"the day the child come of age which is 18 years old, the child will show the sign of the real truth. The child will resembles me even more. Until then, the child is more like you"

"you sure about that? I mean, look, the baby looked more like you" he chuckled

"I love you" she smiled

That was the last time he saw her.

Chapter 1: A new beginning

He sighed when finally stepped his barefooted leg on the same island he had been before. When his body completely off the boat, he gestured his hand toward his now a teenage child. She slapped his hand, "I can manage" she said, "sure thing kiddo" She jumped off the boat and landed on the sand alongside him. Her feet slightly touched the cold blue water sea.

They both grabbed their bags and hanged them over their shoulders. He changed his gaze towards the far distance of the ocean. The smells entered his nostrils as he breathed them in. this place was the first time he fell in love. The first time everything felt so right. The first time he held onto those small hands. He closed his eyes as the morning breeze went through his hair and the cold feeling he felt on the tip of his feet's thumb.

"how much longer?" a female groans were heard behind him, he turned his head and saw her resting her palms on her hips with two bags hanged on both shoulders waiting for him with a frown on her face.

"oh" he curved another smile, "sorry Kiddo" he stepped out of the salty water and rushed to her. He stopped when he arrived in front of her and put on his slipper on. He flinched a little and shook his right foot to get rid of the sand sticking on it. He then proceeded doing the same to his left foot. He watched as his daughter took out a tissue paper from her baggy pants pocket and kneeled down to wipe off the leftover sands, "thanks kiddo"

"whatever" when she's done, she stood and face him before clenching the used tissue paper and returned it into her pocket, "let's just head to grandpup, I'm fucking exhausted"

He laughed in amusement, don't blame him, she learnt those words herself, "okay, come on" they both walked deeper into the island, "you know, maybe you should take a walk around here, I mean look! This island is as beautiful and as clean as the old days"

"sure" She didn't make any eye contact when he turned to face her, her eyebrows furrowed, "I guessed mom must've loved this place too?"

His wide smile curved into a small one, memories of his younger days came running across his eyes, "yeah"

Few minutes felt like a few seconds when they reached in front of a two storey beach house. He knocked on the door three times. The door gave out a squeeeeeeeek before finally opened revealing a brown haired old man. Well, not very old. The grandfather is quite tall and muscular. Only that his hair had more white than brown. He had more wrinkles on his skin than last time she met him, "Masaru" he called his son's name, "hey dad" they hugged each other. She could see that the old man was tanner than her old man when their skin touched.

He released Masaru before reaching her arm and gave her a hug too which she didn't favour much, now it became a great difference between their skin tone, her skin is waaaaaay more fair than his. He broke the hug still holding both palms on her shoulders, "look at you katsuki, you've grown, look even more like Mitsuki"

She grunted hearing that name. yes, Mitsuki. She knew the name but not the person, not even a picture. Geez, what did dad do when they dated? Not a single picture? , "should I say thank you?"

Both male froze before breaking into laughter, "come on in my family" the grandfather opened the door wider to let them in and took both bags from the only grandchild, "woman shouldn't carry such heavy bags, Masaru you shouldn't let her"

"it's okay grandpup, I asked"

"I'll take you to your room"

"sure"

They both walked to the second floor and straight to the third room from the left. He did talk about things that didn't exactly enter her brain at all. She just kept her hands in her pockets and only followed him absentmindedly. He opened the white door in front, "there ya go"

She gazed down to notice a rectangular orange and white rug carpet laying covering most of the white coloured wooden floor. She turned and saw a single bed with orange sheet settled nicely on the right side of the room. Two book shelves half filled with book mostly titled 'the ocean' on the left side of the bed. The space between the shelves and a studying table with a chair as a set was a sliding door that leads to a balcony of a full view for her to enjoy the blue and green colours of both sea and trees. There was a simple white wardrobe on the left side of the room and her walls were painted in light blue paint. It was a simple room compared to what she had back home, but, she love it, simple.

"ya like it? I redecorate it for you?" the grandfather said. She snapped out and saw he was already inside and settled her bags on her bed before he walked to her again. She didn't respond, he scratched his head awkwardly, "okay, I'll leave you then" before he walked far enough, a body slumped onto his back and a pair of arm hugged around his waist, "katsuki?" he turned his head only seeing her spiky waist long hair.

"arigatou, I love it , you've done so much" she loosened her hug when he turned.

He smiled and pat her head, "I'll do anything for you, you are my grand daughter anyway" he stopped and walked downstairs, "come later to have snack!" he shouted.

Katsuki returned to her new room and sat on her bag unpacking her things. Starting with her clothes, she organized her wardrobe properly. She arranged her sport shoes, her heels (used for important event only), her extra slippers and her converse shoes on the left side of the wardrobe on a folded newspapers. Next, she took out her personal treasures such as her alarm clock, her phone charger, her camera, her laptop, files from her last semester, and the real treasure was her own handmade wind chain. She made the wind chain using bamboos from her past mount climbing activity. She might have to ask her grandpup to nailed a nail on the top of the sliding door to hang it later. Katsuki put down the wind chain and took out her mount climbing set and kept it under her bed. She then held her hips standing in front of the sliding door staring at the blue sea. Damn it, she can't swim! Oh look a mountain, glad she could climb. This year's summer holiday wouldn't be so bad after all.

When she decided that she's done with unpacking, Katsuki walked downstairs since she couldn't resist snacks anyways. But then, a new face caught her eyes. It was a slim boy with straight black hair and pointy nose. He revealed all his perfectly white and arranged teeth talking and laughing with her dad and her grandpup on the couches at the living room. She walked to them and they stopped, "katsuki come, I wanted to introduce you to someone"

She nodded and walked to them, "this is Sero hanta" her grandpup said, "Sero, this is the granddaughter I've talked about before, Bakugou Katsuki"

The boy stood and laid out his hand, "nice to meet you bakugou"

She hesitated but shook hands with him instead, "you too"

They parted and sat on the couch. Masaru gave a cup of tea to his daughter, "here ya go" she accepted it and also took a cookie to shove if into her mouth, "homemade?" she asked.

"yep!"

"now you know where did your cooking skills came from" Masaru answered an unquestioned question.

She shrugged and continued to enjoy the snack, "hey sero, can you take Katsuki here for a walk? She's not used to this island yet" her grandpup said while patting her back.

"oh sure, no prob" sero turned to the girl, "when? I'm free anytime-" he froze, "I mean, I'm available anytime" he let out an awkward laugh and scratched his neck awkwardly slightly blushing.

Bakugou finished her cookie and sipped out the last drop of her tea before making eye contact with him, "now is okay? I'm bored as hell"

Sero gasped of her language before let out a giggle, this is gonna be funny, "sure"

"nice" she said, still didn't smile and kept a straight face from the start. The teenagers stood and head to the door, "I'll come back later dad" she waved.

"sooner is better" her dad answered back a slight worry not trusting the new boy much. He continued to watch even after the door was closed and even stood to the balcony to watch her.

His father stood with a small chuckle, "hey, no worries, Sero is a good boy, besides, Katsuki took martial art class, am I right? She's gonna be fine"

"it's true" Masaru exclaimed sadly, "I just wish to treasure a few more moments we had left with her…she had come of age, she will have to leave soon"The granddad understood his son's feeling. But, they know that that day will come. Sooner or later.

"I'm surprised that you didn't know this island yet" Sero broke their silent walk. He realized that she had a frown on her face and didn't seem easy to take it off. He would like to see this girl without those mask on.

She kept her hands in her pockets as she felt the sun light touched her skin. It suddenly became uncomfortable, "never fucking came here before. Usually grandpup who came to us".

"came here for a holiday?" he asked again.

She unfolded her folded blue hoodie arm and unzipped it revealing the white t-shirt underneath, she had to get use to the sun then, "no, my dad's business back home became fucking broke. The bank took our house. So, pup told us to stay" she took out a handkerchief and wiped out her sweaty forehead.

Sero saw that, "hey, not used to the heat? Come" she took her by the arm and they walked further from the sand into under the shadows of the trees, "how do ya feel?"

"better" she answered, "I'll face it for now"

"huh? I thought, you're staying"

She turned to him, eyebrows furrowed but no sign of anger, "no, I went to college and it was summer. My dad is staying of course, dad said he wanted to join grandpup fucking fish business"

Sero snorted, "sound like a fishy business" but he stopped when he realized that she was glaring at him, "it's just a pun!" he raised his hand in defend.

"ugh fucking whatever, soybean face" she nicknamed him as she continued her walk.

"ugh?" he jogged after her, "thanks for the nickname?"

"what about you?" she asked him, he gave a questioned look, she sighed "didn't you go to college?" His wide smile shrunk to a smaller one, but still smiling while lowering his gaze, Bakugou realized that he's uncomfortable about it "you don't fucking have to-"

"it's okay" he looked to her before looking to the far distance up front, " I didn't go to college. Only until high school" he rested his right palm on the back of his neck, " my life is not exactly lucky, my dad was a fisherman but he didn't do much after he suffered a back pain, my mom was suddenly paralyzed after suffering a stroke" he bit his lips and looked away.

Bakugou felt tensed. She knew that he was uncomfortable talking about his family, "um..hey" she tried, "i…never know who my mom was, dad said she drowned, a day after she gave birth to me" he turned to her shocked, "what?" she asked.

"no…I'm sorry, I didn't know"

"what for? Not your fault"
