, nodding, fully understanding. "Don't worry, I know he will understand too, don't you worry, my dear."

I press my lips together, and nod too hoping so. I take a deep breath and turn to look at my company. "Ah... here, these are Katsuki and Izuku, they.., they came to join me today..."

"It's nice to meet you, ma'am" Says Deku, letting her greet him with a kiss on his cheek.

"Nice to meet you too, boys, it's good you came with my girl. She's not quite ready to come all by herself yet."

"We know" Bakugo nods, letting her greet him too when she gets closer too. "Don't worry about her, we'll be around."

"Well, better that way, huh? Just give her a nice moment alone with my boy; he's always been kind of jealous, you know? They're both friends of yours, right?"

"Ah... yeah" I say, nodding, smiling at her and looking back at the two behind me. "Yes, they're my friends."

"Well, better that way. Go on then, you know that man's impatient too."

I let out a small chuckle, though I think it was more what I needed to stop the tears from coming back and for behind my eyes.

That's why, not wanting to delay any longer this visit, I turn around, and head straight to where I know perfectly well my guardian angel is waiting for me.

The three of us walk in silence, and of course all the respect and knowledge of my current state of mind: they know perfectly well one word and I'll break down in tears too soon.

I mean, at least until...

We actually get there...

In here, where my heart is resting in peace.

I kneel in front of him, see his parents at his side, his best friend, and his best friend's parents; right where he always wanted and sought to be.

In here, with...

With his family...

It takes so much for me to speak.

It takes courage, bravery, and a lot of strength to see him, to talk to him, to let him know that after so much...

I could finally come...

Honestly...

It takes so much more than what I ever thought possible.
