My Other Half

「Chapter 3」

It took a while, but I finally reached the hellhole called school. You may be thinking, 'why do I hate UA so much? It's the worlds top hero school that everyone wants to go too!! Even people who don't live in this universe!!' And you would be absolutely correct in that assumption. Oh. Author-Chan is getting mad at me again for breaking the fourth wall like I did in the previous chapter. Now her friend randomizedpick  is telling Author-Chan to break the fourth wall even more. Oh well. Not my problem. Anyways, back to the story.

Like i said, I finally reached the hellhole called school. Mainly because of all the craziness and randomness that happens here. Especially with the so-called Baku Squad. Sometimes I wonder if they really do share one brain cell...or just entirely dumb in general. Except for Bakugou. He's the only one out of them that's actually smart. And shut up. I know that sounds gay. It's a TodoBaku story. But the Baku squad really worry me sometimes. Especially since all they do is create chaos and are just insane in general. But then again, my squad, aka the 'Deku squad' are if anything, more crazier. So I really shouldn't be saying anything.

When I walked into class, I was the only one there. I mean, I did wake up at like 4 am and then spent two-and-a-half hours watching the sunrise. And then like 40-ish minutes walking to school. So I am roughly 4 hours and 10 minutes early to class. And based off of that conclusion, I am incredibly early for class. Oh well. I walked over to my desk which is in the corner of the classroom. I sat down on my chair and rested my arms on the top. I put my head on top of my arms and closed my eyes.

'Damn...I'm so tired....' I let out a small yawn, feeling so sleepy...'maybe...I can take a small nap before class starts...' I thought as I shifted around slightly trying to get comfortable. That seems like a good idea....and soon the welcome void of sleep came over me.

~dream time~

It was a beautiful and sunny day. Bess are buzzing. Kids are blowing dandelion fuzz and he'll finally be able to do what other kids do in summer. A lady with Snow White hair was sitting on a bench in a park, reading a book all the while glancing up now and again keeping an eye out for her child. A 5-year old with red and white hair, split evenly  exactly in the middle the ran up the woman with the most largest smile on his face. His hands were cupped together, holding something inside from escaping. "Mom!!" He calls out excitedly. "Mom look!!!" The woman put down her book next to her on the bench and smiled softly at her son.

"Yes Shōto? What is it?" She asked as she picked him up and placed him on her lap. Said boy giggled on response as he slightly uncupped his hands and held it up to her face. "Look what I caught!!!" He said happily. His mom peeks into the dark hands and saw slight movement. "Mind telling me what it is Shoto?" She asked as she pulled away from his hand. He just puffed his cheeks up kind of annoyed. "It's a bug that's a pretty red and has black spots on it!!" He huffs in explanation.

Rei, his mom, just smiled at him. "You need to let him go Shōto." Shōto just looked up at her in surprise. "What?! But i caught it!! I want to keep it and name  them!!!" He protested. Rei just giggled at him and ruffled his hair. "What if I told you something magical about ladybugs Shōto?" Shōto just stared up at her in confusion. "Huh? What's a ladybug?" He questions. "It's what you currently have on your hands Shōto." She said. He just made an 'o' sharp with his mouth as he nodded in understanding. "Right!!! So what's the magical thing about ladybugs?" He asked in excitement. Rei smiled at him before explaining.

"Well, I was told at a young age that ladybugs are the messengers of divine spirits. They travel all over the world in different forms but most commonly ladybugs. They say that ladybugs carry peoples wishes, hopes, and dreams. They then take them to the high spirts above and give them this information. They also say they carry any negative things they might hear on the way up to the heavens. They explain the people's woes and troubles, begging the divine spirits to help the people below." She explains. Shōto just looks up at her in wonder. The story made him feel all bubbly and warm inside. "And then?" He asks.

"Then the divine spirits listen to the ladybugs. Almost never they don't do anything." She said sadly. Shoto noticed his mom's sudden change in tone and reached up to poke her cheek. "Please don't be sad mommy...." he mutters quietly. "I don't like it when your sad..." Rei smiles at her son's caring  and kindness. "Don't worry Shōto. It's okay. Mommy's not sad." She nuzzled his forehead causing the little to giggle and smile. "That tickles mommy!!" Rei was glad that she could spend some time with her youngest son. It was nice. "Want me to continuously my story Shōto?" She questions. He just nodded his head frantically in response. "Yes!!! Yess!!!" Rei laughs at that and continues her story.

"Like I said, the divine spirits don't always listen to the ladybugs. But when they do...miracles happen." Shoto's eyes widen in wonder as his curiosity spiked. "Miracles?" He asked. Rei nodded with a smile. "Yes. Miracles Shoto. Beautiful and wonderful miracles." Shōto just started bouncing excitedly on his mother's lap, immediately firing question after question. "Does that mean I can ask the ladybug for as many wishes I want?!" Rei just giggled and shook her head. "Well depends on how many spots are in your ladybug Shoto." The little bit quickly looked at the ladybug that was in his hand and counted quickly. "Three black spots mommy!" He chirps.

"That means you can make three wishes Shoto." Said person frowned slightly at that but then shook his head. "Okay!!" He smiled widely. "Do I need to say it in my head or can I say it out loud?" He asks as he curiously tilted his head to the side. "Out loud is just fine Shōto." Shōto nodded as he furrowed his eyebrows. "My first wish is...for Touya to come back." He mumbles. Rei just kissed his forehead and rubbed his back. 'I'm sorry Shōto....' she sighed internally. "My second wish...is for mommy to be happy again...!" He looked up at her and gave a small smile. "And for my last wish....I want love. Not the kind daddy has for mommy. I wish for true love." He whispered the last wish to himself and opened up his hands. The minute he did so, the ladybug flew away.

"Let's go home now Shōto..." Rei said softly. Said boy nodded as he got off his moms lap. He held onto her hand as Rei stood up. And together...they walked back home.
