「 Yaoyorozu's POV 」

"Why did you call out after that bastard?" Kei hissed at me, staring down at me with his milky white eyes.

Ah, yes, my new partner in life. Tanaka Kei. A controlling, rich figure. I had been set up with him by the order of my father. I hated him, down to the core, but I had no choice but to stay with him. We had gotten engaged for some reason, and I wanted it to end already. Considering that he never made me happy, yelled at me for unusual reasons, made me do everything even when I was exhausted from work. He resembled my father in a lot of ways, which made me more uncomfortable than I had already been before in his presence. Kei might be blind, but he sees more than anyone in this world.

"We went to U.A together, we are very good friends," I tried to combat his angry voice all while not raising my own to anything else but a gentle whisper. That was something else he had forced me to do in his presence.

"Good friends? I cannot allow that," he dug his nails into my arm, making me wince from the pain.

"But-" 

"Silence. You do as I say, and that is final, let's go." he started to pull me from the train station and towards our residence.

I bit down on my lip as he was pulling me towards the residence we lived in, I had to hold myself back from crying, I wanted to run away, I wanted to go back to how it was before, I wished I could have been single for the rest of my life if that was the case, it would be the best for my mental, and physical health either way.

I sighed as I walked up to the office that I had all of my paperwork in, I gently locked the door after me and sat down behind my desk, unlocking a cabinet and getting out a bottle of alcohol. I opened the bottle and put it to my lips, taking a swig.

Feeling the rough beverage hit my tongue I couldn't help but scrunch up my nose slightly as I took another swig. I realized as I sat there behind my desk, Todoroki's birthday was in a few days. I tapped my lip with my index finger, feeling my nail against my upper lip. I thought about it, maybe I could distract Kei and manage to get out for once. I couldn't be locked in here forever, I had already ignored him enough, it was time for me to actually interact with my old friend.

I let out a a sigh and put the bottle down on the table, feeling the alcohol take an effect on my system. How could I not drink some when I was together with an asshole like Kei? I let out a breath and started to search for suitable gifts for Todoroki. Knowing that he had cats, maybe cat toys? I knew that I could create some of my own, but I assumed that I could find better ones on the web.

Hearing my partner having a fit of rage downstairs, I couldn't help but sigh. The sigh that escaped my lips was one of frustration, disappointment and sadness, all mixed into one sigh. I sometimes wished that I hadn't ended it with Todoroki, although it could have been a much worse, I still wished that I was still together with him. Maybe we could have worked through it.

I felt tears of regret escape my eyes as I hung my head in my hands, starting to sob quietly to myself. I reached for the bottle of alcohol and accidentally knocked it over onto the floor, the contents of the bottle spilling out all over the carpet stretching across the floor. 

I felt frustration build up inside of me as I fell down from my chair and onto the floor, picking up the bottle to check if there was anything left inside of it, of course there was. I downed the alcohol left in the bottle, my sobs becoming louder as I sat there on the ground.

I slapped myself, gently, looking up at the ceiling. I heard the smattering of rain against the window, I glanced over and saw the sky dark with rain clouds. I wiped my tears and got up, walking up to the doors to my office and unlocking them before rushing down the stairs and out into the garden, sitting down on a bench and feeling the rain hit my body.

( following scene is a flashback scene! )

                                                                           ﹎

I had called Todoroki early from work, I needed to talk to him. I had just turned 19, and mine and Todoroki's relationship had become.. Rather unstable. We had been arguing frequently for the past months, and my father had become increasingly unhappy with our relationship. He had recently threatened to cut contact with me if I didn't do something about my relationship with Todoroki, and my emotions had become a huge mess.

I had been going for weeks, attempting to build up the courage to break up with him. But to no use, I was too afraid, I was too attached to him to just leave. But now, with pressure from my family, I felt that I had no other choice. I had gathered strength, and I was ready to release it all onto Todoroki.

I was sitting in the park were we were supposed to meet with closed eyes and a hand on my chest, taking deep breaths. I only stopped when I heard Todoroki's voice call my name. My eyes fluttered open and I saw him come walking towards me with a soft smile on his face.

I got up and led him underneath one of the big oak trees in the park, taking a deep breath, "Todoroki~san.. I have been.. Thinking for the past few days and.." I felt my heart throb, I didn't want to do it.

"Thinking about.. what..?" he asked, raising an eyebrow and looking at me. His voice had become stern.

"I think-" my breath got stuck in my throat and I didn't manage to choke anything else out. To my surprise, Todoroki was silent and let me try to speak.

After a while of breathing, I finally managed to say it, "I'm breaking up with you."

The words echoed out, and I could see Todoroki getting a dark look in his eyes, "what? why? what did I do?" he asked, his voice becoming stern.

I felt myself begin to cry, "just- don't-" I took a step back, the tears streaming down my face, ruining the makeup I had on. My heart was throbbing.

Todoroki took a step forward towards me again, "no, tell me! what did I do wrong?" he asked, grabbing my wrist.

After a while of arguing about it, I tried to get him to let go of my wrist, but to no use. I finally had enough and raised my hand, slapping him directly across the cheek, managing to get him to let go of my wrist, "just get away from me! It's over, Todoroki!" I screamed at him, turning around and running off, my crying becoming louder and the tears starting to burn as they streamed down my cheeks.

                                                                           ﹎

I heard Kei yell at me from inside of the house, I opened my eyes and looked at him, the rain was still pouring down. I shook my head and closed them again, feeling my heart throb at the memory of our breakup. Maybe it wouldn't be so bad if I broke it off with Kei. Maybe it was worth loosing the connection with my parents. If it were for him.

Sorry for the Delay in chapters ;/
