* After few years it was time for every kid in the village to get prepared for their genin exams...*
boy 1: hey have you heard the genin exams are finally here...
girl 1: yes! I think I'm gonna fail...
*suddenly a scream was heard very loudly... yup we know that scream, it's Naruto... Naruto's scream can be heard pretty loudly across his house...*
Naruto: I'm gonna fail.... I'm gonna fail (catches his hair in frustration)
Kushina: if you have studied earlier , none of this would have happened, you know
Minato: come on now, let's all just be calm and start from the begging...
Naruto: I guess I have no choice...
Kushina: hmm...by the way where's your daughter, I didn't see her all day...
Minato: hmm...great question...
Kushina: oh I swear, if she doesn't do anything rather than studying I'm gonna kill her(her eyes were popping flames...clearly indicating she was angry)
Minato: hey why don't we just calm down for a bit there kushina...😅😅
Naruto: she is in her bedroom...
Kushina: huh in her bedroom, what is she doing there?
Naruto: I don't know she has been there since morning...
Minato: since morning ...hmmm I'm gonna go check on her
Kushina: I'm coming as well...and you young man you better start to memorize those problems before I come down stairs...
*Naruto nods his head shakingly and went back to his studies...both Kushina and Minato went to their daughter's room to check on for their surprise they saw her studying and with her headphones on..*
Minato: woah! she is really studying ...but why the headphones though...
Kushina: oh I bet she is listening to music and pretending to be studying..
Minato: hey princess what are you doing...*there was no response*
kushina: * she was frustrated and she yelled in anger* Mrs. Keerthi Namikaze answer the question??* still there was no response she was quietly doing her work..* is she some kinda alien or something...?
Minato: I don't think so..* he tapped his daughter shoulder..
Keerthi POV:
* As I was studying with my headphones on I felt someone tapping my shoulders..I quickly remove my headphones and turned to my parents sitting in the wheel chair, I was literally confused , did something happen or...worse*
KN: hey what happened?
Kushina: what happened? we called you several times and you didn't answer
KN: oh sorry about that ... I was just preparing for the exams..
Minato: you mean while listening to music...*he raised one of his eyebrows*
KN: oh this! I'm not listening to any music...
Kushina: then why did you put headphones on...huh?
KN: *chuckled* these are noise cancelling headphones...they help me focus in concentrating my studies...
Minato: noise cancelling headphones huh... what does it do...
KN: here try it on...
*Minato took the headphones and put them on..*
Kushina: now what!
KN: hey dad did you not tell mom that you forgot to pick up the trash..
kushina : WAIT WHAT...MINATO, YOU'RE SO DEAD
KN: calm down mom he doesn't hear what your yelling about!
Kushina: huh..*she looked at Minato, he was looking clueless*
Minato:*you signaled your dad to take out the headphones and he did * woah I couldn't hear a thing that you both were talking about..
Kushina: wait what so you didn't hear anything...
Minato: nope ...but princess why do you have it?
KN: well with all my brother's scream I can't really concentrate on my studies so I had to buy it...
Minato: well that explains this*chuckled*
Kushina: but how did you buy this...
KN: I saved my pocket money and bought it like when I had my second unit test in the first year of academy...
Kushina: wait you got this way back then..
KN: yeah I got this in an offer ....buy 1 get 1 one free...
Minato: ooohh...mind if I borrow it someday..
KN: anytime..
Minato: thank you ...* suddenly Naruto's scream was heard*
KN: oh dear ! my ears are definitely gonna burst because of his screams someday..
Minato: guess we'll have to agree on that...
KN: it was also the reason, that I failed my 1st unit test in my first year...
Minato: wait why didn't you-
KN: you didn't listen that's why...now go and help him or else the whole building might shatter...
Kushina: yeah your right...
KN:*you put your headphones and went back to studying*I might go to Kakashi's house this evening...
Kushina: *raised an eyebrow * what for..*no response*
Minato : well she always goes there and besides she can do the studying on her own*
Kushina: *sighs* your right... let's go and teach that monkey a lesson...
KN:*with that they went Naruto and focused on him studying...after a few hours you finished your work and went downstairs* hey I'm going out bye..
Naruto: wait you finished already...
KN: yeah I just need to revise before going to bed and that's all...
Minato: I'm impressed as always..
KN: I'm going now

KN: dad.. you know I studied and still asking me these questions...
Naruto: so you didn't study huh?? well that's an excuse isn't it!
KN: do I look like I'm kidding *you give a stern look to him*
Minato: alright ! that's enough you two, Keerthi answer...
Naruto:*thinking(now she won't tell the answer and dad is gonna scold her ) a mischievous grin on his face *
KN: water!
Naruto : *shocked as hell*
Minato : great! you can go now..
