Sad Excuse

CHAPTER 4

After another week passed, Izuku had been signed out of the hospital. Although, he wasn't going back to Mitsukis. His father had actually came to pick him up, and take him home. He'd actually get to have a normal weekend at his own home. He had missed school for almost another month. His father was thinking about just having him do online school, because normal school was to much of a hassle. But the only thing Izuku ever really wanted was to go to a public school.

Hisashi and Izuku were on their way home, it was just nearing noon. Almost lunch time.
Hisashi had just pulled into the drive way and parked. "Let's go Izuku..", his father mumbled getting out of the car.
Izuku nodded and got out walking to the front door behind his father.

Hisashi entered his home and held the door open for Izuku.
Izuku entered and looked around, he saw his mother upon the couch, his eyes widen as his blank face brightened into a smile. "Mommy!!", Izuku yelled happily and ran over hugging her leg tightly. He coughed softly from his swift movements.

Inko glanced at him then Hisashi and glared. "I said.. not to bring him home.", Inko mumbled and pushed Izuku backwards.

Izuku looked up at her and tilted his head. "Wh-what?", he mumbled.
"H-hug.. mommy?..", he asked fidgeting with his hands.
"No. Go to your room. Now.", she growled, venom laced within her voice.

Izuku panicked a bit as tears threatened to spill from his eyes, his collar blinked a soft yellow as he ran up to his room.

Inko rolled her eyes and sat back.
"You have to go back to work. So hurry up.", Inko mumbled turning on the tv.

Hisashi nodded. "He needs to shower and eat.. so take care of him.",

Inko rolled her eyes and laid down on the couch. "K.", she mumbled.

Hisashi sighed and left heading back to work.

Inko laid against the couch and watched tv forgetting about her son.

Izuku sat alone in his room as tears spilled from his eyes.
Did his mom leave because of him?
Why wasn't his mom happy he was ok?
Does she not love him anymore?
He was safe, and home, and she wasn't happy, or relieved.

Maybe she was stressed, yeah that was it.

Izuku sniffled and wiped his eyes coming to the conclusion that she was just stressed.
He took a deep breath and calmed down. He stood and walked out of his room and downstairs.
As he entered the living room he looked at his mother who in which was laying on the couch watching tv. He stared at her, then came up with an idea. He smiled and went to the kitchen getting out the ingredients to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich.

Maybe if he did something for her, she'd be happy. Because all she does is take care of him. So maybe if he takes care of her, she'll feel better.

Izuku had trouble grabbing some things so he used a chair to help him. As he finished, he gently placed it on a plate and grabbed it walking to his mother who was watching tv. He poked her shoulder gently and waited for a response. "M-mommy...", he mumbled gripping the sides of the plate a bit.

She glanced at him in almost disgusted, "what?", she grumbled sitting up.
"I made you.. lunch..", he mumbled and handed her the plate.
She grabbed the plate and looked at the sandwhich. "Ugh...", she stood and walked to the kitchen, Izuku followed her confused. "Mommy?..", Izuku tried to get her attention.

Inko picked up the sandwhich and stood by the trash can. "See this Izuku?", she asked.

He nodded and watched her. "It's disgusting. Don't touch any of the food in this house. Got it.", she threw the sandwhich away and begging picking up the small mess Izuku left.

Izuku looked down and messed with his shirt and tears began to flood his vision.
"I-I'm sorry mommy...", he mumbled.

Inko finished cleaning up and walked her grabbing him by the hair.
"Ack-", he reacted to the pulling as Inko dragged him to the corner of the living room pulling his hair roughly. "M-mommy! Mommy! That hurts!", he whined, his collar flashing a bright yellow light as his heart rate increased. She threw him against the wall as the collar flashed a radiant red, he began to have a small coughing fit while Inko started to speak, lacing her words with heavy venom. "You're such a waste of money..", she mumbled. "Stay here. And don't move until your father gets home.",

Izuku moved slowly and faced the corner trembling softly as tears spilled from his eyes.
"I'm sorry mommy..",
"Shut up brat!", she yelled walking away and to her room. "God you're so annoying and expensive! You weren't even supposed to come home!! I- I hope your next coughing fit is fuck-fucking fatal!!", she yelled stuttering some. I bit hesitant with her words. She slammed her bedroom door and locked it.
Izuku sat there, tears spilling like waterfalls. He stared at the corner of the wall fidgeting and scratching at his hands.

The young boy unsure of what to think. He wanted his dad. He wanted Mitsuki and Katsuki.

Hours began to pass as dinner time began to pass, Izuku was curled up in the corner asleep and shivering softly.

Hisashi walked into the door and set his brief case down by the door and slipped his shoes off. He looked around to find izuku laying in the corner.
"Ngh-", Hisashi moved quickly and picked him up. "Izuku.. son wake up.", he shook Izuku walking up to his room and laying him in bed.
"Mhn?..", Izuku sniffled and looked at his dad. "Daddy..? Hi.", he mumbled.
"Why were you downstairs in the corner alone?", he asked.
Izuku looked away thinking of earlier. "M-mommy put me in timeout..", he explained.
Hisashi rose and eyebrow. "Whys that?.", he asked sternly.
Izuku teared up. "I was just trying to help..", he began to break down as he started to cry all over again. "I thought.. I thought she'd be h-happy.. and she wasn't.", he cried completely breaking down. "Mommy doesn't love me.. I just wanted to help! And sh-she was being mean!", he sobbed sniffling.
Hisashi tensed up and wiped his tears. "Shh.. shh.. it's ok.. what'd you do..?", he asked.
"I thou-thought mommy was.. was stressed.. so I made a sandwhich.. for her.. b-because sh-she takes care of me all the time- s-so I thought.. I would.. take care of her... b-but she yelled at me, and th-threw it away.. then put me in time outs..", he calmed as his father messed with his hair and comforted him.

Hisashi sighed, "well have you eaten today?..", he asked.

Izuku shook his head. "She puts me in time outs right after you left.. she said I couldn't move until by you came back..", he explained.
"Let go out and eat.. ok? And after.. we can stop by Mitsukis and say hi to your friend.",

Izuku wiped his eyes and nodded. "Oki..",

Hisashi picked him up and walked downstairs to the front door. He slipped his shoes on and grabbed his car keys.

"Where are you going?", Inko asked standing behind them.

Hisashi turned and glared at Inko. "Going out to eat. Without you.",
"Excuse me?", she asked with attitude. She placed a hand on her hip, she glared knifes at them.

"I said. We're going out to eat. Without you.", he grumbled as Izuku gripped his shirt.
"Lets go as a family.. we.. we have the money.. you want mommy to come, right Izuku?... you don't want to make mommy sad. Do you?",
Izuku shook his head as he started to tear up. "N-no mommy..", he mumbled.
"See Hisashi.. Izuku wants me to come too", she smiled knowing she won.
"Fine.", he growled and walked out as Inko followed.
