短い無意味な再会・A short pointless reunion

It was Tuesday night, in Konohagakure during your 2nd day of staying and school finished 5 hours ago.  Aoba had gone back to the manor causing you to be alone– again.

You moved towards the edge of the bed and slipped on your indoor slippers, grabbed and twisted the door knob of your room and walked out, sauntering down the stairs and went in the kitchen. You took out a can of pork and beans then poured some into a bowl you grabbed. Getting some rice and kitchen utensils from the counter/cabinets, you ate.

You suddenly felt eyes on your figure and you whipped your head to the culprit's way in time to see father. "Dad...?"

"Dad...?" They muttered, dropping their spoon.

My lips curved upwards as I bent down and jumped off the window sill I was perched on. "Hello, (Y/N)."  Within a second they punched me. "What were you thinking?! Offering to be a hostage for him! Do you know how worried I was?! How worried mum was?!"

I rubbed the my left cheek which they punched, the pain still lingering there. "Now, now. There's no need to yell," I laughed sheepishly. "I'm fine. I escaped." Tears pricked their eyes until they couldn't hold it anymore and cried. "You were gone for 6 years, dad! That's half my life!"

I blinked in confusion, (Isn't it supposed to be 7.5 years–)

The yelling continued longer than I expected until they finally calmed down. "I'm sorry, I don't know what had gotten into me." (Y/N) bowed and apologized before going to the sink to wash the dishes they used. "I'll be going to sleep,"

A grin appeared on my face. "Don't be bitter, let's do an outdoor activity or play board games." They turn to me and merely blinked, hands coated with bubbles from dish soap, "A short pointless reunion night?" They asked as I nodded.

That night, we spent the whole time chatting about our lives and playing games like pillow fights, dodgeball and so on. We continued on until morning, not knowing it was morning. "So dad," I lift my face from my scroll. "Hm?"

"I found someone that you might need." I tilt my head to the side and asked, "Who?" They seemed hesitant to tell and bit their lip, gathering all their courage and spoke.

"Uchiha Sasuke."

My eyes widened before it was replaced with a proud smile. "Good job, (Y/N)~" I praised her for a moment then left immediately.

You felt remorse for your decision of telling your father about a classmate of yours to be used as a body vessel. But you had to make him proud like how he's always proud for your adopted brother and currently missing older brother.

It was unfair but father and older brother always paid attention and gave you love.. yet mother nor Sou did so. They treated you like a good-for-nothing disgrace.

But you were an independent and strong willed person so you treated them like how they treated you. Which was fair.
And this time, since you wanted your father to be proud, you gathered all sorts of useful information about the young Uchiha boy.

But let's not talk of that matter, let's talk of your life.
