After the trio talking for quite some time, Katsuki and Izuku were forced to leave, promising to come back the next day. 

  "It's bath time, Keiko," Peony said, clasping her hands together as she moved the female into a wheelchair. Peony pushed the hospital room door open with her foot and wheeled Keiko out and into the bathrooms.

Peony sat with Keiko in the gardens, sitting under the Japanese cherry blossoms. Sakura petals fell from Keiko's in synchronized form with the blossoms. The pink petals floated and danced with one another, floating to the ground only to be left there; forgotten. 

  "Look, Keiko," Peony instructed. "It's Mrs. Todoroki. Would you like to speak with her." Keiko gave her caretaker a smile and began to nod. Peony stood up and smoothed her outfit, then grabbed the handles to Keiko's wheelchair and began pushing her to a female with white hair.

  "Ah, Keiko!" Mrs. Todoroki called out, waving Peony and Keiko over to her. She was currently sitting on a bench, hands clasped together as she watched the sunset.

  "I will come back in a few minutes," Peony piped up, beginning to leave as she left Keiko to sit beside Mrs. Todoroki.

  "You're Mrs. Todoroki, right?" Keiko asked, scratching her pink head. "Sorry if I'm wrong... my memory hasn't been the best, ya know?" She asked, cracking a small smile as the older woman smiled and nodded.

  The two basked in a comfortable silence, Keiko's petals gracefully falling from her scalp and fading away before they could touch the ground.

  "You're 16, right?" Mrs. Todoroki asked out of nowhere. She looked at Keiko who appeared to be deep in thought, but finally nodding whilst concluding 'I think so'. "I have a son your age; Todoroki Shouto. He goes to Yuuie High School," Mrs. Todoroki said. "I wish I could see him again. Tell him I love him and that I'm proud." She dryly chuckled, wiping away a few fallen tears.

  "I think my friends I-Izuku and Katsuki go to that school," Keiko breathed, happy she could remember something for once. 

They both basked in the silence, merely enjoying one another's presence.
