Izuku's POV

I knock at the door of Nezu's office. Once I heard a 'come in', I open and entered the office. Inside I saw Nezu, All Might, and Aizawa. There was no escape from this and even if I didn't show up today, it will just happen again another day.

"Please have a seat Izuku." and I did.

The atmosphere was a bit heavy which made me a bit uneasy.

"Im sure you know why we called you here since this is something that concern you Izuku" Nezu started.

I sigh and answered, "This is about my worried father over there who happened to be the No. 1 Hero All Might. Am I right sir?"

My Dad's face change from worried to shock. I guess he didn't expect me to find out about his secret.

"You knew?" Aizawa asked and I nodded.

"Was that one of the reason why you run away from home?" Nezu asked.

He must be thinking that Im throwing a tantrum or rebelling against my father. In a way yes and beside I have the right to.

"No and I didn't know he was All Might until after the sludge villain incident" I answered.

They seem surprise by the information.

"If you dont mind me asking, why did you run away from home Izuku?" Nezu asked.

Those eyes of Nezu's are curious, calculating and info starve. I don't know if I could trust those darn eyes.

"I want to know why you left as well Izuku" Dad said softly.

I sigh and asked, "Was it wrong to leave when you guys were hardly home nor would you care?"

"Izuku-" Dad started but I cut him off.

"Ever since I was diagnosed as quirkless, you guys started to become distance. You started to work more and hardly come home. I basically have to grew up by myself. You don't even know what's happening to me. You don't know how I was treated for being quirkless. How many times I wish that I'll have a quirk then maybe you'll pay attention to me."

I didnt know that I started crying. I couldn't help it since everything I kept to myself are coming out. I was crying for all the times I see myself in the mirror everytime I come home covered in bruises from bullying. I cried for all the time I wished for my parents to be home and just spend some time with me. I cried for all the time I spend alone at home.

"You don't know how many times I just wish that you guys would just spare a little bit of time with me. Everytime your home you were always tired or working even on your day offs. I was always alone and the only ones that were there for me were Kacchan's parents. I even sometimes wonder if you guys even love me."

"Izuku, Im sorry if we made you feel  that way." Dad said and I can feel some regret in them but years of sorrow won't easily be mended.

"You won't even listen to me Dad. When i got my quirk, you were the first one I want to tell. But you didn't pay any attention to me. You were focus more on your work. I was very excited to tell you so I waited for you to come home. I tried to tell you many times but it always ends up the same. It was like I didn't exist. It was like you can't see nor hear me." I cried even more as I remember those times.

"Izuku it's not like that! You're my son and I always love you. I know I wasn't there for you but I'll try to be more of a father for you."

I can feel it. I can feel the control I have on my quirks slowly slipping. Im scared and uncertain. I feel like my anxiety and I don't like those feelings.
