Chapter 2: a lot of good things today (edited)
"Oh, sorry", her voice became weak.
"Why? you didn't take my quirk."
"But it's bad not to have a quirk and worse that I'm talking about that."
I looked at her and let out a small laugh. "I wish all the people were innocent like you, little Manami."
"They should"
"Yes, they should"
Without any Introduction, a felt like a metal club hit my head
In parts of the second, my brain started to work and my grip on the child got tighter as I flew to the wall
I crashed into the wall, and I had my vision of who attacked, and for God's sake, it was a hero "Let the kid go, you evil villain."
The blood flowed from my head. "You are finally here," he got confused by my response.
I let go of my hands, but Manami didn't let go when I saw that, and he saw it. I put my hand on her head softly, playing with it "Don't be afraid, it's the hero."
She started crying, 'She may get hurt. Maybe my body didn't absorb the full damage' That was what I thought, but what I felt was the fear that was escaping from her.
She didn't let go of me "Look, Almight is here", I said in shock.
And she looked and saw the cops and the heroes. "I told you the heroes have reached to save you."
I modified my sit and gave her a very warm hug "Now go, they will take you home."
"But what about you"
"Me, I have a school waiting."
The cops get closer, and the hero that just hit me "I'm really sorry I didn't, um… you just looked..."
I didn't respond to him and held the kid and tried to stand, and I did it; I felt dazed, and the world was spinning, but I could walk somehow.
Took her to the police. they questioned me, and for my luck, the video I recorded was the best evidence that I wasn't the villain. I also gave the cups some clear photos of the fuckers that ran.
After some time and confirming that I didn't use any quirk and some paper works
"So, I think it's goodbye" I talked to the little Manami.
"Yes, I think it's goodbye."
We walked out of the alleyway, and we had separate roads.
After taking some steps to the school, I heard the voice of the little one again on my back "BIG BROTHER!!!"
I turned to see her in the light smiling at me "Thank you, MY HERO"
Those words were something. Something that I always wanted to hear but I couldn't. The smile that was brighter than the sun and the innocent face of a child thanking me from the heart. Her smile was something that I lost the hope of seeing in my life. My eyes got wet all was just calling the memories of my mother. "I told you; you will find the smile that you lost in the smiles of the other, my dear son", her voice echoed in my head. She talked to me after all those years I finally heard her voice again. I turned and continued my way to the school wiping my tears all the way. I had some trouble with the teachers as I got late by an hour, but after giving them the written message from the cops, they let it go, and I continued my day.
"So, you look pretty. Why don't you kiss me." the cow face harassed Akari. The brown-haired Akari got into the corner with 3 boys surrounding her, and the girls watched with smiles from a near distance. I took out my phone. "Let me go" she was struggling. "Why should I? I will, but first, give me a French kiss, and I will let you go". The cow face said. "Go away", she continued, straggling in his hands. "Hold her hands. I'm going take what I want", he ordered the one next to him." I'm after you", that one on the right gripped her hand. The cow face took his hand and tried to touch her.
The raised hand was stopped. "Get away" I looked like a true villain and the dry blood covered a lot of parts of my clothes. All took a look at me and started laughing "What are you going do, big hero." I took my phone out with my thump on the posting bottom "destroying all your future if you wish." I smirked under the bandage. Their skin got pale "You won't do it or…" I continued from here ", or what? I don't have anything to lose". They took their tills between their legs and left.
I gave the standing girls a look, "ugly bitches" and directed my words to them with my eye. "What did you call us?" They started yelling at me, told me worse things and then I was taken to the principal and had a talk with him again. I had my 19 punishments for this week. 'I'm near breaking my last record', I joked, but today was the day that my mother's image didn't leave all the time. My tears dropped all the time, and my mind blinked all the time. for most of the day, I was happy.
After school, the one that I had scared with the video gathered some fuckers and turned me into a boxing bag. The day finally ended, and after my time on the roof of the school and the dinner, now with nothing more to remember, I just let my mind get some rest. The calmest time I had in the day was the time when all was getting dark, and I slept.
In the dark and after many years I saw the door. That door is the home door. I run to the door and open it fast to just see it. She is standing there with a smile on her face. "I told you, you will find the smile that you lost in the smiles of the others." That lovely lady with green hair always brightened my day, my night, and my life. My mom. I ran to here as the time ran backwards, and I returned to the child that I was once. I jumped into her open arms, and my tears turned into rain "Hoy hoy, my little hero. I'm not going anywhere." Her warm whispers in my ear and her soft hands rubbing my back. I didn't speak; I just cried in my mom's arms. All I wanted happened, and a lot of my desires came to reality in one day. We stay like that for an unknown time, and I'm not sad about that. All I want is just to enjoy my mom's hug to the end. I just want to feel it again.
Hours and hours passed, and we just stayed there like that till "Look, my time is over, son, and you won't see me again. I wish that I could stay longer" She looked at me the eyes that were filled with tears again. "I'm not leaving you like that what about I give you a gift." She said, "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, all I want is you. just stay for some more time I I I" I couldn't form a sentence. "My little hero, I know, but I can't. They are calling." Her hand reached my head and started to rub it. "Just don't reply, stay with me. I can't live without you." I begged her, "Don't worry, I will always be with you, but you won't be able to see me." She tried to make it easier but for who? I never spoke again I didn't find the words. "My beloved little hero. I will give you my quirk, the real form of my quirk." She said and waited, but there was no response. "I had once the quirk of push and pull with my hands, but after some action, I lost it, and all that stayed was a broken part of pull" She stopped and took a very deep breath in and let it out. "My little hero I'm very proud to be the mother of the next symbol of peace, Midoriya." A pull force started to pull me from the arms of my mom "No, wait, wait, Mom, don't leave me, Mom!" I screamed, but the force didn't stop. "it's goodbye, my little hero." Her last words. I can't hold it anymore, and I'm pulled through the door that shut with a thunder sound, and then I wake up.
I set up in horror I can't do, act or even think straight. All I'm capable of doing is crying in silence.
Am I sad?
Yes
Am I mad?
Yes
Was she the reason?
NEVER
I remember one of her sentences "My little hero always smiles even when life is tough" I put a smile on my face and let the tears pour "So the peace symbol" I take an oath on myself that no matter what and how and why and every fucking question that ever existed in this fucking world I would smile 'I will make you proud. watch me, Mom.'
For my luck, today was Friday, and I didn't have to meet Katsuki, but I had to go to school. I had nearly two hours till the first class, so I took a paper and wrote something on it and then opened the internet and searched for half an hour. After that, I put the pen on the table and tried to pull it towards me. Nothing happened in the first, but after that, I was able to move it a little. I kept training for an hour, and I could pull it towards my hand, but I still couldn't do it good or fast, so I would continue after school.
For the first time in many years, I smiled. The people who knew me had a confused look in their faces. I walked in steps of silence, but in a strong and steady one, I would change myself even if it was hard. I entered the school, and all eyes were on me with a smiley face.
The whispers: "Is he smiling." "What happened did the sky fall." "Look at him…" Everyone was stunned. 'I was quirkless, not pessimistic,' I thought. I entered the class to find Katsuki there. He was shocked to see me smile. Akira was there too, and she looked shocked but also happy.
