Your father/(F/n) pov~

"The hell, Ron!" I scream at my phone, probably looking insane. I'm currently at a motel, trying to get my apartment situated, and ultimately, my life together. I'm hoping that my wife will forgive me.....I'm such a f***ing loser...

This is probably confusing without any context. I'm (Y/n)'s dad...the reader's...your failure of a father. Let me explain myself.

Before my beautiful daughter was born, about 3 months into my wife's pregnancy, I began to have many pessimistic thoughts and feelings. I couldn't deal with the fact that there was a chance that my stupid quirk would be inherited by my baby girl. I decided that I didn't want to think about that anymore. I became desperate, irrational and dumb.

I trusted Ronnie. If I would've known he had other intentions I wouldn't have done it.

I called Ron after a month of panic attacks and I confided in him. I was expecting him to console me and send his regards, but instead, he provided a solution. Ron said that there was this pill that he could get a hold of that lowers the chances of her possessing my quirk. Not only that, but she had a chance of becoming powerful. When he explained his plan I thought it was genius. All I had to do was give my wife the pill every three days, and that's what I did. (Y/n) was born, healthy and beautiful. I never thought that I would actually have people in my life who loved me for me. My daughter and my wife made me the luckiest guy in the world and...... I screwed up. I had everything I ever wanted and I screwed it up. When my daughter wasn't manifesting her quirk, we went to the doctor and he told us that her anatomy shows that she should have a quirk. She doesn't have a quirk because of some "unknown reason". I knew exactly what that reason was and I explained everything to my wife. We are currently taking a break and I'm pretty surprised that she didn't leave me right then and there. She even calls me occasionally and I told her that (Y/n) should know what happened. She can decided whether she'll forgive me or not.

I'm chewing out Ronnie over the phone for blatantly lying to me and jeopardizing my family's trust in me. This is his excuse.

"My boss had a deadline and needed the product to work in order to start selling it and I got desperate, ok?! I know I shouldn't have used you like that but the pill was unsuccessful the last 47 attempts. It caused many, many miscarriages, but your wife was the first to successfully make it through all 9 months and childbirth. I was getting closer and made progress. Thanks to your wife, I'm in jail....so none of it matters. Welp....that's what I get for working in the black market part time."
Ron finally ends his story and I began to shake out of anger.

"Yo--you mean t-to tell me that... YOU RISKED MY HAPPINESS FOR MONEY!" I'm completely furious at this point.

"Listen, I was desperate and needed to show my boss my progress, or I would have been fired. Once again, it doesn't matter because I got what I deserved." Ron states calmly over the phone. "I only have five minutes left, so get to your point."

"My point is what you did does matter because you ruined my life. And I thought you were my friend...." I let out a long sigh and hang up the phone. Talking with him is just going to make me feel worse. I can feel blood rushing to my head. I'm shaking.....



I've been betrayed

(Y/n)/Reader's pov~

"No way....." I state as I try to process what my mom is telling me. My mother shut down their "company", if you can call it that. The drugs that were used to enhance quirks were destroyed. The prototype pills that Mr. Ronnie gave to expectant mothers were also destroyed.  Now they are spending life in prison. My mom has a few tear stains on her cheeks, but she looks relieved.

Suddenly, we get a call from Inko. She is telling us to watch the news. I grab the T.V. remote while sitting down due to extreme laziness and press the power button. Once I find the correct channel, I stare at the screen in utter shock. I can't believe it! The sludge monster.... AGAIN! How could this have happened... All Might had the villain in his grasps. Who's that kid in the sludge monster's grasp? The heroes present at the scene can't even save the kid...Kamui would burn, Backdraft is busy putting out the flames, and Mt. Lady can't even get to the villain because of the narrow road. It was unbelievably chaotic. The sludge villain launches an explosion near the camera man and the screen cuts to the anchorwoman.

What is going on today? My eyes are completely glued to the screen.

"It looks like someone is attempting to fight the sludge monster and save the boy!" the woman states with a very exaggerated expression. The screen cuts to a camera from a different angle and...Midoriya?! This dude has a death wish. He is charging towards the villain and throws his school bag right at him. "Someone just informed us that..." her eyes widen as if she's in a state of disbelief. She moves her mic away from her mouth and I hear some mumbling. When she returns she said "...someone just informed us that this child has no quirk, he's quirkless!"

They show a shot of Izuku trying to dig the child out of the slime. He had no plan, he just ran. This boy amazes me sometimes. He better live.

All Might charged towards the villain and knocked him down in one swing. The attack was so powerful that it created a huge, mesmerizing tornado.

The screen pans to Midoriya. He had the wind knocked out of them, but he's alive. The tension in the room dissipates and a wave of relief washes over me.

I didn't even notice that Izuku's mother was still on the line until I heard faint sniffling. My mom disables the speaker and places the cell phone near her ear.

"How would you like us to join you and keep you company, Inko? We can surprise Izuku when he comes home. You both have had a rough day." my mom chats with her a little longer before turning towards me.

"Alright, let's go!"

I give her a bright, genuine grin.

I just want to wish anyone who is still going through school, good luck. I'm stressing a little over finals but writing stories is pretty therapeutic for me. I hope you all have an awesome week! :)
