Episode 2

I walked into my room and saw my mother, laying there... Dead. I just stood there... I didn't say a word. No tears fell. I didn't feel anything. There was a note on the nightstand so I picked it up and it read: Y/n, if you're reading this then i assume you see my rotting, dead, lifeless body laying on the floor in front of you. This hurts you doesn't it. Well guess what... I don't care! I never loved you and nobody ever will! But... there are people coming for you. They want my money. Go to Izuku's house and hide there. Inko knows everything. Bye Child.\~\~

I shrugged off my mother's death and packed my bags to go to Izuku's house. Once I was done, I heard a knock at the door. Assuming it was the 'bad people', I went out through the window. Might as well obey mothers orders for once. I ran the back way to Izu's house and knocked on the door. Inko answered.

"Hey Y/n. Come on inside. I made cookies" she gave me a sad smile. It kind of angered me to think that she probably saw me as a little kid and that I cant take care of myself. I stepped into the house and gave Inko a hug. "So where is Izu?" I asked trying to sound as sad as I could. Truth is, I couldn't care less. "He is upstairs taking a shower. He should be down in a bit,". I nodded in response and sat down on the couch

Background music here (optional):

I was listening to music when I felt one of my earbuds being taken out. I turned around to see Izu standing there with a worried look on his face. He had my other bud in his ear. I motioned for him to sit and he did. We sat there listening to music for the rest of the song and when it was over, Izu pulled me into a hug while he said, "Tell me what's wrong y/n.... tell me and I'll finally listen" My eyes widened at Izu's words. Does he... blame himself? Me and Izuku were sitting in silence for a few seconds until I felt a throbbing pain in my shoulder. I winced and Izu pulled away.

"What's the matter y/n?" He asked me worriedly. "Huh?... Oh it's nothing,". I hoped he would buy it but I guess I was wrong... again. "I'm gullible but I'm not an idiot. Tell me what's wrong". He was right. I was acting like he was stupid. I sighed in defeat. "Ok... truth is, when I pinned Kacchan against the wall, I hurt my shoulder blade. It's no biggie.". Suddenly, Inko popped up behind us. "No biggie!?!? You could be dead right now if you didn't tell us!". And with that, Inko started running around the house looking for bandages or a sling.

"Inko, I said I'm fine" Then she nodded with a smile and went back to the kitchen.
