The few days following the entrance exams, Izuku had been completely unresponsive. He just stared at the wall as he lifted the weights. Miyo was the person most likely to get a reply, and yet the freckled boy just kept his silence.
It was only when Inko had crawled over to the bedroom door that Friday, holding up two letters with trembling hands, that he showed any signs of comprehending the world around him. Miyo tumbled off the bed, rushing to go grab her letter. Izuku had actually turned to look at Inko, his eyes showing recognition and fear.
Miyo grabbed his as well, and gave it to him. "Do..you want me to be in here?" She asked, staring down at her own letter. Izuku shook his head slightly, and began opening the letter. She nodded, and left the room quietly.
She walked into the bathroom, and sat on the toilet seat lid. As she carefully opened the envelope, and a letter was inside. Miyo read over the letter and felt a broad grin spread across her face. She'd done it. She made it into Yuuei.

Miyo smiled so wide her cheeks began to hurt. She made it into the hero course, and she could become a hero. She jumped up and ran out of the bathroom, running to her room. The door was still shut, and she could hear a familiar voice from inside.
"Hey, Izuku..? I'm coming in..." Miyo said, suddenly hesitant. She opened the door slowly to see a holographic image of All Might, and Izuku staring intently. The screen faded away, and she heard a shaky whisper.
"I did it..." Izuku's voice cracked, and Miyo knew he was going to cry. She walked up to the chair, placing a hand on his shoulder.
"I knew you could do it. Come on, we need to tell Mom!" Miyo grinned, grabbing Izuku's hand, dragging him off the desk chair. There were tears leaking from his eyes, but his face sported a grin that could light up the world.
They ran into the kitchen where their mother was cleaning the counters. "Mom!" They exclaimed at the same time, running in to hug her.
"I made it! I really did it!" Izuku's voice bounced off the walls. Miyo hugged Inko quietly, but her grin reached her eyes. Inko congratulated him, before turning to look at her. Izuku did so as well, his smiled weakening.
"Miyo, how did you do?" Inko asked, looking at her. Miyo lifted up the letter with a grin. Inko took the letter, and gasped out when she finished.
"Both my children..going to UA..." Inko managed out, tears filling her eyes. Izuku read the letter, beaming up at her.
"Hana! That's so good!" Izuku exclaimed, taking her hands into his own as the almost jumped up and down in excitement.
Miyo gasped in realization. "I need to call Aoi! She tried for the hero course, too!" She said, running upstairs to grab her phone from the bedside table.
