Loving again

Dabi's time away (side story)

Dabi's POV

I come back to the bar and sit in a booth. I go through my phone. I look on instagram. It's all so boring. My eyes widen at a picture mom posted.

It's a cinnamon roll from the cafe we went to. It said happy birthday Dabi love Mom. It's been a year since my birthday. She still remembers. She still cares. Why though why does she still care about me? I abandoned her.

Why does she love me so much? Why hasn't she just given up on finding me? I'm just some kid she picked up on the street. How is she still so, so her. She should be furious. She should just forget me all together. Yet she's too caring and loving.

It's like an incurable sickness to her. Please please just stop. Please stop being the mother you are. Just give up on me. Be disappointed. Forget me please mom. I grip my phone.

"Hey staples what's going on over there?" Shigaraki says. "Nothing just personal stuff." I say. I turn my phone off and put my head against the wall.

Time skip

I watch her from her store on the roof of the building across the store. She looks at a picture at me and tears up. I wish I could comfort her. Dad comes in. What the hell is he doing there? He buys some flowers. I just squint. I look at her. She looks disappointed. It looked like she kind of missed him. I should probably keep an eye on that.

He's been his normal angry self. She seems more irritated than anything. He comes back later that night. She loves him I know that. I want her to be happy. I know that he isn't in love with mother. I have a feeling he loves mom more.

I notice his reactions when he leaves her store everytime. Maybe she will soften him up. If he treats her wrong then I'll know. She could handle him herself but I'll be watching. The only thing in the way is the monster herself. I need to get her out of the picture. She'll only be locked in the hospital for the rest of her life.

Plus she's never been a good mother. This could be good for Fuyumi, Natsuo and, Shoto in the long run. They'll be sad for a little while but with mom she makes everything feel like everything is okay that nothing could ever go wrong while she's around. They deserve a mom that loves them back. Like a real mom should. I look at my hands. Could I really do this kill her?

"You're out here again I see." Kurogiri says. "Yeah." I say. "Why is it that you come here all the time yet you don't go talk to her." He asks. "I can't. I hurt her to bad. If I came back. She'd only be mad at me or something. I'd just be hurting her more." I say. I get up. "Could I ask you something?" I ask. "Sure." He says.

"If you were to kill someone that you knew. You felt like killing them was the only way to fix the problem your in. How would you do it?" I ask. "Well if you want someone dead and you don't want to leave any evidence. I wouldn't use your fire. It could connect you to the death. Just think of all the pain you've felt from them. Everything you've had to endure in life. Then it'll come easy." He says. "Thank you that really helps." I say. "Do you need transportation right now?" He asks. "Yes could you get me into Fujiya hospital. First I'll need to get a few things." I say.

Time skip

The hospital is closed. I find her room and open the door then lock it behind me. She wakes up. I cock the gun. I run to cover her mouth and put the gun to her head. "Scream and I'll kill you right now." I say. She nods.

I uncover her mouth. "Why are you doing this?" She asks. "That's none of your business." I say. "I don't mind dying. I just want to be free from this pain I'm always in." She says. "Then I'll make this easier on the both of us." I say. I give her a pen and papers. "Write your final words and I'll finish my job." I say.

She does so. "Get up and turn around." I say. She does so. "I'm sorry about this. This would have never happened if you were a better mother." I say. "What?" She says. I snap her neck. I hold her and drag her to the window. I throw her out. I tear up a bit. I wipe my face and call Kurogiri. "Could you bring me back to the bar?" I ask. "Yes I'm sorry this had to be done." He says. "Yeah me too." I say.

End of this
