Chapter Text
I sat quietly with my husband Haruki as we were driven back to my mother-in-law's house, hand in hand.
"So, what do you want to do," he asked softly. We'd found out that we both had a recessive mutation for a rare genetic disorder, so rare in fact that it had not appeared in almost 30 years. So not only was almost every potential combination of our quirks unlikely to allow a child to live a normal life, there was a chance that even if they were quirkless, they would still have difficulty merely functioning.
"I...I really don't know."
He squeezed my hand gently, "we'll figure it out. We always do."
I had expected my second chance at life to be... more exciting, more eventful. But instead I had experienced peace, love and comfort I hadn't known in my last life. My husband, of course, knew that I had lived before, as well as the fact that I knew snippets of the future, but we had never gone into any real detail. And now, for some reason, I had to suffer through hardships once again, though of a very different kind to the troubled teenager I had once been.
He must have caught me starting to spiral into less than pleasant thoughts again as he opened up his palm to reveal a rose, and placed it into my hair, "I love you," he smiled sadly at me.
"I love you more."
His eyes softened, pale pink reflecting my blue-black, "we'll be ok."
I nodded, "just... give it some time."
"Anything for you, Wendy, darling."
