Chapter 26 - Yūki

DAY 300

TODOROKI's POV

Midoriya placed a hand on the window of my room forcing a smile as a frown still stood on his face. How many times I've seen that scene in the last week? I lost count of them, however what actually caught my attention was Iida standing by Midoriya looking way less distressed than Izuku.

"Why are they here?" - I asked the nurse in the room as I could see Iida saying something and Midoriya's expression changing into an even more worried one.

"Your friends? The shorter one came a few times to see how you are doing, but he's not allowed to come in. It's the first time the taller one shows up though."

I knew that much, that wasn't the answer I was looking for. I saw Midoriya standing outside my room a few times already and I honestly only wanted to scream and shout at everyone to make him leave but my mouth always stood shut, as in that moment. I kept quiet adverting my eyes to watch her do her things to my IV. Whatever they kept injecting me, it made me sleepy and I couldn't decide if I liked it or not.

"Do you want to talk with them? I'll make an exception and let your friends in for a few minutes..." - she asked smiling meeting my glance.

"I want them to leave" - I cut short turning away leaving her to frown as she had finished working on my IV.

"Are you sure? Not even the shorter one? Isn't he your friend? He's been really worried; he has come almost every day and stayed in the waiting room..." - she asked.

'He doesn't care. It's just an act'
'He hates me'

"I have no friends" - I said fixing my glance on the armchair where Dabi sat that night flipping my already messed up world upside down. Maybe I should have joined him, I didn't want to be a villain but at least I would be with the only person who ever showed me some true love. Maybe it never happened and I imagined it all, maybe I was just going insane like my mother.
It didn't matter anyway. Whether it was real and he was alive and a villain or it was all my imagination and he was dead, I could only think one thing in that moment.

'Villain or dead, you should have taken me with you'

DAY 305

3rd PERSON'S POV (No one POV)

"Have you noticed any change in his behavior?" - the blonde middle age woman, Yūki Sasaki, asked as her glance rested on the two Todoroki.

Fuyumi and Enji shared a look before the young Todoroki spoke glancing through the window of her brother's hospital room.

"He has always been quiet and reserved..." - Fuyumi said frowning as her eyes fixed on his brother figure. Ever since she could remember, her brother had always been quiet. Shōto never talked much or expressed his feelings, most of the time she couldn't even tell how he felt. It bothered her for a while but as years passed by, she just grew used to it to the point of not noticing anymore.

"You couldn't tell if anything changed home? Any little thing is important. Did he spend more time alone in his room? Talked less?" - the blonde woman asked. She was used to everything, but this was unusual. In every case she had to deal with, the family would talk and talk, saying every little thing they notice. That time though, it was different.
