It was 9 o'clock in the morning, but the dark-haired girl was still falling asleep in the patient's bed, she might still be dreaming now
But her deep sleep did not last long, because suddenly the sound of birds in the morning was replaced by a knock on the door which she knew very well who was coming.
"Miss Toga, are you up already?" Knocking sound approach and the nurse's voice woke her from her deep sleep
"Yeah, wait for a second!" I wiped my grey eyes and stretched my body a bit then walked towards the door to open the door, I still feel very sleepy
And it was seen the nurse who usually came to give me breakfast, she brought a tray of food in her hand
"Good morning Miss Toga! How's your sleep?" She said cheerfully while putting the tray on the table
"Yeah, my sleep is not too good as usual," I said jokingly while looking into the food she brought
steamed rice, miso soup, a protein such as grilled fish, and various side dishes
A usual hospital breakfast that I always eat, sometimes I want to eat ramen for breakfast, I took the chopsticks and a sip of water
"Itadaki-masu" I make my hand in pray form and bowed a bit then eat the breakfast, it's not that bad
The nurse then checked my room, my medicine and saw my schedule today on the paper she brought
"For today you have to see Dr. Akira at 10 o'clock, don't forget Miss Toga" I just nodded my head in reply because I'm still munching my breakfast
"Do you need my help to make your bed?" the nurse asked with a smile while looking at me who still eating silently
It was a rare thing, because sometimes I will screaming and crying in the morning, but I think I'm feel better this day
"Thanks, but I can doing it by myself!" I shake my head to refuse and she just nodded her head
"Please don't forget to take your medicine and rest well Ms. Toga, I'm gonna take my leave, have a nice day" she bowed down and rubbing my back
"You too, have a nice day" I waved my hands to her and she replied the same action then take a leave
Because I was bored, I turned on the TV and saw that news was broadcast about the new heroes being accepted into U.A Academy
I'm a little jealous of the children in my age who can go to my dream school while I'm lying weak in the hospital, how lucky they are, I also want to be a hero
But I have to stay positive, maybe someday I can be a hero too? We don't know the future right
I continued listening to the news broadcast while making my bed after finishing my breakfast
"And for this year, Bakugou Katsuki took first place in the final exam!"
The announcer announced and I immediately looked at the screen with envious eyes
The blonde haired boy with a red glowing eyes who put on an annoyed face, why is he pissed off? even though he was already ranked first, very ungrateful
If I was him, I will very happy and trying my best to be a good hero, but I'm just a weak people who had a lot flaws, how can I be a hero? I'm being negative again then I shake my head immediately
Hey, it's ok! Beside if I doing the treatment nicely, I can recover soon and maybe become a hero too. I said to myself while smile widely feeling calm a bit
After tidying my bed, I saw that it was 9 o'clock now, it seems I should immediately take a shower and visit Dr. Akira for another treatment
Because that broadcast, I feel more enthusiastic about undergoing treatment and believe that I will get well soon
I took my towel and my clothes then went into the bathroom and closed the door, but I forgot to turn off the television, and the broadcaster haven't even announced the main thing yet but I already take a bath
"And it's rumored that today our new heroes will visit the Asakura hospital to comfort and having fun with the patients there! We're really looking forward"

In the other time but same places
In his deep sleep, something's hard hit his head and made him wake up immediately
"Oi Bakugou, are you going to sleep here forever?" Kirishima hit the blonde boy who seems disturbed and the blonde man then opened his red eyes slowly and saw the bus they were riding in stopped
"Huh, what a annoying activity" he slowly came out with an annoying gaze and lined up with the other class 1-A students who had gathered earlier.
Bakugou looked around him, they were in front of a 'special' hospital they said, but according to Bakugou this place only contains strange people who have nothing special.
But Bakugou never realized that there was a special person in this hospital
"Alright, everyone is gathered Mr. Aizawa!" Said Iida the head class after checking all the students and make sure everyone is here
Bakugou was silent while cursing silently why he should be in this place, it is better now to train strength in the arena of competition than do this boring thing.
"Alright, there is already a schedule and the division of places that you will go to and their location." Aizawa-sensei said in his usual lazy tone and gave a pile of paper to Iida, the tall boy took it and gave it to all the students with enthusiasm.
"Bakugou this is the paper, read well and don't make a mess, keep your attitude here" Iida gave the piece of paper while fixing his glasses, Bakugou accepted it lazily and agreed with the class president's words, even though he didn't intend to do it.
Bakugou looked at the paper he just received irritatedly and saw his name and the place he had to go to 'mental illness' which was on the 4th floor. Bakugou was immediately frustrated, maybe if only to the place of the elderly or other illness he would accept it, but he going to visit mentally ill people, this would be very troublesome
This hospital is special for people like that, but at least there are other patients that he can still handle, Bakugou's annoying nature starts to come out, he is really lazy to do things like this
Around him other students also talked about which places they would visit, some where elders were, internal diseases, the children, mental illnesses, and others. they seemed happy to do this, but not for person like Bakugou.
"Alright, because I have given the paper to each of you, now you can go to the designated place respectively" Iida said to all the students then one by one began to leave this place and headed to their respective places, only Bakugou remained silent for a long time and started walking at the back alone while grumbling
When entering the courtyard of this hospital, many people greeted him, but Bakugou continued to walk while putting his hand in his pocket, while everyone had gone to their respective places, some were on the first, second, third floor, to the north building and elsewhere, but suddenly an idea that was quite strange came to Bakugou's mind
Because I'm lazy to attend this event, what if I just go to the rooftop? I will relax there while waiting for them to finish with their business finished then come down when I want to go home? Bakugou thought to himself and a smirk appeared on his face indicating he was going to do that, something a 'hero' should not do.

"Good morning Miya, how are you today?" Dr. Akira soft voice made the dark haired girl realize from her reverie, Miya, who was initially staring at the window, immediately looked at Dr. Akira with gray eyes
"As usual, he always haunts me and told me to do it again" she said honestly with a bitter smile
"Miya, have you been taking medicine regularly and following therapy well?" Akira adjusted his glasses and kept smiling at this girl who always looks sad
"But Doctor, you once said. Patients with mental disorders can actually recover completely, as long as they are diligent in taking medication, therapy, routine medical check-ups, and what is equally important is getting support from their closest family," The black-haired girl said softly while lowering her head, avoiding Dr. Akira's gaze
"But Miya, there's something more important, you have to be able to forgive yourself." Miya looked straight at Dr. Akira with a questioning look, what did I do wrong?
"Miya, did you forget? We have the same quirk, Manipulation. Of course I can know what's on your mind that even you are confused whether the thought really exists" Dr. Akira looked into those gray eyes and brushed her black hair
"Sometimes you will definitely think if all this is your fault, the death of your father, the death of your mother, the disappearance of your sister, you feel it is all your fault. But there are also times when you forget about it, it is caused by your quirk that you can not control"
Everything made sense to Miya, since in the past she had rarely practiced her quirk. She has a unique quirk, but if she doesn't practice it, this quirk can bring out things that shouldn't be present.
Like bringing back the figure of her mother who had passed away to her, it had a big effect on the illness she was currently experiencing. And if left unchecked, her quirk can take her to a stage where she can only remember the worst things in her life.
And maybe this quirk is what made her feel guilty about things she never did, but when she wants to forgive herself, this quirk actually eliminates the feeling of 'guilt' and makes her trapped in this disease.
"You may find your quirk strange and use-" said Dr. Akira was cut off by the voice of the dark haired girl
"No Doctor! I don't think my quirk is strange or useless, I'm sure one day this quirk will also help me to recover from this disease, as my father said" the girl said in an excited voice, different from when she came a few hours ago.
Dr. Akira then looked at this girl with a happy gaze that almost shed tears, this girl is very strong, even she feels this shortcoming as her strength. one day she will definitely recover and become the hero she dreamed of
"Alright Miya, I'm sure you will get well, and don't forget to open your heart to new people, you know what I mean, maybe you can try to date a boy at your age?" Dr. Akira said holding back laughter and the girl's face immediately flushed red
"W-what do you mean Dr. Akira, I never thought of doing something like that" Miya said haltingly in embarrassment while crossing her hand and her cheeks continued to flush.
"Oh c'mon Miya, it will also help you to recover, did you know that AU students will visit this hospital? what if you get acquainted and talk with one of them?" The girl then looked at Akira with a confused look
"They will come here?" Miya asked, and her gray eyes showed that she was really excited right now
"Yes, so what are you waiting for? let's hurry up and ask one of them out!" Dr. Akira also said excitedly
"N-no, I'll just be friends with them, see you Dr. Akira and thanks for the day!" Miya said then stood up while waving her hand and ran out of the room, Dr. Akira can only laugh at the behavior of the girl who he considers his own daughter
Miya can't wait to meet those new heroes, and just like Dr. Akira said, if we can make lots of friends, these people can help me to recover
But all of those things immediately changed because of one thing that came again to Miya when she wanted to be happy
"Miya, this is dad, I miss you so much"

The other AU students seemed busy and happy with their new friend, they were having fun with the patients in this hospital, but not with the blonde boy who was climbing the stairs alone in silence.
Of course it's Bakugou Katsuki
Bakugou climbed the stairs from the first floor to the rooftop, the reason he didn't want to use the elevator was because he didn't want to run into other people or other AU students, and also Iida, surely he would be taken to a place he didn't want to go to. Climbing these stairs takes a long time because the rooftop is on the last floor of this tall building, but Bakugou doesn't really care
After walking for about 10 minutes to the rooftop, finally a yellow door with the words 'rooftop' appeared in front of Bakugou, Bakugou then looked around to make sure no one saw him, it was actually unnecessary because Bakugou was alone there.
He sighed in relief and smiled then held the doorknob then pushed it, a strong wind immediately greeted him and made his blonde hair messy and his red eyes closed because of the strong wind
But when he opened his red eyes again, not a view of the city could be seen, but a girl with a black hair whose blown by this strong wind, the girl was wearing a patient dress and she looked straight ahead right at the end of the building.
The girl just stood there as if talking to someone, but the girl stood calmly, she did not tremble at all seen from her back which did not tremble. even though if it was Bakugou or someone else, surely he would be a little scared because the girl was really at the end of the building, if she lost her balance a little, she could immediately fall down.
Bakugou immediately panicked, is this girl going to end her life? No, Bakugou had to do something or a girl's life would die in front of him.
This might be a little troublesome, but if a girl died in front of him, people would surely blame him for not preventing this girl. it might get him expelled from the AU Academy and he wouldn't become a stronger hero than All Might
Bakugou then thought quickly, at first he wanted to forcefully pull this girl away, but Bakugou instead walked towards the girl slowly, he didn't even know what he was going to do
"Hello Miss, are you listening to me?" Bakugou said with words that he never said before, Bakugou who was already a few inches from the girl asked with a little worry, because this girl might jump down anytime.
He gave his hand towards the girl who kept looking ahead, Bakugou looked down, did he just force this girl away from this place? because under the Bakugou was about tens of meters high and headed straight for the open field.
But before he thought any longer, he felt something very gentle welcoming the hand he gave earlier, Bakugou immediately looked at the girl who had now turned around and looked at Bakugou.
Their gazes met, Bakugou's red eyes immediately fall into the soft gray gaze before him, and the wind that was blowing turned slower but still blew out those blonde hair and long black hair, and Bakugou still held the girl's hand gently. It's just like in a movie, when the male lead meets half of his soul
This girl is like stole Bakugou's heart, she like wrapped in fragile air and her skin is pale but very soft, her gaze is very beautiful but she had a lonely gaze
Bakugou was silent in his place because he saw that girl, until finally the girl smiled sweetly at him, a smile that Bakugou rarely saw from others. like Bakugou's heart which was always full of explosions and anger calmed down at seeing that smile.
"Thank you for making me aware, hero!"
And at that time Bakugou realized there were more important things as a hero than having great strength, and it was thanks and the sweet smile of the person he saved.
