•°•°• Reader's Point of View •°•°•

   The day of the graduation ceremony arrived, with my body still lazily lying on my bed. It's six in the morning and I couldn't bring myself to remove the covers above me. I'm bothered about something, something that creeped the hell out of me.

   I was having a pleasant dream last night. It was all about me, reuniting with my mother. But, apparently, even dreams doesn't go your way. After a nanosecond, she vanished all of a sudden, and what appeared was a silhouette of some unknown person.

   Based from her features, she's a female. She got this strange expression in her face, with an uncanny smile curving on her lips. Sure, her appearance looked eerie but, it seems there's something else that's missing. And I can't put my finger on it.

   Just recalling the nightmare, gives me a headache. With a sigh, I sprung out of bed and went my way to the washroom. After taking a warm shower, I quickly put on my middle school uniform. This will be the last time I'm wearing this outfit.

   Exiting the room, I walked to the kitchen, preparing myself breakfast. I'm not that good in cooking for I am the only one who eats my food since I'm alone. And every time I taste my cooking, I always tell myself that it's better to finish the food than waste it. I don't actually care about its flavor, as long as it will provide me energy, there's nothing else wrong to it.

   You must be wondering why I'm up in such an early time. I am both a morning and a night person, it will vary if there's something I should do, like set this as an example: If I'm hooked at some particular manga, and planned to stay up late at night or have myself a walk down the seaside early in the morning. I'm weird, right?

   It was quarter to seven when I was done eating breakfast. I made the final touches to my appearance before heading to the door. Once I got out of the apartment, I felt the warm breeze hitting my cheeks.

   My middle school is not that far from where I live, so I took this chance to roam around the community for the meantime. I passed along the seaside, which is still dumped with garbage. Guess, I'll never see the beauty of the horizon ever again.

   "[L/N]-san?" A voice I can recognize everywhere, startled me from behind. Although I acted sort of a klutz, I steadied myself before tripping over.

   "You're. . . That boy from before." I said, turning around to see him. He was drenched by his own sweat. What the hell was he doing anyway this time of the day?

   He giggled so softly, rubbing the nape of his neck as he averted my gaze. I can see a tint of pink dusting his freckled face. It suits him, actually. "Ye-yeah. I see you haven't known my name yet." The dark green haired male added, now facing me. "I'm Izuku Midoriya!"

   "Nice to meet you, Midoriya-san." I gave my regards as well. I remembered I told him my name so I didn't bother to repeat the same thing over again. It became silent after that, or you can say, awkward. Well, as for me, this can kill time.

   "Um," Midoriya-san managed to speak. "You still have school?" He asked in a polite way possible.

   I nodded my head. "Yeah. Today's actually our graduation ceremony-"
