36 Inner Sadis (1/2)
Izuku returned home with an uneasy feeling.
'I am tired. She said that she would come tomorrow as well. Okay, it looks like I can befriend her by giving her food, which is good, since I still need to complete the mission. Life is so hard.. I wonder how would I live without a quirk?' Izuku thought.
Seeing Izuku's tired face, his mom couldn't help but worry as she approached him from behind. ”Izuku dear. What is wrong? Are you sad that you won't see your classmates anymore?'
'I've always felt bad, since she is probably the only person I've been constantly lying to. About my friends, about not having a quirk, and much more. Why didn't I tell her the truth? I honestly don't know. Maybe I am just afraid of what she might think about me, lying to her all this time.'
”I am fine mom, I am just tired.” Izuku replied.
”Okay then. But you know, if you ever have a problem, you can always talk to me.” Inko replied.
Izuku nodded and said, ”I am really fine. The hero that trains me is really hard on me. He wants to be sure that I pass the U.A. exam.”
'I told my mother that a certain hero wanted to train me, but I didn't tell her that All Might was the one.'
”Are you preparing food for yourself again? You know you don't have to do that, if you are tired, I can make it for you.” Inko said.
”It's fine, I always do it myself, but this time, I am not sure what to make.” Izuku said.
”Hm? What do you mean? Just make some toasts or something.” Inko replied.
”Mom, what food do girls like? Because I met a girl today, and I want to make her a tasty bai- Food but I can't decide what to do.”
Inko widened her eyes and exclaimed, ”A girl?! Is it Katsuro, or that Itsuka girl?”
”None of them, you said you wanted to help me with something so tell me..” Izuku said.
Inko thought for a while, before she responded, ”If it's food, then definitely some sweets or deserts. Every woman likes sweets. I personally prefer deserts though.”
”Yeah. I can see. You are fat.” Izuku murmured
'IZUKU! How could you! That word is banned!” Inko cried out.
'Damn it! My stupid habit! It kinda slipped out.. Oh well, nothing I can do now. She is just gonna nag me about it whole night. I don't understand women. If she is so annoyed when I call her fat, why doesn't she just exercise?' Izuku sighed.
”Are you listening to me?! I am not that fa- Plump.”
'Oi, she almost said the F word as well.'
”Mom, I am sorry, but this is reality. You are fat. This talk is over.” Izuku started preparing the deserts while leaving his depressed mother sulking in the living room.
Before going off to sleep, he silently crawled into his mom's room while she watched her soap operas.

The following day.
Izuku arrived at the beach, but All Might wasn't anywhere in sight.
Izuku wondered why he didn't call All Might last night. Murderer like Himiko Toga was highly dangerous. It was probably because of the mission. Although there wasn't any drawback for not completing it, Izuku felt that the quest wasn't as simple.
”Hi Izeru! Training today as well?”
A cute murderer scared him from behind.
”Toga-san.. Don't just sneak on people.. I was seriously scared there. Also, my name is Izuku, not Izeru. Get it right.” Izuku replied.
”Hehe” Himiko grinned in joy.
'I thought she was about to stab me for a moment, can't leave my guard down at all. This girl is completely ill. I can't predict her at all.'
”So.. Are you just going to watch me.. Or what will you do today?” Izuku asked.
”Hmm. Probably.. I have nothing to do anyway, since I don't attend a school anymore.” Himiko replied.
”Why is that? Was it too boring?” Izuku inquired.
”Nah.. Well yeah, but I killed like 2 people so I had to run.” Himiko replied.
'I am not even gonna comment on that one. Why did I even ask? What did I even expect? Let's just pretend I didn't hear it.'
