The Milkyway

part 14

   
      I was purely surprised. I haven't seen my mother in a year. When I joined the villains I had found her and  talked to her. She ended up crying knowing that I was still alive. But then she cried out of sadness... Knowing that my sanity had slipped.

    I sat up straight and wiped a couple tears from my face. "I don't know about it... She seemed disappointed in me the last time I saw her. I think she hates me." He sighed and shook his head.

     "She loves you with all her heart and is waiting for you to say hi at the very least. She wants to see you..." All Might looked me In the eyes as he said this and I came to the decision that... I wanted to see my mother. I missed her greatly...

Time skip-

        All Might dropped me off in front of a house... My house ... and said he had to leave. I swear... There has to be something up with him... I don't know what but something. The door suddenly swung open to reveal a short woman. She looked like she was in her early thirties when in fact she was in her late forties. White hair that was cut at the shoulders. She had bags under her eyes from all the sleepless nights hoping that her children would come back... Or even just one. This beautiful woman standing at the door was my mother.

  
      Her eyes widened and tears started to well up. Seeing her like this made me tackle her in a hug. I didn't want to leave her. But I had to... And now seeing her again makes me want to take care of my mother.

    "Mom! I'm sorry I left. I'm sorry I couldn't protect and save Kuma! I'm sorry that I disappointed you.... I love you Mom." She hugged me tighter than ever and she didn't let go for about a minute or so. When she did let go she slapped me.

 
     "Asuma! It's really you baby! It's really you! I'm sorry about slapping you I just couldn't believe it! It's really you hunny! Oh my lord!" She took my hand and led me inside of the house. It was tidy... It still smelled like the last time I was here... So... Mom was the same. The house was the same... the only question left...

    Was me and Kuma's room the same?

    "Hey Mom... Um... Our room... Does it still look untidy and messy? Can I look?" She nodded. I could tell she was glad to have me back. I went down the familiar narrow hall from only two years ago although it seemed like an eternity. I entered the room and flipped on the dim light.

     It was almost untouched... Our things were cleaned up but.... Other than that everything was the same. Kuma's hero posters on his side of the room.... Half the room was yellow and half was purple. Mine was the purple side. His the yellow. A picture of me and him left on the nightstand beside both of our beds. It was a picture of when we were kids... It was the day we figured out what our quirks were and mom ended up teleporting us there to have a picnic. The same place I took Bakugou star gazing. I picked up the picture frame with the picture and grabbed one of my old bags from the side of the room. It was an All Might bag ironically.

    I grabbed Kuma's Action figures of his favorite pro heros. Present Mic. All Might. Endeavor. Best Jeanist. And last but not least the sea hero who's name I think is Orca. Either that or killer whale. His all time favorite though was someone that wasn't on the news. It was infact... My teacher... Eraserhead. Eraser was his favorite because Kuma met him and he saved Kuma's life. Kuma practically wanted to be Eraserhead.

   I put Kuma's white scarf in the bag. It was his Eraserhead scarf. So far I had my picture of me and him, his action figures, and his Eraserhead scarf. I reached into his top dresser drawer and grabbed his earings. That's how people could tell us apart if it wasn't mom. He wore earings and I didn't.

      I picked up his skull earings and I put them in my pocket. I don't know what else I really wanted to take back home with me... I sat on his bed. The yellow walls reminded me of his bright personality. He was always laughing, always happy, and most of all always hungry! I laughed to myself remembering the time he accidentally ate cat food instead of chili that mom made. The cat got mad and scratched him. It was funny.

     I saw that his pillow was stuffed with something. I grabbed it and pulled it out. It looked like it was a birthday or Christmas present of sorts because it was rapped with a note on it. It was for my birthday....  He had a gift for me... I stuffed it in the bag along with a few more things and left the room. I couldn't handle it. I spent time with Mom and ate dinner with her. She was lonely and I said that I could fix that and I will. I'm going to get her a cat soon.

   I left the house and entered my apartment Russell barked lightly and came to greet me while I set the bag in my bedroom and went into the living room to hang out a little while.

    I wonder what the present is and what the letter says....
