Y/n's POV
I had woken up still in the infirmary.
"Oh good you're awake. You should head home now. You're all healed." Recovery girl stated as she wrote stuff down on her clipboard.
"My dad... is he mad at me..?" I said as I sat up from the bed.
"No. I cleared everything up with him. He's at home now."
"I see... I'll head home now." I got up from the bed.
"Very well. Have a good evening l/n and be careful." I then left the room. And headed home. As I reached my home I saw the house lights on. So he is home. As I entered the distinctive smell of f/f (favorite food) "sir? I'm home." I took off my shoes.
"Welcome back y/n. Feel good enough to eat?" I was confused he didn't scolded me immediately. Wait he knew I used the shadow barrier to talk to Shoto. Shit. Is he gonna ask about it!?
"Um yes sir. I'd like to eat." I entered the dining room.
"Here you are." He placed a plate of food on the place mat. He already had a plate for him set down so he sat. I took my seat.
"Thank you for the meal father." I took a bite. It had been a while since I tasted my fathers food. It was delicious. "How is it? I haven't made food in a while." My father said as he drank some white wine.
"It's good." I then asked a question that can either ruin the mood or develop a better conversation. "Are you mad at me?" He calmly spoke. "If you're talking about you talking to Shoto Todoroki no. No I am not." I gave a sigh of relief.
"It's just I could tell you saw I made the barrier so I thought you would've gone mad...." I looked down at my plate.
"I was mad when I saw you make it. But that was because you needed to make yourself weaker in order to let Shoto win. Am I correct?" I didn't think of it that way. But if that's what my father believes It's alright. "Yes." He spoke again. "Another reason was so you could be friends with him again am I also right?" I knew he would figure it out. "....yes..." his facial expression didn't change. It was still calm and collected.
"Alright then. I give up. All I ask is him not to be in the house. And if you get hurt while he's in the premises I'll never forgive him." He chuckled and drank more wine.
"But father weren't you really mad when that rumor got out?" I asked quickly taking a bite out of my food.
"Well yes of course. But that was because that rumor was about you and him in a supposed relationship." He put down his utensils and sighed. "I'm sorry... very sorry..the way I acted... i should've been calmer.. let you speak your case. I'm sorry I'm doing the things your mother would've done to you." I was shocked. Not because of his apology but the last sentence he said. "What do you mean.... what mother would've done to me..?" His face came to a realization. "A-ah! I'm sorry that slipped out. Ignore what I said about that. You don't have to know. You're mother is a great woman. She would never do the things I've been doing to you!" His face was obvious. He wanted me to forget about what he said. He's saying lies. That means my mom would've hit me? Put me down? No... the mother I know was kind. Always caring for others. She would never do that.. but come to think of it. I never really did things with my mother. She just took me to the park or the todoroki house. My father would be the one who would play dolls with me.. the one who would wake me up.. tell me bed stories... was my father hiding something about how my mother was like? I don't think I've ever seen her angry... and if she was it was only for a little bit until my father brought me to another room. "Y/n!" My father brought me from my trance. "Forget about it okay? Your mother would never do that... let's just continue eating dinner." And like that we ate in silence when I finished I excused myself from the table. Leaving my father by himself.
*2 hours later*
I was in my room. Reading some books until I heard my father talking to someone. I quietly listened it was slightly muffled but I think I could understand.
"I accidentally let it slip out. She didn't figure it out. She still believes her mother is a good person I swear. Mr. m/l/n believe me! I know, her tantrums and actions were bad! You don't think I know? I was your stress reliever! Anytime she didn't want her medication you would call me to get over there to help you. Once she got into a relationship you left it all to me. That's why when we graduated she immediately moved in with me. If it were anyone else she would've still had been with you. ARE YOU SERIOUS?! YOU THINK YOU HAD IT WORSE?! When she got pregnant with my daughter she wasn't allowed to take medication because it would've affected y/n. So for all 9 months I dealt with her. Of course I loved her. I loved her with all my soul! Damnit why did I bother calling you! Your nothing but a pathetic man who couldn't take care of his daughter so you let her Significant other take all the work!" All he said confused me. Medication? Dealt with? I mean I would see my father with a painful little smile whenever we were all together but I thought it was just because he was tired. It sounded like he ended the call. Since he slammed his bedroom door. It was getting late so I decided I would have to go to sleep. I slept thinking of what he could've meant.
