Trust Me

The Confrontation

"Please stand up.", Uraraka said quietly.

Hisashi got out of his position and immediately rose.
She took a deep breath and looked over at Midoriya who was throbbing with the obvious tension.

"Izuku, do you mind if I have a couple minutes alone with your father?"

He looked at her wildly seeing she was about to puke just a couple of minutes ago. He looked at him and her and nodded his head.

"N-No problem. I'll ring the button again."

As soon as Midoriya exited, Uraraka sat criss cross mode on the floor and put her arms on her legs.

"How are you feeling, sir?"

Hisashi stared at her while silent tears went from his eyes.

"Uravity, I am so s-sorry, I-I know there's nothing I can say"-

"I asked how you were feeling first."

"I...I'm fine. More or less..."

She took in a deep breath and blew it out. She looked around and straightened her lips.

This is crazy..., she thought.

"Can you...", she began. "...Can you be honest with me."

"Of course, anything."

"Did my friends, Fuyuko and Dai...what...what happened that day?"

"Well...I'll start off by saying it wasn't their fault. Truly. I hope Midoriya told you that much."

"A little late, but yeah."

"Okay. Uhm, well the people I used to work with had given me items to make certain quirks at my disposal. It was a liquid that I had formed and sprayed all of you with. I thought I did at least, but you weren't affected."

"What quirk?"

"Mind-control."

Uraraka was silent for a moment and felt the tears swell in her eyes.

"They um, they did try to fight it!", he piped. "While you were fighting one of my colleagues, they did try. I just...convinced them that you would be okay, and that's when they went under total submission. I just"-

"Shut your mouth!", she breathed.

"I'm sorry.", he said nodding profusely.

"No, no.", she said holding her head. "I'm sorry, I just...I just got a little overwhelmed. I'm sorry."

He didn't say anything until Uraraka spoke up again, but was in absolute shock this girl even had the gual to apologize to him. Reminded him of his son.

"I believe you, I do."

"I truly am sorry, Ms.Uravity. From the bottom of my soul."

"I-", she started her voice cracking. "I thought I hated you so much. I wanted to. I thought it was justified. I wanted the people around me to tell me how entitled I was to my feelings...to made sure I never forgave you because you didn't deserve it."

He nodded his head and looked at the ground.

"But what really gets me is that I really tried to hide those feelings of entitlement.", she said the tears rolling down.

He looked up with widened eyes.

"I tried to pretend that I really wasn't angry with you and that I was a peaceful person. That I was this good hero who could forgive those who wronged me, because I thought that would make me seem better, but the longer and harder I try, the worse I feel."
