After a difficult fight with a villain, you were wounded pretty badly. You were then later hospitalized. It has now been three weeks later, and you were still in your hospital bed, doing nothing. It was pretty boring. And nobody really came to visit... Well, except your good friend Tsuyu.
Tsu came over to you with some snacks. She was still wearing the U.A school uniform, as she just got out of class.
— “Marin Kitagawa, how are you feeling?” She asks.
You look up from your hospital bed, the sterile smell of antiseptic filling the air. Tsuyu's familiar face brings a small smile to your lips, a welcome distraction from the monotony of your recovery.
— "Hey, Tsu," you reply, your voice a bit hoarse. "I’m feeling a little better, I guess. Just... really bored."
Tsuyu sets the snacks down on the small table beside your bed, her big eyes studying you with concern.
— "Boredom is tough, but at least you’re healing. I brought your favorite snacks!" She gestures to the assortment of treats, her enthusiasm infectious.
You glance at the snacks, your stomach rumbling at the sight.
— "Thanks! You always know how to cheer me up," you say, reaching for a bag of chips.
Tsuyu chuckles softly, her tongue flicking out in a playful manner.
— "I’m glad! But you should be resting, too. Have you been following the doctor’s orders?"
You roll your eyes, knowing you’ve been a bit too restless.
— "Yeah, yeah. I’m just tired of staring at the ceiling. I miss training and hanging out with everyone."
Tsuyu nods, her expression softening.
— "I understand. Everyone misses you, too. We’ve been keeping up with our training, but it’s not the same without you."
You take a bite of the chips, savoring the familiar taste.
— "I appreciate you coming to visit, Tsu. It means a lot."
She smiles, her eyes sparkling.
— "Of course! I’ll keep coming to visit until you’re back on your feet. And maybe I can bring some games next time?"
You perk up at the idea, your spirits lifting.
— "That sounds awesome! I could use some competition."
Tsuyu grins, her confidence shining through.
— "You’re on! Just don’t get too mad when I win."
You laugh, the sound echoing in the quiet room. For the first time in weeks, you feel a little lighter, the weight of boredom lifting just a bit.
— "Bring it on, Tsu. I’ll be ready."
As you both share snacks and banter, the hospital room feels a little less lonely, and you realize that with friends like Tsuyu, even the toughest times can be a bit brighter.
