A Helping Hand (Hiro X Reader)

Chapter 12--"Callaghan vs. (Y/L/N)"

Guide:

(M/N): Mother's Name

Mr. Lacitier was now completely alone as he looked through the evening newspapers, waiting for your arrival. However, hours passed when you last called him saying you were heading back, and yet you still haven't shown up at the door. Where were you?

Shrugging, he got up from the couch and sighed, heading over to the kitchen and picking up the phone there. He then proceeded to look through the huge address book until he found the contact number for the Lucky Cat Cafe.

"I can't believe I'm doing this," he muttered to himself, dialling the number. It wasn't long before Aunt Cass picked up.

"Hello, my name is Cass Hamada from the Lucky Cat Cafe!" she chirped. "How may I help you?"

Now how was Mr. Lacitier going to tell her that you were possibly kidnapped?

"Um, hello Ms. Hamada," he started off. "I'm Mr. Lacitier, (Y/N)'s guardian."

"Oh! So you are the new guardian that (Y/N) has been talking about earlier!" Aunt Cass cried. "I'm so glad to hear from you. What's going on?"

Mr. Lacitier took a breath. "Well...it's about (Y/N). Has she already left your cafe?"

"Mhmm," she nodded. "She left about 2 hours ago. Has she come back yet?"

"That's the problem," he said. "She's not back yet. I don't know where she could be."

Little did he know that Hiro was eavesdropping on the conversation from upstairs, where he knew Aunt Cass was talking with Mr. Lacitier about you. To hear that you haven't returned home when it has been so long...he couldn't help but begin to worry. Where could you be?

"Well, do you want me to call the police?" Mr. Lacitier asked. "I mean...I honestly don't know what to do. I'm new to this whole guardian thing and I just want to make sure she's okay...without me having to hurt her or do anything bad. I have already seen (F/N), her father, pass away from someone poisoning his drink. And then to hear that (M/N) died to alleviate depression also broke my heart. I don't want to lose (Y/N) too."

Again, Hiro couldn't believe his ears. Aunt Cass was talking on speaker phone so he heard every word...and yet...he couldn't help but think that Mr. Lacitier actually cared for you. Despite the fact that he looked creepy, he knew you had a point-no one can just look on the surface of things to determine the kind of person someone is. He was surprised that Mr. Lacitier would care for you like you were his daughter. Would you open up to him the same way he wanted to to you?

"Well..." Aunt Cass breathed a sigh. "I guess we can-"

"Aunt Cass?" Hiro couldn't wait any longer. "Can I talk to Mr. Lacitier for a moment?"

Aunt Cass nodded. "My nephew actually wants to talk with you."

Mr. Lacitier nodded on the other end of the line. "Alright. Thanks for letting me know, Ms. Hamada."

"Call me Aunt Cass," she insisted, though her voice hinted a smile.

The phone was then passed to Hiro. "Hello?" he asked.

"Hi. I'm Mr. Lacitier, (Y/N)'s guardian. Are you Hiro?"

"Yes I am," Hiro said.

"Hi Hiro," Mr. Lacitier smiled, going over to the kitchen counter and preparing himself a cup of tea.

"Hello Mr. Lacitier," Hiro greeted back. "Um, this is going to sound a little crazy, but...somehow I have a feeling she has been kidnapped. I'm not sure what makes me say this, but I had a talk with my healthcare nurse bot, Baymax-"
