Inko:before...before I met toshinori I was in a relationship with someone else her name was Shūko Nimi she was one of the happiest people I ever met that what drew me to her she wanted to be a hero that saves everyone with a smile..

Izuku:what happened?

Inko:she went on an undercover mission to a abandoned building that was suspected of having human trafficking turns out there was she was alone and had to fight 15 armed guards with extremely powerful quirks and she won but she lost all of blood the survivors told me that the last thing she did was look at them all and smiled before taking a picture of me and kissing it..

Izuku:im sorry for you're lost but that didn't exactly help me

Inko:maybe there is no point maybe I just wanted to tell you a story

*inko finished her smoke*

Inko;or maybe I wanted to tell you you're not alone I've been where you are right now I know the fear you're feeling if you ever need someone to talk to about this I'm here for you as a colleague and maybe a future friend even if I'm twice you're age

*both chuckled at that izuku calmed down a little just enough for his body to give up and collapsed inko got him his body finally gave up and passed out inko felt a sense of warmth she only feels with izumi that made her fears a little bigger but she ignored that feeling for now*

Inko:alright big guy let's find you a bed..
