The words hit Shoto with the force of a physical blow, leaving him momentarily breathless as Bakugou's blunt delivery echoes in his mind: 'She left... she was pregnant.' The revelation is a shock of ice water to his system. What he had thought of as a brief, reckless escape from the crushing expectations of his life has evolved into a profound responsibility. He stares down at the crumpled note in his hand, his mismatched eyes clouded with a mixture of shock and determination. The memory of his own father's coldness and absence is a scar that hasn't fully healed, and Shoto vows that the cycle ends here. He takes a slow, grounding breath, steadies his trembling hand, and knocks firmly on the door, bracing himself for whatever awaits him on the other side.
